BIM: A Game-Changer in Civil Engineering and Construction Industry

Architecture / By

Today, BIM is everywhere in the construction and infrastructure industry. There has been rapid adoption of BIM technology worldwide across the AEC industry. BIM is the buzzword today as more and more engineering professionals are discovering and understanding the game-changing benefits that the technology has to offer. Don’t worry if you know only a little about BIM (Building Information Modeling), this article will tell you about BIM in a nutshell. And yes, you would also discover the potential that BIM offers to the AEC engineering industry. People consider BIM as software, well, this is partially correct, but that doesn’t give a picture in totality. BIM creates virtual models of any project that can help to speed up the construction work, and how exactly does the construction take place? Look at the pie chart that will help you understand better: So, these are the most common benefits that BIM offers. There will be many other benefits that will fall under the umbrella of these benefits. Wondering about the final outcome? The final outcome is these amazing buildings in an incredibly low time. BIM gives more control right from the inception stage and thus, the quality issues are unbelievably low. Building Information Modeling in a Nutshell Building Information Modeling (BIM) is computer software that provides case studies, design services, and other information about existing buildings and infrastructures that have been built in the past. The software also provides insight that helps architects and engineers plan, design, construct, and manage projects of various types. BIM is a beneficial tool for all types of architects and engineers, as well. A Building Information Model characterizes the geometry, spatial relationships, geographic information, quantities and properties of building elements, cost estimates, material inventories, and project schedule. Therefore, Building Information Modelling BIM provides all information associated with the building or facility, including its physical/functional characteristics and project life cycle information, in a series of “Smart objects”. BIM Modeling Services For Civil Engineering Using BIM to help civil engineers with road designs will also help identify issues easily and quickly. Design changes with highway plans can be synchronized easily, as well. The finalized 3D model can be presented to contractors to use in the construction of roads with little to no issue. Civil engineers that use BIM also have the ability to generate future surface earthwork volumes, drafted cross-sections, material totals, and more. Even more, civil engineers also have the ability to use BIM modeling services to help make design deliverables. This comes right from the information model itself. Then, the information can be leveraged for capacity take-off, as-built evaluations, construction sequencing, and operation and conservation to accomplish ideal roadway designs. By accepting and using this sort of modeling, municipalities, federal governments, and state government agencies are able to better plan, design, build, and manage transportation projects. BIM offers a way to do all these things in a quick, keen, and more economical manner. The 3D BIM Models of the buildings are made digitally. These models are given interesting textures, colors, and artistic effects that are prerequisites to every project. BIM just enables to build of the structure virtually. This virtual model is the representation of your actual building to be constructed. Other elements like windows, walls, stairs, etc. can be added. In a way, you are just prototyping. Engineers just love this because BIM has made the process very smooth. Engineers do acknowledge the fact that simulations are necessary for this field. Various forces do act on the structure, so the effects of these forces have to be taken care of well in advance. BIM does that like a cakewalk. And changes can be made easily. If you make a change in the model, other relevant entities like elevations, floor plans, etc. will reflect the change. So, the change management is taken care of! BIM has an information model, that will tell you about various standard practices, and therefore, compliance is just made easy. One must acknowledge that the conservation of the environment has become a priority. And BIM is a technology that can reduce the impact of the infrastructure on the environment. So, designs with better sustainability can very well be implemented in the structures with the help of BIM. So far, so good. But, what about designs? Does BIM help with designs? Yes, it does. BIM can help you in creating visualizations that are very realistic, and you can just accommodate various designs virtually. Does this help you? Well, it should be because you will have better chances of convincing your clients with impactful presentations. Now, it does help, doesn’t it? BIM can aid you with cool presentations that can sway your stakeholders positively. BIM can let you have better control over the information. And information is a weapon in today’s era. And data management in BIM has so many fields like cost control, manpower management, building life-cycle, etc. that are very supportive for various tasks. So, with all that said, do you want to implement BIM and move light-years ahead of others? Indovance can help you as an outsourcing partner for BIM. Indovance offers BIM services that can help you better with planning and controlling the project. You will naturally save costs and time.

