Project Details:
- Client is a giant construction company headquartered in Chicago.
- The project was to create Architectural, Structural & MEP BIM Models for their new upcoming park to be build up in California.
- Scope of work was to provide client BIM Models with LOD-300 for a Public Park
Challenges:
- The client provided us inputs like hand drawn sketches, conceptual sketches, pdf files etc. First thing to do was to understand inputs in different forms through proper & effective client communication.
- The important task was to add on the creativity to the project to give it an excellent architectural look.
- So to build new architectural models & to coordinate it with other disciplines like structural & MEP was difficult sometimes.
Execution:
- The inputs available with us were in the form of hand drawn & conceptual sketches, pdf files, which we were to convert into intelligent BIM models using Revit.
- Next step was to create BIM models with different disciplines like Architectural, Structural & MEP which was successfully accomplished as per client’s requirement in the form of 3D
Revit Models.
- Finally after that we started to look into the coordination between the models, so called Clash
Detection with the help of Navisworks & were successful in scrutinizing all the clashes.
- The build up of architectural objects from concepts helped the client to give it a unique architectural look.
- As same technical team was dedicated for the project, the client was really satisfied for smoother communication & coordination which further reduced overall time & cost as well.
Inputs Received:
- PDF files, hand drawn & conceptual sketches
Outputs Delivered:
- BIM models with following disciplines: Architecture, Structure, MEP
BIM Platform:
- Autodesk Revit Architecture 2012
- Autodesk Revit Structure 2012
- Autodesk Revit MEP 2012
- Autodesk Naviswork 2012
