INNOVATION AT THE SERVICE OF QUALITY AND AGILITY

– TOGETHER WITH THE BIM SYSTEM, EFFICIENCY IS GUARANTEED  –

RAC IS ALWAYS INNOVATING

Among the innovative measures adopted by RAC Engineering the past few years, is the implementation of the BIM system in our processes of project modeling, as well as planning, budgeting and execution of works. We know that, in practice, most of the works mobilize an extensive variety of materials, services, and other provisions in order for the execution to take place the most efficiently as possible. Equalizing processes that involve a deadline, cost and quality is one of the differentials of the implementation of BIM. At the moment, RAC is executing many works within this work platform, bringing forth expressive results in the gain of quality and productivity.
BIM SYSTEM

RAC INNOVATES TO GO BEYOND BIM

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a new concept created to bring much more efficiency to construction projects. Different from the usual 2D design, BIM technology modeling works with 3D resources, making it possible to virtually construct a model which is true to the final product. The ideal project carried out in BIM aggregates all parts involved in the planning of a construction, providing in-depth information about every detail of construction to be used by all those involved, from engineers and architects to the planners and those responsible for the purchase of materials.

Assisted by BIM, several professionals are able to work on the same project at the same time, integrated by the same platform, inputting data aligned with their own specialty and keeping record of updates in real-time. It is not only about making access to data easy, such as dimensions of walls or placement of hydraulic or gas pipes, but also to provide information related to the types and quantities of inputs and labor employed, since virtual construction is done according to the parameters and characteristics of the materials that will be used in the site.

SCHEDULING AND PLANNING ASSOCIATED TO THE 3D MODEL

Using the time variable in favor of project progress

  • Scheduling of the activities with tasks associated to the elements

  • Planning and monitoring of the project

  • Monitoring of the projected services x the performed ones

  • Visualization of the services on specific dates

  • With simulation of construction it is possible to visually identify errors in planning and executive sequence, which may go unnoticed in spreadsheets and graphs

  • Simulation of several constructive solutions for decision-making

BUDGETING AND COST CONTROL ASSOCIATED TO THE MODEL

Reliability to ensure the expected cost

Virtualization of cost-linked construction

6D

FACILITIES MANAGEMENT

Usage of model to manage the building after construction:
Compatibility of installations of the ceiling in the site of the Federal Revenue Service Station in Bauru/SP.
  • Warranty management of equipment

  • Maintenance planning

  • Information from suppliers of resources and equipment used in the site

  • Renovations

  • Management and monitoring of the enterprise’s lifecycle, alongside their costs in the operations phase
