This project was a challenge to deliver due to the complex area within L00 and L05 plant area, within a limited footprint, the L05 internal wet plant area was particularly challenging due to the restricted space, the use of Victaulic suction diffusers and discharge pump drops, enabled the primary pumps set ups to work well within the space. Four ASHP were used to produce the heating / cooling on the building, along with a bank of AHU’s and common ventilation header system which made the best use of the space available. The tenant risers offered the opportunity to provide a standard floor by floor valve arrangement which is fully enclosed within the riser space providing adequate space for access and maintenance. The BAF project team where always on hand to answer any queries I had, and the project was delivered in an efficient, cost-effective manner.

Chris Howell BIM Project Manager - BIMTech Engineering

BIMTech Engineering understand what it means to deliver a Stage 5 Design. Specialists in their field, they won’t produce regurgitated consultant Models but Engineered Drawings that have considered Installation, Sequencing, BWIC compliance, Maintenance & Accessibility etc. Not only do they provide another set of eyes to identify Design challenges, they bring solutions to the table also. BIMTech’s Chris Howell is clearly passionate about his work and that comes through in the quality of Drawings produced. This is why we as a business seek to repeat our partnership with BIMTech on future Projects.

Virtual Coordination

Effective coordination is critical to the BIM process. The cycle starts at the pre-design stage and continues, with the help of 3D, through detailed design during which collaboration is the key.

Existing Environment Assets

Laser Scanning

Accurate plans and information are essential to BIM – but there are times when limited information is available. Under these circumstances we use 3D laser scanning of an existing building or site.
