BIM Services

At Essential BIM we realise the need of our clients is more than just a few simple hints and tips, and specific high quality content. Sometimes they have the need for High Quality project help whether just an extra help to help model a small area of their project or to complete a full model from scratch.

Please follow the links below to discover more about the value that Essential BIM can bring to you project through our additional BIM Services:

 

As you will have seen from our High Quality Families for sale our Team at Essential BIM is more than capable of producing any family for any specific need. We will include Parameters as and where needed to include Informative Meta Data, Physical Model Control and Material Finishes for individual components for visualisation purposes.

 

Our Team at Essential BIM specialise in As-Built BIM Ready Modelling, We have worked alongside some of the UK’s largest Architectural and surveying companies to produce many As-Built Models ranging from small residential properties, to heritage and conservation buildings right through to super sized commercial and industrial buildings. We are capable of producing models from raw theodolite and traditional measured survey data, 2D CAD drawings and even 3D Laser Scanned point cloud data. Our Projects are generally produced using Revit but through IFC developments can easily be exported to ArchiCAD, Bentley, Tekla, Microstation or Vector Works. We have access to top of the range surveying equipment for 3D Laser Scanning, this enables us to capture as-existing conditions to high resolution point cloud data ,while ensuring accuracy tolerances are exceptional.

 

When a Large development is in consideration it is often necessary to provide a Rights to Light Survey of the sites surrounding area. Through the use of Laser Scanning we can quickly survey street elevations to create accurate 3D models of the surrounding environment to any level of detail required. The models can range from simple Mass Modelled elements to reflect the overall size and geometry of Structures, to detailed models with Balconies, Window/doors with glazing bars and mullions, wall crowning, chimneys etc.

 

Sometimes it is great to see the surrounding context of a site. With our cost effective service, large areas can be easily produced as 3D models with topography and basic detail for the likes of buildings, trees, roads pavements etc. These models look great when used to help fill a scene to show a proposed development in it’s surrounding context. The level of detail produced accurately masses structures to give a very accurate representation of an area which can be analysed to help design for new build or town planning.

 

  • High Detail Construction models for documentation.

Essential BIM’s team consist of Architectural Technicians and Technologists who have worked in the Architectural Industry for over 10 years, producing construction Packages and Working Drawings for some of the worlds largest Architectural Companies, we know exactly how a building should work, function and perform. We are more than capable of producing conceptual mass models for feasibility or produce High Detail models for construction issue based on 3rd party information such as structural Engineers details or Architectural Construction Details. If required we can work closely with Architects to produce these high detailed models for future use such as FM (Facility Management) and PM (Project Management) through construction phases.

 

As well as producing a building in a BIM format we can also dress the rooms to give clients and designers an accurate idea of how the space can be used. We can produce high quality visualisations which are perfect for use on websites especially for the likes of Estate agents to make a property stand out above the rest. Due to our skill and expertise these kinds of images can be produced very quickly and at little cost, which can easily be justified by the extra added attention the image will grab. Whether you are looking to sell a property, tender for an interior design project, impress a client or simply want to have a good idea of how your space can be used, this service is perfect for you.
