Success Story
BIMEXPERTS carries out high-quality design of MEP building systems using BIM methodology. The company provides BIM modeling and engineering services, BIM consulting and management, and BIM training.
Continuous work and rich experience in the construction industry enable them to develop and improve in-house software solutions for efficient and accurate work as well as sustainable design.
"Some of the challenges we face in design are the complexity of the projects. Large facilities such as hospitals, laboratories and large residential buildings often require extremely complex MEP systems. Integrating different systems and adapting to technical standards is a challenge in planning," says Marko Rogan, electrical engineer and head of the electrical engineering department.
Consistency and rapid adaptation to changes are essential. Creating project documentation quickly and efficiently and minimizing errors and rework are becoming increasingly important factors in competition on the market.
"Autodesk REVIT, an integrated Building Information Modelling (BIM) platform, enables engineers to collaborate on modelling complex systems. This enables real-time coordination between different disciplines and reduces the risk of conflict."
The project is a residential tower with 27 floors and a gross floor area of 80,000 m² in Frankfurt. As a synonym for sophisticated urban living, the new building has a total volume of almost 33 million euros, with more than 10 million euros earmarked for the technical planning of the building.
The building itself combines striking architecture with clarity and lush greenery as well as vertical green spaces that merge with glass façades.
"The aim of the project was to plan the LPH5 phase of the implementation of the mechanical and electrical systems, more specifically the heating, cooling, ventilation, plumbing and electrical installations of high and low voltage current. The basic input data for the planning were standards, technical documentation, and plans," says Marko Rogan.
The challenges they faced were understanding the specific requirements of the client and the project through relevant rules and regulations, proper planning of the LPH5 phase and time management, as well as defining the clear roles of all project participants and proper communication between the different teams.
"The total duration of the project was a little less than 3 years. We decided to use Autodesk Revit software to create 3D models. The model was created according to BIMEXPERTS' corporate standards, which gave us the opportunity to use our standardized Revit families."
Using Autodesk Revit software, a complete MEP model was created from the internally created 2D/3D concepts of the technical installations, ready for delivery after coordination with Autodesk Navisworks software, including schematics and calculations.
By implementing Autodesk software, the staff realized important benefits such as efficient modeling in the Autodesk REVIT software.
These solutions made day-to-day work considerably easier, as they enabled more effective teamwork, faster identification of conflicts and the implementation of innovative approaches in work processes.
"For us, this project was a completely new experience in the planning of multi-story buildings, collaboration between internal teams was improved and the overall picture in the planning of similar buildings was enhanced."
"Through the project, we made important contacts and opened up new opportunities for working on similar projects that we had later."
The implementation of the Autodesk program improves the efficiency, accuracy and coordination of the BIMEXPERTS team's work, enabling faster decision making, cost reduction and a greater competitive advantage in the MEP engineering market.

Pinehill Residential House
If you work in the architectural visualization field, you will usually encounter two challenges from a client: short timeframes and lust for quality. Renderus Visuals' friends and clients from MAK Studio had little time on their side to design a family residence, and they worked together almost simultaneously on the project. It was hard to produce attractive images in real-time, but this was the major challenge for this project. The house was nestled in the hills near the San Francisco area and surrounded by pine forest. The client was sending AutoCAD drawings and hand-drawn sketches daily. Renderus Visual had to combine those references to make good draft renderings. In the end, as they agreed on the design, Renderus swiftly produced the final production renderings, thanks to the power of the Autodesk 3ds Max platform. Overall, the project was a real challenge, technically and artistically, since they had to make changes daily and put everything together in a short time.
Tata Safari—More than the Vehicle You See on Screen
Primer Studio was tasked with creating video material for the well-known Tata car brand. The key was to capture all the car's features and present it in the best possible light. However, the vehicle present on set was not the one that should be displayed in the final material. Sounds confusing, right? Well, that’s the mission Primer Studio was assigned. In their case, they had to use 3D magic to transform the tracking car into a future car. The filmed car and 3D car model, although different in shape and color, had the same wheelbase. A fun behind-the-scenes fact is that Tata Motors was doing the final touches on the car as they were working on the model. Luckily, they never shy away from a challenge which shows their flexibility and openness to adapt the initial plan if necessary - and it often is.
Solving the Production Challenges - Vault Technical Documentation Management
Tigar Tyres is part of the Michelin business system and one of the biggest producers of quality tires. As part of the Michelin corporation, their development sector is responsible for the design and development of new tire types. The company is specialized in the production and sales of car tires, truck tires, tires for agriculture, and special industrial and construction tires. For years, they were using Autodesk Inventor as their main piece of design software. Besides, part of the engineering process was done also in AutoCAD. Challenge was similar to the challenges that our other clients had when speaking about the design in teams; there was a need for centralized data management of the workflow, technical documentation, detailed revision and version monitoring, product lifecycles, access rights, and more. Additionally, there was a need to exchange data with the other factories within the Michelin system.
