Blueprints are a thing of the past.
Today’s Design-Build environment demands more, and high-powered digital modeling has come to the forefront of architecture. Eaton's BIM-friendly models make it easy to predict exactly how electrical equipment will fit into new structures.
The coordination of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems in buildings is an activity that involves locating equipment and the routing of connecting elements for each system to avoid physical interferences. Eaton offers 3D models for many of it's products to support a variety of MEP software. Furthermore, Eaton is actively involved with BIM-related activities such as the buildingSMART alliance's Specifier's Properties Information Exchange project to extend its BIM capabilities to support your needs.
Eaton Corporation is proud to offer Building Information Modeling (BIM) friendly models for a wide range of electrical distribution products. Architects, design-build contractor and surveyors, consulting engineers, and others are able to integrate Eaton equipment into their drawings with ease, and without cost.
A Building Information Model (BIM) is a three-dimensional digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility. It serves as a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility, and forms a reliable basis for decisions throughout its life-cycle. BIM-friendly models from Eaton bring seamless integration to your building plan.
BIM touches every aspect of building construction, and can be utilized by a nearly exhaustive list of benefactors:
Owners ● Planners ● Realtors ● Appraisers ● Mortgage Bankers ● Designers ● Engineers ● Cost & Quantity Estimators ● Contracts & Lawyers ● Construction Contractors ● Sub-Contractors ● Fabricators ● Code Officials ● Facility Managers ● Maintenance & Sustainment ● Renovation & Restoration ● Disposal & Recycling ● Scoping, Testing, Simulation ● Safety & Occupational Health ● Environmental & NEPA ● Plant Operations ● Energy, LEED ● Space & Security ● Network Managers ● CIO’s ● Risk Management ● Occupant Support ● First Responders
