Building Information Modeling (BIM) is changing how buildings, infrastructure, and utilities are planned, designed, built, and managed. D.J Fitzpatrick Consulting Engineers can provide solutions to help turn information into insight and deliver business value at every step in the process.
Our Building Information Modelling (BIM) service provides the client with an intelligent 3D model of their development. Using the model we carry out a Virtual Construction Analysis of the building to test for construct-ability and potential conflicts.
The results of this analysis allow us to accurately predict how various construction disciplines designs will integrate on-site, thus eliminating costly time delays due to potential on-site clashes and design changes. Our BIM process can begin at either the concept / planning phase or pre-construction phase. Combining information from the Architectural, Structural and MEP design teams we create an intelligent 3D Virtual As-Built Model. This can contain as much information as the client requires, even down to the fit-out and finishes of the building.
“For designers of any structure, there has to be sufficient knowledge for them to feel confident that the proposed structure will be both strong enough and stiff enough while also being affordable."
