ABOUT BIM

 

 

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is one of the most promising developments in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industries. With BIM technology, one or more accurate virtual models of a building are constructed digitally. They support design through its phases, allowing better analysis and control than manual processes. When completed, these computer-generated models contain precise geometry and data needed to support the construction, fabrication, and procurement activities through which the building is realized.

 

ACE BIM Services

3D Services

 At ACE, we offer BIM enabled virtual design solutions and 3D construction models to promote collaboration between design, engineering and construction teams.

Our 3D BIM modeling services include:

  • 3D BIM services for as-built environments

  • Conversion of 2D to 3D Models for architecture, structure and MEP systems and components

  • Development of fabrication and shop drawings

  • Support for BIM implementation and virtual construction coordination

  • Custom family/library creation for architectural and MEP products and components

  • CAD to BIM for information-rich 3D building models

  • Concept sketches and 2D Drawings to 3D BIM models

  • Clash-detection with engineering and construction data

4D Services

With our BIM expertise, we help building and construction project stakeholders to efficiently schedule construction processes, foresee conflicts and optimize the processes to gain control on the project outcome.

Our 4D BIM services include:

  • 3D BIM models to 4D BIM conversion for efficient construction process scheduling, conflict detection and resolution.

  • Real time construction sequence simulations along with logistical and phasing presentations.

  • Construction scheduling and sequencing to manage workflows and implement lean scheduling.

5D Services

With our experience in Building Information Modeling, we deliver BIM 5D services to assist project owners to integrate cost estimation information with their BIM models along with time and schedule data.

Our 5D BIM services include:

  • Creation of a virtual intelligent 3D model with embedded geometrical and non-geometrical data

  • Conversion from BIM 4D to 5D for accurate cost estimation and quantity take-offs

  • Development of high quality construction documents

  • Creation of libraries for architectural, structural and MEP products using Revit and AutoCAD

  • Clash detection and risk mitigation

  • Architectural, structural, MEP integration

Facility Management

From design to demolition, we extend complete BIM support services for building operations and maintenance, renovation and refurbishment, facility management and optimization of asset management.

Our BIM services for facility management include:

  • BIM for Asset Management

  • BIM enabled Centralized database for building elements

  • BIM maintenance plans and technical support

  • COBie data population and extraction

 

Level of Development (LOD)

Improve downstream collaboration on your building projects with AIA standard Level of Development.

  • We enable you to streamline your workflow with BIM and adopting all its parameters; including the AIA specified standards for Level of Development for each component.

  • We create 3D models with and without the non-graphical data add-ons, for the different LOD specifications from LOD 100 through to LOD 400.

Revit Family Creation

Add native and custom components to your project and modify them with ease. Our Revit family creation services include:

  • Architectural Revit Families: We create Architectural families for doors, windows, furniture, sanity ware, walls and partitions, ceilings and other fittings and accessories. These models can be developed and modified at later stages or manipulated as per project requirements.

  • Structural Revit Families: Our modelers create structural families for all types of components like beams, columns, joists, trusses, foundation etc. for steel, wood, concrete and RCC structures.

  • MEP Revit Families: We develop MEP families for HVAC equipment, switchboards, lighting fixtures, toilet fixtures, water pipes and other such MEP components.

BIM QA/QC

At ACE, we excel in performing quality assurance/quality checking for BIM models, to make them suitable for virtual construction management process. Our BIM QA/QC services include:

  • Independent quality check for models from different sources

  • Model completion check to remove duplicates and hanging objects

  • System completion check to ensure properly modeled pipe connections and equipment accesses executed by QC team

  • Pre-Shipment check executed by Project manager.
