Architectural BIM Modeling
Developed LOD 350 architectural models for the main building, garage office, and detached bedroom units to a consistent standard.
Beachside Resort
Clash-Free BIM Coordination for Beachside Resort Hawaii, USA
High-precision LOD 350 modeling across architecture, structure, and MEP ensured seamless coordination for a fast-paced resort project.
Overview
Project Overview
A BIM delivery partner required coordinated Revit models for a large beachside resort development in Hawaii, USA. The project featured three buildings — a main building, a garage office, and detached bedroom units. Spread across a total area of 40,000 sq. ft., the project scope required LOD 350 modeling across Architecture, Structure, and MEP disciplines.
Our team of five delivered fully integrated Revit models with thorough clash coordination, on time, within three weeks.

Tools We Use
Inside the Tools You Already Use
Delivery ran in Autodesk Revit and Navisworks so coordinated models and clash reviews landed in platforms the project team already uses.

Client Challenges
Pain Points of the Client
Multi-building resort delivery, coastal site constraints, and a compressed three-week window shaped the engagement.
01
Multi-Building Coordination Complexity
Managing coordination across multiple buildings increased the risk of inconsistencies and delayed design integration.
02
High LOD Requirement Across All Disciplines
LOD 350 demands precise element geometry and spatial relationships across all trades, that required specialist modeling expertise.
03
Tight Delivery Window of Only Three Weeks
The project demanded fast-paced, accurate execution across five team members with zero room for rework due to coordination errors.
04
Site-specific Coastal Constraints Affecting All Systems
A beachside resort setting introduced unique structural and MEP routing challenges not present in standard commercial building projects.
05
Three-building Integration
Coordinating consistent LOD 350 modeling standards across three structurally distinct buildings simultaneously.
06
MEP Routing in Tight Zones
Routing mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems without clashing with structural elements in constrained ceiling and wall zones.
07
Cross-discipline Clash Volume
High clash density between Architecture, Structure, and MEP systems required systematic detection and iterative resolution cycles.
08
Compressed Timeline with Full-scope Delivery
Delivering fully coordinated models across all disciplines within a three-week deadline required strict workflow discipline.
Our Approach
How We Solved It
A five-person BIM team integrated all disciplines from day one through parallel modeling, structured clash cycles, and daily coordination.
Structural BIM Modeling
Built structural models aligned with architectural layouts and prepared for multi-trade coordination across all three buildings.
MEP System Modeling
Modeled mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems with precise routing through constrained coastal building zones.
Clash Detection and Resolution
Ran systematic clash detection cycles in Navisworks, logging and resolving issues before final model sign-off.
Multi-trade BIM Coordination
Maintained daily coordination across five specialists so every issue was assigned, tracked, and closed before delivery.
Execution Strategy
Structured Multi-Building Coordination Workflow
We deployed a team of 5 BIM experts and a standardized workflow to integrate all disciplines from day one. Parallel modeling, structured clash cycles, and daily coordination kept the project on track. Every issue was logged, assigned, and resolved before final model sign-off.
