FEWA Office Addition BIM Modeling & Construction Documentation

Project Overview

Project Name: FEWA (Federation of Employers and Workers of America) Office Addition

Location: Bay City, Texas, USA

Project Type: Office Building Addition

Project Duration: 1.5 Months

eLogicTech provided comprehensive Building Information Modeling (BIM) services to support the schematic design and construction documentation phases of the FEWA office addition project. The engagement focused on developing coordinated 3D models, aligning existing and proposed conditions, and producing construction-ready documentation to support efficient project execution.

Client Challenge

Office addition projects demand precise integration between existing structures and new construction while maintaining documentation accuracy for approvals and execution.

Key project challenges included:

• Aligning as-built drawings with new schematic design intent
• Coordinating existing and proposed building conditions within a single BIM environment
• Preventing documentation inconsistencies between model and construction drawings
• Delivering construction-ready documentation within a compressed schedule

The client required a dependable BIM partner to ensure coordinated modeling and reliable construction documentation while minimizing design conflicts and execution delays.

Scope of Services

eLogicTech delivered end-to-end BIM support from schematic design through construction documentation.

Core Services Included:

• Existing and proposed conditions modeling
• BIM-based design coordination
• Development of coordinated 3D Revit model
• Preparation of complete Construction Documentation (CD Set)
• Integration of as-built information into final documentation

Technologies & Platforms

• Autodesk Revit
• BIM 360
• AutoCAD
• Bluebeam

BIM Execution & Coordination Approach

A structured BIM workflow ensured alignment between client inputs and construction deliverables.

Existing Conditions Integration

• Incorporated client-provided as-built drawings into BIM environment
• Updated discrepancies between legacy documentation and site conditions
• Developed accurate base model for design integration

Design Coordination

• Integrated schematic PDF designs into coordinated BIM model
• Maintained consistency between model geometry and drawing outputs
• Ensured constructability through disciplined documentation workflows

Construction Documentation Readiness

• Developed permit-ready and construction-ready drawing sets
• Delivered synchronized PDF and DWG documentation
• Maintained model-to-drawing integrity to reduce revision cycles

Deliverables

• Fully coordinated Revit BIM model
• Construction Documentation Set (PDF & DWG formats)
• Updated As-Built Conditions Documentation
• Integrated Existing & Proposed Conditions Model

Key Challenges & Solutions

Challenge: Aligning legacy as-built data with new schematic additions
