Demand for engineering outsourcing services is increasing drastically

In the contemporary period preconstruction engineering services are tremendously outsourced by construction companies and AEC firms from offshore countries. Outsourcing engineering services such as designing, drafting and modeling services for building projects was far from reality a few decades back. Nobody could think of constructing a building by hiring engineering services from a distant country. But all this is an unquestionable reality today, wherein effective buildings are constructed by architects and engineers with the assistance of outsourced engineering services.

This unbelievable thing is a reality today only because of technological advancements that have been experienced by the world in the last few decades. Since the time Architecture, Engineering and Construction industry has started to experiment with technology in terms of simplifying project execution it started to touch new heights. Adoption of CAD technology wherein computer software has been used by design and construction professionals for developing construction drawings has opened a platform for outsourcing engineering services. Construction drawings which are now developed in digital forms with the support of CAD software such as AutoCAD can be easily outsourced by service providing companies to clients across the world. Digital drawings or 2D CAD drawings can be conveniently transferred from one country to another with the assistance of internet. That means drawings can be electronically transferred to clients within the fraction of seconds once they are competed by outsourcing companies. The speed at which drawings can be delivered to clients remains one of the important features of outsourcing services. 

Apart from CAD services BIM services are also outsourced by engineering design firms. Some of the BIM services which are in high demand include BIM modeling services for architecture, structure and MEP disciplines of the building, Clash detection services and BIM coordination services.  Apart from these services BIM energy modeling services are also gaining momentum.

BIM services outsourced by the clients help them in streamlining construction process which eventually accounts for seamless construction. Since out sourcing services are received by clients in highly cost effective rates their demand is continuously increasing. Engineering services are always delivered to clients within strict deadlines with high precision.

Since there are many advantages of outsourcing services to the clients their demand is multiplying day by day.

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...

Determine the size of your family according to your project requirement in Revit!

Revit is considered the best choice by architects, engineers, BIM modelers and technicians working in AEC industry for creating families. Families are basically used by BIM modelers while executing Revit modeling services. That makes Revit and Revit modeling services an integral part of construction project execution. Family size matters a lot when it comes to designing a building. In Revit technicians have the luxury to control family size as per the requirement of their project. If in case a smaller size door is required for one of the rooms in the building it can be easily created by using the Family Editor tool of Revit. Revit Family Editor has vital features for developing custom families. The Family size can be controlled by BIM modelers by assigning required dimensions for the family.   In other words the geometry of the family can be easily controlled by assigning parameters in Revit. Take an example of door family; it’s up to Revit modelers what dimensions they want ...

Structural drawings: What is the role of Revit structure and Tekla Structure in their development?

Among all kinds of construction drawings it is really difficult to develop structural drawings as they are of highly complex nature. For developing strong and durable structural framework, the first step is to develop high quality structural drawings which can effectively describe structural design.  For the comprehensive understanding of structural design numerous kinds of technical drawings which may include detailed sketches, plans and working drawings etc have to be developed by drafters and detailers on the instructions of structural engineers.   In this blog I would like to focus on the development of Steel fabrication drawings and erection drawings which are created by steel detailers when they execute Structural Steel Detailing Services with the support of Revit structure or Tekla Structure.    Both Revit structure and Tekla structure are most widely used software packages which are utilized by steel detailers for the development of d...
