Understand the Importance of the Right Level of Detail
Tradeoff Between Detailed Information and Ability to Create, Analyze and Understand Different VersionsLessons Learned
Why are we doing this?Develop a solution for our clientsCreate a consistent information flow that everyone can understand
How are we doing this?CommunicationDefine the correct level of detail and abstractionMutually crafting a process that has enhanced an integrated practice approach, while further strengthening our relationships
ObjectivesEliminate Miscommunication / Uncertainty / ReworkEnhanceCoordination / Analysis / Program Validation
What Has Been Accomplished?
Reduction in field changes, tightened subcontractor bids, and improved information flow throughout the design and construction process.
Clarity in design communications based on BIM visualization platforms. Three dimensional presentations of information allow everyone to see the project components and how they work together. This quickly and clearly conveys ideas and intent.
Higher quality design that is not delayed during construction because of rework.
What Has Been Accomplished?Ability to identify collisions
Ability to visualize what is being built in a simulated environment resulting in fewer errors and corrections in the field
Higher reliability of expected field conditions, allowing for opportunity to do more prefabrication or materials offsite, which is usually of a higher quality at a lower cost
The ability to do more what if scenarios, such as looking at various sequencing options, site logistics, hosting alternatives, cost, etc.
