Are you looking to verify the consistency of the information contained within your Building Information Model (BIM)? Are you worried that failure to properly audit your BIM will result in unreliable data output and, as a consequence, false reports? Are you looking for an objective third set of eyes to validate your BIM? If so, we can help.
Flatworld Solutions performs comprehensive BIM model auditing for clients spread across the globe. We have extensive experience in creating BIM models for a large variety of building types, including commercial/residential buildings, prisons, schools, hospitals, water treatment plants, metro stations and industrial plants, among others. We can help you review your BIM model against the intended design and solve any anomalies to give you the best result.
Our BIM Model Auditing Services
We are a leading BIM model auditing service provider and can provide you with accurate, comprehensive, and in-depth auditing of your BIM models. We have experience and expertise with both imperial and metric systems to ensure that all validations including naming standards, detail levels, and other design criteria are correctly documented and complied with.
Our services include -
File Nomenclature Check Services
We perform a check to ensure that files are named appropriately and follow the nomenclature as set out in the initial stage of the project or in the BIM Execution Plan (BEP). Things we check for include -
Revit file names depict the area of the facility that they represent and the discipline.
That linked CAD files are used only for symbols, legends, typical details, and schematics.
That all linked CAD files follow the correct naming convention and that all unused CAD files are removed.
That all families, including the generic ones, follow the family naming convention.
That the 3D model that will be exported to .nwc and .dwg format be redlined by the BIM coordinator together with the BIM team leader.
That all elements have the correct OmniClass and UniFormat code.
Other Services
We also provide the following additional BIM model auditing services -
We ensure that your BIM adheres to best practices for BIM implementation.
We make that the BIM adheres to local building codes.
We ensure compliance with National BIM standards.
We perform model integrity and accuracy verification against the intent of the design.
We carry out design validation and confirmation.
We review the LOD against the scope and objective of the design.
We check the conformity of the model with generated 2D drawings.
We perform model checking/auditing, checking for issues like incorrect object use and space compliance, among others.
Visual Check Services
The 3D BIM models that you have created using Revit or other software will be exported into a viewer. We will then navigate the modeled facility and mark any discrepancies if present. Things we check for include -
Those models should not contain "temporary models" or "option models." If phasing or design options are being used, we check that an appropriate document describing why they exist is present.
That models have a browser organization for views that is intuitive and easy-to-follow. We also check that drawing sheets are included and that personal or temporary views are deleted.
MEP models use MEP systems.
That view templates are used for all views.
That misplaced or flying objects are detected visually.
That models are clean and that the fill patterns, object styles, and line patterns are correctly set up.
That models are accurate and follow appropriate design principles. We ensure that all rooms/areas are modeled as areas or rooms and that they are not filled regions containing manual text. If for some reason, manual areas are calculated, we check that this is clearly mentioned and explained in the drawing sheet.
Clash Check Services
We perform clash detection using Navisworks to pick up discrepancies that even a comprehensive visual check might fail to pick up. The clashes detected in the software allow us to visit the exact location and visualize the situation from an all-discipline point of view. In this way, we can suggest any design changes to be performed at those particular locations. Things we check for in our clash checking process include -
That links are removed and relinked using "shared coordinates" in a separate set of review models. Then we check that the models align with each other after making the corrections.
That models have as few as possible or zero critical warnings, especially related to duplicate items which will affect the quantities.
We compare previous and current clash detection reports and highlight all major issues both resolved and unresolved.
We also perform checking on-screen by creating at least two section lines (or more) through critical areas.
Errors found on-screen are reported to the senior architect, technical manager, and structural engineer to assess whether the issue/s can be resolved internally or whether it needs to be reported to the design consultants or main contractor.
