7 Ways It Pays To Use BIM For
Data Centers
• Planning The Space
• Keeping The Routing Free Of Conflicts
• Analyzing Air Flow
• Integrating Raised-floor Layouts
• Coordinating Prefabrication
• Managing Project Phasing
• Enabling Commissioning And O&M
Tasks

Planning The Space
• BIM helps data center designers confirm that the equipment and
distribution can all fit, verify maintenance and service
clearances.

Integrated Simulation Portfolio
• Structural Analysis
• Ecotect Analysis - online energy, water,
and carbon-emission analysis
• Shadow analysis
• Viewshed
• Wind modeling
• Disaster mitigation

Analyzing Air Flow
• By incorporating computational fluid
dynamic (CFD) simulations into the BIM
model, engineers can evaluate and fine
tune server layouts based on the
thermal modeling.

CFD Simulation for E&M Services

Integrating Raised-floor Layouts
• Creating a BIM model of the
flooring allows the installer to
understand where the MEP
systems are located in relationship
to the pedestal support systems.

Working Space Analysis for
Installation

Coordinating Prefabrication
• To help speed construction,
AEC firms are prefabricating
many of the building
systems and components,
from the enclosure to the
mechanical and electrical
systems. BIM/VDC is vital
for designing and testing
prefabrication concepts with
respect to material handling,
path of travel, and
installation sequence.

Design for Operations and
Maintenance
• Typical AEC projects not fully optimized for
maintenance and operations
• BIM supports design optimization for
operations and maintenance
– The Virtual Prototype serves as the basis for
operations and maintenance simulation during the
design phase

Changes
• By adopting the cloud computing with
mobile devices to enable real-time WIP
management for on site task / defect /
commissioning best practices that
significantly cut cost, improve
productivity, and improve the quality of
projects.
