Some of the common benefits of BIM which encourages productivity

Before I go ahead with counting the benefits of Building Information Modeling, let me make it clear that BIM is all about enhancing productivity and nothing else. Be it AEC professionals or clients they are all benefited with the implementation of MEP BIM Services that helps in developing digital models for architecture, structure and MEP. BIM models delivered to clients during early design phase help in providing detailed information about design, construction, sustainability, operations and maintenance etc. Information concerning different phases of construction can be optimized by design and construction professionals for obtaining effective solutions during final construction.




During the design phase BIM Modeling services can help in developing effective design as it facilitates coordination and collaboration. All design members can share a same model and can improve its quality by working collaboratively towards its development. Collaborative work culture ensures that all the building stakeholders work effectively towards achieving greater productivity.

As Revit users can make use of different design alternatives it helps them in developing high performing, cost effective and sustainable building design. By using cutting edge technology, BIM users can even reduce the expected project cost as modeling tools optimized during preconstruction can provide cost effective solutions. Building stakeholders (architects, engineers, owners and contractors) can definitely obtain the outcome according to their choice as they can make a thorough analysis of the design for speculating outcomes. If in case by making modifications in the design project outcomes can be controlled, then AEC professionals go ahead with that. In other words by making modifications in the design AEC professionals try to improve project productivity. By developing 3D models in virtual environment, they can successfully analyze the results of utilizing complex tools, techniques and procedures during actual construction. That means all kinds of project complications that can be faced during actual construction are identified by utilizing Virtual Design and Construction. 


A significant amount of reduction can be done in the wastage of materials, resources and money by visualizing project outcomes much ahead.  By making best use of quantity takeoffs, material wastage can be controlled by AEC professionals.  Limited amount of materials can be ordered for controlling wastage.

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...
