Process adopted by service providing company for execution structural modeling project Well quite an innovative and equally simple process is adopted by the professionals of a service providing company for executing structural modeling process. Structural modeling is one of the most important parts of construction process as it helps in developing effective design for the structural framework of the building in making. For executing structural modeling services, the first initiative is taken by the clients or the client company that requires structural modeling services and hence they make an enquiry at the beginning regarding the project. Once an enquiry is received by service providing company they quickly review it and then ask for necessary specifications from the clients that are required for executing the services. Now the clients are required to provide immaculate specifications to the clients regarding the project and this include both architects’ specifications and structural engineers’ specifications. Apart from this structural shop drawings that are generated during the structural detailing process by the detailers are also provided to the service providing company. With the assistance of structural shop drawings along with architects’ and structural engineers’ specifications the concept of structural design becomes clear to BIM modelers belonging to engineering service providing company. Then with the cooperation of project engineer the design development team of service providing company start developing 3D structural model. Structural model is developed with the assistance of Revit Structure which incorporates all the crucial tools that are necessary for executing structural modeling services. When 3D model is developed in Revit Structure all the members of structural design team can successfully cooperate with each other by using its worksharing feature. When worksharing feature is used a central model is placed in shared location by the team which can be approached by them anytime. And a copy of this model is saved in the local workstations by every team member so that they can work on structural modeling project independently. Application of worksharing method results in the effective development of 3D structural model. Now if required structural drawings can also be extracted from this model and can be provided to clients. In this way effective structural models are created by AEC professionals, which are really helpful in construction and are delivered to clients within specified time.
