Cutting Edge Technology Powered by Intelligent Solutions
While most architects that develop the design concept for new buildings or the restoration or refurbishment of existing buildings may have extensive experience with 3D tools, many lack the experience to undertake an effective, fully-integrated as-built process. As-built documenting best practices continue to evolve, and partnering with a leading As-built services provider, like Building Documenting Solutions, can dramatically improve your project’s efficiency, reduce wastage, and stay within budget parameters.

MEP Asbuilts
MEP stands for Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing. MEP as-built drawings are an essential process in any project, especially to maintain a project’s lifecycle after construction has ended. In order to do that, high-quality and accurate MEP drawings are used to help communicate information regarding the construction, installation, and function of MEP components by utilizing familiar symbols, units of measurement, and notation systems.
2D/3D Building Asbuilts
2D/3D BUILDING ASBUILTS
As-builts are sets of detailed drawings that reflect modifications made during the construction process of buildings that deviates from the original design. They document what the existing conditions are and can be produced as a 2D drawing set or a 3D model showing size, shape, and location.
The final sets of as-built drawings can be useful for design, construction, renovation, asset management, and building records as they hold important information, such as:
◊ Design changes
◊ Field changes
◊ Any modification to the final project
If you have 3D models of your site, then you can create site safety procedures as well as maintenance zoning requirements.
Clash Detection Services
In Building Information Modeling (BIM), clash detection is the technique of identifying if, where, or how two parts of the building (e.g., plumbing and walls) interfere with one another. It is used in pre-construction and design phases in the field to prevent construction issues from happening in the first place and executed through a highly sophisticated and computerized analysis of multiple 3D models.
Drone Site Mapping
Drone mapping is an aerial survey conducted by a drone and specialist cameras, which can include RGB (for photogrammetry), multispectral, thermal or LiDAR sensors. This combination of drones and high-resolution cameras enables the collection of highly-accurate data that can help to build high-resolution, centimeter-accurate 3D and 2D maps and models extremely quickly.
BIM for Fabrication
BIM stands for Building Information Modeling, which is a process for creating and managing information on a construction project throughout its entire life cycle using a combination of information-rich 3D models and associated structured data such as product, execution, and handover information. BIM-based practices promote the integration of design, manufacturing, and construction processes. This enables higher transparency, better collaboration, and interoperability among stakeholders in the digital fabrication process.
Building Energy Analysis
Running a building energy analysis allows you to measure a building’s energy performance by calculating how well the integration of that building’s form, systems, and envelope performs under the surrounding environmental conditions. Performing this analysis on a building design through all phases helps to ensure that you are constantly working towards the most energy-efficient building possible. Energy simulation can help analyze the movement of energy in, out, and through the rooms and volumes in a building model. This information can help designers make better informed, cost-effective decisions that improve the performance and reduce the environmental impact of buildings.
