Electrical BIM for Data Centers
Data center projects contain dense electrical infrastructure and require close coordination between power systems, equipment, cable containment, mechanical services, structural elements, and architectural spaces.
Electrical BIM for Data Centers helps project teams visualize and coordinate these systems before installation, supporting constructability reviews, clash resolution, drawing production, and installation planning.
Project Inputs
Switchgear, transformers, generators, UPS systems, ATS, busway, power distribution equipment, cable trays, conduits, feeders, lighting systems, sleeves, and penetrations
Coordination Focus
Equipment clearances, maintenance access, routing congestion, electrical-room layouts, penetration locations, and installation constraints
Data Center Electrical BIM Deliverables
