Desapex Enhances Design Review & Quality Assurance for a $1B Semiconductor Plant with Solibri

  Desapex , a leading digital engineering and a   BSI Associate Consulting   Partner specializing in high-tech industrial facilities, was tasked to setup & run a digital framework for project coordination for state-of-the-art   semiconductor manufacturing   plant in India. The project, valued at over $1 billion, required meticulous design coordination and quality assurance to meet the stringent standards of the semiconductor industry. To ensure the success of this complex project, Desapex adopted Solibri, a cutting-edge   Building Information Modeling (BIM)   validation and quality assurance software, to streamline design review processes and enhance collaboration among stakeholders. Challenges: 1. Complexity of Design:  The semiconductor plant involved intricate systems, including cleanrooms, HVAC, electrical, and process piping, requiring seamless integration of multiple disciplines with reference to structure. 2. Stringent Quality...

Revolutionizing Metro Projects: The Role of BIM in Digitalization

Image
  Introduction As cities grow and populations surge,  metro systems  have become the lifeblood of urban development, driving connectivity, economic growth, and sustainability. These underground arteries not only ease traffic congestion but also serve as catalysts for modernization and urban planning. In this dynamic landscape, digital tools are revolutionizing how metro systems are designed, built, and managed. From advanced modeling software to  AI-powered project monitoring , technology is enabling faster, more efficient, and cost-effective infrastructure development, reshaping the urban environment as we know it. Source: Metro Rail News Building Information Modeling (BIM)  is a digital process that integrates multidimensional information for creating, managing, and sharing detailed information about the physical and functional characteristics of a building or infrastructure project throughout its lifecycle. BIM integrates 3D modeling with data on materials, s...

BIM and IoT Integration: Shaping Smarter and Sustainable Infrastructure

Image
  Sustainability and technological innovation today are no longer the option, but the need of the present fast-evolving world. Building Information Modeling (BIM) integrated with the Internet of Things (IoT) signifies a powerful convergence of synergies that represents the power to revolutionize the design, construction, and management of infrastructure. The digital and physical worlds are bridged through this   synergy : smarter operations and fostering sustainable practices across the lifecycle of infrastructure projects. The Perfect Pair: BIM and IoT What is BIM? Building Information Modeling (BIM)  is a digital representation of the physical and functional characteristics of a building or infrastructure. With a centralized model, BIM supports collaboration among architects, engineers, and contractors with efficiency and accuracy in a project lifecycle-from design through demolition. What is IoT? The Internet of Things is a network of devices with sensors, software, an...

How BIM Supports Achieving Net Zero Targets in Construction

Image
  In today’s construction industry, sustainability is no longer just a buzzword it’s a critical goal. As the world pushes toward reducing carbon emissions and mitigating climate change, net-zero energy buildings are becoming a key target. Achieving   net-zero   means creating buildings that consume only as much energy as they produce. While this may seem like a daunting challenge,   Building Information Modeling (BIM)   is helping make it more achievable than ever. Here’s how BIM is playing a vital role in meeting net-zero targets in the construction industry. What is Net Zero? Before diving into how BIM helps, let's clarify what "net zero" means in the context of buildings. Net-zero energy buildings are designed to produce as much energy as they consume over the course of a year. Achieving this requires reducing energy consumption through energy-efficient design and then offsetting any remaining energy use with renewable energy sources, like solar power. It's a...

How AR & VR are Transforming Construction Industry

Image
  Introduction Today, India is one of the six fastest-growing economies of the world & the ‘ Construction industry ’ serving as a major contributor, is in great need of digitalization. Digital transformation is a key priority for solving challenges in processes, business models, and ecosystems of the construction industry. The global construction industry has always been one of the last industries to adopt new technologies, may it be the  digital twins ,  pre-fabrications , 3D Printing or the AR/VR - all of these buzzing words are in other industries for quite a long time, but now they are being looked at in the perspective of Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry in the recent years, & now, this shift is at a faster pace. ‍ In this direction, The  BIM  (Building information modeling - a process of generating, storing, managing, exchanging, and sharing building information) is acting as a key in digitizing the construction industry, I...
