Use BIM for design modifications!

BIM has been present in the construction industry for the last 30 years and in between these decades many revolutionary changes have been brought by this technology. It is optimized by architects and engineers to represent the physical and functional characteristics of the building in a digital form. When a construction project is executed with the assistance of BIM, the first and most important step is to create intelligent 3D models for the representation of different building systems such as architecture, structure and MEP.
First of all an architectural framework is designed by an architect for the building in question and later on other systems such as structural framework and MEP systems are designed by Structural Engineers and MEP engineers respectively. Structural framework and MEP systems are designed to support the architectural design of the building and hence architect’s specifications are taken seriously by both structural and MEP engineers for designing their models.
So 3D models, which are developed by utilizing Revit software represent the final design of the building systems. Hence it is important that multidiscipline models are developed accurately as per architect’s specifications.
The good thing is that, Revit has unique features and tools which help the design development teams to integrate and collaborate with each other when  design of building systems  are developed.
By collaborating with each other, design team, which include design coordinators, BIM modelers and sometimes architects and engineers high quality building design is created or developed. Design details are shared between the team members and that helps them in improving the design.
 With the assistance of Revit the whole design team can collaborate on the same model and hence modifications can also be made on that model by individuals. But it all depends upon the design requirement. If in case one of the design members feels that certain alterations can help in buildings performance it is applied in the model.

In this way various, new design ideas are discovered by the design team which are successfully implemented in the design.

How to Implement BIM in Medium-Sized Companies Effectively?

BIM has emerged as a remarkable new technology for structural and architectural building designs for its implementation in medium-sized companies. Before application of Building Information Modeling for medium size companies several queries and challenges occurs regarding the technical expertise of the employees, delay in projects as a consequence of introduction of newer technology and rising costs. These kinds of query and troubles pertaining to BIM implementation may be simply fixed by carrying out basic training and efficient planning of application of BIM Services. Hence with the aid of appropriate planning and minimal preparation BIM can be effortlessly and successfully implemented into medium-sized companies without significant intervention and disturbance. • Commencing with BIM: Application of BIM Services in medium size company can be referred as Process modification phenomenon. The employees of company ought to be equally associated with the decision making process o...

Photo-realistic floor plans crucial for clients understand of the building

Well, here comes a suggestion for all those people who are willing to buy or purchase their own house, ‘don’t buy it without checking the rendered floor plans’ since they are going to assist you in getting a far better understanding of the house. I would not mind saying fool to those people who go ahead with the buying plans without properly visualizing the property. Guys don’t fall victims of such instances, it is difficult to pay the price later on because once you have already bought the house there is hardly anything you can do about it. That means you have to stick to the house until and unless you again become capable of purchasing a new one. One can be considered an intelligent buyer only when he or she makes the best use of all the possible services available to him or her. When it comes to investing your money on property, please assure yourself that all the important measures have been taken by you. 3D Floor Plan Avail yourself with a photo-realistic floor plan: N...

MEP systems provide the momentum to the building

Mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems are incredibly crucial for any sort of building, be it residential, commercial or industrial.   The design for these systems is prepared by MEP modelers who have vast experience in the execution of BIM modeling services.  They develop design for MEP systems in Revit MEP software which is quintessentially dedicated to the design development of MEP systems only. MEP systems consist of HVAC systems, electrical systems and plumbing systems. Detailed explanation of these systems is following  HVAC Systems These systems comprise of heating, ventilation, air conditioning systems. HVAC systems have to be accurate since they are responsible for the circulation of various resources. The design of these systems must be created in a way that they reach to every part of the building where they supposed to reach. They are utilized in all kinds of building projects as well as non building projects such as in...
