Jiaomei Extension of Xiamen Metro Line 6, China

Project Location: Jiaomei in Zhangzhou,China

Areas Utilizing BIM: Metro and Associated Structures 

Magnitude of the Project:
Total Station Length: 379 m (approx. 1,243 ft)
Platform Width: 12 m (approx. 39.4 ft)
Station Width: 20.7 m (approx. 67.9 ft)
Total Gross Floor Area: 18,676.57 m² (approx. 201032.93 ft²)

Applications of BIM: Bimodeling reviewed the construction drawings to identify and resolve omissions, thereby improving overall drawing quality. A custom Dynamo script was used to verify beam and clear height data, while Revit’s color-coded views were leveraged to generate clear height analysis diagrams. After cross-disciplinary coordination and review, the Bimodeling team conducted 3D MEP integration in Revit and produced 2D composite pipeline layouts, hanger/support diagrams, embedded component plans, and discipline-specific breakdown drawings. For complex nodes, 3D animations and visual presentations were created to support visualized coordination, assisting the interior design team in advancing detailed design.

Using 3D Visualization to Guide On-Site Construction

The 3D model provides an accurate and intuitive representation of the shape, dimensions, and connection details of prefabricated components, minimizing design errors and offering reliable data support for construction, manufacturing, and on-site installation.
