MEP Coordination Service is the Prerequisites for Error-Free Design

The processes which are undertaken for building construction are innumerable. From a concept to real building, it takes lots of efforts and lots of time. It requires constant observation to construct sustainable building that last since ages.

There are certain services which cannot be ignored while building construction and MEP coordination services are one of those services which must be outsourced while building construction. The motive to outsource MEP services is that in-house MEP design development proves very expensive. Apart from that, the expert professionals are needed to produce design and models which are hard to get on board even after investing huge fund.

The professionals who participate in MEP BIM Services design development procedure are MEP engineers, drafters and modelers. The inception of procedure took place with the study of the building structure and study is conducted by MEP engineers. They get the idea regarding the necessary aspects and by keeping those aspects in mind they create a rough design. This rough design becomes the reference material for design professionals. MEP engineers pass on the specifications and details to those drafters and modelers and they produce the design and models as per the specifications.

In the beginning, the systems of mechanical, electrical and plumbing disciplines are developed separately since all of those systems are immensely complicated. Once individual designs are created, they get synchronized all those systems which is known as coordination process and it reflects the clashing points amongst the systems.

Clash detection process is performed to eradicate those clashing points. Coordinated drawings are extracted from final models which are reviewed and modified until and unless the drawings become completely error free.

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...

Revit component families: ‘Cut with void when loaded’ a crucial parameter!

I am sure you must be thinking, what is this ‘cut with void When Loaded’ parameter? So for your clarification, let me tell you that it is one of the most important parameter that is used by BIM modelers or technicians while they create custom components in Revit. When it comes to creating custom components in Revit they are developed by optimizing Revit’s Family Editor. Family template files which are Model-based have the luxury of containing ‘Cut with Void When Loaded’ parameter. In other words families created with void in the Family Editor of Revit, contain this parameter. ‘Cut with Void When Loaded’ parameter is used by Revit users for cutting solid architectural and structural   elements such as floors, ceilings, roofs, Generic Models and structural columns etc. in the project environment.     Let me just give you an example how this parameter functions in Revit. What actually happens is that, there should be solid architectural or structural elements i...

BIM must be credited for the metamorphosis of AEC industry!

The metamorphosis of conventional construction methods into innovative methods must be largely credited to BIM technology. Building Information Modeling is a highly productive technology for AEC professionals since it has huge magnitude and potential to handle all types of complications associated to construction projects.  Initially when BIM technology was not prevalent in the landscapes of Architecture Engineering and Construction industry, accomplishment of construction projects was challenging or demanding task for AEC professionals.  During that time architects and engineers used to perform most the construction related activities directly at the proposed location and hence they used to meet a lot of design problems at the time of final construction. And because of this AEC professionals used to face a large amount of rework situations which largely used to increase the project cost.   Rework is not only accountable for increasing project cost but it also resul...
