2 What What has been! What is! And what will---be the role of software in the HVAC industry? FOR Consultants Contractors Manufacturer s Representatives Building Owners

3

4 Building Loads Hand Calculate TI 59 Calculator Spreadsheets Carrier CHVAC ELITE Trane

5 Manufacturers Equipment Selection Pump Manufacturers Heat Exchanger Expansion Tanks Selections of COILS Fan Manufacturers Major Manufacturers: Trane, York, Carrier, and McQuay WOW

6 Energy Analysis DOE2 / equest Blast Energy Pro Visual DOE Green Building Studio! Carrier HAP Trane

7 What is BIM?

8 BIM Terminology from ASHRAE BIM

9 BIM Terminology from ASHRAE BIM 3-D BIM

10 BIM Terminology from ASHRAE BIM 3-D BIM 4-D BIM

11 BIM Terminology from ASHRAE BIM 3-D BIM 4-D BIM 5-D BIM

12 BIM Definition from ASHRAE BIM: Human activity of using BIM software and technologies to model the building.

13 BIM Definition from ASHRAE 3D BIM: A model that includes 3-D shapes.

14 BIM Definition from ASHRAE 4D BIM: A 3D BIM that has cost information.

15 BIM Definition from ASHRAE 5D BIM: A 4D BIM that has a schedule and time constraints.

16 WHY is BIM so important to us NOW and in the FUTURE?

17 It s All About POWER The rate at which work is performed. Loads Energy Analysis

18 It s All About POWER To our projects and clients in making better decisions and choices, and about getting projects built RIGHT and in less time!

19 What is the Power of Building Information Modeling (BIM)?

20 ASHRAE Definition Building Information Modeling: The ability to allow the whole building or system to be optimized in lieu of optimizing individual components.

21 What Software Models the Whole Building and all of it s Systems?

22 Not any that I know of!

23 IPD Integrated Project Delivery Using powerful programs to optimize our buildings and systems! Procedure Cost and Schedule

24 Powerful Programs/Platforms Autodesk and Bentley Products Revit, Micro-station gbxml Loads Software Energy Analysis HVAC Solution Manufacturer s Programs

25 General Office Accounting QuickBooks, Sage, Timberline Project Management Microsoft Project, Newforma, Primavera, Excel Cost Estimation RS Means, QuickPen, Quotesoft Marketing PowerPoint, InDesign, Photoshop, ACT! Specification MasterSpec, e-specs, SpecLink General, Word,???

26 WHAT is the 1,000 Pound Gorilla?

27 Autodesk Revit Gorilla s Appetite Training Costs Software Costs Computer Costs Two Big Monitors Slow and Hard to work with! 9,10, 11

28 Our Clients are Typically Architects! Traditional Design, Bid and Build Mechanical Engineer is Prime Design Build We Work for Contractors Design Build Contractors Work for Us????

29 Deliverable Phases Schematic Design Design Development Construction Documents Construction Administration As-Built Drawings

30 Be a Flexible Team Player Understand the Client and Project Who are we working for? Deliverable phases How can we be cost effective to meet the budget and schedule using powerful programs and IPD?

31 3 Methods of Integrated Project Delivery

32 Integrated Project Delivery Method #1 Autodesk Revit Run Loads Inside of Revit Size and Optimize System? Duct sizing in Revit Other systems as you currently do! Hand calculations, Excel?

33 Integrated Project Delivery Method #1 Final Deliverables, BIM and 3D BIM Detailed Calculations Ductwork and Piping Layout 3D Revit, Rfa Files Equipment Schedules Schematics, Air Flow, Hydronic, and Steam Details of Equipment Bills of Materials/Cost Estimation Specifications

34 Integrated Project Delivery Method #2 Autodesk Revit Export gbxml file from Revit Import gbxml file, run loads Carrier Elite CHVAC TRANE Size and optimize system? Duct sizing in Revit Other systems as you currently do Hand calculations, Excel?

35 Integrated Project Delivery Method #2 Final Deliverables, BIM and 3D BIM Detailed Calculations Ductwork and Piping Layout 3D Revit, Rfa Files Equipment Schedules Schematics, Air Flow, Hydronic, and Steam Details of Equipment Bills of Materials/Cost Estimation Specifications

36 Integrated Project Delivery Method #3 Autodesk Revit Export gbxml file from Revit Import gbxml file, run loads Carrier Elite CHVAC Trane Import gbxml file into HVAC Solution, then size and optimize systems

37 Integrated Project Delivery Method #3 HVAC Solution Output Equipment Schedules Equipment Selection Detailed Calculations Air Flow, Hydronic and Steam Schematics Details of Equipment Bills of Materials/Cost Estimation Electrical Coordination Schedule Control Points Revit Files, RFA

38 Integrated Project Delivery Method #3 Final Deliverables, BIM and 3D BIM Detailed Calculations Ductwork and Piping Layout 3D Revit Revit RFA File Equipment Schedules Schematics, Air Flow, Hydronic and Steam Details of Equipment Bill of Materials/Cost Estimation Specifications

39 Back to the BIM Terminology from ASHRAE BIM Optimize the System 3-D BIM 3-D Model Something to think about! 4-D BIM Cost 5-D BIM Time/Schedule

40 What BIM or 3D BIM Deliverables Will You Share With Others? Share with the Contractor? YOU Share with Other Consultants? Share with the Facilities People? Share with the Owner? Share with the Reps?

41 Two Simple Examples Floor plan from Architect 30 years ago How many of us currently run or review loads?

42 Shifting of Work! Optimize the Mechanical Systems Controls Energy Analysis LEED Construction Administration Building Commissioning What are we going to share? 4D, 5D

43 As Consultants Representatives Contractors Building Owners We have to stay on top of our game!
