BIM Structural Modeling Services
We deliver precise structural BIM services helping you visualise, optimize and coordinate your structural designs, from concept to the construction stage of your project. We assist global AEC professionals improve their design accuracy and coordination.
What is BIM Structural modeling?
Structural 3D modeling involves precise digital 3D models of structural design elements – involving beams, slabs, columns, etc., by using advanced software like Autodesk Revit. These data-rich models help in multidisciplinary coordination, structural analysis, early clash detection, quantity takeoff and create sustainable designs, while minimizing extra costs, errors or potential rework. Today, bim structure modeling has become integral to large-scale infrastructure projects, high-rise buildings and even in retrofitting and renovation.
With a team of certified Civil and Structural engineers, we bring years of global professional experience in delivering high-quality Revit BIM structural models with accuracy and precision. With our structural bim outsourcing services, we significantly reduce structural modeling software and production costs while supporting coordination and visualisation.

Our Structural Modeling workflow
Defining Project Scope and Parameters
The process begins by understanding the project's scope, requirements and gathering all inputs - including CAD drawings, PDFs or even scanned point cloud data. This helps us define the structural modeling scope, determine the level of detail (LOD) required and establish coordination with clients.
Setting up the Template and Model environment
To start the 3D modeling, a Revit project environment is created using a specific project-appropriate template with units, tags, families and elements to ensure consistency and compatibility across stakeholders, which helps in smoother collaboration.
Creating the 3D structural Model
With a strong foundation, we start modeling the structural framework by creating the columns, beams, slabs and foundation - all using Revit’s modeling tools. With detailed and precise modeling, it evolves into a true data-rich representation of the structural design.
Analyzing the Structural model
We keep analyzing this 3D BIM structural model using Revit’s integrated structural analysis tools for performance evaluation - our analysis helps us collaborate with the project team to analyze their design, detect any issues and risks and coordinate design changes.
Running Quality Checks & Team Coordination
Before moving to the final step, internal quality checks and model verification are done to ensure that it follows the required LOD levels and showcases true structural design intent. The model is shared with the design team for any interdisciplinary coordination, clash detection, and feedback integration.
Generating Final Deliverables & Export
Finally, we export the 3D structural model to any required file formats while ensuring you get a model that is construction-ready. Further, it can be integrated seamlessly into your workflow and any feedback you might have, we will be happy to incorporate it instantly.

Revit Structural Modeling Made Simple
Setting Project Parameters for Structural Modeling
Firstly, we begin by creating a new project in Revit, setting up project parameters and defining the structural requirements. Progressively, we develop the structural framework by creating columns, beams, and foundations using Revit's modeling tools.
Detailed Structural Modeling in Revit
Secondly, we add structural elements such as slabs, walls, and bracing systems to complete the structural model. We apply appropriate structural connections and detailing to ensure an accurate representation of the design.
Analyzing 3D Structural Model
Consequently, we analyze the structural model using Revit's integrated structural analysis tools for performance evaluation. We also collaborate with project team members by sharing the structural model and coordinating design changes.
Exporting Structural 3D Model
Finally, we export the structural model to required file formats as required for construction and coordination purposes. We welcome feedbacks from our customers and integrate them to the model instantly.

Frequently Asked Questions - FAQs
What is structural BIM service?
Structural BIM Services is the process of creating a 3D Revit model that includes key structural elements like beams, columns, foundations etc. These models are developed with different Levels of Detail (LOD) based on project needs from LOD 300 for basic design and coordination, LOD 400 for construction ready details, to LOD 500 for as-built documentation.
What’s the difference between Architectural and Structural BIM modeling?
Architectural BIM modeling involves creation of doors, windows, walls, staircase, floors etc., whereas structural bim modeling involves creation of columns, beams, foundation, rebar, shear wall etc, in a 3D BIM software such as AutoDesk Revit. The 3D models include information such as precise geometry, materials, quantities, and cost-related information.
What are BIM services for structural engineers?
Structural BIM services involve creation of detailed structural Revit models that are used for quantity takeoffs, cost estimation, clash coordination and accurate framing & rebar drawings. The BIM models support coordination and better decision making throughout the design process.
What file formats are used in BIM structural modeling?
We use AutoCAD DWG or PDF drawings for structural modeling in Revit.
