BIM provides practical solutions to all construction problems

Building Information Modeling is both a process and technology that makes use of effective methodology for accomplishing construction projects. Development of 3D models is the most imperative part of this innovate methodology which focuses on effective planning and execution. BIM technology is thoroughly accountable for developing reliable digital models which represent the design of multiple building disciplines. As information accommodated in these building models is digital this can be effectively passed electronically from one stakeholder to another. The building design software that is employed by design and construction professionals in their development is Revit. Revit is available for architects, structural engineers and MEP engineers in the form of Revit architecture, Revit structure and Revit MEP.

BIM modeling tools are the greatest blessing for design and construction professionals so far as they can effectively develop productive designs for different building disciplines and coordinate the information among each other with their assistance. This digital depiction of building disciplines help construction professionals and building stakeholders to analyze them successfully and then come up with effective design decisions. Effective decisions concerning project management are also taken based on the information available in these models.

Be it the construction schedules, 4D simulation videos, material takeoffs, bill of materials or right cost estimates all of them can be generated by design and construction professionals by using BIM models. Construction drawings which are unquestionably the most important part of construction projects can also be generated from BIM models. Architectural model can be used by design and construction professionals for extracting precise architectural drawings and similarly structural and MEP models can also be used for extracting drawings concerning these disciplines.

When it comes to sorting out issues related to existence of clashes between these models clash detection process is executed by AEC professionals. Once this process is accomplished there remains no chance of existence of errors in architectural, structural and MEP models. If drawings are extracted from models after the execution of clash detection process no further changes are required in the drawings and if these drawings are used by construction professionals during actual construction the process proceeds smoothly.

BIM Execution Plan and Its Importance for Construction Companies

Image
Overview The advent of BIM Modeling into the construction industry has prevailed the implementation of BIM Execution Plan to enhance the right flow of work to execute the project successfully. It can be analysis and execution during various phases of the project. What is BIM Execution Plan? BIM Execution Plan is a complex and detailed document that helps the project team to identify and execute the role of BIM in various phases of construction in the project. BEP needs to be accurate to make the teams keep on track by focusing on details, saving on time and reduces rework. BEP is primarily used when there is a higher level of complexity and project size is huge. It lays an overall plan with details as to how the process will be executed. It is the process of creating a digital model of building or structures to aid collaboration among people involved in the project. BEP Comprises of type of information as followed: •     How to create data in BIM fil...

An Introduction of 4D BIM Techniques

Image
Overview Construction scheduling in project management is about recording project benchmarks, outputs, start and end date of a predetermined building project. 4D BIM that caters to Construction Scheduling is also known as Construction sequencing. It includes project drafting and project extraction arrangement for every project management. Construction Scheduling is vital for the construction as labor force, equipment and other related activities require effective organizing and scheduling of construction activities. It helps in knowing the time to accomplish the project and streamline the cost estimation factor for all the construction professionals. Construction scheduling techniques of projects Several techniques help the contractor to keep construction scheduling of the project. Aiding in project requirement assessment and overcome challenges of the project schedule. Bar Charts: It is considered as one of the most common technique to generate construction schedul...

BIM modeling services: Which software solutions can be used for developing 3D parametric models?

Building Information Modeling technology is closely related to the development of 3D parametric models for architecture, structure and MEP, which are effectively packed with all the essential information pertaining to design and construction. Building Information Modeling services have become the cardinal requirement for architects and engineers when it comes to the flawless execution of building projects.  Building Information Modeling services are not only important for design and construction professionals but also for building owners, construction managers and fabricators etc.  BIM is the process of developing the entire building in virtual world through high-end Building Information Modeling applications like Revit Architecture, Revit Structure and Revit MEP. All these BIM applications are used for developing the entire building in 3D. Actually the design of every building discipline is separately represented through 3D parametric models which are generat...
