Revolutionizing MEP
Proper planning and coordination are the keys to the
successful execution of projects in the construction industry.
Advancements in 3D technology and the advent of
Building Information Modeling (BIM) have revolutionized the
Architectural, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry.
BIM allows stakeholders to create and examine virtual
representations of the Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing
(MEP) systems, and other utilities of their project. The
virtual construct can be used to generate accurate shop
drawings and address any and all design issues before
construction begins.
Pinnacle Infotech has been acknowledged as a global
leader in providing innovative BIM solutions. We have
received several awards and recognition from both industry
and government. NASSCOM, the leading IT trade
| EFFICIENCY : Check the accuracy and completeness of project plans and drawings before starting construction,
| SAVINGS : Pre-construction reviews mean better use of manpower, better quality construction and less waste of
time and materials, all of which translates into lower costs.
| PROJECT MANAGEMENT : The use of detailed materials such as conflict reports, sleeve drawings, hangers
and insert drawings allow for a better look at the big picture and aid in the review, scheduling and monitoring
of each project from beginning to end.
Our clients have reported cost savings of 10 - 40% by successfully implementing BIM.
eliminating delays due to pending Requests for Information (RFI) and Change Orders.
01
HVAC
Pinnacle specializes in the virtual construction of 3D BIM
models using a range of inputs including contract
documents, specification sheets, design documents and
equipment submittals. A model of the HVAC system,
including Hangers, Trapeze and seismic restrainers,
is created and augmented using information from
architectural, structural and other trade and utility sources.
The final model is generated after resolving any potential
issues by re-routing ductwork, changing elevations and
duct resizing. Value Engineering and Design Validations
are also offered.
Equipment Pad Layouts need to be accurately determined to ensure the proper installation of HVAC equipment.
The innovative use of the BIM model provides accurate pad layout with reference to the architectural grids and structural
drawings.
02
Shop Drawings
Shop drawings are created based on client standards and are useful for contractors, fabricators, suppliers and
manufacturers. These drawings are generated from coordinated HVAC BIM models and are detailed enough to use for
workshop fabrication and on-site installations.
Quantity Take-off
Quantity take-off is an automated procedure on the HVAC
model and is 100% accurate as per the design. Quantity
take-off covers all ducts, duct-fittings, equipment, hangers,
etc.
Equipment Modeling
03
Electrical
We can create a 3D BIM electrical model of all conduits, cable tray, lighting fixtures, fire alarms, and other electrical
equipment, from contract drawings, manufacturer cut-sheets based on client work process and standards.

Electrical Model
The electrical model is coordinated with architectural, structural, HVAC and plumbing models and an interference report is
created. We redesign the route, fixture, tray layout, etc. based on the interference report. An updated electrical model is
created after resolving all constructability issues with other systems. This saves rework, time and money on the site, as all
issues are resolved before construction begins.
04
Construction Documents
From our model, construction documents are generated automatically. We provide fixture, conduit locations and tray
layouts with reference to the architectural walls. This provides the electrical contractor with precise location for material
and equipment installation.

SLEEVE DRAWING
A critical component of plumbing project is proper sleeve location, inserts, and hanger positions. We can generate
accurate sleeve, penetration, and hanger locations from the plumbing model prior to the start of plumbing installation.
These drawings can be directly downloaded on GPS instruments for fast and accurate layout on site.
06
Installation Drawings
We provide detailed installation drawings to help the
contractors in planning and installing plumbing services
efficiently, saving both time and cost.
Spool Drawings
Spool drawings can be generated from the model for accurate pre-fabrication off-site / on-site. Segmented spool drawings
and a spool map with segment locations are generated in accordance with the contractors pre-fabricating standards and
preferences. Pre-fabrication significantly improves quality and reduces cost. Clients have reported cost savings
of 15-20% using this process.

Testimonial
We are thrilled to have find a group like yours that service all our MEP drafting needs, and at record response. We truly feel like
you have met and exceeded everything we could have asked of your group. We look forward to a long and bright future together.
Bobby Mayfield | MCC Group | Mechanical Contractor
Pinnacle has revolutionized the BIM elements of our company. They are extremely professional and skilled at what they do and
develop a personal relationship with ease. Since our first project, we have used Pinnacle for over a dozen and will continue to do so
consistently in the future.
Nicholas Zent | C.W. Driver | General Contractor
I was given exactly what I asked for. Everyone was very helpful and responsive. Thanks to everyone who worked on this for us.
We were in a short turn around schedule and we did not have the manpower to respond. I believe Pinnacle is a great resource for
supplementing our force. Construction is unpredictable and keeping ample coordination manpower for all situations is difficult.
Thanks again.
Larry J. Randolph | TD Industries | Mechanical Contractor
This was our first experience with Pinnacle, and we at Waldrop were satisfied with the level of performance by the Pinnacle team.
We were under extreme pressure to deliver under a tight deadline and your team aided us in doing so. We appreciate your work
to date and look forward to another successful project together.
Jamie Porterfield | Waldrop Mechanical Services | Mechanical Contractor
My experiences with Pinnacle on this project have been very good to say the least. The Meldahl project was a very complex and
demanding project. I feel that without Pinnacle's hard work, dedication and attention to detail we would not be as successful
as we have been thus far. I would also like to thank the team members for the quality work they have provided.
Kevin McGuire | Baker Concrete Construction, Inc. | General Contractor
You guys are doing an excellent job and providing my team with excellent tools to excel in our performance in the
preconstruction process.
Chris Dolan | The Whiting-Turner Contracting Company | General Contractor
Pinnacle delivers a great deal of value for a very reasonable price. They consistently deliver my expectations on-time.
This was our first project that required 3D coordination drawings. We entered this not knowing 100% on how we were going
to handle this process. We have received many compliments on the professionalism of the drawings especially the clash reports.
Pinnacle worked through the plans to solve the clashes detected and then only brought us into the process when a clash could not
be resolved without further input. With their knowledge it allowed me to concentrate on other aspects of the project. I would highly
recommend them to anyone required for coordination drawings.
Fred Prezioso | Dan-Cel Co. | Plumbing Sub-Contractor
Very much appreciate of the performance of the Pinnacle team. We will continue to work with Pinnacle; Abhik has done wonderfully
with us especially with the issues of our time difference.
Fry Kreit | Kreit Mechanical Associates, Inc. | Plumbing Sub-Contractor
Terrific team and effort. Looking forward to additional project opportunities for the Pinnacle/PPM team.
Jim Browne | PPM Inc., An EMCOR Company | Mechanical Contractor
Pinnacle did a great job on this scope of work. We will hopefully be using your services for more work in the near future.
