3 Ways Architectural BIM Modeling Outsourcing Services Aid Sustainability Design In Construction And MEP Design In 2023

Outsourcing architectural BIM Modeling services to top BIM service providers like The AEC Associates helps you make your projects more creative and efficient, faster and fool-proof. Through architectural BIM Modeling services outsourcing, you can ensure that every single aspect of a construction project like architectural, structural MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing), and fire protection is covered during the planning stage itself. This results in efficient, error-free construction and better operations and facilities management later.

What is architectural BIM modeling?

Architectural BIM modeling is the process of creating a digital representation of a building using specialized software. It involves developing a detailed 3D model that includes architectural elements, structural components, MEP systems, and other relevant information. BIM modeling enables better collaboration, visualization, and analysis throughout the project lifecycle, leading to improved design accuracy, clash detection, and efficient construction documentation generation.

Let us also examine BIM architecture outsourcing services in some more detail. One would wonder what the scope of BIM modeling services would be given how profoundly the AEC business has just been altered by the adoption of BIM as a technology and discipline. Common applications and services include:

Architectural Drafting Services

Architectural Revit 3D Modeling

Architectural Floor Plan, Elevations, Roof, Ceilings, Furniture, Kitchen, etc.

Architectural Site Plan Layout

Architectural Conceptual, Schematic, and Design Development

Architectural Conceptual, Schematic, and Design Development

Architectural Construction Documents Set

Architectural Component Revit Family

Point Cloud to Architectural BIM Modeling

Architectural Shop Drawings

Architectural As-built Drawings

Quantity Take-off and Material Take-offs (BOQ & BOM)

Significance of MEP design:

Integrating MEP services well in the overall design layout guarantees comfort for the users and efficient operations and facilities management. It’s important for BIM Modeling services to ensure that there are no conflicting/ clashing elements and that all aspects including architectural, structural, MEP and FP are well coordinated. For this, all pertinent relevant information should be available while planning MEP layouts.

Architecture BIM outsourcing services help you create multi-disciplinary information in order to develop a detailed digital representation. This model allows you to easily and efficiently handle a collaborative design process. The engineers also get easy access to critical points in the overall layout. They can thus develop an optimum system to make the design more efficacious.

How can architectural BIM Modeling services outsourcing help improve sustainability design in construction and MEP design:

 Following are ways top BIM providers aid sustainability design in MEP design and construction.

Energy and sustainability analysis (water and energy consumption estimation)

We are aware that buildings are responsible for several negative impacts on the environment. We may include non-renewable energy consumption and also wastage of pure drinking water, aspects that must be addressed. BIM can effectively simplify energy and sustainability analysis, providing energy and water consumption estimation in accurate terms for a proposed building. Architecture BIM outsourcing services calculate accurate amounts of energy needs and water consumption so MEP systems can be designed accordingly. 

All the building characteristics are thoroughly assessed for energy performance analysis and the results of energy simulation are linked by BIM with a building sustainability assessment method. This helps designers improve building sustainability during the design stage itself.

MEP scheduling

BIM-based MEP coordination adds great value to a construction project. BIM provides a virtual 3D model of the building which can be developed before the actual construction begins. These models show the clashes/ conflicts between different trades/ disciplines at a very early stage. BIM facilitates effective MEP coordination among all the different discipline specialists: mechanical, electrical and plumbing, and structural engineers- enabling them to share comparative data and relevant inter-disciplinary information. You can simplify many tasks using BIM which saves a lot in terms of time and money. There are no clashing elements and the overall layout is very smooth and efficient.

Minimizing material wastage

The combination of different tasks simultaneously constituted in developing the design process may take longer time and can also cause many technical errors. A lack of systematic coordination often causes clashes between different stakeholders- architects, structural engineers, contractors, MEP engineers, and so on. Sustainability design ensures MEP coordination with various services protecting resources and minimizing waste. Different technologies like heat recovery ventilation, solar collectors, artificial intelligence AI, and high-efficiency pumps are used in construction to reduce material waste and improve energy efficiency.

You can embrace the modern phenomenon of architectural BIM Modeling services outsourcing to incorporate sustainable design in construction and MEP design for all your projects. This helps you make accurate energy and water consumption estimations, prepare MEP scheduling and stick to it, and minimize material wastage for a successful building project.

We've Been Documenting Our Pattern Design Process All Wrong (And How We're Fixing It)

Hey fellow pattern people! 💕

So we just had one of those "why didn't we start this sooner?!" moments in our studio last week. After losing track of how we created that one perfect botanical motif (you know, the one everyone keeps asking about), we finally got serious about documenting our design process.

We're definitely not experts at this—just fellow artists figuring things out alongside you—but we thought we'd share what we've been learning about documentation because OH MY GOODNESS it's making such a difference!

What we've been trying:

Setting up our phones on cheap tripods to record time-lapses (not perfect lighting but who cares!)

Taking screenshots whenever we make a major design decision (future us says thank you)

Creating super simple project templates that don't feel overwhelming

Actually writing down our color codes instead of just... hoping we'll remember them? (lol why did we do this to ourselves)

The whole social media growth thing as artists can be SO draining sometimes. We're constantly creating new content, but then struggling to remember how we actually made the things people love most! It's like this weird cycle where the pressure to post makes us skip the documentation that would actually make posting easier?

We're finding that having even basic documentation is giving us SO much more to share. Those process videos? People are actually more into them than our finished work sometimes! Who knew our messy middle would be the content gold mine we needed?

This isn't about having a perfect system—none of us have time for that. It's about building tiny documentation habits that save future-us from wanting to throw our tablets out the window when a client asks "can you just tweak that pattern from last season?"

If you've found cool ways to track your design process that don't feel like extra work, please share! We're all figuring this out together, and honestly, it's way more fun that way.

Join us on this documentation journey? We promise it's less boring than it sounds! 😂
