Steel detailing is one of the most essential components in a long
chain of creation — without it, schools, shopping malls and
skyscrapers could never be completed. Being closely linked to the
other providers in that chain is critical for the operations, but it
can affect the business in fundamental ways: fortunes, workflows, and
even the technologies we rely on are all interdependent.
As a result, a change that starts anywhere in that chain will
eventually ripple all the way through it. That means the increasingly
widespread use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and 3D
workflows by designers, builders, and others in the industry will
affect the detailing company as well — if it hasn’t already. BIM
creates efficiency and users will get several benefits, the greatest
potential of BIM is realized through its potential to cut down rework
which eventually improves productivity.
BIM also minimize conflicts and changes during construction, clash detection is an integral part of BIM Modeling. Once the disciplines finish the work/ Model, the chances for clash to occur are high as it occurs when elements of different model occupy the same space. Clash Detection helps in the effective identification, inspection and reporting of interferences in 3D project model. It helps check completed or ongoing work and reduces the risk of human errors.
The need of Steel Detailing companies to switch from 2D CAD to 3D BIM
is all the more necessary due to the vast importance of BIM.
The main points are as follows:- - To bring down production cost:
The Change from 2D to 3D BIM in construction projects is aimed to reduce cost and time. Steel detailing company does not keep the projects cost-effective compared to BIM where the workflow allow companies to estimate cost, reduce rework and eliminate production scrap.
- Time for tool sharpening:
The necessities of implementing a 3D detailing solution is already explained as above. The move from 2D to 3D, however benefits workflows in ample ways for eg., Improved interoperability, increased efficiency, and a reduction in fabrication errors mean the software often pays for itself quickly.
- Evolving Workflows
Prior to the implementation of 3D software and once the transition from 2D to 3D is complete, companies often find their detailing and fabrication workflows to be very different.
With Advance BIM Software the checking time has been greatly reduced
and there’s confidence in the output. Advance steel is the
fundamental change in the construction process where one can look at
the building model from all ends and right through design and
drafting.
The
Chain of Change
What’s reshaping the industry isn’t just 3D model–based technology, but also the ways that technology is being used to connect project teams and to keep data moving smoothly from one phase to the next. Many contractors now prefer — or require — that the members of their project teams use BIM, so detailing companies that haven’t yet determined their BIM strategy risk losing out on contracts.
Silicon Engineering Consultants Limited, understand the essentials of healthy and perfect environment for living. We as steel detailing companies use 3D BIM for better production output; we understand client’s need and prioritize the work accordingly. We work on various sectors, from Structure to Architecture and Mechanical to Electrical. We have completed various projects in Building Information Modeling.
