Residential Project
Saudi Arabia
BIM modeling, coordination, and LOD development for a large-scale residential apartment project, supporting construction and as-built documentation.
CHALLENGES
Incomplete IFC inputs at initial stage
Solution: Validated and developed LOD 300 models based on received IFC data
Impact: Established a reliable base model for coordination without design assumptions
Â
Interdisciplinary clashes during coordination
Solution: Performed clash detection using Navisworks and coordinated with project stakeholders
Impact: Reduced site conflicts and improved construction readiness
Â
Requirement for construction-ready and as-built models
Solution: Enhanced models to LOD 400 for construction and LOD 500 for as-built deliverables
Impact: Enabled accurate execution and provided reliable models for O&M use
TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS
Technologies: BIM (LOD 300 / 400 / 500)
Â
Tools & Platforms: Revit, AutoCAD, Navisworks, BIM 360
Â
Innovations / Optimizations: Efficient LOD progression aligned with project requirements
Â
Key Metrics: Coordinated multidisciplinary models delivered from LOD 300 to LOD 500
DELIVERABLES
- LOD 400 coordinated construction models
- LOD 500 as-built BIM models
- Clash detection & coordination reports
