BIM Based Design of Hydropower in Nepal: Lower Piluwa Small Hydropower Project
The purpose of this thesis was to design a sustainable hydropower project in Nepal using BIM technology and the benefits that users can get from the BIM-based project. The thesis included a case study of a Lower Piluwa Small Hydropower Project. A comparison was made between the amount of concrete used in the powerhouse with the traditional and the BIM- based method, and the results were shown based on a model made in Tekla structures.The model was compared it with the original documents of the project. The result showed that BIM-based quantity take-off and cost estimation gave an accurate estimation of concrete use in the building and allowed for the calculation of the number of bags of cement, fine aggregates, number of bricks, and coarse aggregate. Then calculations gave the exact information about the budget needed for the project. For the case study of this thesis, phone and skype interviews were carried out, and the data related to the project were added. This might be a test project for the hydropower projects in Nepal, but the results clearly show that the use of new technology will help in every aspect of the construction industry.
