3 MODELS
3.1 Model workflow
One of the principle aims of BIM-MEPAUS is to enable efficient BIM workflows that see the design model
progressively refined through the design, virtual build and construction process to ultimately deliver a completed
Commissioned As-Built Model.
A key step in this process is the virtual build during which the change-out of the generic design components with
Manufacturer’s Certified Models (MCMs) occurs. These MCMs are able to support a range of construction and
commissioning workflows as well as the asset’s life cycle management post-handover.
The completed construction model generated through the virtual build is then used to drive a range of activities
including site layout, procurement and installation scheduling and tracking.
Once the installation is completed and the systems commissioned, as-built data and project completion information
are used to finalise the Commissioned-As Built Model for handover to the client.
3.2 Generic design content
BIM-MEPAUS generic design families provide a catalogue of sizes (types) that allow designers to spatially model to
LOD 300 as well as specify the fan’s performance and quality requirements.
The generic design model shared parameters have been developed through industry consultation and are
considered those necessary to schedule the quality and performance requirements for tendering and procurement
purposes.
Design firms with content libraries can pre-populate these fan design families with their specific quality specifications
in order to minimise repetitive data entry on each use in a project. This approach limits subsequent scheduling to
only those instance based performance parameters that are typically scheduled in specification equipment
schedules.
The generic design fan catalogue of sizes provides a representative range of typical selections based on the
ISO6580 series R20 flange sizes as follows:
315
400
500
630
710
800
1000
1250
1400
1600
1800
2000
R20 sizes in the series, not included in the family are:
450 560 900 1120
3.3 Manufacturer certified content
The virtual build develops the design model into the LOD 400 construction model and typically involves changing
out the design content with manufacturer certified content. Where the manufacturer’s model is BIM-MEPAUS
compliant this should be readily achieved.
Manufacturer’s models are preferably generated from the BIM-MEPAUS Industry Foundation Models (IFM) and
are a single type family that has the fan geometry needed for the virtual build plus the manufacturer data for the
specific fan to be supplied to the project.
BIM-MEPAUS Specification
Axial fans
BIM-MEPAUS Page 4 September 2016
BIM-MEPAUS certified manufacturer models are fully interchangeable with the generic design models and provide:
Accurate geometry
Performance data
Full BIM-MEPAUS Revit operability.
Where the data is not able to be provided by the manufacturer in Revit shared parameter format, manufacturer data
should be delivered in Excel format using the BIM-MEPAUS Product Data Templates to allow the data to be efficiently
imported by the specialist trade contractor into their scheduling database or Revit virtual build model.
Microsoft Excel based product data templates are provided for this purpose on the BIM-MEPAUS website under the
specification product templates section. Where required additional fields can be drawn from the shared parameter
schedules in this specification to provide additional product data as required.
As the MCM and supporting shared parameter schedule replaces the certified drawings and technical schedules
that have traditionally been provided by manufacturers, the model accuracy should be no less than that provided
by a manufacturer’s certified drawing.
Manufacturer’s certified models should preferably include a link to a pdf or web page providing pre-commissioning
checklists for modellers and shop drawers to facilitate the proper incorporation of the component into the model as
well as providing the pre-commissioning check sheet for the project site team.

4 SHARED PARAMETER SCHEDULING
The shared parameter schema has been developed to effectively support data requirements for design,
procurement and commissioning as well as life cycle asset management.
All BIM-MEPAUS plant and equipment models have the same schedule structure shown below.
Identity
BIM Classification
System Analysis
Green Building Properties
Performance / Quality
Manufacturer
Commissioning
Completion
System Analysis, Green Building Properties and Commissioning schedules are only included where applicable or
where they have been defined by a relevant standard.
The schedules are progressively completed as the MEP services model progresses through design and virtual
construction to a fully completed Commissioned As-built component within the final model.
Schedule Section Generic Design / MCM
Model schedule
Schedule completion by
Identity Generic design model Designer / Manufacturer / Installer
BIM Classification Generic design model Designer
System Analysis Generic design model Designer
Green Building Properties Generic design model / MCM model Designer / Installer / Manufacturer
Performance /Quality Generic design model / MCM model Designer / Installer
Manufacturer MCM model Manufacturer
Commissioning MCM model Installer
Completion Schedule MCM model Installer
The identity and completion schedules must be completed for all components and once the values are defined are
fixed for the life of the component.
It is expected that not all data will be carried in the Revit design or virtual construction model with non-core data
likely to be managed off model using scheduling databases and/or spreadsheets. This non-core data is commonly
required for the finalization of procurement, commissioning and facility management purposes.
Manufacturer BIM data must be supplied in a format that can be imported into a data management system and/or
Revit based Virtual Construction model with suitable formats including:
MCM model incorporating BIM-MEPAUS Product Data Template shared parameters
MCM geometry model with supporting BIM-MEPAUS Product Data Template Excel file.
To allow efficient and reliable data exchanges, it is critical that the BIM-MEPAUS shared parameter names and
respective GUIDs be used.
Parameters indicated in bold font are core Revit model data expected to reside in the model whilst those in italics
are non-core data that can be managed either in the Revit MEP model or off model in a scheduling database.
BIM-MEPAUS Specification

BIM-MEPAUS Page 6 September 2016
Parameters notated with the symbol have an industry defined set of allowable values or descriptions that are
listed in the master BIM-MEPAUS shared parameter schedule.
It is noted that BIM-MEPAUS compliant manufacturer’s certified models can be used for the basis of design where deemed appropriate by the designer and/or where specific manufacturer plant and equipment is to be nominated.

5 FAN SPECIFICATION
The following guidance has been developed through the industry consultation process as particular areas requiring
focus during the completion of the fan quality/performance schedules.
5.1 Fan duty selection
Fan duty should make appropriate allowances for system leakage and/or system diversity to avoid issues with motor
sizing, fan efficiency and system commissioning. The duct leakage calculations should be based on ASHRAE or
SMACNA ductwork surface area based methods.
5.2 Fan installation arrangements
Fan Installation arrangements are important in the fan selection process with manufacturer fan selection data based
on Type D arrangements.
5.3 Smoke spill applications
Design maximum temperature for smoke spill applications. AS 1668 1998 Part 1 requires
Each smoke-spill fan, complete with its drive, flexible connections (where required), control gear and wiring
shall be constructed and installed so that it is capable of continuous operation at its rated capacity as follows:
(a) In sprinklered buildings the fan shall operate for a period of not less than 2 h with a smoke-spill air
temperature of 200°C.
(b) In unsprinklered buildings, the fan shall operate for a period of not less than 30 min with a smoke-spill air
temperature of 300°C.
5.4 Fan motor selection
Motor IP ratings: Typically IP55 is considered adequate for most applications – higher IP ratings may be warranted
for specialized applications.
Thermistor protection is normally provided for all motors 75kW and over as standard, however for motors under this
size thermistor protection must be specified if required to be fitted.
Motors are generally based on 400V 3 Phase 50Hz 4 pole motor selections due to their lower noise and vibration
levels with the following standard range of motors sizes available:
0.37 2.2 11 37
0.55 4.0 15 45
0.75 5.5 18.5 55
1.1 7.5 22 75
1.5 9.5 30 90
Alternative single phase motors are also typically available up to 1.5kW.
Motor speeds are determined by the number of poles as follows:
2 Pole = 48 rev/s
4 Pole = 24 rev/s
6 Pole = 16 rev/s
8 Pole = 12 rev/s
