Structural Coordination

Structural clashes are the hardest to resolve in the field.

A beam depth conflict discovered after concrete is poured is an engineering redesign, a coring operation, or a schedule delay. At LOD 350, it's a model update. Bimvyne finds structural conflicts when there's still time to act on them.

Why structural clashes are so costly to fix

Structural geometry is foundational — changes cascade across all other disciplines and require engineering redesign sign-off.

Beam/Column Conflicts

MEP systems routing through the structural bay often conflict with beam depths and column locations that weren't reflected in early-stage coordination. At LOD 350, these become hard constraints.

Slab Penetrations

Slab openings for pipes, conduits, and ductwork must be coordinated with structural reinforcement. Conflicts discovered post-pour require coring — a significant cost and delay.

Foundation & Embed Conflicts

Embed plates and anchor bolt layouts conflict with MEP rough-in locations. Foundation clashes are the hardest to resolve once concrete is poured.

Bimvyne Solution

Structural clash types and LOD requirements

Bimvyne's structural clash analysis is calibrated to LOD context. We don't flag schematic-phase geometry as hard conflicts — we understand what constitutes a real coordination issue at each project stage.

LOD 200–300: Conceptual spatial conflicts

Flags gross spatial conflicts where structural geometry clearly violates MEP routing zones. Used for early-stage red flags, not hard coordination requirements.

LOD 350: Full coordination clashes

At LOD 350, structural geometry includes connection details and embed locations. Bimvyne detects precise geometric intersections with full severity scoring. This is the primary coordination stage.

LOD 400–500: As-built verification

Post-construction clash review for as-built documentation and punch-list verification. Track what was coordinated versus what was built.
