With a fully coordinated model, was able to isolate and analyze any scope or area of the building in detail. They then refined the drawings to prefabricate and assemble complex building systems and components in the subcontractors’ shops. Prefabricated components included rooftop mechanical equipment, multi-trade corridor pipe racks, plumbing carriers, framed wet-walls between toilet rooms, and entire electrical closets. Such intense prefabrication would not have been possible without BIM, which enabled a reduction in field labor and construction time, and flawless installation of components while maintaining the owner’s high quality standards.
Pre-fabricated drawing for extensive building technologies have been invented and put into Building Information Modeling could be used effectively fabrication drawings:
Log Housing - Factory cutting of individual logs as well as prefabrication of floor and roof components can be controlled by the Building information modeling.
Stud Walls - Exact lumber component calculations can be derived straight from the BIM model, and cutting of individual studs is done by CNC machines as instructed by the CAM application.
BIM allied with the best possible workflow for the design, manufacturing and construction of steel structures. Applying automated design and manufacturing solutions on prefabricated construction projects leads to: |
