Pre-Construction Services
sCONS is known for providing value to project stakeholders early in the construction process whether a design build project, or a traditional workflow. With specialized construction knowledge, effective collaboration methods and applications, sCons have achieved and delivered value through true integration between design and construction.
1.Pre-Construction Modeling (LOD 300)
sCons are strong proponents of Reinforcement detailers and Concrete modeler working directly with the structural engineer, or general contractor during the design and tender stage. Using specialized cloud-based software to rapidly deliver designed and optimized connected models early in the project, Scons approach eliminates double handling, reduces the number of RFI’s (requests for information), and change orders later in a project.
2. LOD 400 Modeling
At sCONS, we believe developing an LOD 400 connected model brings tremendous tangible and intangible value to the Reinforcement fabrication contract as it allows you to “look before you leap”. When sCONS develops a LOD 400 Fabrication Ready model, we confirm factors like actual Reinforcement locations, clearances required. Additionally, unlike simpler LOD 200 or 300 models, the LOD 400 models can actually be used for fabrication, and highly accurate model and placing plans can be generated. We provide accurate representation of all Fabrication/Installation details, period The result is a massively streamlined RFI resolution process, less headaches, and a more efficient process.
3D Reinforcement Modeling
sCONS team of experienced Reinforcement detailers utilize modern 3D technology solutions to design, model and detail reinforced concrete structures. We provide structural Reinforcement modeling and detailing services for the structural Reinforcement connections and reinforcements at LOD 400 as per company and industry standards. Our 3D Reinforcement model provides accurate shop drawings for easy Reinforcement installation at the site.
Major benefits realized from the application of sophisticated 3D modeling tools include early detection of interferences, greater efficiency in change management, precise take-offs, material management, reduction of errors, and clearer interpretation of design drawings. Strong proponents of BIM and a multidisciplinary workflow, sCONS is keen to incorporate other stakeholders in a BIM workflow. In doing so, sCONS technology-centric approach simplifies details, increases productivity and facilitates integration between design, detailing and construction teams.
