BIM & Clash Detection

Building Information Modeling (BIM) allows us to visualize potential problems and “clashes” in your building plans. With our 3D programming, we can pinpoint and solve problems virtually before the construction process begins. This part of our construction services saves clients time and money and makes sure the job is done right the first time. 

Our Software Applications

The ability to visualize a build before we even pour the foundation is a game-changer. Our team is adept at:

  • Autodesk’s Revit: Conceptual design and visualization software able to handle routine and repetitive tasks with automation. 
  • Navisworks Manage: Project review software to improve BIM coordination, able to combine both design and construction data. 

These tools allow us to virtually coordinate conflicts between various building systems in a 3D BIM. Using these systems gives us unprecedented precision and control during the construction process.

BIM & Clash Detection Process

During the BIM & Clash Detection process, the model coordinator and design team work together to proactively design, coordinate, and manage any issues that may arise. Once we create the 3D visualizations for your build, we can pinpoint costs and avoid change orders and schedule delays. At CS Construction, we offer this service early in the process, so we have a greater understanding of the design’s goals and objectives and make sure the job is done right the first time. 

Benefits of Clash Detection Services

Clash detection services are your safety net. Especially for the larger-scale and more complex commercial projects we carry out, this software allows for greater consistency and efficiency. In addition, BIM & Clash Detection reduces design errors, maximizes building space utilization, and synchronizes changes for all project managers. It’s for these reasons that we’ve been perfecting our method and software capabilities for over a decade.
