Integrating Design & Construction: Case Study Featuring Kirksey and the Award-Winning Westway Park Office Building Project
Date:
January 30, 2007 | 1PM - 2 PM | Eastern Time
Presenter(s):
Kirksey Architecture
Location: Online
Description:
In June, Kirksey was awarded the 2006 Building Information Model Award for "Inspirational Pilot Project" by the AIA Technology in Architectural Practice (TAP) Knowledge Community. The Firm's winning submission, the Satterfield & Pontikes Westway Office Building in Houston, was designed and modeled using Graphisoft's Virtual Building™ solutions, including ArchiCAD®, Constructor and Estimator.
Project Background
Because Kirksey is already committed to a model-based design approach with ArchiCAD, Satterfield & Pontikes initiated the integration between the two firms so they could work together to establish a BIM-based, replicable manufacturing process across the various stages of project programming, design and construction. By structuring the project around a design-build team consisting of the owner, general contractor, architect, structural engineer, MEP and selected subcontractors, ArchiCAD's 3D modeling tools were used to better coordinate, communicate, document and construct the three-story office building.
Attend this free webcast and:
- Learn how the use of Virtual Building (BIM) technology solutions is giving Kirksey a winning competitive advantage
- See how a model-based approach to the Westway project helped improve visualization, coordination, analysis, documentation and more.
- Learn tips for successful implementation of Virtual Building technology solutions.
- Participate in a live Q&A session with the Kirksey team at the conclusion of the webcast presentation.
