In the ever-changing world of construction, each project comes with its own problems that need creative solutions. AME Construction embarked on the challenging project of i-Park at Senai Airport City, Type Y, encompassing three floors and a total floor area of 12,750 square meters. However, as with many construction endeavours, this project came with its unique set of challenges.
One of the primary challenges in this project was the coordination issues between drawings, making it imperative to find a solution for seamless collaboration. Besides, the project's fast-track nature added to the complexity, requiring streamlined processes to meet tight deadlines. AME Construction predominantly relied on traditional construction methods, which posed inefficiency and limited compatibility with modern tools. Hardware incompatibility issues hindered the adoption of advanced software solutions, affecting overall productivity.
Key Feature Highlights
To overcome these challenges, AME Construction leveraged Cubicost solutions, with a focus on TAS and TRB. They found several features to be particularly valuable:
TRB Rebar Calculation with 3D View: This feature allowed for detailed rebar calculations in a 3D visual format, enhancing precision. |
|
IFC Export: The ability to export project data in IFC format opened the doors for better collaboration and compatibility with other BIM models. |
Benefits Gained
The adoption of Cubicost solutions brought forth significant benefits:
- Speedier Quantity Take-off (QTO) Process
Cubicost solutions streamlined the QTO process, allowing AME Construction to work more efficiently. - 3D Visualisation
With the ability to 3D visualise the project, AME Construction enhanced project understanding and planning. - Seamless Integration
