BIM’s ascendancy over AEC industry is expanding fast

Building Information Modeling is also referred or addressed as Virtual Design and Construction by Architectural, Engineering and Construction industry professionals. This is such as amazing and constructive technology which helps AEC professionals in defining the physical and functional characteristics of a building. It can never be disowned and renounced that BIM is subjugating and dominating the industry when it comes to producing desired or intended outcomes in context of project execution.

A highly collaborative and integrated design approach is facilitated by BIM which includes all the paramount building stakeholders during the design development. These crucial building stakeholders include architects, engineers, contractors and other design professionals. This integrated and non-segregated approach proves totally cardinal and paramount for design development team because exceptional results are obtained after that in terms of design explorations and observations.

In other words collaboration, amalgamation and unification of design development team along with the remaining project stakeholders helps in confronting and approaching new design ideas or making powerful and effective design decisions. Hence there is no denying the fact that highly cheaper preconstruction engineering solutions are delivered to the potential clients with the assistance of BIM technology.

Since architects and engineers along with other design technicians or designers can easily adopt distinctive design options BIM eventually helps them in developing cost-effective design. Since BIM facilitates virtual construction it helps the project execution team as well as owners by clearly stating design related complications at a very early stage. The really helps them in sorting out the design related complications and issues in minimal cost which again helps in saving potential expenditures.

Precise and accurate material takeoffs that are obtained and acquired by construction industry professionals with the assistance of Building Information Models, successfully assists them in ordering the materials as per project requirement. When materials are ordered as per construction requirements the question of wastage doesn’t even arise.

This ultimately means that BIM helps in saving project cost by providing precise preconstruction engineering solutions and by reducing the misuse of materials at the time of actual construction.

A brief account on BIM’s expansion over the years

Building Information Modeling has a dramatic history when it comes to its expansion in the landscapes of AEC industry over the years. BIM which is also known as Virtual Design and Construction has a dominant presence in AEC industry because of the fact that is has the potential to realize project outcomes and can control them significantly as per requirement. In short design and construction professionals can attain superior control over project outcomes by analyzing multidiscipline models. Well, Building Information Modeling evolved as a concept some four decades ago but it was not practiced by AEC professionals in the industry at that time. For approximately ten years since it first appeared in the journal, the term ‘BIM’ used to be seen only in research papers. BIM as a technology and a process started to be implemented in construction projects some thirty years ago. So once AEC professionals started using BIM in construction they never looked back to their sluggish performanc...

Tackle positioning issues favorably by sharing coordinates!

Tackling file positioning issues rationally and conveniently remains major problem for Revit users when they link additional file in their model or project. Multiple discrepancies are confronted by Revit users in terms of geometrical positioning of linked files comparative to host model. For example if an MEP engineer working on his model in Revit MEP wants to acquire a thorough understanding of  structural model developed in Revit structure by structural engineer he has to link the model. So when MEP engineer links a structural model in his MEP model, Revit spontaneously displays and alert informing users that linked model does not acquire the same coordinate system as host model. And since they do not share the same coordinate systems, Revit will automatically return back to center-to-center positioning. The alert confronted by users must be cancelled by them at this point of time because positioning associated issues can only be tackled once the file is imported in the mod...

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...
