Study Notes
Slide 7: Drawing Sets and Standards in AEC
- Construction Drawings are also known as working drawings
- They contain all required information for building the design.
- They are an important deliverable of final design.
- They include all specifications.
- Technical drawings are also special types of engineering drawings.
- Â Licensed professional engineers seal the drawings.
- Â This certifies quality to the best of their professional judgment
- Â They must follow standards regulated by organizations like APEGA.
- Construction Drawing Packages are for building projects.
- Architectural drawings show the overall shape of a building, rooms.
- Structural drawings show structural components, such as grade and size.
- Mechanical drawings show details of HVAC and plumbing.
- Electrical drawings show electrical layouts.
- Civil drawings show site grading plans, drainage and utility layouts.
- Landscape drawings show landscape layouts.
- Different drawing types include Plans, Elevations, Sections, and Reflected Ceiling Plans.
- Floor plans show the layout of a floor with labels for rooms, walls, doors/windows, stairs and furniture.
- Â How-to draw a Plan: Create a horizontal cutting plane to represent a floor view and create a section view with the cutting plane
- Reflected Ceiling Plans show ceiling layouts.
- Construction drawing packages for road projects include plan views and profile views.
Slide 8: BIM Introduction
- AEC projects are difficult to manage as they involve multiple organizations, unfixed locations, and unstructured environments.
- BIM is a modeling process to manage all aspects of a facility's life cycle.
- BIM models are used as containers for this collective information.
- BIM model development involves several steps, from hand drawing to 2D CAD, and finally, 3D CAD.
- BIM models are comprised of BIM components, like data describing components.
- Models can be used to conduct calculations (e.g., quantity takeoffs, energy analysis).
- BIM allows information to automatically be linked to software applications used for analyses.
- Using BIM saves time and resources due to better communication and data management.
- Â BIM improves communication and analysis processes.
Slide 9: BIM Core - Object-based Parametric Modelling
- Object-based parametric modelling (OPM) is a modeling technique where elements are represented as objects.
- OPM uses parameters and rules to determine geometric and non-geometric features.
- OPM differs from traditional CAD which doesn't use parameters.
- Early 3D Modelling used Boundary Representation (B-rep) and Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG).
- B-rep representation uses sets of closed surface while CSG uses functions to define primitive shapes.
- Both utilize Boolean operations for shapes.
- Comparing B-rep and CSG shows their different properties based on how they define shapes.
- A CSG model is easily edited and regenerated by just changing parameters.
Slide 10: Drawing Generation and BIM Applications
- Drawings are still needed despite BIM, as contracts and work cultures are accustomed to 2D drawings.
- BIM can be used to generate 2D drawings from the underlying model.
- BIM is good for managing drawings, reports, and data sets; while ensuring drawings are uniform (consistent)
- BIM enables consistent drawings, reports, and datasets that can be reused throughout the life of a project, saving time and resources.
- BIM is advantageous in handling changes, such as changing a wall's location, as the changes will be consistent across all relevant drawings.
Slide 11: BIM Environment
- BIM environments encompass tools, platforms, servers, libraries, and workflow processes used in building projects.
- Different BIM applications, platforms, and tools help in various aspects of a model, like modeling generators, review tools, and management tools.
- These tools facilitate information exchange and processing within the project life cycle.
Slide 12: Different BIM Applications (Software Reviews)
- Various BIM applications (such as Civil3D, Revit, Digital Project, Tekla) are discussed with their pros and cons, highlighting their specific strengths and weaknesses in terms of capability and usage.
- Â Civil3D, Revit, Digital Project, and Tekla Structures are common BIM platforms with differing capabilities and strengths.
- Pros and Cons for each software are noted.
Slide 13: BIM Tools (Specific Applications)
- Specific software tools are discussed, such as SmartPlant 3D, Navisworks, Cloud-based systems and their particular strengths.
- These tools support various aspects of BIM models, like analysis, simulation, collaboration, and management.
- Some BIM tools, like SmartPlant & Navisworks, focus on detailed design, analysis, and documentation in industrial projects.
- Â Some (Cloud-based) tools help with project and information management.
