Do you want to make the most of the Building Information Modeling (BIM) technique ? Opt for BIM Clash Coordination and Reporting Services from one of the best  BIM Companies in New Jersey . The right BIM implementation between the engineer and the contractor helps to make easy clash detection and resolution, thus speeding up the AEC project. The Power of BIM Modeling for Clash Coordination: ·          Building Information Modeling acts as a powerful tool for coordination between a contractor and an engineer. One of the most useful functions of BIM is the capability to detect and report clashes to construction professionals. Clash detection through 3D BIM Modeling helps to accelerate the coordination process amongst various disciplines by detecting issues faster and more thoroughly. This allows communication between trades to emphasize solutions instead of identifying problems.   Process of Clash Detection & Clash Coordinatio...

Construction professionals are using Autodesk Revit software application for producing the 3D Concrete BIM Model to meet various project objectives such as: ·          Creation of 3 D Concrete Model for Clash Coordination   & Production of Shop Drawings ·          Constructability Review through Model Update for re f lecting changes from Design Changes, RFI Generation & Update) ·          Generation of Concrete Lift drawing such as: ü   Slab & Slab Soffit Drawings ü   Wall & Column Layout Plan ü   Embed Layout Plan ü   Detail Drawings ü   Wall Elevation ü   Pouring Sequence Plan Top 5 Challenges Involved in the Structural Concrete Projects: 1.       Aggressive Project Deadline: Often, several project stakeholders get involved in model execution. Hence, it becomes hard to p...

Every year in April Revit releases a new version with enhanced features. However, this year the skeptics were doubtful whether Revit would go ahead with the launch amid the COVID-19 pandemic. But, it is heartening to note that despite the circumstances, Revit has kept up its schedule and released the update this April.   While Revit 2021 has several innovative features to enhance workflows for construction professionals, in this blog we will focus on the features relevant for architectural purposes.   Let us look at what Revit 2021 has in store for architects:   Slanted Walls   The much-awaited feature is now available for architects to offer innovative design options. Architects can now slant walls without using a mass element as a host with the help of the Cross-Section parameter. The wall angle can be set with the help of the Vertical parameter. The slant angle can vary between -90 to +90 degrees with 0 degrees denoting vertical.   It is now possibl...

Are you aware of the collaborative technology trends in the construction sector? Well, as an AEC professional, you must be responsive to the new technology trends that can bring a breakneck speed to the construction industry. Here are a few technologies you implement for piloting your construction projects on the right track. 1.        3D Printing: 3D printing technology can revolutionize material sourcing. For prefabrication & modularization , materials for a project can be printed and transported to the job site. This facilitates construction companies to receive materials faster in a streamlined way by eliminating unnecessary steps. 2.       Artificial Intelligence (AI): Implementation of artificial intelligence on the construction site with the usage of robotics for bricklaying & autonomous equipment can complete tasks without human interaction. AI provides benefits to construction projects through impr...

It is a prerequisite for the growth sector to confront the grave issues sourcing development materials, located in China, and other parts of Asia due to the outbreak of the Coronavirus (COVID-19). Even though, the deficiency of the inventory network is not predicted to be overly delayed, with recovery it is projected to stay at 50% of 2020. Hence, for the time being, development activities might get delayed if development materials can’t be obtained. Market Research Statistics on Construction Industry ·          Australia imports 58-60% of its nearly $6 billion expense on development materials from China, according to the Australian Construction Industry Forum (ACIF). ·          As per the calculations &estimate of the Housing Industry Association, over 1.1 million Australian employees are involved in the Construction industry. A Threat to Development as Laborers Bound to Stay at Home ...

  3D-Printing & Virtual Reality Formats are great solutions for creating digital building products. Products created by The BIM Object - BIM Script & LENA are automatically available in file formats adding values to manufacturers, designers, and developers. The content-creating solutions are improved with additional output file formats namely the STL optimized for 3D printing and the Virtual Reality Format FBX. The new file formats are automatically created in the process of content development with direct links for 3D printing, Virtual& Augmented Reality Solutions. One can update existing content for including the formats. The stereolithographic STL format is the foundation for all 3D printers and is combined into BIM script & LENA as a supplementary file format. This entails that the scale models along with the samples of parametric Building Information Modeling objects can be printed easily from a single source, without converting any file. This, in...

5D Building Information Modeling For Construction 4D BIM and 5D BIM technologies are revolutionizing the construction industry. Governments in several countries across the globe have authorized Building Information Modeling adoption for professionals in the Architectural, Engineering & Construction industries. Implementing the new BIM trend helps in an efficient deployment of resources, designing, planning, and decreasing rework during the construction process.  What is 5D Building Information Modeling or 5D BIM? 5D BIM for construction comes as a successor to 4D BIM time scheduling , integrating design with estimates like cost and encompassing the production of quantities through bills of quantities or quantity takeoff (BOQ/Bills Of Materials), rate of development, and overall costs. The integrated information-rich 3D BIM models with additional dimensions of 4D construction scheduling and 5D cost estimation ensure improved management of change orders on project co...
