BIM adoption is booming in the construction industry due to its benefit of identifying the clashes at the very early stage in the construction process which makes the project model for the contractors and owners much easier and less time consuming. Clashes in the construction process occur when the parts or components that make up the built asset is not appropriately coordinated and makes a place for conflict to occur.

Clash Detection Services is a component of the BIM process where the construction professionals such as contractors, sub-contractors, etc. can identify the clashes in the construction process and resolve them within Architectural, Structural and MEP discipline. 3D BIM Model helps to resolve clashes in less time through an automated approach.

Clash Detection Software such as Navis works helps us to identify, review and report clashes from the 3D BIM Model which is created by combining a model of different disciplines in a shared single BIM Model. At the initial stage if clashes are detected and resolved can minimize cost, effort and time.

Through Bim Modeling Services the architects and the designers overlay the drawings to check if there is any conflict. The software automatically detects clashes in the process and resolve it before the actual construction begins. Clashes are determined during the design stage where the constructability issues such as interdisciplinary collaboration increased, reduce delays, material waste and construction rework are resolve before construction to save cost and time of producing a building.

Conclusion

BIM Clash Detection elements in a 3D Modeling software helps to ensure minimal chances of rework as errors are a lesser, consistent and technical perfect design that leads to a productive and profitable construction process which adds significant value to all the stakeholders. The most significant impact for improvement and better enhancement can be dealt with Level 3 BIM. Working on a collaborated and coordinated project model makes the process of clash detection reduced.

Clash detection without the use of BIM Software could have been a costly affair and time-consuming as rework would be possible once the construction of the structures is made complete.
