MEP Design

  • MEP Design

In construction project of recent days Building Information Modeling (BIM) is extremely important. BIM services do not help to provide digital picture of building only but it also helps to add greater levels of collaboration and interoperability effectively between the different disciplines(architectural, civil, structural, mechanical and electrical). One another most important advantages of this technology against CAD is, it gives designers chance to implement more task by means of computer so that it decreases human based mistakes, waste of time and cost.

Steps of MEP Design (Illustration with the Sample Project):

Sample Project: Neftcilər Mall, Baku / Azerbaijan

 

Preparing Model

Initially, model is prepared using Building Information Model technology according to architectural 2d (AutoCAD) drawings (See: Photo - 2).
Key information for this step are (as an input):

⋆ Type of project (Factory, Hospital, Hotel, Restaurant and etc.)

⋆ Material information (Walls, Windows, Glass, Door and etc.) and their technical parameters (heat conduction coefficient - k, Thickness, Thermal Density, SHGC of Glasses and etc.)

⋆ Coordinates and orientation of project

⋆ Description of rooms and spaces

 

Entering MEP information

Afterwards, to implement Energy Analyzes (Heating and Cooling Load Analyze) of model correctly, we are adding all below important information for each space and zone.

⋆ Outdoor Design Condition of location (Yearly minimum and maximum temperature, humidity and wind speed values).

⋆ Indoor Design Condition (Required temperature, humidity and outdoor air rate values)

⋆ Facility schedule values (daily and weekly occupancy schedule, lighting schedule and other equipment usage schedule)

 

Implementing Energy Analyzes

For the heating and cooling load analyze we are using latest ASHRAE technology RTS – Radiant Time Series (See: Photo - 3).

 

MEP Design

Finally, to meet required calculated heating and cooling loads we are choosing most proper MEP devices and systems. During MEP design we are considering ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning), SMACNA (Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors National Association), National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), IPC (International Plumbing Code) and IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) standards. All equipment, ventilation ducts, pipes, electric trays location and sizes will be prepared 3D and presented to Client. All design details will be clear for Client before proceeding to construction phase. For sample 3D presentation see Photo – 4.
