DE: PMA 604 BIM FOR MEP PROJECTS
2 0 0 2
Course Objective:
This course discusses the application of building information modelling (BIM) for mechanical,
electrical and plumbing (MEP) systems. It covers the benefits of BIM for coordinating MEP
projects. This course also develops the capability to analyze and evaluate alternative designs for
real-world MEP projects using BIM tools in order to optimise cost and energy consumption.
1 Understand the various applications of BIM for MEP projects.
2 Use of BIM software for coordinating MEP projects.
3 Coordinate the location of various MEP services.
5 Integrate various components of MEP services.
Pre-requisites: Project Management Principles and Practices, Management of MEP Projects – I

Course Contents:
UNIT I: BIM fundamentals CO1,CO2 15
Fundamentals of BIM, BIM Mandates and Maturity Levels, LOD, BIM Dimensions,
CDE, COBie, Visualization - 3D Modelling for MEP project (Revit), Design and
Documentation, Project Review and Design Coordination (3D clash detection),
Introduction to 4D Simulation and Cost Estimation (5D), Work-sharing (BIM 360).
UNIT II: BIM for MEP coordination CO2,CO3,CO4,CO5 15
Preparing initial layouts using BIM for various MEP services such as HVAC,
electrical, firefighting and plumbing services, clash detection of MEP services and
layout finalization, system sizing, performance analysis, energy analysis, detailed
coordination of MEP services, documentation.

Learning outcomes include developing students’ knowledge with respect to theoretical aspects of
BIM enabled processes and tools along with their application in practice. Accordingly, pedagogy
for course delivery includes theoretical lectures supported by industry case studies and hands-on
experience on related BIM tools. Student assignments would include individual and group
submissions.

Course Objective:
The students will further work on the preliminary results to validate their findings and draw
inferences to arrive at a coherent conclusion, suggest recommendations and state the contributions
of the study.
1 Conduct validation of the preliminary results.
2 Draw connections to literature and theory.
3 Conclude results and state the contributions.
4 Report writing and presentation for final evaluation.
Pre-requisites: N/A
Course Contents:
UNIT I: Project Work CO1,CO2,CO3,CO4
Students will design and conduct experiment or methods to validate the preliminary
results of their research/project work. The final results are to be further theoretically
validated. Students will also state the theoretical and practical contributions of the
study. The final project work has to be submitted as a technical report. External
evaluation of the project work will be conducted as pert the guidelines of the project
work. Students may present papers in conferences / workshops and symposiums /
technical forums to gain confidence of the results and as a value addition to their
project / research work.
* Self-work Equivalent to 5 credits under the supervision of project faculty

The course involves final project work by students with guidance from the faculty. Independent
research will be conducted by the students and will be submitted in the form of a project report and
presented for external evaluation as per the guidelines of the project work.
