Revit Modeling is an Incredible Approach Towards Digitalizing Building Design!

It took ages for design and construction professionals to reach a stage wherein they can develop digital design for architecture, structure and MEP, which can ultimately increase the intensity at which they complete a task. In other words the creation of digital design, leads to high level of productivity and reduction of wastage. Virtual design  and construction  which is optimized for creating precise 3D parametric models which can effectively showcase all the physical and functional attributes of a building, empowers design and construction professionals to discovers and rectify the challenges of final construction.

The approach through which parametric models are developed for individual building trade is 3D BIM modeling. Since Revit is the software which is tremendously optimized by worldwide Architecture, Engineering and Construction professionals for developing parametric models and hence the services executed through it are ultimately called Revit modeling services.

The demand for Revit Modeling Services is equally for every discipline, as Revit is the only software solution which is equipped with advanced 3D modeling tools, which allow design and construction professionals to develop each building element with high precision.

The amount of information which is modeled in a parametric model is ultimately decided by clients, who use it for construction. For example, if clients want structural model to accommodate extensive details in it, then they have to specify it initially to BIM technicians who are accountable for the creation of parametric model. In fact they provide clear cut information about the level of details to be used during Revit modeling services. For example, when it comes to including extreme design details in a parametric model, it is generally developed with LOD 400 and 500.

When design development is carried out through Revit Architecture, Revit Structure and Revit MEP, all the disciplines of the software allow its users to effectively coordinate imperative information through worksharing.

Architects and engineers prefer CAD drawings over manual drawings!

What is the reason that all the architects and engineers across the world are willing to use CAD drawings services and not manual drawings?  Since the time the worldwide Architecture, Engineering and Construction professionals got to know about computer aided design technology, they have effectively understood that this particular technology has the capacity to change the entire structure of the industry in terms of how people associated to it perform.

Since the human being started the practice of developing buildings and other important structures such as flyovers and towers etc, for making their life comfortable, they had always been developing the design of  all these buildings and structures manually.

That means the process of manual design development has existed for centuries, and there were many disadvantages of it compared to digital design process. Since design and construction professionals had to develop all the technical drawings (which are very complex in nature) manually, it is true that it used to consume unexpectedly large amount of time to complete them.

Technical drawings for architecture, structure and MEP are always developed separately by drafters with the instruction of architects and engineers. The specifications provided by architects and engineers, carry detailed instructions and notes about the design of building systems, and based on them drafters used to generate handmade technical drawings.

But architects and engineers found the CAD drawings too interesting and productive, when they started experiencing them. All the other drafting techniques are still same apart from that fact that drawings are now generated with the support of computer software. Mostly AutoCAD is used for executing drafting services, since it is believed that as of now only it contains the most dynamic tools which are needed for generating digital drawings.

Easy communication facilitated by CAD drawings, helps in increasing the productivity of drafters, architects, engineers and fabricators etc.  These drawings are used throughout project lifecycle, and hence their swift communication makes them highly important. If clients feel like making some changes to the drawings, it can be easily done by the drafters with the support of the editing tools contained within the software. 

Portfolio of MEP design services

Mechanical, electrical and plumbing design services includes plethora of services such as drafting, design, detailing and modeling etc. and they  are highly essential streamlining construction work. During pre-construction, for designing MEP systems, engineering services has to be executed in a specific series. Once initial design of the building is prepared, drafting services for MEP systems can be performed and for that an adequate firm should be assigned to achieve the desired outcome.

Mechanical services include Heating and cooling equipment selection and schematic design, Heat loss and gain calculations, Plant room layout design etc.

 Electrical services include Electrical Panel Schedules, Design and Drafting of Lighting, Power Systems etc.

Plumbing services include Piping 2D Drafting, Pipe Fabrication Drawings, Pipe Restoration Drawings etc.

MEP shop drawing and installation drawing services are immensely crucial because entire construction process relays upon them.  Detailers develop these shop drawings on AutoCAD software as per the requirements of their clients. MEP drafting services play a vital role in the creation of mechanical, electrical and plumbing drawings. 

Detailers developed MEP drawings based on the specifications handed over by engineers and these specifications contain information regarding measurements and drafting standards. It’s not possible to start drawing activities, without attaining specifications and if they are not conveyed on time, the drafting activities get delayed.

MEP modeling services are also part of the MEP design services which are needed for developing high end models wherein the modelers can use MEP drawings for obtaining necessary information for modeling. This modeling process is done on a software product called Revit MEP which is quintessentially invented by keeping the needs of MEP modeling in mind.
