“By standardizing on Prolog software, We have achieved a level of professionalism that is vital to the WPC brand. Everyone understands that we need to do things a certain way at a certain time and that instills quality all the way down the line from our office and field staff …

“It was clear almost immediately that we would need to call in reinforcements to help with our effort, and that we would need to find a more sophisticated way of locating and recording our findings Assistance was requested from the Australian Capital Territory Emergency Services Agency, which deployed its newly …

“The project manager for one client told us, ‘I’m a skeptic. I’m not crazy about some of these new technologies.’ Then he became a zealot within an hour because we saved him a lot of rework and mistakes that were caught early on.”

“With Tekla Structures and Trimble Connect, drawings are in sync, which means that if we amend in one model, it impacts change on other related drawings. This has greatly helped to reduce the time required for revisions.”
-
“Drawing approvals are typically timeconsuming, with the potential for errors and miscommunication amongst the various stakeholders on a project. Moving to a centralised BIM-based approval system has made a huge difference for us.”

"Working in a safety-critical industry such as nuclear, it’s essential that you have an accurate, coordinated and as-built constructible model before you reach the site and begin construction. Essentially our models achieve an as-built like status, before the concrete is poured. For example, when it came to the reinforcement and …

“There has been such a large amount of data in the model that it would have been virtually impossible to send it between partners. Only a few software solutions are able to manage such a volume smoothly, and here Tekla is absolutely superior."
-
“Usually during the design phase, it’s common to create models that are not detailed enough for actual construction. They don’t show all the welding details, plates and bolts. But for the E6 project, we modeled the structures in detail right from the early design phase, including every single piece of …

“When all the team members have access to the model and are able to modify it in real-time, then you avoid overlapping and unnecessary work. In this way, the documentation you generate from the model is correct too.”
-
"Tekla is more user-friendly than other software with good assistance, customizable, and with constant updates and improvements being made."
-
"In a way, we have many separate construction sites here: the parking, shopping center, railway station, apartments, office blocks, and hotel. Although they are separate, all Building Information Models use the same coordinate system and are compatible."
-
"Tekla Structures has helped us to accomplish many projects that were previously considered impossible, thanks to its powerful BIM capabilities that allowing us to build and manage 3D structural models in concrete and steel from concept to fabrication, resulting in a robust approach to managing large-scale construction projects."
-
“We faced some challenges due to the complexity of connections resulting from using the (Diagrid System), as well as applying preset values in nodes connections for vertical displacements, providing proposal connections to facilitate fabrication and erection and sharing them with project stakeholders, where facilitates communication among all parties. This was …

“Scaffolding is a necessary means to an end. It’s a cost and time burden that nobody wants, but you often need to have it when you fix something old or build something new. If you do it wrong, then people can get injured – or worse. There’s a scaffolding collapse …

“Being able to flip between live images and the 3D model gave a nice, visual representation of what you were currently seeing on site compared to the final end-goal.
