At Bimflo, we offer a construction verification service that allows the verification of different projects like Architectural, Structural and MEP which inlcudes building systems like Plumbing, HVAC duct, fire protection, mechanical as well as electrical with other disciplines of architectural and structural elements in complete synchronization with each other.
Verification during construction is not new. The highly increasing frequency for as-built point cloud scans as part of the delivery of a project is a sign that the clients are no longer relying on design models to go unchecked and issued as record information. However, the approach that contractors are taking is a reactive one which fails to make use or take the full benefit of the technology.
The positions of building components have always been checked by traditional methods, whether that is using a total station or a tape measure. Software verification is different because it seeks to verify each and every component’s position using computing power, instead of the small subset that traditional methods can check which involves errors in it.
Like many technologies, this step change has been enabled by the wide adoption of other technologies. In this case, the increasingly common use of BIM and the low cost of mass data collection using 3D laser scanning provide the reference model from the designer or fabricator and a point cloud snapshot of the current state of the build as scan data.
There are many additional advantages to performing a verification during construction. It can be used to establish if components are built out of position and will subsequently cause problems with follow-on packages. Early recognition of this sort of conflict allows time to decide whether a package needs to be re-positioned, or whether the follow-on package can accommodate the new position. It also gives a snapshot of what has been built at that point, and identifies components that are in the model but not yet built, which provides valuable support to the valuation process.
We at Bimflo, ensure to use the best technique, skills and experienced resource to provide the high quality of verification services to our clients that enables the the client to make the best out of their projects.
