How BIM can optimize trade coordination for your project needs?

-
Image
Utilizing BIM for Trade Coordination   Building Information Modeling ( BIM ) is a process that uses 3D models to represent a building or infrastructure project. BIM can be used to improve trade coordination by providing a single source of information for all stakeholders. This can help to identify and resolve conflicts early in the design process, which can save time and money. ➡️ What is BIM? BIM is a process that uses 3D models to represent a building or infrastructure project. BIM models can be used to represent the physical and functional aspects of a project. This information can be used to improve communication, collaboration, and decision-making throughout the project lifecycle. 🎯 Read More:- What is BIM (Building Information Modeling) & 7 Levels of BIM ➡️ How BIM can optimize trade Coordination It’s useful to look at steps of the coordination workflow from the perspective of the BIM coordinator. BIM can optimize trade coordination in a number of ways. First, it can he...

Parametric BIM Modeling in Construction Design | Tejjy Inc.

-
Image
Parametric Modeling is the formation of a digital model constructed on a series of pre-programmed documentations or algorithms called 'parameters'. To be precise, the model, or elements are produced automatically through internal logic arguments instead of by being manually operated. Relationship of Parametric Rules with Design Components: Normally, parametric rules build relationships among various design components. To take an instance, a rule might be created to ensure that walls should begin at the floor level and reach underneath the ceiling. If the floor-to-ceiling height is altered, the walls will automatically adjust to the building suit. Some other instances include the height of the window sill over the floor level, the connection between the walls and a slanting roof, the association between the floor area & the window size, and so on. The same algorithm can be used throughout a model so that if a specific component or rule is altered, changes can be seen thr...

How Should Construction Contractors Respond to Global Pandemic? Tejjy Inc.

-
Image
Construction veterans expect the global economy to contract and expand. However, the Global pandemic presents construction contractors with a challenge.  Dr. John Killings Worth, Construction Management Professor at Colorado State University, who conducted extensive research on how contractors can withstand economic recessions stated that several contractors have no option rather than being reactive in the short term. They are not sure when the job sites will open or close. They’re considering the forecasts from qualified statisticians & public health officials, owing to the inadequate data availability. Long-term Strategy for the Contractors It is significant for the contractors to dive into long-term strategies . ·          Scrutinize the Fixed Costs of Everything The contractors should scrutinize the fixed costs related to everything from Personnel to Property, Plant & Equipment. For instance, it’s natural to hold onto one...

Revit 2021 New Features for Architecture | Tejjy Inc.

-
Image
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...

Significant Technology Trends Navigating Improved Construction Productivity

-
Image
Are you yearning for the technology trends that can improve the productivity of your construction? Here are a dozen of the construction technologies for navigating your projects, bringing the most fruitful result. 1.        Predictive Analytics: Predictive analytics are making risk management easier . The technology helps to analyze data from contractors, material suppliers, designers, and the construction site to weigh up risk factors based on previous records. This provides dashboards where General Contractors can detect the project elements at the highest risk and allow them to drill down to perceive the risk assessment. 2.       Construction Software & Data Ecosystem: Real-time collaboration is considered to be a vital constituent of the entire building process. Its impact on the construction sector is expected to increase considerably. The data ecosystem has truly played an essential role in bringing a para...

BIM Bringing Paradigm Shift to Construction Industry | Tejjy Inc.

-
Image
Are you enthusiastic about BIM (Building Information Modeling) adoption ? Do you think it stands for a paradigm shift from Building Information to Business Intelligence? Is BIM complicated for you? Well, the concept may seem complicated to many people as they consider BIM to be a magic bean with the capability of   miraculously converting designs into beautifully rendered images. To put it simply, BIM is a process where the 3D model of the building   is enriched with spatial and non-spatial information. If you consider an instance of a pump, the spatial information such as dimensions & locations as well as the non-spatial data including the capacity, fluid handled, producer, supplier, date of installation, etc. can be added over the 3-Dimensional pump model, making it enriched with data. So, BIM constitutes to be a shared digital representation of the physical and functional attributes of a built object, establishing a reliable root for decision-making. Conve...

What are the Requisites of Public Space Permits in DC? Tejjy Inc.

-
Image
Public Space is demarcated as the publicly owned property between the property lines on a street. Space includes roadways, trees, sidewalks, and lanes. Some of the public space usage needs a permit from Public Space Management, functioned by DDOT's Public Space Regulations Division. However, the Permits for the Public Space are approved in the District, by the Planning & Sustainability Division, under definite  circumstances. Let’s have a look at the requisites of public space permits in DC : ·          It is a pre-requisite for the people who are frequently carrying out public space excavation and manhole work to provide plans once every two weeks, showing their projected activities in the public space within the time of two-week. ·          There will be no work execution if the applicant, or the person on whose behalf the application is made, has outstanding renewal in the public spac...

Contractors Should Speed Up BIM Adoption to Reap Manifold Benefits

-
Image
Every contractor needs to realize the benefits of BIM (Building Information Modeling) in the AEC  (Architectural, Engineering & Construction) industry. The contractors should know how BIM is playing a prime role in the construction supply chain and speed up BIM adoption. An increased understanding of the fundamentals of BIM in the construction sector can facilitate a stronger supply chain. Many of the contractors are still not ready to implement BIM. The situation is more concerning with small and medium-sized firms, as they are not ready to implement BIM. Building Information Modeling cannot work properly if the professionals of the supply chain are not ready to understand the BIM benefits in a project.  Action plans that can help the construction industry to speed up BIM implementation include: ·          Emancipating BIM checklist for helping firms ensure that they are set for BIM implementation in 4 key areas – skills, pro...
