take these sensitivities into account can result in poor tool performancetake these sensitivities into account can result in poor tool performance.

BIM allows us to smartly design areas that can exchange tool data with rest of the model. This allows us to see interference sources and ensure sensitive equipment is located accordingly.


Example of Correctly Placed Tools in Relation to EMI Zones

Space Management: 3 Key Uses of BIM in Cleanroom Environmentsy2. Accurate MEP Design Space management is critical due to the density of piping, HVAC, and electrical

services. BIM has made it much easier to design MEP systems with 3D models that

accurately represent the size and precise location of each pipe, duct, or fitting and ll i i f th t f lallow viewing of these systems from any angle.

Using clash detections to identify and resolve conflicts before installation will result in fewer RFIs, while saving time and materials.

Discipline Coordination: BIM Enables Multi-Discipline Communication Successful cleanroom design requires accurate coordination across multiple

disciplines, including the cleanroom designer, building architect, building MEP, and structural engineerstructural engineer.

The use of BIM brings all of these disciplines together, creates a clear picture of the design, and provides users online collaboration tools that allow for the speedy review of designs by all team members. This is critical due to the density of piping, g y y p p g,HVAC, and electrical services in these spaces. Successful installation and operation of expensive cleanroom equipment depends on the availability of these services.

How?1. Online collaboration and model sharing. This is done using electronic

workspaces such as FTP sites or onsite servers.2. Effective coordination requires the MEP team to share BIM models and be

aware each others services. This information must be up to date and available to all team members. It is important to communicate changes and to review the updated model on a weekly or bi-weekly schedule

Building Integration Constraints:Fire Codes, Constructability, Vendor Requirements

Careful attention must be paid to the integration of building and fire codes, constructability, and vendor requirements. These requirements impact not only clean space but the entire building Parameters constraints and templates in theclean space, but the entire building. Parameters, constraints, and templates in the model can be used to avoid costly mistakes and RFIs.

Code compliance is vital part of design and a large amount of time is spent reviewing plans for compliance. Smart devices can report information such as g p p pmounting height to make code checking faster and more accurate.

How?1. Code data can be stored within the BIM model. If the code requires changes, the1. Code data can be stored within the BIM model. If the code requires changes, the

model can help visualize the impact of these changes.2. Constructability issues can be caught early and a solution can be identified prior

to construction resulting in fewer RFIs. Plenums and cleanroom walls are custom designs. Using BIM we can anticipate how these items will need to interface with other elements of the building prior to construction.

3. BIM allows for equipment to be designed using parameters that will display d d l i t d id t d bl U i

vendor and clearance requirements and avoid wasted or unusable space. Using 3D tool clearances will make it clear if adequate space has been provided.



Fire Codes Using 3D elements with smart parameters

to add code requirements such as mounting height, coverage radius, and clearances ensure that the code is met as well as reporting the quantity, location,well as reporting the quantity, location, and height of these devices.

In order to accommodate the fire code in a recent project, AGI was required to p j , qdesign a vertical lift to allow for chemicals and gases to pass from the HPM rooms to the cleanroom. Using 3D geometry allowed us to design the interface to haveallowed us to design the interface to have proper access.



Constructability Often the interstitial level of a cleanroom is not located at the same height as the

hit t ld lik t l t th t l l f th b ildi I th i t th d iarchitect would like to locate the next level of the building. In these instances the design may need to include stairs or ramps to provide access.

In building renovation projects, the interface between the existing building and the new space is vital. The use of BIM to locate existing structure, architecture and MEP servicesspace is vital. The use of BIM to locate existing structure, architecture and MEP services can save considerable time. One of AGI”S designs required two plenums to be hollowed out to accommodate the tool height while still supporting the AHU above.

Vendor Requirements Vendor requirements for sensitive tools will determine the acceptable location for

Vendor Requirements Modeling tool clearances in 3D allow you

Smart tools have awareness of the services they require, the points of connection for services, and their location within the model This helpslocation within the model. This helps ensure vendor requirements are met as well as adequate services have been provided.


Conclusion

When designing a clean space, there is a vast amount of data that must be gathered to ensure that the room meets US Federal and ISO standards, meets building code requirements, and functions exactly as it is designed.

Using BIM in this process is an essential way to gather all of this information into one central location and communicate design requirements and issues across multiple disciplines.
