BIM modelling for every discipline
OnePoint BIM prepares Revit models for every engineering discipline at design and construction stages, from CAD or PDF drawings or existing models, at the level of development (LOD) the project requires.
What you receive
- Native Revit models for each discipline, at the agreed LOD.
- Drawings taken from the model: plans, sections and elevations.
- IFC files when the project requires them.
- A register of technical queries (RFIs) on gaps or conflicts in the drawings.
When it is used
BIM is required by the contract
The contract or the owner’s requirements set models at a given LOD on set dates.
Only 2D drawings are available
A design issued in CAD or PDF becomes a model that coordination and construction can rely on.
Design review before construction
The model shows gaps and conflicts in the drawings before they reach site.
Trade packages
Models of a trade package that join the project’s federated model.
Levels of development (LOD)
LOD 300
Right size and position.
LOD 350
Plus supports and links to other trades. Used for coordination.
LOD 400
Plus fabrication and installation detail. Used for shop drawings.
LOD 500
Checked against the building on site. Used for handover.
LOD 300 to 400: BIM modelling
LOD 500: As-built and laser scanning
The drawing shows the construction-stage levels; LOD 100 and LOD 200 are used in early design. If the required level is not set, send the project’s BIM requirements and we will suggest the right level.

Disciplines
Design-stage modelling
We work with consultants and design offices to build the Revit models as the design develops and to update them with each issue. Through the model we propose design optimisations, such as better service routes, space savings and avoidable clashes. The designer approves each one.

Common questions
Which software is used for modelling?
We model in Revit and coordinate in Navisworks. We deliver native Revit files, and IFC files when the project requires open formats.
Can you work to the project’s BIM standard?
Yes. We follow the BIM standard, the project template and the file naming set in the BIM Execution Plan (BEP).
