Leveraging BIM services to streamline airport design and construction

Image
The increasing load of international passengers means that the airports have to constantly modify their design and layout.  The sheer size of the construction, as well as the operation complexity, makes the task of airport construction a complex job. Some of the challenges in constructing an airport are budgeting,  on-site safety of workers,  design and constructability issues,  activity scheduling, etc. In this respect, solutions offered by BIM Engineering services can be applied as a viable alternative to address the challenges.  Among the several benefits offered by BIM, the most prominent is its ability to help the stakeholders visualize the project in the design phase.  By allowing the stakeholders to visualize the project in the design phase, BIM engineering services facilitate greater collaboration amongst them. This can help multiple stakeholders to give their inputs in the design phase and that helps in designing and constructing a sustainable airport. Further, the integrati

Hospitals are places of refuge sick and weak people can seek relief. Fire in any building can be a horrific affair and in a hospital building, it can have a devastating impact. Fire in the hospital building can have severe consequences as most people in the hospital are sick and therefore cannot escape the Fire on their own.  Therefore, it is important to plan and design the fire system of the hospital building with great care and attention to detail.  Designing the fire protection system is a complex task for any building.  While designing the fire protection system for a building it is important to adopt a holistic approach and analyze each and every building component in its entirety. The process becomes more critical in a hospital setting. For designing the fire protection system of any hospital,  it is important to not only comply with the code and legal responsibilities but also considered the different parts of the building. In order to address the complexity associated with des

Using Virtual reality to add value to the output generated by point cloud services

In recent years, the construction industry has undergone a phenomenal transformation. One of the areas which have particularly undergone radical transformation is the refabrication, remodeling, and expansion of archaic buildings. The advent of point cloud services has made the process of generating a 3D model of buildings seamless, cost-effective, and less prone to errors. The following paragraphs detail the process followed by leading providers of point cloud services and how virtual reality can add value to the model created by point cloud services. The process of point cloud services starts with a highly efficient laser beam scanner. The laser beam scanner emits a high-frequency laser beam. Each point at which the laser beam strikes the existing structure is recorded as a point. Millions of such data points are generated even while the laser scanner is used to scan the smallest of objects. The greater the density of points more accurate is the 3D model that is created out of it. T
