HOW TO START THE MODEL FROM SCRATCH

IF, THERE IS NO MODEL FROM CLIENT, REFERENCE IS FCD ONLY

1. Get the Coordinates of lot boundary, and setting out of gridline in the lot
Para makita mo na kaagad saan location ng mga gridlines sa lote

2. Ayusin na yung lot base sa true north, para naka set na ito once kuhain yung mga coordinates ng
bldg.
3. Set-out na mga columns
Note: Size ng column dapat reference is structural column schedule, Setting-out ng Column
(location nya) base dapat sa archi plans na column setting-out.
If wala nitong column setting-out sa FCD, need ito irequest sa consultant, otherwise mali mali
ang location ng column

Note: Kunin ang model ng column kay Struct or kay BIM, then saka icheck yung mga setting out
ng columns.

4. Next is, layout the building perimeter, check dimensions ng building perimeter from gridlines.
Then if okay na, saka mag model ng interior layout
Note: Hingin na din ung model ng structural para malink na yung slab at beams sa model.

5. Unahin mga wall partitions. Make sure na yung interior dimensions ng kada room ang masunod,
if there will be discrepancy, RFI agad para si consultant mag decide what to do.

Note for Walls:

- Make sure na yung pag model ng walls is naka base na kung paano mo ito ipresent sa sheeting
or layout, para yung mga wall tagging is naka base na din sa wall naming mo, pati yung mga
hatch ng walls para sa legend madali na lang ipresent
- Check if applicable na yung naka lagay sa model yung structure ng wall, like if may plastering,
may paint, etc.
- Wall Height should be under slab or beam soffit, then sa floor naman nasa slab level dapat.

6. After ang walls, next na yung Doors and Windows

Note: Check lang lagi sa Schedule

7. Model na din yung floor at Ceiling, per room na lang para sa tagging per room din
Note: While nagmomodel, if may makitang discrepancy for example yung beam depth is
lumabas na beyond ceiling height, need ito i-RFI para si consultant ulit mag decide

8. Next would be Stairs and Ramps, if there is

Note:
- Stair structure either concrete or steel, should be based on the structural plans (thickness of
stringer, sizes of stringer)
- Stair thread and riser base from archi, if iba sa struct, archi shall govern
 - Stair finishes (meaning top finish or layer) base from archi
- Then last to model is the railing and finishes
Same concept kapag sa ramp naman

9. Other things na need imodel – Roof Structure, Toilet Details (like fixtures and accessories), etc.

10. For Buildings na multi-level. Then always check floor to floor height from FCD.

WHICH IS WHICH
Sa mga deliverable, usually may conflicts kung sino mag govern per trades.

1. WALL DESIGNATION OR WALL SETTING-OUT

– height, thickness, and wall setting-out (location) archi ang mag govern
– sa details, if CHB or RC Wall, ang details is base sa masonry notes na nasa struct plan
– If drywall, ang details is meron tayo sa standard details, pero pwede din if meron si supplier. If
walang ibang reference, mag research, pacheck na lang sa mga consultants natin (Sir Gibo,
Ma’am Maria and Ma’am Madonna or Sir Wata)

2. FLOOR FINISH & FLOOR ELEVATION

– archi lahat mag govern dito, unless otherwise sabihin or may instruction si Consultant na ibang
trade ang masusunod.

3. REFLECTED CEILING PLAN

– ceiling height, archi masusunod, pero mababago pa ito depende sa clash free na CSD.
– ceiling structure (ceiling enclosure like ficem or gypsum board) archi mag govern
– lighting, auxiliary, fire pro (mga devices sa ceiling) – si MEP mag govern kung ilang piraso at
kung anong klase ng ilaw ito or devices.
– pero alignment dapat si Archi ang mag govern, meaning mga location ng ilaw, arrangement ng
ilaw sa ceiling

Note: RULE of THUMB

Basta kung sino nag design ng trade na iyon, automatic sya ang mag govern
