Position Details

Job Title: BIM Modeller

Location: Thane, Maharashtra

Experience Required: Min 1 years

Employment Type: Full-time

Reporting To: BIM Manager / Senior Project Manager

Key Responsibilities

Model Development & Management

• Architecture:Develop and maintain detailed 3D BIM models for architectural elements (walls, floors, ceilings, roofs, doors, windows, furniture, and finishes) using Revit Architecture.
• Structure:Create and manage structural BIM models including foundations, columns, beams, slabs, shear walls, and reinforcement (rebar) details using Revit Structure.
• LOD Compliance:Create and manage models adhering to project-specific LOD (Level of Development) standards (LOD 200 to LOD 500) and client specifications.
• Family Creation:Create parametric Revit families for architectural components and structural connections.

BIM Coordination & Clash Detection

• Inter-disciplinary Coordination:Perform regular clash detection between Architectural/Structural elements and MEP systems.
• Resolution:Coordinate with MEP engineers and other trade leads to resolve modeling conflicts (e.g., beam penetrations for ducts, ceiling heights vs. pipe runs).
• Meetings:Participate actively in BIM coordination meetings and technical workshops.
• Reporting:Document and communicate clash resolutions and design changes to project stakeholders.

Documentation & Drawing Generation

• Construction Documents:Generate complete sets of construction drawings, including General Arrangement (GA) drawings, floor plans, elevations, sections, and site plans.
• Structural Detailing:Prepare structural shop drawings, rebar detailing schedules, and steel connection details with accurate dimensions.
• Schedules:Extract accurate quantity takeoffs (concrete volume, steel tonnage, material finishes) and room data sheets from coordinated models.
• Consistency:Maintain strict consistency between the 3D model and 2D generated documentation.

Standards & Best Practices

• BIM Execution:Follow and implement project-specific BIM Execution Plans (BEP).
• Protocols:Adhere to established BIM standards, layer management, and naming conventions.
• Quality Control:Maintain model health through regular audits, purging unused elements, and warning resolution.
• Compliance:Ensure models comply with relevant building codes (NBC/IBC), local regulations, and safety standards.

Collaboration & Communication

• Teamwork:Work collaboratively with Senior Architects, Structural Engineers, and Contractors.
• Support:Provide technical support to the design team regarding Revit quirks and workflow optimization.
• Version Control:Maintain clear documentation of model structure, worksets, and revision history.

• Working knowledge of Revit (for coordination purposes).
• Proficiency with CAD software (AutoCAD) for detailing and drafting.
• Experience with BIM coordination tools (Navisworks Manage).

Technical Knowledge:

• Architecture:Strong understanding of building envelopes, interior fit-outs, detailing, and materials.
• Interior Fit-out:Model complex interior elements including custom joinery, millwork, cabinetry, loose furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E).
• Finishes:Manage material libraries and apply accurate textures/finishes for flooring, wall treatments, and ceiling finishes.
• Structure:Understanding of load paths, concrete reinforcement, structural steel connections, and foundation systems.
• Knowledge of construction methodologies and sequencing.
• Familiarity with industry-standard LoD frameworks.

Communication & Collaboration:

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.
• Ability to interpret architectural sketches and structural design intent into 3D models.
• Strong spatial visualization skills.

Soft Skills:

• High attention to detail (essential for clash-free models).
• Ability to manage multiple tasks and meet tight deadlines.
• Self-motivated with the ability to work independently.
