BIM Overview

Alumasc have now created BIM (Building Information Modelling) files for the core Harmer Building Drainage Range.

All AWMS BIM files to date have been created using Autodesk Revit 2015, allowing users the freedom to work in Revit 2015 or more recent versions of the software. BIM files created are Revit ‘Family’ files.

All of the AWMS Harmer BIM files are modelled to achieve an accurate external space envelope and connection detail, but with file sizes that increase with model detail, they have been stripped of non-essential details such as logos, small radii, internal strengthening ribs, fasteners & fixings.

BRE Green Guide to Specification

The Green Guide to Specification provides easy-to-use guidance on making the best environmental choices when selecting construction materials and components. Materials and components are assessed in terms of their environmental impacts, within comparable specifications, across their entire life cycles. This accessible and reliable information has been put together to assist those involved in the design, construction and management of buildings to reduce the environmental impacts of their properties.
