Importance of BIM for Steel Detailers

www.siliconec.com.au

Introduction Structural steel detailing is a critical part of the construction that is used for residential, commercial and industrial buildings. Steel detailing plays a vital role in the construction life cycle, therefore everyone from contractors, fabricators, engineers and architects use it. Structure steel detailing, erection drawings and shop drawings work as a guide for the faster and smooth construction.

Naturally, these drawings require attention and coordination, and that is where BIM modelling services comes in light.

The 3D model helps steel detailer communicate, visualize and analysis with everyone involved in the building project.

They can explore the different construction options and even at the early stage, they get a clear insight into the building.

BIM modeling is beneficial in every aspect of construction.

Some of the BIM benefits are:          

Better collaboration and communication Model based cost estimation Preconstruction building visualization Improved coordination and clash detection Reduced cost and mitigated risk Improved construction scheduling Higher productivity and prefabrication Safer construction sites Better and faster construction Better material and equipment management

Building Information Modeling is an excellent communication tool for the multi-level construction process. The model is used for detecting early-stage clashes when data from different disciplines including architectural, MEP and structural are combined. As a result, the BIM data forms a solid base for eliminating the chances of rework, bringing down the cost, bidding and planning.

FR Detailers are switching to 3D steel detailing solution as it can save lots of time and money. A lot of repetitive detailing work is automated allowing you to focus on things that need more attention and accuracy. BIM model guarantees a single model from start to end and allows the detailers to be more adaptable to any changes easily.

LOD shows the quantity of information in the Building Information Modeling.

Level of detailing begins with LOD 100 that is the conceptual drawings and it goes up to LOD 500. Steel detailers require at least LOD 400 level of development to get full information about nuts and bolts that are ready for fabrication and erection.

By using BIM software, they can get the LOD 400 data that is even helpful in postconstruction as well.
