Then, BFU would draft the shop drawings and send them back to METHABAU for checking. This time-consuming and error-prone process is now a thing of the past.<\/p>\n<p>Today, data exchange is optimised via IFC. With the help of the IFC-Assistant and the MEP-Assistant in Allplan, BFU could quickly import the elements into Allplan Precast and generate high-quality production plans and shop drawings.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to numerous automated workflows in Allplan Precast, significant time savings in the design and detailing could also be achieved. By means of IFC, openBIM \u2013 essentially, software-independent data exchange \u2013 is integrated and made a reality.<\/p>\n<h3>Uniform standards for design, construction, and management<\/h3>\n<p>From the beginning of a construction project to its completion, all relevant data and models are collected and are available at any time for all the participants together with the current status. OpenBIM thereby enables uniform standards for design, construction, and management.<\/p>\n<p>Volker Koch, CEO of BFU, sums up the benefits of using BIM: \u201cThe R\u00fctihof Industrial Park project is a perfect example of the OPEN BIM idea. Allplan Precast software was very helpful for the project. By using the IFC-Assistant and MEP-Assistant, we did not have to draw the cut-outs or various fixtures manually. We then had a quick and good result for the production plans and shop drawings. This has saved BFU and also METHABAU a considerable amount of time in design and detailing.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_120779\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-120779\" style=\"width: 200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-120779\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Ru\u0308tihof_Gewerbebau_Methabau_008-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Ru\u0308tihof_Gewerbebau_Methabau_008-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Ru\u0308tihof_Gewerbebau_Methabau_008-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Ru\u0308tihof_Gewerbebau_Methabau_008-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Ru\u0308tihof_Gewerbebau_Methabau_008-696x1044.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Ru\u0308tihof_Gewerbebau_Methabau_008-1068x1602.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Ru\u0308tihof_Gewerbebau_Methabau_008-280x420.jpg 280w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Ru\u0308tihof_Gewerbebau_Methabau_008-1920x2880.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Ru\u0308tihof_Gewerbebau_Methabau_008.jpg 1333w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-120779\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 2: Precast elements offer climbing possibilities in all Olympic disciplines \u00a9 METHABAU<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Allplan supports openBIM<\/h3>\n<p>Furthermore, the common <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/featured\/allplan-2023-launches-the-latest-version-of-its-aec-bim-platform\/118829\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BIM model<\/a> considerably reduces the effort required to coordinate works. Thanks to standardised workflows and templates, all parties involved gain more clarity. Any collisions and modelling errors are reliably detected when the specialist models are merged. Allplan supports openBIM and offers flexible design in 2D and 3D at the highest level. The unique automated shop drawing technology provides both the clarity and vividness of the 3D model and the simplicity of the 2D plan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have used BIM 100% on the R\u00fctihof project. BIM is the digital twin and, as we say, the mother of all plans. When we generate a plan, it is already old by the next morning, whereas BIM is always up to date. What is important here is a structured way of working and model-based planning, and then you can put the individual models together,\u201d says Marco Andermatt, head of execution planning at METHABAU.<\/p>\n<h3>Automated workflows enable productivity gains<\/h3>\n<p>The efficiency gains provided by automated shop drawing technology are one of the many reasons why BFU has long been relying on Allplan Precast. This is why all the precast concrete elements for the R\u00fctihof commercial building were also designed and detailed with this software.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAllplan Precast is our fundamental tool for any design activity. Every designer always uses Allplan Precast daily, and the intuitive interface makes it an indispensable part of our design department. In Allplan Precast, I always find a way to design complex parts and get them into our automated production line,\u201d says Gabriel Keller, engineer at BFU.<\/p>\n<p>Within just nine months, BFU designed and produced an impressive 10,000m2 of slabs,<br \/>\n1,100m2 of solid walls and around 50 stair elements. Some 360 truckloads brought the precast elements to the construction site in W\u00e4denswil, Switzerland \u2013 all on schedule.<\/p>\n<p>Three different tenants now occupy the 14,000m2 of habitable space; there is an underground garage with 60 parking spaces for trucks, including a washroom with a column lift and a repair workshop.<\/p>\n<p>The beverage store has a multi-storey logistics hall for the beverage trade, with an automatic pallet conveyor system over three floors and 10 truck ramp spaces.<\/p>\n<p>One of the businesses, The Gaswerk AG climbing centre, is among the largest indoor climbing centers in Europe and has facilities for all Olympic disciplines.<\/p>\n<p>The 18m high climbing hall includes climbing routes with over 6,000 running metres, a bouldering room and a 1,700m2 outdoor climbing wall.<\/p>\n<p>As the example of the R\u00fctihof Industrial Park shows, construction projects are facing increasing complexity and collaborative requirements for design, planning and construction. Sophisticated BIM solutions offer relief via highly automated workflows for more productivity, precision and seamless collaboration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information, visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allplan.com\/precast\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.allplan.com\/precast<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>ALLPLAN GmbH<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.allplan.com\/precast\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.allplan.com\/precast<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/allplan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Twitter<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>*Please note: This is a commercial profile<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ru\u0308tihof Industrial Park project in Switzerland is a perfect example of implementing the openBIM concept.
