Maximize construction efficiency with constructible models and clash detection

Regarding construction projects, it is common practice that various teams must create their 3D models that fit together like puzzle pieces. However, when combined, these models can often have conflicts and inconsistencies, causing extra work and expenses sometimes discovered on-site. That's why truly constructible models are essential in construction projects – they can help identify and report any potential collisions between different elements within a structure's model, like a pipe intersecting with a steel beam.

Clash detection in BIM projects is crucial for structural engineers, business owners, concrete contractors,  and other construction parties. It helps identify interferences between various disciplines before construction begins. Clash detection ultimately increases productivity, minimizes rework and downtime, and enhances project outcomes at the construction site. 

Take control and deliver a common understanding with data-rich models to enhance efficiency in every phase of your project.
