Check out this community-driven urban farming concept that opts for a synergetic system in a quest for fresh, organic and uncontaminated produce.

BIM offers coordination tools that let architects, structural and MEP engineers deal with a venture all the more viably. For instance, by working with the same model as a base, MEP specialists can format their frameworks around the structural model, enhancing coordination. A standout amongst the most valuable instruments accessible is clash detection, which is an incredible approach to diminish blunders via naturally checkingcollisions or interferences between the structural system and the ducts and plumbing systems.

Integrating BIM with building automation systems is a new concept on the block. Facility mangers are exploring its benefits and utilizing it to improve the efficiency within buildings like healthcare facilities, pharmaceuticals and the like. Facility managers can use BIM in conjunction with computer aided maintenance management system to chart out an improved maintenance plan and to build an operations and maintenance tracking tool.

ZHA's #KnitCandela, an experimental structure, illustrates the use of a ground-breaking, ultra-lightweight and knitted formwork system to erect a thin, concrete, doubly curved shell - a system that will potentially change construction methodologies using freeform concrete.

Get ready to be captivated by Orproject's latest interiors - a wave-like partition system for Amit Aggarwal flagship store in Delhi, where glistening forms toy with elegance, mystery, and distortion.

More industrialized approach becomes mandatory, an approach that will reduce cost and simplify the decision making process for buyers. But as we all would agree, each city skyline is unique in itself, every building comes in with its own kind of combination of uses, systems and opportunities to be energy efficient.

Reduce energy consumption by optimizing HVAC layout & using smart products in HVAC systems wherever possible.

Revit MEP Modeling, since inception, has been delivering an array of options to design ductwork models, however; there are several challenges that sheet metal fabricators face when modelling ductwork in Revit. Ductwork, unique in design for each of the structures and elements expose several challenges while designing.

Revit MEP by Autodesk is an established tool for ductwork modeling that addresses the core elements of a ductwork system, allowing a reasonably sound set of design drawings to be issued. Challenges for fabrication from Revit was a big area of concern, till the time Autodesk started addressing them; and now we see successful fabrication interoperability.
