3D Modeling & BIM

By using the latest software, MEP Engineers can design full mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems in three dimensions. 

A 3D model of the duct work and piping can significantly improve coordination during design and improve the construct-ability of the final product.  When a design is more thoroughly detailed, the contractor will be more likely construct the systems as the engineer intended.

Building information modeling, or BIM, is the latest technology in the industry.  Experts believe BIM models will eventually be tools for owners to use to keep track of maintenance and visualize changes as renovations occur. 

3D Models can also be used to create interior perspective renderings, or virtual tours through the building.
