Hail Municipality has launched the advanced digital design review system "BDRE", which aims to increase the rate of compliance of engineering offices with the requirements of Saudi Building Code. The system provides unified drawing standards for engineers, which facilitates the drawing process, improves accuracy through the use of supporting artificial intelligence techniques, automatically and accurately detects and clarifies errors in the plans before their implementation, in addition to achieving transparent governance of engineering plans approval processes without the need for human intervention, and the ability to digitize engineering plans and benefit from them in predicting future needs.
The Secretariat indicated that the system provides unified drawing standards for engineers, which facilitates the drawing process, improves accuracy through the use of supporting artificial intelligence techniques, automatically and accurately detects and clarifies errors in the plans before their implementation, in addition to achieving transparent governance of engineering plans approval processes without the need for human intervention. The Building Design Review Engine (BDRE) provides detailed information on blueprints, blueprint conformance reports, reports of materials used in construction projects, and bills of quantities for components.
