The engineering contracting firm needed coordinated MEPF models with accurate shop drawings for a hospital project. For this, they partnered with Hitech CADD Services to get:
Clash free and coordinated MEPF models
Model based- shop drawings for mechanical, plumbing as well as fire protection systems
Shop, spool, module, schematic drawings and builders works drawings for fabrication and pre-manufacturing of MEP components.
Challenges
Uncoordinated markup drawings and basic 2D drawings provided as input
Short time-frame to produce deliverables
Our Solutions & Approach
Created clash free and coordinated MEPF models with accurate shop drawings for hospital project in Ireland.
The team of MEP modeling experts at Hitech CADD Services delivered a set of coordinated and clash-free MEPF models with precise shop drawings, spool, schematic and module drawings for the MEPF component installation as required. They ensured that the project met the quality benchmarks and the project was delivered within the stipulated timeline.
3D MEP coordinated corridor section model
The team of BIM experts at Hitech CADD Services first analyzed the inputs received by the client- mark-up drawings and 2D basic drawings of the MEPF disciplines
They then created clash free and coordinated HVAC, plumbing, fire protection models using Revit. These models were detailed with the required information of the pipe fittings and placing openings in walls.
The team also generated clash detection reports using Navisworks, which were sent for approval to the client.
Shop drawings, sections, BOQ, were extracted from the approved model. These were submitted in PDF/DWG format as required. As per client need, spool, module, schematic, as well as builders works drawings with sections were also created from the finalized model.
The team used on going quality checks to ensure accuracy and used the BIM 360 platform to make changes in real-time, so that the client and his team could access the updated model on any device, at any location.
Business Impact
