The BIM approach to Design Coordination in MEP Projects
The BIM approach to Design Coordination in MEP Projects MEP BIM modelling services include services for mechanical, plumbing and electrical systems and caters to MEP contractors, fabricators and general contractors who would require accurate and detailed BIM models to develop these systems for a particular zone in their building model. The process usually involves creating informative 3D models related to the mechanical, electrical and plumbing components of the building while ensuring that each of these components are compliant of all the applicable HVAC, Electrical and Plumbing building codes which is possible with the detailed and precise BIM models that can be generated. Approaches to Design Coordination Fig 1: Comparison between traditional design process and BIM-based design process (Wang et al.2014) Design is the process of creating a solution to a project brief and then preparing instructions allowing that solution to be constructed. Building design is typical...
