BIM Modeling Services by Constructive U.S.:
Constructive U.S. provides comprehensive BIM modeling services. These services cater to a wide range of stakeholders in the construction industry. We tailor our services to meet the needs of BIM consultants, architects, and MEP consultants. We also serve mechanical contractors, owners, and general contractors across the nation.
Understanding BIM Modeling:
Building Information Modeling (BIM) services encompass a range of processes and tools. They help create and manage digital versions of buildings and infrastructure. These versions represent physical and functional characteristics. BIM is a collaborative approach. It involves generating digital representations of a facility’s physical and functional characteristics. This is done throughout the facility’s life cycle. It also involves managing these digital representations.
BIM Management Services:
1. 3D Modeling: This involves creating 3D virtual models. These models include detailed representations of architectural, structural, and MEP components. As well as upgrading the LOD of the models based on client needs. The LOD framework includes the following levels:
- LOD 300: Model elements are accurately modeled as specific assemblies. This includes quantity, size, location, and orientation.
- LOD 350 provides a graphical representation of model elements. It includes specific systems, objects, or assemblies. It also includes additional details.
- LOD 400: Model elements at this level show information for fabrication, assembly, and installation. They are graphically represented.
2. 4D Modeling: integrates the 3D model with the project schedule. It provides a time-based visualization of the construction process. It links virtual models to a CPM schedule. This allows for a comprehensive understanding of project sequencing and progress.
3. BIM 5D Modeling: combines 3D CAD components with scheduling constraints and budgetary considerations. This integration enables the visualization of expenses and progress. It revolutionizes the management of construction projects.
4. BIM Coordination:
- Creating a BEP BIM Execution Plan based on the EIR and specifications
- Clash detection identifies and resolves clashes or conflicts among different building systems. This prevents issues during construction. This is done through Navisworks. Clash reports are provided for each discipline.
- Interdisciplinary Coordination: Ensuring seamless collaboration between architectural, structural, and MEP disciplines.
5. BIM Documentation:
- We use the BIM model with LOD 400 to generate construction drawings, schedules, and specifications directly.
- Quantity takeoff (QTO) involves extracting accurate quantities of materials. The goal is for cost estimation and procurement.
6. BIM Management:
- Project Collaboration: We will implement BIM collaboration platforms to enhance communication and data sharing among project stakeholders. We will use the Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC).
- The Common Data Environment (CDE) allows sharing data across a project or asset lifecycle. It supports collaboration across the whole project team.
- We ensure adherence to industry standards and protocols for consistent BIM use. This is a standard implementation.
7. Facility Management (FM) Services:
- As-Built Documentation updates BIM models with as-built information. It is used in facility management at LOD500.
- Construction Operations Building Information Exchange (COBie) involves extracting the COBie from the model. First, update the models with all the data and information needed for the operation
