The vision for the future - Innovative software to revolutionize architecture
Excelize Group of Companies driven by the unprecedented vision of Ar. Sonali Dhopte has been simplifying the most complex architectural projects with the help of innovative software and BIM (Building Information Modeling) technology. The esteemed company renders its services to clients in India, US, UK, Australia, Europe and Middle-East.
- (1888PressRelease) November 19, 2015 - In its recent conference, the renowned architectural service firm aptly brainstormed about how innovative technology and robust software has been changing architecture in its face. The evolution of software in this field is for everyone to see and admire. There was a time when architects and engineers had to draw 2D sketches by hand. The use of 2D CAD in 1963 with GUI changed everything. This was the beginning of a new potent tool that was going to help architects build with more power and ease.
The creation of 2D/CAD AutoCAD empowered the architects to plan the design of the buildings with more efficiency and accuracy. Like in every other field, computers once again proved to be a boon in the architectural field. Prior to this, architects felt limited with the resources they had, having to do much of the planning, designing and managing in their heads. The advent of technology like BIM has changed the perception of construction as human can now give life to any figment of imagination through the use of specialized software.
Everything is a possibility now! Some of the software aptly touched upon in the conference was Autodesk Revit, Vector Works, Bentley AECOSim, and ArchiCAD. Panelists agreed that STAAD.Pro V8i has become a premiere 3D structural analysis and design engineering software used by the best in the industry. The benefits of using MEP for better clash detection and reduction of errors were also discussed.
Now, the time has passed from 2D/3D to 4D, 5D and 6D BIM. With BIM modeling an architecture firm can do:
• Programming
• Conceptual Design
• Detailed Design
• Analysis
• Documentation
• Fabrication
• Construction 4D/5D
• Construction logistics
• Operation and Maintenance
• Demolition
• Renovation
Furthermore, a detailed discussion took place about the 7 dimensions of BIM including
• 2D - XY Plane
• 3D - XYZ Plane
• 4D - Time
• 5D - Cost
• 6D - Facilities Management
• 7D - Green Building Analysis
These dimensions of Building information modeling also helps in Clash Detection, Resolution, Quantity Takeoff, Remote Project Monitoring, Material Management, Facilities Management, as well as Laser Scanning for apt Disaster Management.
Finally, the discussion moved over to what the future holds for architecture using BIM. With the proper usage of BIM, cloud computing, computer aided manufacturing, Pre-fabrication, 3D printing of homes will all be a reality.
Excelize Group of Companies as efficient BIM Consultants has executed its visionary ideas for large complex and prestigious projects for Tata Housing Residential High Rise and TCS - IT Park, India. Excelize's clients include Godrej, TCS, Tata Housing, Brigade Group, Larsen & Toubro, ASF, DB Reality, TAJ Group, DSK Group, Gammon, The Wadhwa Group, K Raheja Corp, Ahuja Constructions to just name a few. This is a company that believes in excellence and will revolutionize use of technology in architecture for good.
