Virtual Construction

What is the best part of being on the Virtual Construction Team at ColonialWebb? According to Brad Mohler, Virtual Construction Manager, it’s being the first in the company to begin actual work on a new construction project! With only a fresh set of digital documents, this team begins to bring systems to life in the virtual world. From purchasing to prefabrication to field installation, this department is a critical component for providing guidance on how the finished product will be delivered to the customer.

Using Building Information Modeling (BIM), they cut field installation times for projects, improve productivity, and reduce conflicts and changes during construction.

And, says Brad, “Every item that is prefabricated for every project starts in this department and that’s just cool! But even cooler is knowing that one day the virtual building will be constructed in the real world with the efforts our entire team has invested.”
