What kinds of drawings form a part of construction drawings?

‘Construction drawings’ is an umbrella word for all kinds of engineering and architectural drawings which are used by AEC professionals for constructing a building. All these constriction drawings are generated by architects and engineers but when it comes to their drafting technicians of service providing company are responsible for it. In other words construction drawings are developed by the CAD drafters of service providing company with the assistance of architect, structural engineer, mechanical engineer, electrical engineer and plumbing engineer.

In other words constriction drawings include all kinds of architectural, structural and MEP drawings that are generated during the drafting phase of the project. These drawings are highly mandatory for architects and engineers for referring important details regarding multidiscipline building systems. All kinds of shop drawings such as architectural shop drawings, structural shop drawings and MEP shop drawings are generated by the AEC professionals so that detailed information can be gathered regarding the elements of multidiscipline building systems.

Architectural drawings such as site plans, floor plans, sections, elevations etc are optimized by architect and architectural BIM modelers. However structural drawings such as structural shop drawings and erection drawings are required for the construction of structural framework of the building. Similarly MEP drawings which include mechanical drawings, electrical drawings and plumbing drawings are crucial for the development of MEP systems of the building.

It is highly important that all these drawings are generated with extreme precision because when it comes to on site construction instead of models construction drawings are utilized by architects and engineers. And that is the reason these drawings are always generated with the assistance of a service providing company which generates them with utmost precisions after optimizing architect’s and engineer’s specifications.

So be it architectural, structural and MEP drawings when they are developed by the technicians of the service providing company specifications provided by architect and engineers are considered very seriously.


So with the assistance of accurate construction drawings effective buildings are constructed by architects and engineers on the proposed construction location.

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...
