Implementing BIM to Drive Fabrication

Oct 01, 2008

In January of 2008, a group of structural engineers from the Advanced Building Design division at Intertech Design set out to accomplish a large task. They were to take a department of their parent company, Curtainwall Design Consulting-TM, and completely change the way they did business. CDC has a long history of providing proven solutions for the curtain wall and façade industry. They are well known around the globe with over 19 offices worldwide, allowing them to be a part of some amazing projects. Its principals are dedicated to delivering state-of-the-art solutions to their clients. Many of their divisions, including Intertech, have done so by implementing new technologies like Building Information Modeling (BIM). It is Intertech’s history and expertise with BIM that will allow them to assist their fellow workers in making the transition to a new way of working.
