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 ...

Building information modeling (BIM)  has a transformative impact on many disciplines related to the creation of a built environment. The application of BIM engineering services has the potential to transform the discipline of interior designing as well. BIM can offer a host of unique benefits to the design process of interior design. most importantly the application of BIM engineering services helps to create design models with enhanced convenience and speed-  offering designers the ability to visualize their imagination in a three-dimensional environment in the design phase itself.  BIM software can help by creating a 3D model of the existing interior or exterior structures of a building on which the interior designer can base his or her subsequent works. Another important benefit of BIM Engineering services is that it helps in coordinating and maintaining the consistency of the 3D model throughout the design phase. Irrespective of the scale or number of changes being...

Perhaps the most critical area in the flawless project construction is the Mechanical, electrical, and Plumbing system. However, while mechanical and electrical systems are given a lot of attention, the plumbing systems do not always get the required attention that they deserve. This can give rise to complications or issues during on-site construction or after execution.  Advancement in technology in the AEC industry has made it possible to simultaneously represent the different building areas digitally in the form of a 3-D parametric model referred to as BIM. While the MEP BIM modeling looks after the MEP system, the plumbing BIM modeling services look after the plumbing departments and needs of the construction site.  In the following pages, we will specifically consider how the plumbing issues of a building can be serviced by plumbing BIM modeling services.  Clogging and leakages in a pipe- While the buildings are healthy when newly constructed, leakages and cloggin...
