Implementación BIM en el proyecto de la Subestación Nro. 77 y Bodega de Almacenamiento – Tabacundo: Rol Líder MEP

Abstract

The application of the BIM methodology is proposed for a civil engineering project, with the objective of demonstrating the benefits this methodology provides for project planning, management, and control. The project involves the construction of a Compact Substation and a 1,800 m² storage warehouse, located in Tabacundo, Pedro Moncayo canton, aimed at improving the reliability of the electrical sub-transmission system. The adopted configuration integrates a warehouse for the storage and maintenance of electrical equipment, optimizing operational management and the capacity to respond to contingencies in the distribution network. The substation will be constructed with a mixed structure (metal and concrete), while the warehouse will have a metal structure; both facilities will include electrical and plumbing systems, and the area has the necessary infrastructure to ensure the provision of basic services required. The implementation of the BIM methodology will enhance efficiency in project development, facilitating the early detection and resolution of conflicts during the various phases of the project. Furthermore, the generated models will provide reliable information for measurements and quantities, contributing to the optimization of time and costs during construction.
