BIM Coordination & Clash Detection
BIM coordination and clash detection: federating discipline models, rule-based checking and tracking every conflict through to sign-off.
Coordination does not mean finding clashes. It means working through them until none is open.
How it runs
- Federating the discipline models into a coordination model
- Rule-based checking for geometric and technical conflicts
- Assessment: what is a real conflict, what is a modelling artefact
- Raised as an issue, tracked through to closure
- A record for each coordination round
The part usually missing
The assessment. An unfiltered check returns thousands of hits, most of them irrelevant. A list nobody works through is as good as no check at all.
