THERE IS NO ALTERNATIVE TO DIGITALISATIONEven on the building site. Construction needs to

step up productivity through digitalisation.

BIM IS THE DIGITALISATIONOF ALL ASPECTS OF CONSTRUCTION LIFECYCLE• Rapid digital modelling and testing

• Easy access to digital information

• Better interdisciplinary collaboration

Technology and processes can improve efficiency but

only through collaboration we can make better buildings

BIM IN MEP IS ALL ABOUT- COORDINATION - CALCULATION - COLLABORATION

BIM IN MEP DESIGN1. COORDINATION

COORDINATION IN MEP DESIGN

3D design of one discipline ▪ more accurate design of systems

▪ coordination inside a discipline

© Copyright 2017 Progman Ltd

3D design and visual

coordination of disciplines▪ collision checking, coordination

▪ between disciplines, stakeholders

”saving time and

money during the

construction phase”

Information sharing based

coordination▪ Digitalization of one specific process

▪ E.g. Provision for voids process

between MEP and structural designer

Virtual Reality, VR▪ Visualization of coordination

It is all about

COORDINATION

EXAMPLE: INTEGRATED ENGINEERING CALCULATIONS FOR VENTILATION SYSTEMS

© Copyright 2017 Progman Ltd

Once the ventilation system is partly or fully modelled, you can easily utilise MagiCAD´s integrated and localised calculation tools including sizing, balancing, system sound calculations and space sound calculation. Calculate to minimum pressure, fan pressure or a given pressure. Adjustment values, pressure drop, sound and flow data – all is there for you to analyse. Finally when all are set and done, print the calculation report with matching node numbers and all the design criteria documented.

MEP DESIGN & BIM3. COLLABORATION

COLLABORATION IN MEP DESIGN

Communication tools ▪ Standardize a communication of issues

▪ A way to report and also

find issue from a model

▪ E.g. BCF –tools

(Building Collaboration Format)

▪ Communication services E.g. BIMcollab

© Copyright 2017 Progman Ltd

Cloud based file services▪ Standardize model sharing

▪ Global access

▪ E.g. Autodesk BIM360

IFC▪ Standardize data delivery

▪ Data transfer between different

software

▪ E.g. model checking software

It is all about

COLLABORATION
