"High risk and liability due..."

    • High risk and liability due to errors and omissions in construction document set


    • Lost profits resulting from extensive rework and revisions


    • Poor drawing accuracy and unreliable project information


    • Design workflow inaccurate and uncoordinated.

Building Information Modeling for Mechanical/Electrical/Plumbing (MEP) Engineering

Revit-based A&E workflow
    • Design Intuitively: Tools That
      Work the Way Engineers Think
    • Increase Coordination: Through Parametric Change Management
    • Improve Your Business: With
      Enhanced Communication

Design Intuitively
Treats Information in Terms of Entire Building
    • Revit Parametric Technology
    • Common database of design information
    • All views of model synchronized at all time
    • Design Criteria
    • Spaces – Color-fill Plans
    • Duct/Pipe – Color fill legends

Design Intuitively
With Tools That Work the Way Engineers Think
    • Sustainability Results
    • Analyze whole building energy
    • Easily report analysis data
    • Forecast annual building utility and energy costs
27
Increase Coordination
Eliminate design errors with automatic coordination
    • BI-Directional Associativity
      • Change it once, changes everywhere
      • Parametric technology automatically manages all changes

    • Mechanical and Electrical System Coordination
      • Automatically define electrical loads on mechanical equipment

    • Interference Checking
      • Select items to check
      • See problem before it is built

28
Improve your Business
With Enhanced Communication
    • Communicate design intent through realistic representation
    • Collaborate effectively across project team
    • Minimize application management with comprehensive solution
