The WIB Corp® — BIM modelling, coordination and management

It is the process of combining the architecture, structure and MEP models into one federated model to find clashes before construction. We coordinate the collaborative work, federate each discipline’s model and issue clash reports, so conflicts are solved in the model rather than on site.

It depends on the stage and on how the model will be used. LOD 200 is approximate geometry for schematic design; LOD 300 gives elements with accurate size and location for construction documents and coordination; LOD 350 adds the connections and interfaces between systems; LOD 400 carries the detail needed for fabrication and installation; LOD 500 is the field-verified as-built model. We model from LOD 200 to LOD 500.

The BEP sets out the project’s BIM goals, model uses, responsibilities, levels of development, deliverables and information workflow. It is the basis of BIM management: we use it to manage information in Autodesk Construction Cloud and to link the model to the construction schedule.

Yes. Quantity schedules are generated from the model, so quantities update with every design change. 3D keynotes classify each element so it can be exported to the cost catalogue that supports the budget.

Scan to BIM captures an existing building as a point cloud and models its real condition in BIM from that data. We use it to survey existing buildings and to compare construction progress against the design model.

It is the BIM model updated to match what was actually built. During construction we keep the model current as the work advances and deliver it as-built, as the record for operation and maintenance.

We have offices in San Pedro Garza García, Nuevo León, Mexico, and in Beverly Hills, California.
