LOD 400 ACS & MEPF Modeling with Shop Drawings & Clash Detection & Coordination
LOD 400 mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection modeling with inter-discipline clash detection, shop drawings, and fabrication drawings for a defence institute.
Overview
Project Overview
This defence institute project required LOD 400 MEPF models across mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection systems with inter-discipline clash detection and coordination. Our team delivered coordinated models along with shop and fabrication drawings.
The deliverables supported installation planning and fabrication with accurate, coordinated drawing sets derived from the LOD 400 BIM models.

Client Challenges
Pain Points of the Client
Defence institute facilities require precise MEPF coordination and fabrication-ready documentation.
01
LOD 400 MEPF Detail Requirements
Institutional MEPF systems require detailed LOD 400 models for installation and fabrication.
02
Inter-Discipline Coordination
Mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection systems must coordinate without conflicts.
03
Shop and Fabrication Drawing Accuracy
Installation and fabrication depend on drawing sets that precisely reflect the coordinated model.
04
Institutional System Complexity
Defence facilities involve specialized MEPF systems with stringent coordination requirements.
Our Approach
How We Solved It
LOD 400 MEPF modeling with clash detection, coordination, and shop/fabrication drawing production.
Inter-Discipline Clash Detection
Ran federated clash tests across all MEPF disciplines using Navisworks.
Shop Drawing Production
Extracted shop drawings from coordinated models for installation planning.
Fabrication Drawing Delivery
Produced fabrication-ready drawing sets aligned with the coordinated BIM model.
Execution Strategy
A Structured MEPF Workflow - Phase by Phase
Delivery progressed from design intake through MEPF modeling, clash detection, and drawing production.
