Using Revit to bring fire protection services under BIM

Image
While deciding to use new software, you need to consider several areas of concern. Especially, while adopting new software, you need to consider factors like its effect on the current process, delivery commitments, and delivery teams. Some of the major considerations for construction projects these days are coordination, clash resolution, and capturing of data.  The traditional, project execution method miserably fails in these areas- pushing the construction companies towards BIM. Another factor that further pushes the construction industry towards Revit is the fact that equipment manufacturers have also started providing content as Revit families. Considering the above factors, this is, therefore, the right time to switch to Revit for sprinkler system modeling and thus bring the fire protection services under the ambit of BIM.  Many players in the construction industry have already moved or are actively considering moving to Revit for sprinkler system modeling. The factors that have

The multiple uses of Revit by leading BIM service providers

Earlier the entire construction process was dependent on construction drawings. These drawings did not give a complete picture of the project in the design phase and often led to time and cost overruns for the construction projects. However, all this has changed with the arrival of Building information modeling(BIM). For instance, since the arrival of Revit, a BIM software, the modeling process has become very convenient for engineers and architects.   The process modeling services offered by Revit are required for structural, MEP, and architectural parts of any construction project. As a cutting-edge BIM software, Revit offers several distinguishing features that can help the BIM modelers in generating a high-quality 3D model as output. The digital twin of the project created by Revit can help in the identification and rectification of issues in the design phase- leading to faster construction within the budget.  Owing to the numerous advantages offered by Revit, leading BIM service p

Factors to be considered before selecting a leading BIM service provider

The rising global population has pushed the need for more efficient and sustainable commercial structures, residential projects, healthcare facilities, etc. In this regard, BIM  can create a sustainable impact on the project owners, contractors, engineers, and other stakeholders of the AEC industry. However, for the successful adoption and implementation of BIM, certain key challenges need to be addressed. Here is a list of these challenges-  A huge initial investment in software Lack of resources and professionals who can work efficiently on the software  Lack of adequate infrastructure to support BIM technology These issues can however be effectively addressed by outsourcing your BIM project to a leading BIM service provider . Selecting a leading BIM service provider is not only effective but also a viable solution to help companies and overcome challenges. However, choosing the ideal BIM partner is important as it can either make or break the project. We have combed through expert o
