Our Services
We Provide Contractors, Architects, Engineers and Owners with project specific BIM/VDC solutions and deliverables.
BIM Execution Planning
Step #1 in beginning any project is planning, that holds true with the BIM process as well. The BIM Execution Plan is a comprehensive document that helps the project team identify and execute the role BIM plays in the various phases of construction management.
BIM Coordination/Clash Detection
BIM Coordination and Clash detection is the backbone for most BIM related projects. It is the process of facilitating the collaboration between multidisciplinary models, i.e. Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Fire Protection, Structural and Architectural systems. The goal is to reduce constructability issues before the construction process starts.
Presentation Modeling(Still, Animated, and Virtual)
If a picture is worth 1000 words, a 3D model is worth 1000 pictures. BIM technology is key to winning more work in an increasingly competitive industry. Not only does BIM allow GCs to meet client expectations, it also allows them to go above and beyond to impress owners.
3D Model Creation
Construction projects need to be precise, timely, and safe. But they’re also extremely complex, with many moving parts. 3D modeling allows the project team to develop a virtual prototype similar to automotive, aerospace industries to drive increased certainty of design and building process. Unlike 2D, 3D models gives the project team the ability to analyze the design by panning, tilting and rotating to gain multiple viewpoints of complex areas.
4D Scheduling
4D adds the time factor of the construction schedule to the 3D model. Directly linking each activity of a Gantt chart (generated in scheduling software such as Primavera or Microsoft Project) to the BIM.
5D Model-Based Estimating
Model-based estimating uses a 3D model instead of the traditional 2D drawings to extract quantities and develop a project cost estimate. Whenever a change is made to the model, the estimated costs can be easily, if not automatically, updated. This allows estimators to quickly see the cost implications of design changes throughout the project evolution, often referred to as iterative estimating.
Drone Flights
Drones provide construction teams with an overhead view of jobsites, materials, machinery and people. Drones can be used in multiple ways; improve owner visibility through project photos/videos, increased safety by being able to monitor and inspect hard-to-reach places, and gain real-world insight with photogrammetry for things like cut/fill analyses.
Laser Scanning
Laser Scanning is essential to any addition or restoration project. It is a means of using a laser to map an area with high accuracy. The data it provides is known as point cloud. That extremely accurate digital record(point cloud) can be used to create a 3D model that will aid in the reduction of constructability issues between existing conditions and design.
Facility Management
BIM is the management of a building's information and that information allows FMs to make informed decisions through the whole lifecycle of the facility around areas such as space use, floor planning, equipment and asset maintenance, energy consumption, and cost efficiencies.
