Coordinated and clash-free architectural and MEP BIM models speed up installation of utilities at national park in the USA

Coordinated and clash-free architectural and MEP BIM models speed up installation of utilities at national park in the USA Banner

Client Profile.

The client is a leading building contractor based in the US with a track record of successful delivery of hundreds of commercial as well as residential global projects.

Business Needs.

The client was working on expansion of garden area and installation of new utility systems for a public park in the US. The project was sensitive since the new installation had to be implemented without disturbing existing mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection systems.

To ensure that the new utility systems were installed in sync with existing systems while fitting seamlessly into the architecture of the garden terrain, the client needed:

  • Architectural BIM models of the terrain at LOD 300 based on CAD drawings of garden
  • Coordinated 3D MEPF BIM models for mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection systems
  • HD rendering of the project for best visualization and effective presentation to authorities

The firm partnered with HitechDigital to carry out this project.

Project Samples.

Challenges.

One of the key challenges of the project was its time sensitivity given the tender deadlines. The HitechDigital team needed to complete the project within a short duration of six weeks trying to navigate the following constraints:

  • Incomplete as-built documentation for park area
  • Need to fit in voluminous mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems through a maze of existing MEP components.

Solution.

HitechDigital’s BIM team delivered a composite package of architectural and MEP BIM solutions models to facilitate harmonious installation of new utility systems in the national park. The deliverables included:

  • An information-rich architectural model at LOD 300 of new garden area
  • HD renderings of the architectural model
  • Revit families of BIM objects for the site
  • Clash-free coordinated 3D MEP model (along with clash detection reports using Navisworks)
Process

Approach.

A team of 10 BIM modelers initially studied input drawings and requirements sent by the client and documented scope of work.
