Rules for successful Integrated Planning as part of BIM

May 31, 2021

he digital planning, which can now be found in architecture and design offices, at general contractors or via prefabrication, bricklaying robots and GPS-based excavators already on the building site, is characterized by Building Information Modeling (BIM). Yet, BIM is only really an efficient and commercial option if it is paired with the integrated working method.

HOW EXPANSION JOINT EXPERTISE HELPS IMPROVE INDUSTRIAL WASTEWATER SYSTEM RELIABILITY

whitePaper | July 11, 2022

Nearly all industries have wastewater treatment plants. These facilities are designed to meet pretreatment requirements imposed by local or state governments. Pretreatment rules were enacted to prevent industrial discharges from affecting or passing through domestic wastewater treatment plants, so industry is seeing upgrades or new builds to comply. Wastewater piping systems are constructed from a variety of materials depending on the media flowing through the pipes. These pumping and piping systems can be complex, causing havoc and downtime when failures occur.

The real story on scaling 3D construction printing

whitePaper | April 12, 2022

COBOD is a globally leading company within the 3D construction printing segment. One of a few companies in this segment that has been making headlinesin the press for the commercial projects completed by the many users of its 3D construction printers around the world. Among others, they have completed the first 3D printed building in Europe, The BOD, in 2017 and Europe’s first two- and three-story buildings when most still thought it would be impossible to 3D print multi-story houses.

Engineering Data Management and Document Control

whitePaper | February 20, 2020

Engineering Data Management is all about the creation, version control and fast retrieval of documents. It has little or nothing to do with formal change management, or building a reliable audit trail. Engineering Data Management Systems should make life for the engineer as simple as possible without introducing too much complexity. Document control on the other hand, is the management of documents through their life cycle with a much higher degree of reliability for security, version control, review cycle, visibility, availability and, most importantly, for a controlled and reliable audit trail.
