Modeling Workflow
 Value Driven Approach

Virtual Mock UP
Define what a virtual mockup is, the different types,
how they are used and their benefits
Summarize the information needed and processes
used to create an accurate and detailed virtual mockup
Explain the team dynamic used for virtual mockup creation
and the review process implemented for design verification
and incorporation into the Contract Documents
Define cost saving metrics associated with virtual mock-ups
and how they can benefit a project and the Owner

. Project team identifies high risk areas

. Gather data from all sources

SIMULATE
. Verify data
. Generate 3D Model
. Identify problems / ask questions

REVIEW
. Integrated team meetings
. Model = Live meeting minutes
. Share meeting model with team

APPROVE
. Document solutions – Shop Drawings
. Individual party approval per scope
. Construction team implementation

What Process is used to Create Virtual Mockups ?

What’s involved to Create Virtual Mockups ?

1 Step 1. •Finalized services zoning strategy
Previous
Analysis

2 Step 2. •Spatial planning / Priority of Services

•Trade Contractor collaborate
•Services routes / strategy are agreed
•Finalized Duct/Pipe Routing

3 Step 3. •Add detail

•Model all services-duct/pipe/elec systems
•Plant items are now more accurately sized
•Use approved content / families
•Generic content
