A construction plan is a detailed document, both written and visual which outlines how you will complete a project or portion of one. Depending upon the phase of the project you may not have a full set of drawings available. Drawings Specifications Existing Services Google Maps Contracts. Provide a construction drawing.

Because you need to own the drawings to have sufficient access to the CAD objects, or be on a truly team-oriented project that shares its resources openly among all project players. Additionally, built-in clash-detection attributes prohibit drawing ducts through windows, or electrical lines through ducts. Why Design-Build?

In the interim, BIM will be relegated to 3d visualization and an organic growth output of 2D CAD, vs. the process of efficiently managing the built environment supported by digital technology. Integrated Project Delivery – IPD, Job Order Contracting, and similar LEAN construction methods will need be become mainstream.

The fact that we can generate elevations and sections easily and that they are derived from the model without drawing them completely from scratch is wonderful.
