3D BIM Modeling

Bringing Ideas to Life: 3D Modeling Services for Immersive Visualization and Precision

DevelopCAD provides 3D BIM services that help in the successful implementation of designs and promote clear communication among various teams such as MEP teams, contractors, engineers, and architects. Our Building Information Modeling (BIM) solutions enable the creation of digital representations of both 2D and 3D modeling elements. Each element serves as a parameter that can be used to adjust the design as needed. Our 3D modeling process, within the context of Building Information Modeling (BIM), is a highly efficient method that involves creating digital representations of the physical and functional features of a building or infrastructure. This process is widely used in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. Our 3D modeling outsourcing services aim to provide you with the necessary knowledge and resources to make informed decisions throughout the project, be it for visualizing architecture, detecting clashes, or planning construction.

We are committed to being your trusted partner in success, helping you stay ahead in the competitive construction industry. Our BIM 3D models are often parametric, allowing for easy modification and updating of the model's elements based on specific parameters. This enables better coordination and design iterations.

Our Revit BIM 3D Modeling Services can help companies to enhance their workflows, prevent costly errors, and meet project deadlines. We provide a depth of experience and a commitment to producing top-quality building information models (BIM). Our BIM models can help ensure that the design meets regulatory standards and codes, which is especially important in the AEC industry. By choosing to work with us, you'll gain access to exceptional BIM services that exceed your expectations.

Our 3D BIM services include:

Conversion of concept sketches and 2D drawings to as-built BIM-ready 3D models
CAD to BIM for information-rich 3D building models
3D BIM services for as-built environments
Custom family/library creation for architectural and MEP products and components
Clash-detection with engineering and construction data in NAVISWORKS
3D laser scanning and point cloud to BIM conversion
Support for BIM implementation and virtual construction coordination

Level of Development (LOD 100-500)

The term “Level of Development” (LOD) is used in the context of Building Information Modeling (BIM) to indicate the degree of accuracy and detail of a BIM model at different stages of a building project. The LOD framework was developed jointly by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) and the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC) to provide a standardized language for expressing the level of development of a BIM model. Typically, the LOD is conveyed in a range of numbers between 100 and 500.

LOD 100 - Conceptual Design

LOD 100 is the lowest level of development, frequently employed in the conceptual design stage of the process. To depict the general massing and size of elements, it has generic shapes and forms. LOD 100 is used for early design conversations; however, the model is not very accurate.

LOD 200 - Schematic Design

LOD 200 provides building components in more detail during the schematic design stage. It contains approximations of places, sizes, forms, and quantities. Although LOD 200 is still unsuitable for building, it does improve the visibility and comprehension of the design concept.

LOD 300 - Design Development

LOD 300 is connected with the design development phase. At this level, the BIM model includes accurate and specific information about the size, shape, location, and orientation of building elements. It is suitable for coordination between different disciplines and for generating detailed construction documents.

LOD 350 - Construction Documentation

LOD 350 is utilized at the construction documentation stage and is an extension of LOD 300. It provides more information and detail, such as manufacturing data, connections, and particular components. The model at LOD 350 supports the creation of building documentation for usage in the field.

LOD 400 - Construction

LOD 400 is the level of detail required for actual construction. Accurate amounts, exact dimensions, and detailed information about each component are all included. LOD 400 provides construction, manufacturing, and installation processes.

LOD 500 - As-Built

LOD 500 is the most advanced stage of development and is used to capture as-built circumstances. LOD 500 provides precise data about installed building components in the BIM model, as confirmed by field measurements or scans. It is a trustworthy resource for facility management and upcoming upgrades.

Our LOD services assist the engineers, architects, contractors, and construction firms across enlisted industries:

Residential, commercial, and industrial building construction
Educational and institutional campus construction
Healthcare construction
Recreational constructions such as parks, hotels, resorts, etc.
Infrastructure development such as dams, tunnels, etc.
Transportation industry that includes railways, tunnels, etc.

Company Owner

Thank you for providing the final coordination files and sheeted-up drawings in such a short timeframe. We had already commenced the construction phase, and it would have been a great loss if the areas had not been coordinated.

Company Owner

Our team can confirm that the final issue of Site Views A, B, and C meets our required standards for layout, resolution, and quality.

Lawrence B.

CEO

Impressive work! The drafts are good and match our company standards. We are comfortable outsourcing all of our future CAD requirements to DevelopCAD.

Casey W.

CEO

The BIM model that was submitted for our commercial project was fantastic. My team is currently reviewing the bill of quantities that was also submitted, and we are pleased to inform you that we approve of the work that was done. We are looking forward to moving ahead with the project and hope that it will be as smooth and efficient as the previous one.
