At Square Angle offshore, we believe that Building Information Modeling (BIM) is an innovative method to seamlessly bridge communication within the Architecture, Engineering and Construction communities.
This is acheaved by integrating the design and engineering process through information contained on the documents , is what separates BIM from just another drawing tool. SA has integrated the following into our BIM process:
• 3-D modeling of MEP systems using AutoDesk Revit Mechanical Systems.
• Integration of the 3-D MEP model with architecture and structural components to address
conflict resolution.
• Use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Modeling with the 3-D design model to calculate air
movement, temperatures, humidity levels and chemical or particulate migration both inside and outside the building.
• Use of component attributes to allow for product schedule development, cost estimating and
linking with shop drawing review/O&M manuals.
• Importing documents to contractors for development of 3-D coordination drawings.
• Develop 3-D PD F models for architectural coordination and collaboration.
