Material substitution review should check the BIM impact before approval. A substituted product may affect dimensions, weight, access, fire rating, acoustic performance, maintenance, energy data, or warranty information.
Why This Matters
Substitutions are often approved on cost or availability, but the model may reveal hidden impacts. If BIM is updated late, coordination, schedules, and handover data can become unreliable.
Practical Guidance
Check Geometry: Compare dimensions, clearances, support needs, and installation space.
Check Performance: Review fire, acoustic, thermal, electrical, hydraulic, or structural performance implications.
Update Data: Change manufacturer, model number, warranty, maintenance data, and asset records.
Record Approval: Link the substitution approval to affected model elements and drawings.
Checklist
- Compare substituted product geometry and clearance
- Review performance and compliance impact
- Update schedules, asset data, and maintenance fields
- Link approval evidence to affected model elements
LUA BIM LABS Insight
A substitution is not complete when a product is approved. It is complete when the model, data, and evidence all agree.
