Silvester Clark has been using 3D draughting
technology for nearly twelve years, we were one of the first to use
it for production of construction drawings. We have won international
awards for our work in this area and our 3D documentation has been
recognised as being at the leading edge.
We don’t just use it to create pretty pictures; 3D models
are created for our building structures that are then used as the
basis for our construction and fabrication drawings. In this way
we actually construct the building “in our office” so
that we find and solve many problems that are otherwise often not
discovered until the building components are being fitted into
place on site. This can save precious time and money for our clients.
Many people are unable to read or understand construction drawings
they are often complex and technical and to the untrained eye can
cause more confusion than they clarify. With 3D technology, we
can provide simple, clear images and drawings of buildings or parts
of it, that leave the viewer in no doubt as to what he or she is
looking at.
We are always pushing the boundaries of new technology and looking
at new ways of providing better service to our clients. We are currently
looking at ways of using 3D models to provide even more information
for builders and building owners that will help them realise better
returns on their investments. This approach is often referred to as BIM, Building Information Management. |
