BIM

Built on screen before it is built on site. Your architect, engineers and builder work on one 3D model, so problems are solved before construction, saving time and money.

What BIM gives you

Six benefits of designing in BIM
01 / 06

Problems found early

Take one example: on site, a window drawn where a column stands stops work and costs weeks. In our model we see the same clash before construction and fix the design in minutes. The same goes for any conflict between walls, structure, openings, stairs or services.

Fewer surprises, delays and extra costs. (Example figures.)

Cost under control

The model counts every part of the design, from wall blocks to windows and floor tiles. You get a reliable cost early, while the design can still be adjusted to your budget.

You know the cost before building, not after. (Example figures.)

Accurate build time (4D)

Add time to the 3D model and you get 4D: every stage, from foundations to windows and finishes, planned week by week.

A handover date you can rely on. (Example weeks.)

Less waste

The model counts every block, so materials are ordered in the exact quantity, with no 15% extra "just in case".

Lower cost and a cleaner site. (Example figures.)

Useful for years

At handover you receive the model, not only drawings. Every part keeps its information, such as when it was installed and when it needs a service.

Easier maintenance for the life of the building. (Example dates.)

Digital twin

We solve the whole building in our software first, before anything is built.

On site, we update the model with real-world data as construction goes on, so the model always matches the building that is really there.

At handover you get a model that matches what was built. (Example figures.)

Questions clients ask

Does BIM cost more?

The design stage takes a little more work up front, because the building is modelled in detail. That effort is usually repaid on site, through fewer changes, less waste and fewer delays.

Is BIM worth it for a house?

Yes. Even for a single home, seeing the design in 3D helps you decide with confidence, and coordinated drawings mean fewer surprises for your builder.

What do I receive at the end?

A full set of coordinated drawings, material quantities and, on request, the 3D model itself, with information on every part of the building for future maintenance.

Can you work with my engineers and contractor?

Yes. We share the model in open formats such as IFC, so engineers and contractors can use it whatever software they work with.
