Understanding BIM Clash Detection and it’s uses ■BIM modeling is an efficient and effective means of constructing 3D virtual models and is an integral part of designing practice. It has improved Construction performance and enhanced designs. Along with all these benefits BIM modeling also permit active collaboration and communication between the civil, mechanical, electrical engineers, architects and clients. The method of developing BIM Models demands an extremely collaborative environment where everyone can have access

to their part of the work. At the end when all the disciplines are added, it is vital to detect and solve any possible clashes.

BIM Clash Detection

Understanding BIM Clash Detection and it’s uses ■What is the Clash?

When designs from two or more elements intersect on a single platform or arranged

within a set tolerance limit, clashes occur. Clashes can be geometric, like pipelines passing through walls or schedule based clash, when different sequential phases of work are scheduled to occur simultaneously. Clash can also happen when modifications

are not made to the designs.

BIM Clash Detection

3 - Types of Clashes ■ Hard Clash - This kind of clash is said to occur with two objects are taking up the same space.

■ Soft Clash or Clearance Clash - Soft clash means that the object requires more positive geometric tolerances within their buffer zone for better accessibility, maintenance and protection.

■ Workflow or 4D Clash - Through workflow clash detection process, one can identify and fix scheduling clashes for the workers, material, fabrication and delivery clashes.

BIM Clash Detection

Why BIM clash detection is important? â– BIM Clash Detection is the most critical aspects of a pre-construction process. Clash detection method is necessary for most BIM companies, engineers and architects.

They use this strategy to solve design problems that appear in form of clashes and afterwards perform BIM Coordination before construction. One of the benefits of BIM Clash Detection is that it involves various departments to discuss design changes, detect clashes and subsequent resolution prior to BIM Coordination

process. Latest technologies like cloud make this process easier for different teams at different locations.

Why BIM clash detection is important?

■ Development of Idea:- Data offered by the clients are analyzed, creative ideas are launched in a user-friendly way.

■ Administration:- Experienced engineers and architects work on the designing project as a team.

■ BIM Coordination:- Using the latest software required designs are created.

■ Data presentation:- In the last stage, the best quality, structured project road-map is given to clients.

Understanding BIM Clash Detection and it’s uses ■ Our BIM Coordination Services improve the purpose and operability of the BIM modeling and ensure that projects are completed at right time. It creates clash-free

visual designs and saves the builders from unnecessary expenses for the construction. It accelerates the planning and development process and throws the light on the areas of unevenness and differences in the design.

■ Our services deliver solutions to residential projects as well as industrial buildings.
