BIM Based Shop-Fabrication Drawings (From Clash free 3D Model)

3dprime provides high-quality 3D Modeling, Drafting and Detailing services to construction industry. Specializing in Mechanical HVAC systems, all of our work is performed by tradesman who have hands-on experience fabricating and installing these systems and understand the complexities of MEP work. We are capable of completing entire projects, or in concert with your existing team. We provide fast, friendly and professional services while maintaining the highest standards of quality.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) generates a complete digital model of the building that can produce exact bill of material and cost estimate along with coordinated drawings and details. A conceptual building information model can provide a quick feedback on several design assumptions as the model contains components with historical cost data, productivity data and other estimating data. In BIM based estimating & takeoff system the design model is linked with estimating process and the quantity takeoff along with overall estimating process is greatly enhanced. The faster feedback on proposed design changes can be easily achieved.

Coordinated MEPF Composite Services Drawings

MEP 3D Model is effectively utilized for production for coordinated MEPF / M & E Drawings. These includes drawings at various stages such as,

  • MEPF / M&E Schematic Drawings
  • MEPF / M&E Drawings Tender / Bid
  • MEPF / M&E Construction Drawings
  • MEPF / M&E Contract Drawings
MEPF / M & E Coordination Drawings from Clash Free Model (Process)

Once the clash detection & removal process is completed, 3DPrime produces coordinated MEPF drawings from this clash free model. We are able to verify that our spatially coordinated MEP building services models work to engineering standards and constraints as well as the structural and architectural elements within a building.

Coordinated Service Drawings (CSD) is prepared by coordinating the MEP services like HVAC, Plumbing/Hydraulic, Fire Fighting and Electrical 3D Models with the Architectural, Structural, and Reflected Ceiling Plans (RCP). It is ensured that these services do not obstruct each other either physically or functionally. These are done as per the Clients requirements / Specifications, and strictly adhering to various International Standards.

3DPrime has extensive experience on executing MEP 2D & 3D projects. Our team of engineers with manufacturing experience supports in converting your hand-drawn sketches, design concepts and drawings into 2D and 3D. We have developed CAD Toolbars to facilitate the production of drawings. We have executed number of projects for our customers in the areas of Oil & Gas, Chemical, Telecom and various Industry verticals. We do also generate Bill of Materials for assembly’s that ultimately, make it easy for our clients to plan inventory levels and production planning and help them achieve efficiency on the shop floor.

We ensure to have no collisions with the steel, ceiling and MEP elements. As an example, HVAC drawings showing installed ductwork with horizontal and vertical dimensions to avoid interference with structural framing, ceilings, partitions, equipment, lights, mechanical, fire protection, electrical and other services. The drawings provide top of duct and bottom of duct dimensions. These are extracted from clash free 3D Model. The necessary annotations, text and attributes are added so as to increase readability of drawings and more project and trade information is made available. These drawings are utilized further by each trade contractor to install his equipment’s in space allocated for respective systems.

  • Coordination drawings are utilized to coordinate the needs of each system installer, ensuring that everything can be properly installed and providing space to do so. Similar to shop drawings, coordination drawings allow the project to be laid out ‘virtually,’ and provide a clear plan of action to each systems contractor. Utilizing coordination drawings on a construction project prevents problems arising between contractors during construction.
  • The production of combined services drawings (plans and sections) locates each service in two dimensions and helps identify any clashes. Once services are fully coordinated all builders work information can be added (slab and wall penetrations etc.) and identified individually. These drawings are produced with each service and associated notation on separate, easily identifiable layers making it a simple task to peel off individual services to form the basis of workshop installation drawings.

Shop / Fabrication Drawings – Single Services Drawings (SSD)

A shop drawing is a drawing or set of drawings produced by the contractor, supplier, manufacturer, subcontractor, or fabricator. Shop drawings are typically required for prefabricated components. Examples of these include: elevators, structural steel, trusses, pre-cast, windows, appliances, cabinets, air handling units, and millwork. Also critical are the installation and coordination shop drawings of the MEP trades such as sheet metal ductwork, piping, plumbing, fire protection, and electrical.

  • The shop drawing’s primary emphasis is on the particular product or installation and excludes notation concerning other products and installations, unless integration with the subject product is necessary. It can also include take-off all individual pieces
  • These drawings provide a clear view for the contractor and builder of any potential issues they may face when installing certain systems, prior to the start of construction. Facing delays due to conflicts or issues, such as too many or not enough workers for a job, can be extremely costly for a contractor. Thus, shop drawings will prevent costly issues from arising during a construction project.

We can create 3D models from 2D drawings or adapt architects 3D models to allow for work breakdown structuring to an agreed SMM format. This can often be completed within the time constraints of tendering deadlines. SMM data (Standard Method of Measurement) generated for BOQ production enables BIM data to be used by sub-contractors for tendering as well as onsite teams for contract administration. The upfront effort is similar to a typical BOQ production, but the downstream savings in time and improved accuracy can be invaluable to project teams.
