We were asked to deliver installation ready mechanical services model and drawings for two primary schools and one secondary school in the North West of England.  Working as part of a larger team of Architects, Structural, Furniture Specialists, Electrical and Fire Sub-contractors each working in their own software packages, we had a combination of IFC and Revit files to coordinate against. The MEP model was developed from redline mark-ups supplied by our client and the end product was a detailed MEP model with locations of all items of plant, pipes, ducts and cables trays using specific objects representing actual intended plant and equipment in positions that had been spatially coordinated. The completed models were federated in Navisworks Manage for clash detection and the 2D installation drawings were generated from the models, annotated and fully compliant with the client’s internal drawing standards.
