Project Overview
The project involved creating an As-Built BIM model, which significantly aided the construction team in achieving their project targets. The As-Built BIM model was crucial for accurate planning, execution and management of the construction processes. This model ensured that the building was constructed as designed, with precise documentation of all architectural, structural and MEP services, facilitating seamless project execution and coordination.
Scope of Work
Architectural and Exposed Structural Elements:
Our team performed extensive and thorough modeling of the entire architectural interior, including exposure and detailing of structural elements. This process ensured exceptional accuracy and attention to detail, reflecting our dedication to the highest architectural design and execution.
MEP Services
The project entailed detailed modeling of Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) systems at a Level of Detail (LOD) 500, encompassing both interior and exterior elements. This included precise specifications and configurations for components, ensuring accurate and coordinated representations that facilitate construction and maintenance processes.
Basement Plant Areas:
The large plant areas in the basements were modeled in 3D, capturing the existing mechanical equipment and other plant rooms like STP & WTP Pump Rooms and Electrical & Generator Rooms, which run through risers and spread into the floors.
Asset Data for Facility Management
Our team also incorporated complete asset data into the BIM model, which was essential for the facility management phase. This data included detailed information on the building's components, equipment specifications, maintenance schedules and operational guidelines. By integrating this data, we provided a valuable resource for ongoing building management and maintenance, enhancing the building's operational efficiency and longevity.
Collaboration and Workflow
Our team worked closely with the surveying team, using their expertise to manage the complexities of the large dimensions of the property. This synergy ensured that we achieved the project timelines with utmost efficiency and effectiveness.
Technology and Expertise
With the proficient utilization of advanced software, we not only met but surpassed our client's expectations, achieving their digitalization objectives with precision and excellence.
