01 / STRUCTURAL
Structural BIM Modeling
Develop coordinated structural models representing framing systems, steel members, structural components and associated project information.
Building Information Modeling
BIM Modeling Services
Coordinated BIM and 3D modeling solutions for structural steel, architecture and multidisciplinary construction workflows — helping project teams visualize, coordinate and develop reliable digital project information.
BIM Capabilities
BIM Modeling for Better Project Coordination
Building Information Modeling provides a structured digital environment for representing building components, geometry and project information. BIM workflows can help engineers, architects, contractors and fabricators coordinate project information before construction.
02 / ARCHITECTURAL
Architectural BIM Modeling
Develop digital building models supporting visualization, documentation and coordination with other project disciplines.
03 / MEP
MEP BIM Coordination
Coordinate building services with architectural and structural models to help identify potential spatial conflicts.
04 / CAD TO BIM
CAD to BIM Conversion
Convert suitable 2D CAD information into structured BIM models while maintaining project geometry and required information.
05 / SCAN
Scan to BIM
Develop BIM models from point-cloud and laser scanning information for existing buildings and structures.
06 / FAMILIES
Revit Family Creation
Create project-specific Revit families and digital components according to required geometry and information.
07 / COORDINATION
BIM Coordination
Coordinate multidisciplinary models to improve communication between architectural, structural and MEP teams.
08 / CLASH
Clash Detection
Identify potential model conflicts and coordination issues before they become field-level construction problems.
09 / DOCUMENTATION
BIM Documentation
Support the transition from coordinated digital models to drawings and project documentation.
Structural BIM
3D Structural Models Built for Coordination
Structural BIM modeling provides a coordinated digital representation of structural systems. For steel projects, the model can support visualization, coordination, detailing and communication between engineering and construction teams.
- Structural steel 3D modeling
- Primary and secondary framing
- Structural connections and assemblies
- Coordination with architectural and MEP models
- Model-based construction documentation
Multidisciplinary BIM
BIM Across the Building Lifecycle
BIM becomes more valuable when project disciplines can work from coordinated digital information rather than isolated drawings and models.
Structural BIM
Structural framing, steel modeling, structural components, reinforcement and coordination with architectural and MEP disciplines.
Architectural BIM
Architectural building models supporting design development, visualization, documentation and multidisciplinary coordination.
MEP BIM
Mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection model coordination within the wider building model.
Construction BIM
Model coordination and digital workflows supporting construction planning, communication and constructability review.
Existing Conditions
Scan to BIM & Point Cloud Modeling
Existing buildings and structures can be represented in BIM using point-cloud and laser-scanning information, subject to project data quality and modeling requirements.
Turning Existing Conditions Into Digital Models
Scan-to-BIM workflows can help project teams work with accurate digital representations of existing conditions. These models can support renovation, retrofit, coordination, documentation and facility-related workflows.
Coordination & Constructability
BIM Coordination & Clash Detection
Multidisciplinary coordination can help project teams identify geometry conflicts and constructability concerns before installation.
Model Coordination
Identify Conflicts Before Construction
BIM coordination brings architectural, structural and MEP information into a shared digital workflow. Clash detection can then be used to identify potential intersections and coordination issues for review.
- Architectural coordination
- Structural coordination
- MEP coordination
- Hard and soft clash review
- Coordination reporting
BIM Workflow

Frequently Asked Questions
BIM Modeling Services FAQ
What is BIM modeling?
BIM modeling is the creation of a structured digital representation of a building or infrastructure project containing geometry and, depending on the project, associated information.
What is structural BIM modeling?
Structural BIM modeling represents structural systems such as steel framing, concrete elements and other structural components within a coordinated digital model.
What is Scan to BIM?
Scan to BIM is a workflow in which point-cloud or laser-scanning information is used as a reference for creating a digital BIM representation of existing conditions.
What is BIM clash detection?
Clash detection is a model-review process used to identify potential geometric conflicts between building elements or disciplines.
Can BIM models support steel detailing?
Yes. A coordinated structural model can provide a foundation for detailed steel modeling, coordination, fabrication documentation and related project workflows.
