  • SPORTS_PAVILION

    Sport Pavilion is a simple project perfectly timed and done. The project was delivered on time. Few challenges faced in this project is the location of Tie beam. The beam seems be running where a full height window appears. Which affects the aesthetic view of the building. We informed the clients in prior to detailing and get the issues clarified before erection. Which made the building a wonder in reality.

    Sometimes in the process of converting a 2D design drawings to 3D model, we may face many issues. Like the conflict in design documents , clash in the structure and so on. Such issues can be resolved at the preliminary stage itself by the detailer and helps the client to have a complete view of the structure before construction. How to solve these issues?

    When modeling bigger project sometimes the Reference material like IFC, CADD layout do not match with the design documents and could cause conflict. As a detailer, Verify these conflicts with the project manager and get clarified before providing with the Fabrication and Erection drawings. Such measure when done prior could save lot of money and time for the client and the Erector.

  • Aldi Merumbula

    While detailing we must also consider the miscellaneous items like Gutter, Mechanical units etc. Detailer may ignore such items which could impact in the cost of Erection.

    We have faced and avoided one such situation such as the Gutter depth when used as specified in the design drawings conflicts with the Architectural recommended height of the structure.

    Refer below snip of the queries and suggestion made to clients sometimes provide them with a snip of the model for clear explanation of things.

  • ST Benedicts Oran Park

    Sloped roof and canopy makes the Benedicts Oran Park an excellent structure to detail.
    We must always consider while detailing if any column or member to be placed near a open full height window or open pathway care must be taken and informed the project leads. Refer below examples snip where an column is shown in Structural plan comes near an window. But the Architect plan shows a full height window.
    When such a situation arise we must inform the client regarding such issue as the column near a full height window or opening might affect the aesthetic view of the building.

  • Bega Tafe

    Bega Tafe is a simple structure. One of the things we have to note down while constructing simple structure is some members can be more than 12 meter long. Standard transportation space available for frame is 12m x 2m x 2m. Any frame or member greater than 12m has to be reported to Project Manager in prior. We suggested to include a splice connection so that it could be transported within the limit 12m x 2m x 2m. Which saved the client thousands of dollars in transportation cost (Need Special transport facility). Sometimes due to aesthetic reasons client may bare the cost but it is always better to inform the client in prior making us a experienced firm in the field of fabrication and erection.

  • Warnambool_Footbridge

    Warnambool is a city along the Great Ocean Road, in Victoria, Australia. Warnambool Footbridge is a million dollar project done quite efficiently.
    The cladding work surrounding the bridge made it to be a quite nightmare to the detailers. Several Mark-ups with 3D snips or 3D cad and BIM mark-ups were sent to the client to get a clear understanding of the conflicts and to make a perfect match for the cladding. So no rework is done on the site which in-turn could save a lot of money from client side making a happy client.

    Any clash in the members were informed in prior saving lot of rework and money. Which reduced the cost of the project saving thousands of dollars.
