2. Optimize Prefabrication
Challenge: Prefabrication is a proven
way to improve productivity and realize
cost savings. But if you lack confidence
in the accuracy of the design, you
don't want to risk prefabrication of
components only to have them not work.
Gamechanger: XR helps teams easily
visualize and verify structural elements
and ensure the accuracy of the design,
so they can realize the productivity
improvements and cost savings of
prefabricated components.
When you're able to overlay 3D models in
their exact location and position, you can
more easily verify structural features and
feel confident in the accuracy of the design.
You avoid the wasted time and materials that
come with incorrect fabrications and other
mistakes by identifying design problems before
construction occurs. Fabricators can even use
3D data and visualization to follow step-by-step
sequencing when fabricating components and
assemblies at the shop or worksite.
The use of XR helps you increase prefabrication
by making it easier to:
ý Visualize and understand the design intent
ý Ensure accurate placement of structural
elements and critical systems
ý Enable sequencing to improve fabrication
efficiency and accuracy
Watch the video to see how you can use
XR for fabrication sequencing.
90% of construction pros
improve productivity,
quality, and schedule
certainty when using
prefabricated and modular
methods compared to
traditional stick-built
construction."
