During the initial bidding process through public or private bidding, the development of a model prior to carrying out this act allows for a real estimate of the cost of materials and equipment, and the preparation of a real model for permitting, land purchase and presentation processes. s chedule.īasic Plans for Tender, Initial Offer. It works as a basis for the development of applications to obtain real-time access to model information, minimizing communication time between project stakeholders to comply with the project schedule. Another benefit of the BIM is that it can be used in existing electrical substations for future extensions, develop asset control, visualization of all the infrastructure and equipment in a dynamic model which will allow to develop an exact record of these.
It allows to have a real and visible model for the request of economic-financial resources of the project, to know the execution time of the work based on the magnitude thereof, optimization of land use, for the purchase of the necessary land for the execution of the work, to be able to carry out the environmental impact studies with a real model, consult cost of materials and everything that involves the construction of the work. Facilitating an integrated design process that allows multiple disciplines to work in parallel, avoiding collisions and saving time and costs.īenefits of the BIM for an Electric Sub-Station: The BIM is the present and future for any infrastructure work, in the case of electrical substations the BIM allows to develop an exact calculation of everything that involves the project, starting from the basic engineering, achieving in this way to have a route in all aspects defined before the call for the delivery of the economic offer for a bidding process.
In addition to what has been described above, the BIM developed under Autodesk's Revit program is perfectly compliant, allowing to work collaboratively, easily, dynamically and an important point is that having the model allows transparency in any audit process from the beginning of the elaboration process from the same to the construction and delivery of the project, in a short time and simple computational resources. The objective of the BIM for the construction of an Electric Substation is initially to have a roadmap defined from the beginning of the basic engineering for the tender or bidding process, anticipate the quantities necessary for the procurement of civil and electromechanical works. Introduction: This document allows to describe the benefits of Autodesk Revit program in the elaboration of an Electric Substation either under new or existing design of any power and voltage level.