Pipe network using Civil 3D: Designing, calculations, and analysis made easy

CAD Info, Civil, Industry Info and CAD Tips / By

We are constantly creating designs in modern Civil Engineering, from construction to home building and pipe networks, and we want to derive meaningful analysis and calculations from them. In the case of complex infrastructures like pipe networks, this is more prevalent. To execute pipe network projects more efficiently you need tools that will facilitate the design process, like Civil 3D. Autodesk’s Civil 3D is software integrated with multiple tools for surface modeling, corridor modeling, and designing utility systems. Users are also able to create construction sheets, perform QTOs (quantity take-offs), and more. Advantage of using Civil 3D for pipe networks Civil 3D pipe network features can be used to generate 2D and 3D models of utility systems like storm sewers, sanitary sewers, water pipelines, and more. The key advantage of Civil 3D is its adaptation to your local design conditions and standards, which facilitates your design process immensely. Top 10 Features and Benefits of Civil 3D Effective use of Civil 3D by designers will help them optimize their work. For example, in the case of a settlement with more than 30 km of network, your engineers can draw all long sections in a very short time. Hydraulic calculations are also quick and easy, which allows you to change parameters and check results many times. Civil 3D offers advantages for pipe network on different fronts: 3D models for better visualization Civil 3D allows designers to create 3D models of pipe networks, which boosts visualization and further helps in identifying potential clashes or conflicts between pipes, structures, and other elements in the project. 3D Models also help reduce errors and ensure high accuracy of designs. Improved accuracy Civil 3D has built-in tools that can automatically calculate pipe slopes, and invert elevations, and adjust other critical parameters required for designing piping networks. This helps designers create highly accurate drafts that conform to regulatory requirements. Automated design Among Civil 3D’s host of features, there are some for automated design which can help designers quickly create and modify pipe networks. For example, the software can automatically generate pipe networks based on user-defined criteria, such as pipe diameter, slope, and inverted elevation. Stormwater management Civil 3D can easily perform a variety of stormwater management tasks using hydraulics and hydrology tools. Piping network-related extensions like Autodesk Storm and Sanitary Analysis, Hydraflow Storm Sewers Extension, Hydrawflow Hydrographs Extension, and more, can be added into Civil 3D for a more comprehensive analysis of different piping-related designs. Collaboration Multiple stakeholders can collaborate on a project using Civil 3D, which makes coordination easier and ensure that everyone is effectively working towards a common goal. This leads to a reduction of errors and timely completion of the project. Civil 3D also has interoperability features. Civil 3D easily links with different CAD file formats and its data can be imported on BIM (Building Information Modelling) software like BIM 360 and Revit. Designers can also check for interferences, collisions, or clashes between different parts of a single pipe network. Overall, the use of Civil 3D in piping networks can help improve accuracy, reduce errors, and streamline the design process, which can ultimately lead to a more successful project. Designers are also able to establish a dynamic link between different project parts and elements, allowing corrections in one part to reflect automatically in other parts. This functionality increases your overall product immensely and works as a fast tool for exploring design alternatives, protecting you from unintentional mistakes.

Indovance partnered to develop Solar Panel project on 314 Acres of Land!

Industry Info and CAD Tips / By

Did you know the energy, the Sun provides for one hour is enough to generate electricity for a complete year globally? However, we are not using even a fraction of it to our benefit. Harnessing solar power can bring in a very significant change to our ecosystem. But all these boils down to just one thing. Who will make it possible? One of the companies in the USA took up a work of setting up large solar panels on a gigantic area of land. They needed assistance for the project planning and drafting through CAD software where Indovance partnered with them to complete the project in time. Here is how Indovance helped setting up 3500 Solar Panels on a land as huge as 314 acres! Client Overview Our client, a leading solar equipment company based in the USA, deals in installations of solar panels. They were looking for an outsourcing partner to help them in managing all the software related work for solar installation such as Drafting, Proposing Site, Layouts, Contour Mapping, etc. The client liked the project management cycle that we follow and was quick enough to become a long-term business partner so that any sudden spike at work does not make any harm to the ongoing work process and still get the work delivered on time. Our client was a leading solar equipment company from the USA.  Client Input We received data in a pdf format where the existing site conditions, such as property boundary, wetland area and contour levels were shown for quick reference. All the work needed to be done keeping in mind the given inputs in Civil3D software. Client Requirement Client wanted us to prepare a Construction Document Set (A set of production drawings). Which will include a Site plan, Grading plan, Layout plan and the Existing site condition plan. Challenges Observed Since the project had some very strict standard guidelines and were high on deadlines, we built a team of members who already had expertise and experience in working on such projects. This made us save a huge amount of time on training hours. Also, a backup resources were deployed to accommodate any additional deliverables. Moreover, team had to be abreast with the US construction code and standards. Indovance Solution Architect We made all the sheet with the expected details that were required. A total of 3 main files and their multiple sub-files were created for the clarity in understanding and execution of work. Existing Condition – All existing conditions giving under the civil base plan. This includes all the natural and man-made features already present on-site such as contours, stream, pond, trees etc. Tree Clearance – Herein, all the unnecessary trees had to be cut to propose solar panels and show proper fence line for security purpose and Calculation of the area. Layout and Material – Proper site layout need to be done here, by calculating the site distances from all sides according to the standards mentioned and put all the callouts and utility poles wherever necessary. Grading and Erosion control – Propose contours if needed for a conducive environment. Place the electrical equipment area, utility poles and other solar panel details. Also, propose Stilt fencing for erosion control for not damaging the existing condition.

Current Transportation Engineering scenario and how to make it more User-friendly?

Current Transportation Engineering scenario and how to make it more User-friendly?

