Generating Complicated Façade Design Models, a Challenge?
BIM has brought a revolution in Facade technology with an increase in productivity of Architects & Facade Engineers by 25% through reduction in errors and reworks. Facade design is an extremely professional task requiring a distinguished appearance, technical functionality and significant investment in installation planning.
We have expertise in generating complicated Facade Design models, through our understanding of modern design science and by empowering architects with highly meaningful information models. We are dedicated to simplify the Facade Design, Fabrication and Installation process through the implementation of BIM. We are equipped with modern technology and we offer comprehensive support and consultation to Architects & Facade Designers for verification of the design and enhancing the constructability of the Facade systems.
What We Do
We provides Facade BIM Services for Urban Infrastructure, High-rise Buildings, Shopping Malls, Hotels, Resorts, Skyscrapers, Apartments, and Commercial Buildings. Our Façade BIM Services includes:
- 3D Façade Modeling for Glazing & Cladding Systems
- Facade BIM Services Coordination (Resolution of Clashes with Architecture, Structure, Interior & MEP Models)
- Facade Shop Drawings
- Facade BOQ or Material Take-off
- As-built Facade Modeling
Our Capabilities
Facade Modelling Services
Our Facade BIM Modellers helps our clients to develop complicated models for Glazing & Cladding systems, Door, Windows, Canopies, Skylights etc. We use digital design delivery to overcome design challenges and deliver higher productivity and quality while reducing turn- around time, cost, and risk.
Facade BIM Coordination
Our Facade BIM Coordinators ensure that the design is fully coordinated among the other trades involved. We use tools like Autodesk Navisworks & Solibri Model Checker to visualize and document the potential clashes found.
Facade Shop Drawings
Our Facade team ensures that BIM is utilized to its best to deliver accurate Shop & Fabrication Drawings extracted from a fully coordinated 3D Model. All our work process is in compliance with the UK Level 2 BIM Standards.
Facade Quantity Take-off
Our BIM team helps our clients to Calculate the BOM/ BOQ during the Tender phase for Bid purposes and later during the construction stage for Procurement of Materials. All our estimates are derived from a 3D model making it less prone to mistakes and errors.
Case Studies
Jumeirah Gate Tower is a 77 floored Residential/ Hotel Apartment in Dubai, UAE. The Scope of Work involves LOD 400 Modelling & Coordination of External Facade System.
The project involves the Façade Modelling with a Level of Detail of LOD 300 and thereafter the up gradation of the model to LOD 500 after receiving the as‐built updates.
Metro Extension, Qatar
A Extension of Metro Station Bridge in Doha, Qatar. Where the scope involves the LOD 400 BIM Modelling & Shop Drawings Extraction of the Exterior Curtain Wall Systems.
