BIM: A necessary tool for MEP Engineers

Image
By
BIM or Building Information Modeling is a necessary tool for MEP engineers. MEP designers and engineers have to face a lot of trouble during the designing phase, as it demands coordination of MEP components with other structural and architectural elements. BIM serves as an analysis tool for building design.

Now let’s understand how BIM helps MEP engineers in several different categories:

  • Design and Modeling:
BIM is used by MEP designers and engineers to integrate every element of designing and modeling. 2D or 3D models are generated for a identifying the loopholes in the design and irradicating it beforehand. This will minimize the cost or rework.

  • Fabrication Drawing:
Fabrication drawing or MEP BIM Shop Drawing is used by MEP contractors for HVAC (heating and cooling) systems. With the aid of this tool, contractors can picturize a detailed installation layout for a smooth and hurdle free installation. With the help of BIM, 4D drawings are prepared for effective scheduling of the project. It also offers 5D models for adopting cost-effective strategies to a project. 



  • Documentation:
With the help of BIM, everything remains synchronized in one place. The information regarding a project is stored in a single database. The information can then be updated by exchanging to and from the database. Thus, documentation of the project becomes easy as all the information is centralized. There is no need to maintain a heap of papers for maintaining documents. Also BIM helps in converting 3D models to 2D for effective documentation.

  • Sustainable Design:
MEP designers have to take care of whether the designs meet the requirements of sustainability. BIM helps MEP engineers to develop sustainable designs. BIM also facilitates building maintenance and performance.

The above list can be combined to form following three areas where BIM plays its rolle for MEP engineers:

   • Visualisation: BIM helps creating 3D walkthroughs and animations to serve as an effective tool for visualization.
     
   • Coordination: BIM helps to coordinate different design models so as to reduce clashes. Hence, achieving coordination between different models becomes easy.  
     
   • Collaboration: BIM brings the project designers, engineers, and contractors together to reduce redundancies and provide consistency with the information.

Level Of Development (LOD) - Biggest Supporting Tools in BIM Services

By
If you are venturing into the world of construction, you will come across two terms. One is Building Information Modeling (BIM) services and the second is Level Of Development ( LOD ) Services . The complete process of LOD BIM is easy and if followed with proper and accurate stages those are defined, the result for the project will be the best and as per the expectations. Hence, with this said in this blog the complete topic is to understand what are LOD Services and its stages which helps the constructors to create a better future tomorrow in the form building . The Level Of Development Definition is easy to understand and simple to implement the same in BIM. The term is defined and described as the precision of a model. This detail gives us the actual look of the model as a when created and drafted. In other words, it is said that it will give you specific shapes and measurable locations in the model. The service of LOD was published by the American Institute of Ar

Statue of Unity : An example of excellent Structural Engineering

By
Statue of Unity is the world’s tallest statue honoring the ‘Iron Man of India’, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. The 182-meter tall statue is an excellent example of structural engineering and steel detailing. It is a colossal building facing the Sardar Sarovar Dam on the Narmada river. This iron and steel statue is listed among the world’s 49 most outstanding projects by the Institution of Structural Engineers (IstructE). Statue of unity was Rs 2,989 crore project, which used a huge amount of raw material including: 210,000 cu.m. of cement concrete poured into the statue 18,500 tonnes of reinforced steel 6,500 tonnes of structural steel 1,700 tonnes of bronze 1,850 tonnes of bronze cladding made up of some 565 macro & 6,000 micro panels Process of construction Statue of Unity has three layers. The innermost layer has two towers made of reinforced cement concrete. The towers have risen to the chest area. The steel frames are made on the concrete towers that form the second
