_.WHY WE DO 3D DESIGN FOR M&E SERVICES


TO REDUCE PLANT SIZE
Reduce space wastage and produce a more compressed plant

DO NOT NEED TRAINED ENGINEERS OR WORKERS IN ENGINEERING DRAWINGS
No more complicated drawing convention or hidden line that requires imagination. Able to rotate entire plant to any angle hence simple to check visualy

3D MODELS NEEDED FOR OTHER ANALYSIS
Pipe stress analysis, energy modeling and computational fluid dynamics ( pipeworks, ecotect, caeser)

BETTER MAINTENANCE SPACE PLANING
For clearer visualization by maintenance team before actual construction

_.CHALLENGES IN PRODUCE 3D DESIGN

CLIENT NOT PAYING FOR IT
Most client expect the consulting engnieers to do it for free. Client choose not to understand that the consulting engineers have completed the shop drawing for contractors and the material list is ready for procurement. This cost from the contract should be given to the consulting engineer for projects using VDC

REQUIRE MORE TIME AND SOFTWARE COST TO PRODUCE 3D MODELS COMPARE 2D MODELS.
The design engineers are actually constructing for the contractor in virtual environment. Logistic, material size and crash analysis resolved at tender drawing stage.

TOO MANY SCEPTICS.
Too many clients and consultants was cheated by previous generation of “gimmick 3d software”. Which enquire them to have a fully R & D team to develope all components library hence they are sceptical to VDC today.

_.WHY USE REVIT

EASY TO CONNECT PIPES AND FITTINGS
Wiremesh pipes are difficult to connect in 3d space

EASY TO RESIZE
Automatic resizing of all fittings when pipe size change

DOWNLOADABLE COMPONENTS
Traditional CAD wiremesh component are not standard components. You need to build it yourselve. However, Revit components are downloadable for free.

ECOTECT BUILT IN
Energy modelling software already built in hence save time and money, do not need to remodel. it includes energy, lux level modeling and suncast modeling. suitable for green building analysis.

REALISTIC RENDERING
Do not need 3d studio or 3d max to provide realistic rendering.

CLASH DETECTION
Architectural, structural, mechanical and electrical cross platform clash detection builted in.

COMPATIBLE PLATFORM FOR ALL
Previous 3d software for architectural, structural, mechanical and electrical are not competible or strong in 1 sector and weak in another. Revit are evenly develop in all these areas.
