How Quality Construction Modeling and Detailing Can Bolster Sustainability Outcomes in Construction

Construction Modeling and detailing of everything from steel, concrete, timber and vendor items can play an important role in bolstering the sustainability credentials of construction projects. Pre-construction planning, modeling and detailing can assist in minimising waste, reducing rework and the consumption of these raw materials.

How Thinking Digital, and Leveraging Our Past, Can Make the Most Complex Infrastructure Project Simpler

The construction and infrastructure industry needs digital disruption. According to research by McKinsey & Company, large construction projects typically take approximately 20 per cent longer to finish than scheduled and are up to 80 per cent over budget.

Why Precise Structural Steel Detailing is Critical for Complex Projects

To ensure millimeter-perfect dimensions and designs, structural steel detailing requires high-quality and precise 3D modeling. This modeling provides a suite of data and information to produce other 2D drawings and deliverables, and can be undertaken through several steel detailing software packages.

What is a Digital Twin?

A federated dataset that we might be familiar with in project delivery, generally in the form of a Navisworks model (or similar), is not the same thing as a Digital Twin.

What the Tech?! What Software is Used in Steel Detailing and Why?

Both Tekla Structures and Autodesk Advance Steel enable DBM Vircon to create 3D building information models. These highly accurate 3D models then allow DBM Vircon to produce 2D drawings and other deliverables, like CNC files for plate cutting and drilling.

How Visualizations and 3D Animations Simplify Complexities and Improve Safety Outcomes for Mining, Oil and Gas Projects

Industrial visualizations offer a major step-change in how mining and oil and gas assets can be operated and maintained. They deliver real-time, realistic and technically accurate representations of complex assets, resulting in increased levels of communication, clarity and engagement for all stakeholders.

De-risk Major Transport and Infrastructure Project Delivery Through Meaningful Visualization

Industrial visualizations offer a major step-change in how infrastructure assets can be built, operated and maintained. They deliver real-time, realistic and technically accurate representations of complex assets, resulting in increased levels of communication, clarity and engagement for all stakeholders.

National Standard on Building Information Modeling (BIM)

Given the benefits of Building Information Modeling to the construction sector, a Knowledge and Skills Framework is necessary to ensure that Australia harnesses BIM’s potential and strategically engages and applies this new technology in a consistent manner.

Innovative Building Information Model (BIM) Workflows

As a global Building Information Modeling (‘BIM’) and detailing firm, BDS VirCon has worked with a wide variety of clients including owners, engineers, general contractors, EPCM firms and fabricators on commercial and industrial projects.
