BUILDING INFORMATION MANAGEMENT
At SSA, quality is a priority. We have developed our documentation management system on a BIM basis, using REVIT as our central BIM system; our documentation is based on 3D modelling of the project. The ability to virtually construct a building allows us to eliminate the risk of common mistakes that occur in traditional 2D drafting software, such as AutoCAD.
Our BIM process ensures projects are delivered precisely with a high quality.
- 3D modelling of structural and building services elements
- Bi-directional linking between Architecture, Structure and Services models
- Clash detection
- Utilizing visualisation to refine the design
- BIM Integrated structural and services documentation
- Accurate construction modelling and as-built documentation
