As an IT-based platform in the construction industry, BIM technology is playing an increasingly important role in optimizing design method, shortening design cycle, reducing design cost, improving design level and quality, and providing technical services for construction projects in their respective full life cycle. The Company boasts a professional team providing BIM design and technical advisory services, able to carry out BIM integrated design, BIM technology research and development and BIM technical consultation and training. It has made outstanding achievements in application of BIM design and consulting to projects.
1.BIM-based Collaborative Design Platform
The Company has established a BIM-based collaborative design platform from three aspects – process, collaboration and management, to effectively realize fine design, significantly improving the design quality and efficiency.
2.Research on BIM Technology Application
The Company has carried out the research on BIM technology application throughout the full life cycle of construction project from design, construction, operation to management, and based on BIM design, made in-depth exploration of the application value of BIM technology for construction projects at all stages.
Parameterized Construction
The digital construction method is organically combined with BIM technology to guide the digital architectural design and construction drawing from the perspectives of architectural form generation and construction logic so as to achieve seamless connection of information from digital architectural design and construction to industrialized processing
Information Transmission in the Full Life Cycle of Buildings
Through research on the digital application of BIM technology at different stages of the project, the Company has summarized the requirements on the depth of models for all stages from planning, design, construction to operation to realize lossless information transmission in the full life cycle of buildings.
3. BIM Technology-based Simulation Analysis
The informatization of building engineering data provides technical conditions for digital simulation analysis. By analyzing and simplifying the design information model database, we use simulation analysis software to analyze the project design features from the aspects of building energy consumption, interior space comfort and safety, etc., and guide and optimize the design so as to ensure the comprehensive quality of the project design.
