Challenges and Solutions:

Challenge 1: Model Accuracy in a Large-Scale Project

  • Issue:
    • Required to create a model twin with a tolerance of just 1″ deviation across a 2.8 million square feet area.
  • Solution:
    • Utilized the ‘Cintoo’ platform to integrate field scans for accurate as-built modeling, minimizing manual errors from traditional redline markups. Used Revizto for real-time monitoring and updates to manage project scale effectively.

Challenge 2: Late Integration of MHE and Header Steel Models

  • Issue:
    • Models for Material Handling Equipment (MHE) and Header Steel were introduced late, after initial coordination and installation across four levels.
  • Solution:
    • Leveraged Revizto for live coordination, enabling immediate visibility of issues and daily updates to accommodate evolving models. Ensured efficient clash coordination considering field conditions, facilitating swift issue identification and resolution.
