| Objectives | The aim of this innovation project is to develop and trial an intelligent 3D modelling process based on Building Information Modelling (BIM) level 2 maturity, within an existing construction project. Expected Benefits: Attain knowledge of the BIM model in a working environment to understand if the intelligent 3D modelling process is fit for purpose within future National Grid construction projects. |

| Abstract | The current design process requires additional time and resources to develop specifications, process flow diagrams, and engineering line diagrams through to general arrangements. The process generates a number of Technical Queries (TQs) and Requests for Information (RFIs), requiring additional time and resource. It can take up to three further months for a design to go through the assurance process; including the conceptual design phase, developing the preliminary process and mechanical designs. | |
