Uso do Building Information Modeling (BIM) no desenvolvimento do projeto hidrossanitário de uma unidade residencial unifamiliar

Abstract

Nowadays, Building Information Modeling isn’t commonly used for plumbing design at Brazil. This fact probably occurs due to the lack of specialization of the workers, the high value associated by the technology usage and the engineer resistance to adopting this methodology. However, because of Decree number 10.306, offices are getting updated to this new system and investing in innovation. With the reformulation and upgrade from the methods that are being using at Civil Engineer market, like new programs, for example, it will be possible to understand the need and the urge of renovation, making possible that the constructions in the future have better executions, reducing capital outlay and compatibilization problems. This last one can be analyzed by clash detection and by the interoperability between others systems design (such as electrical, structural, and others). The goal from this work consists in the use of BIM 3D for a plumbing design, in order to amplify this methodology utilization at the university and encourage new studies. For this, for the drawings and clash detection was used Autodesk Revit 2021 and for the hydraulic system dimensioning, Microsoft Excel.
