A short exposition on the development of multidisciplinary 3D models!

The concept of developing 3D virtual models for the purpose of executing a building project was not there for long instead it is a new trend that have been optimized by AEC professionals for streamlining building activities or methods.  Until BIM’s presence in the industry CAD software served the purpose of developing models. But modeling process was soon dominated by BIM software such as Revit in context of construction industry. Huge amount of information and data is needed by BIM modelers for developing multidiscipline 3D models. In other words design data or information is required by the modelers of service providing company for the execution of modeling services.

Be it architectural, structural or MEP model, they are all developed on the basis of the design developed by relevant engineers. On the other hand multidiscipline 3D models are created on the basis of design created by architect, structural engineer or MEP engineers. So the information related to the design is always present in the CAD drawings which are developed by the technicians at the time of drafting process. In other words execution of architectural, structural and MEP drafting is very crucial prior to the execution of modeling services since relevant drafting documents are used for reference purpose during modeling.

So it is important for the modelers of the service providing company that they have all the necessary drafting documents with them while they develop 3D models. While working on a Revit modeling project CAD files are generally linked by the modelers in their current project for extracting the information. For example while making 3D floor plans in Revit it is important for modelers to have all the CAD floor plan drawings with them which when linked to the project help in obtaining information.


So in this way more than one CAD file is linked by the modelers to their current project for developing effective models. It’s not just the CAD drawings that are used for getting information however thing like PDF and other external sources are optimized by BIM modelers for developing precise 3D models in BIM software.

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...
