Use of BIM and Digital

USE OF BIM AND DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY

The Capella Laboratory structure was delivered in conjunction with PCE’s Digital Delivery Strategy protocols providing Level 2 BIM compliance along with a digital management strategy which also provided real time data at every stage of the process.

BIM modelling was used to collate and display intelligent data about each component part along with the status of that component at any stage of the project. This strategy ensured the integrity of the design data along with providing the project teams with the means to make informed decisions throughout the duration of the project.

The use of BIM was significant in ensuring that the risk of any clashes between the structure and services were eliminated before construction commenced and that accuracy of fit of components was maximised to provide the high-quality requirements for the structure, including basement, allowing the integration of an extremely complex services strategy.
