BIM Modeling

Pinkard Construction is utilizing BIM modeling on The Bay Phase IV construction project. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a 3D model-based process that creates a digital representation of a facility, or in our case, The Bay's primary pool, surge tank, and piping. The model has helped ensure everything is constructed to the correct elevations and avoided conflicts amongst the extensive underground piping. The model provides the city with excellent documentation of what's where as the site gets backfilled and ultimately buried under the pool deck. It includes the underdrain, deck drain and all the pool process piping that carries water to/from the pool and mechanical room where the pool water is filtered, treated and heated.
