OUR
BUILDING INFORMATION MODELLING (BIM)
The BIM process is not simply a compliance procedure, but has been at the core of our operations for almost 20 years. It allows us to work simultaneously alongside architects, engineers, clients, and contractors in a single model, and to identify any issues prior to commencing the project. With growing pressure for superior performance at a competitive cost, building envelopes continue to become increasingly complex. Therefore, early technical input into façade development during the schematic phase of a new building design is critically important. By running a clash detection, it identifies any areas that are in conflict and allows modifications to be made in order to avoid delays, reduce environmental impact, and costly issues in the field.
