Looking just at the first floor of this 6-story mixed-use development, the clash detection analysis shows that there are a dozen areas where metal piping, equipment, ductwork, plumbing, and fire protection conflict. Once the clashes are identified, our BIM Manager is able to click on each to learn more about the item and which subcontractor owns the work. He can then add a note and assign the clash to be reviewed by the firm, allowing for greater collaboration and problem-solving.
