MEPF System in a Building - Viability for Utility!

Once the architectural and structural aspects of a building are outlined, the ancillary systems are drawn. These include the mechanical system, electrical system, plumbing system and the fire-fighting system. Though ancillary, their importance cannot be denied. Imagine a broken or messed up sewage disposal system, or short circuited electrical wires, or even worse, a gutter line mixed with the fresh water line! If the structure holds the building intact and the architecture functionalizes and beautifies it, the MEPF systems make it viable for utility. They have to be cautiously designed to accommodate in the space allocated for it, to its fitting and maximum functioning.

BIM is now a far and wide practice. MEP BIM Services help place the MEP&F systems in spot in the architecture of the building. The blueprint of these systems is defined and they are modeled in 3D in BIM supportive software. The virtual 3D representation helps understand the system better and better analyze the design for its effectiveness and usefulness. The individual systems should suffice in terms of their respective design feasibilities and connections. These models are then integrated so as to establish the overall design suitability. The integration helps to identify if there are any collisions among the elements of the systems and if they fit together well, as anticipated when they were designed. Specialized software for clash resolution in BIM such as Navisworks proves to be very efficient at this. The clashes as detected are settled in the models and we have a perfectly coordinated MEP&F system. The shop drawings and BOMS generated from these act to conduct successful installation of the mechanical hvac, electrical, plumbing and fire- fighting systems in the building. Thus, no more messed up pipes and wires! And not to forget the scheduling and costing data BIM endows with, and the green facet of it – energy analysis!

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...
