MEP & Structural BIM Services for educational Project in California
Delivering a coordinated and constructible model for this educational facility in California required precise integration of structural and MEP systems within a compact, low-rise building footprint. Spanning approximately 45,000 sq. ft., the project involved detailed BIM modeling and clash coordination using Autodesk Revit and Navisworks, with a strong focus on aligning rooftop mechanical equipment, service routing, and structural framing. Through a structured coordination workflow, we resolved interdependencies early, improved system-level clarity, and ensured a build-ready model that supports efficient on-site execution.

Challenges & Solutions
Key problems we identified and how we solved them effectively.
Challenge
- Dense rooftop mechanical equipment placement conflicting with structural framing layout
- Integration of multiple MEP services within limited ceiling and service areas
- Coordination between structural elements and vertical service penetrations
- Maintaining alignment between design intent and real-world installation constraints
- Requirement for accurate, build-ready models for site execution
Solution
- Coordinated structural and MEP models to align equipment locations with structural support zones
- Optimized routing and spacing of ducts, pipes, and conduits to maintain clearances and accessibility
- Defined precise sleeve locations and openings to avoid on-site conflicts during installation
- Validated constructability through coordinated BIM models with focus on access and maintenance zones
- Delivered fully coordinated structural and MEP BIM models with clash-free outputs and clear coordination data
