BIM & VDC

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the well-known process of creating 3D models of projects and capturing specifications for each piece of material used in those projects. BIM helps define dimensions and spatial relationships, avoid interference, assure clearance, develop material takeoffs, etc.

Virtual Design & Construction (VDC) is a computer simulation that takes the static BIM information and animates it with scheduling and progress details typically found in thousands of lines of a Gantt project schedule. VDC also integrates construction process details to provide a complete picture of the construction process. The combination of BIM and VDC enables all project stakeholders to see the project being built, virtually, and to review and optimize it.

At FT Williams & Associates, we use BIM and VDC to optimize project delivery for our clients.
