BIM stands for ‘Building Information Modelling’. It represents the process of collecting all information of a construction process in one summarized model for presentation in a virtual building model. This model includes all relevant information, such as drawings, calculations, specifications, materials lists and planning.
To make this process work properly, all concerned parties need to work according to one code/standard. Barcol-Air follows the European MEPcontent Standard (EMCS), developed by Stabiplan which makes sure that all processed models of different parties are build according to uniform parameters, codes, geometry and connections around the whole of Europe. The EMCS standard matches the international IFC standard.
As a producer of air distribution products, Barcol-Air is involved in the BIM process. Until now we have made 90% of our products BIM-ready which are all downloadable in REVIT format at www.mepcontent.com.
Our BIM partner is Stabiplan, a company with over 20 years of experience and a true BIM specialist with a strategy focusing on the future. Their Stabicad software enables an engineer to design, visualize, control and optimize technical installations with a sophisticated and future proof design. This contributes to an effective development, management and installation process, which results in cost savings and quality.
