With the ongoing advancement in the architectural design services, the Architectural and Engineering Construction (AEC) industry has witnessed a highly innovative growth period. All the credit goes to the creation of the 2D and 3D Computer Aided Design tools and the implementation of the highly engineered and proven concepts such as Building Information Modeling (BIM).
In the earlier days, the process was slow because there was a lack of consistent communication and exchange of ideas between the architects, engineers, designers and contractors. But now the whole scenario has changed and the architectural sector has got a boom with a faster delivery of the services and projects.
The architectural design services prevalent today are a perfect mix of the 2D, 3D, 4D and the 5D modeling concepts; which make it possible for the clients to get the best value for their money invested in the architectural designs. With the improved paper to CAD drawing conversion techniques, the architectural designs can now be exchanged in the digital modes with the clients.
Moreover, it has become quite easy to make the necessary changes and modifications in the digital designs and to deliver it in a faster way to the clients.
The 3D modeling techniques used in providing the architectural design services help the clients to get a photorealistic visualization of the whole architectural project. The designs that are developed in the three dimensional domains act as the masterpiece for understanding the whole outcome of the project in the initial stages itself.
An improved coordination is exhibited not only in the dimensional fronts but also among the other related design areas such as the mechanical, electrical and the plumbing designs.
The architectural design services not only cater to the design development phases of the project life cycle but also provide a well managed project sequence for undertaking the entire responsibility of developing a sustainable structure. This particular area is being covered by the 4D modeling tools of the architectural design and development software.
The 4D aspect takes into account the practical construction parameters following the design phase such as the site analysis, project planning and implementation etc. The last important aspect associated with the architectural design services is the 5D modeling, which deals with the material and cost estimates of a particular project.