Civil, Uncategorised / By

Transportation Engineering is the most creative and at the same time the most analytical branch at work front – very critical working required! Transportation is a daily affair in human life. On an average a person spends as much as 19 full workdays of the year in commuting from one place to another. So, isn’t it a necessity to construct and sustain roads that are easily manageable by the authority as well as easily accessible to the people? Bringing in the statistics 10% of the gross domestic product is in the hands of transportation in USA. One-third of America’s roads are in the rural areas and approximately 45% of the highways are overcrowded. Cruising may account to 10% of the local circulation as drivers takes as long as 20 mins to find parking space. Major categories included in transportation are – Highways Railways Port and Harbor Airports Pipeline engineering Present loopholes in transportation Transportation involves hard sciences as well as soft sciences. Transportation is amongst the key economic activities, besides, it’s service ramification, transportation cost for the substantial increase of the business. But to make it a success we need to work on the infrastructure needed for the modern transportation systems. Traffic congestion and parking difficulties creates hindrance due to overcrowding of space, since footfall per sq.mt is not maintained. Demands for parking space is increasing and not getting fulfilled due to lack of planning. Parking and congestion are interrelated! This is due to poorly synchronized traffic signals. Longer commuting time is spent for travelling from one place to another. Improving public transport systems thus enthralls the population with options saving them time, money and the luxury to travel with comfort. Markets, Agoras, Parades and procession community interactions, etc. are the publicly owned spaces that are always free to access. High level of traffic gets in between the other  ways of sustainable transportation. People tend to walk or cycle less than the earlier days. This is due to traffic congestion. Evolving technologies such as Capital and Operating costs and Smart parking services can come to rescue in near future. By evolving these technologies, it is also necessary to consider the sustainable outcome of transportation. One of the best solutions to lower its effect is providing sustainable transportation, which is measured by providing transportation efficiency as well as keeping in mind the hazardous impacts the environment and climate faces. In short, few measures that should be taken that speaks of a healthier eco-system. Sustainable Transportation Sustainable transportation work w.r.t social, environment and climate impacts. It has the power to feed itself with renewable sources of energy. There is no agreed evidence of how a sustainable city should look like. It is a necessity to meet the needs of the present without sacrificing the future. Today 55% of the world population and by 2050, 68% of the world population will start living in the urban areas. Sustainable transportation is one that speaks of a much larger and greater benefits of humankind. Indovance Expertise We are into this field of engineering providing drafting and modeling services since last 16 years and have sustained through all the thick and thin, giving impeccable results to our clients not giving a reason to worry. We are up for increasing our work portfolio more and are working towards it.

Residential Subdivision – Process and Role of Indovance Inc.

Civil / By

Developing a barren land from scratch to a perfect residential project can be a tedious process. With the number of parties and conditions involved, it can be both, time consuming and expensive. However, following a right process, understanding the norms & local laws can help and prove to be a guide in the course. Let’s understand the entire process step-by-step. What is Residential Subdivision? The term subdivision, in Civil Engineering context, can be explained as, division of a tract or a lot into two or more plats, lots, sites or other divisions of land. It can be with the purpose of sale or construction of residential or industrial project. There are different rules, regulations and standards in different states/cities which one must consider before we start the project development process. Types of Residential Subdivision – Single family development Mixed use development Cluster development Planned multi-family development Process of Residential Subdivision? Though the process for subdivision may vary slightly project to project, the standard milestones for the process can be outlined as below. Pre-purchase As name suggests, this is the obvious first stage in the process of subdivision. A developer needs to know the exact details about the land property in question, for example – the zoning category of land (residential, industrial or commercial), land development design manual, drainage design manual, lot criteria for single family/multifamily etc. These specifications may vary state or city wise and must be confirmed from the local governing body. Concept stage Once the details are acquired and confirmed from the local governing body, next step is to come up with a concept. What can you build on the site? How many units? What can be potential restrictions? Here, the plat preparation needs to be completed with utmost accuracy. Before you decide upon what can be constructed, you must first assess the local council’s development and planning policies and develop plan in accordance with predefined by local governing body policies. It also involves details like, property land boundary, defining possible open spaces, identifying the slops and even/uneven grounds, internal roads, lot design etc. It is also called as preliminary plat preparation and once completed, it is sent to the city governing body office for approval. Working drawings and documentation Once approval is received from local governing body office, the most important stage is to create working design and drawings of actual site. This is the most critical stage in the process and must be executed with precision. The site details such as final plat, paving plan, grading plan, earthwork calculation, hydrological calculations, storm pipe designs & analysis, sewer and water network, erosion control plans are drawn with its exact specification. Software tools like AutoCAD Civil3D/Carlson Civil/Bentley can create exact working drawings for you and these can serve two objectives for you – It works as instruction guide to builder on what to build Considered as a document to be submitted for a construction certificate or a building permit Construction & Completion Once the approval is received from the local governing body and financials are worked out, construction can be started. On each stage of the construction, it is important to check, the work is going on as planned and according to the working drawings. How Indovance can support? Indovance Inc, is trusted partner for global companies for their design and drafting requirements, may it be for residential, industrial or commercial project development. We can support you right from concept design to delivering the accurate working drawings to be submitted to local governing body.
