Case Study – BIM in 4-story Hotel Building – USA

The construction of a 4-storey hotel is another major project and case study developed by United BIM (USA), a BIM modeling services company, MEP Coordination and more. The project shows the need for BIM for its execution with the inclusion of 3D modeling and MEP coordination. 

ABOUT PROJECT

Residence Inn, located in Hamden, CT was a new construction development project of a 4-story hotel building. The significant challenge in this project was a design execution and complicated roofing. It involved multi-slope roofing which required accurate modeling skills and expertise to execute it with precision and significant speed. We were glad to be part of this project as a BIM partner, assigned with BIM execution involving 3D modeling.

PROJECT BRIEF

The scope of this hospitality project consisted of creating a BIM Models of the 4-story hotel building. It included the 3D modeling of design disciplines i.e. Architectural, Structural, MEPFP. After the initial modeling phase, we assisted in design- MEP Coordination, identifying the possible clashes in the design and resolving it.

PROJECT SKILLS & EXPERTISE

The complicated roofing structure demanded a keen exposure to micro modeling and detailed understanding of Revit tools and techniques. We achieved the created Architectural Model with accurate dimensional precision through gradual design iteration and close collaboration and communication with the designers. We used modeling software like Revit AEC collection, Navisworks, Bluebeam, Tekla, 3D Studio Max. We followed our standard quality checks & practices to assure the quality of project drawings.
