BIM: A necessary tool for MEP Engineers

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 effe
