The Office Suite comprises of all amenities to bring an increased economic opportunity to the area. The Building marks the expansion for office suite development. It’s a mixed-use project at the hub of business activity in the fast-growing region. The million dollar investment in the project is to accommodate 120+ small businesses and entrepreneurs.
The office building is anticipated to provide a modern space for business activity without expensive overhead costs. The two-storey building on 35,000 square foot, consists of 120+ office suites, 5 tech conference rooms as well as a co-working space.
The purpose of creating the building is to enable the business owners and entrepreneurs enjoy all-inclusive amenities without the long term commitment of conventional office space. Expected to be completed during 2022 spring, BIM
implementation for the project is executed by BIMPACT during the design development stage for new construction, including 2 Floors, Wall Assemblies and Roof Systems.
BIM Start Date: Nov, 2021
BIM End Date: Feb, 2022
Project Area: 35,000 sq ft

Trade Covered: Architecture
LOD: 400
The Model Element is graphically represented within the Model as a specific system, object or assembly in terms of size, shape, location, quantity and orientation with detailing, fabrication, and assembly. Non graphic information is also included in the Model Element.
Software Used: Revit, 3DS Max
Key Features of the Project:
1. Construction Trailer with Electrical Hook-Up
2. Double Swing Construction Gate
3. Post Driven Chain Link Fence with Fabric Windscreen
Input Data Format - PDF, DWG, RVT
Output Data Format - RVT
Challenges & Solutions
Challenge - Timeline Challenge - Completion of the Project within limited time
Solution – Our engineers completed the project within allotted time, implementing 3D BIM Modeling.
Challenge - Issue Faced with Wet Wall Location & Corridor Wall Type
Solution - We modified the wall between rows of suites as wood stud and kept the corridor 6'-2" clear as applicable for both the floors.
Challenge - Dimension Issue - Several dimensions appeared in fractions
Solution – Sent RFI to client to suggest the process of reducing dimensional issue
BIMPACT’S Value Addition:
Final Model Creation after resolving potential construction issues, generating RFIs & consulting with architects & other project stakeholders.

A significant project executed by BIMPACT. The mixed-use township comprises of 7 buildings, including a 20-storey hotel building, 4 basement levels, with parking space to 1,000 vehicles, office, retail spaces, cultural & entertainment center. The project is a part of the sustainable regeneration in a modern city, integrating local building practices and modern technology in an energy efficient environment.
The project is huge in terms of built-up area. Frequent changes in design and plans lead to errors in construction, overshooting budgetary allocations, leading to excessive delays and work stoppage. The project required collaboration amongst stakeholders spread across the world, including owners, developers, designers, architect, structural engineers, MEP engineer, general contractor, MEP contractors and consultants. It was a bit challenging for BIMPACT to maintain the right balance.
BIM Identified Constructability & Coordination Issues:
1. IFC plan match with elevations, schedules & sections. For example, mismatch between widths of doors in the door schedules with IFC plans.
2. Incomplete information about wall finishes, dimensions, material types, insulation for drainage pipes, fittings, standard clearance, etc.
3. Coordination became a challenge with the introduction of pipes in the middle of the project.
1. Raised code related & constructability issues through RFIs and updated the model based on client responses.
2. Identified maintenance & operations issues during BIM process & raised RFIs to resolve it.
3. Prepared coordinated drawings within allotted cost estimate.
1. Timely Delivery of file including all bulletin changes to stop delay in construction.
2. Maintaining the Quality of BIM Model to save project cost.
3. Issued bulletin changes, though construction schedule remains unchanged.
1. Created a 4D BIM model to track project time-scale, allocate resource, control cost and rework.
2. Facilitated arrangement of tiles with accuracy for minimizing project wastage adopting LOD 400
3. Identified design and constructability issues, facilitating complete coordination amongst trades.
4. Coordinated MEP services with prevalent structure and interior drawings.
5. Optimized builder’s work, slab & wall opening.
6. Prepared innovative shop drawings to support construction crew on-site.
7. Optimized cable tray sizes & routing to match with building codes & save costs & installation time.
8. Modified duct & pipe routing to decrease project cost & eliminate unnecessary fittings improving system efficiency.
9. Embedded services to accelerate site slab casting.
10. Saved material cost & rework at later stages by avoiding work stoppage & providing waste management.
BIMPACT benefitted in terms of data integrity, quality of detailing & higher productivity. The company produced coordinated Revit BIM models and facilitated all AEC stakeholders to check clashes amongst building systems leading to improved project planning. This minimized delay, saving time and money for construction.
