BIM for Fire Alarm Design

Fire alarm design is often overlooked in BIM discussions but presents a major opportunity for improved efficiency and collaboration. By integrating the 3D model, riser diagram, calculations, and operations matrix into a workflow, designers can ensure every change updates automatically across the system.

AI in MEP Engineering and Design

AI is entering the MEP industry, creating a mix of curiosity and concern among design engineers. The question on many minds is, will AI take engineering jobs? To understand this, we explore where AI excels, where it falls short, and its potential to reshape engineering work.
