Acquire information on design, construction, scheduling and materials from 3D models

Acceptance of Building Information Modeling or BIM by global Architecture, Engineering and Construction industry have tremendously reduced the problems of architects, structural engineers, MEP engineers, contractors and building owners as the BIM models developed for the construction projects can provide huge information to them. Appropriate parameters and accurate dimensions are used by design and construction professionals for developing highly information rich 3D parametric models for architecture, structure and MEP in Revit. For developing architectural and structural models Revit Architecture and Revit Structure are respectively utilized by AEC professionals, whereas when it comes to the development of 3D parametric models for MEP systems they make use of Revit MEP.

All these Revit disciplines incorporate vigorous and constructive BIM modeling tools which allow architects and engineers to generate immensely accurate 3D parametric models which are utilized by them throughout the building process. When design and construction professionals do not want anything else apart from design information 3D architectural, structural and MEP models are the most promising source of design data to them. On the other hand when they would like to obtain information associated to construction, time, money, scheduling, materials, and quantity takeoffs etc they have to execute 4D, 5D and 6D BIM modeling services. When new dimensions such as time, cost and sustainability etc are added to 3D parametric model, design and construction professionals can acquire meticulous information on construction, scheduling, quantity takeoffs, time and cost of the project and bill of materials etc.

If the above mentioned information is received in an error-free manner by architects and engineers it becomes sufficient for them when it comes to predicting the outcomes. Since the project has only been developed in a virtual environment so far, the outcomes predicted by design and construction professionals can be effectively governed or controlled by them. The building design developed by them in the virtual world can be successfully altered for obtaining productive outcomes. Error-free construction schedules created by key building professionals are essential for maintaining efficiency when the building is finally developed in the actual location.
