Use avatars to create an innovative and more efficient way to collaborate on construction projects

Construction projects are increasingly complex and their success requires the collaboration of different professional figures. With usBIM.reality, getting geographically distant team members to collaborate will no longer be a problem thanks to the BIM metaverse.

usBIM.reality allows you to create extremely efficient design processes through avatars capable of maximizing collaboration and communication between team members. The collaboration through the avatars of the BIM metaverse allows to fully convey all the considerations, problems and needs of a project as a whole.

All users working on the project can see each other, interact and navigate the model. In addition, the “follow-me” mode allows each member of the design team to become a sort of “guide” operator to instantly bring other users to a point of interest and immediately confront a specific aspect of the project.

Discover the BIM and Metaverse integrated in usBIM

Get Real-Time rendering and immersive experiences of your 3D models right from the browser in a BIM metaverse

With usBIM.reality you display your BIM models (IFC, DWG, Revit, DXF, etc..) in a completely new way. Simply upload the file to the usBIM platform to get real-time rendering of a BIM model to browse and share in seconds.

Choose between first-person or orbital navigation and move around the model with your mouse and keyboard, change weather conditions, and take screenshots of the scene in real-time.

With usBIM.reality you can take your browsing experience to the next level. Simply with the help of a viewer and a browser you can navigate the model in immersive virtual reality and “live” the model as if it were already realized.

Not only does this offer an immersive experience, but it allows you to collaborate in an “immersive” way with other team members, as everyone can view the same model at the same time from anywhere in the world.

Take advantage of immersive virtual reality also for training, presentation and coordination activities

With usBIM.reality you can also take advantage of immersive virtual reality to improve and simplify training, presentation and coordination activities on the BIM model.

Through avatars and the BIM metaverse it is possible to carry out meetings in virtual reality, within the digital model, in a way that is very close to reality but without expense and waste of time.

usBIM.reality, in fact, allows you to enjoy in real time and through immersive virtual reality, all the features of usBIM.browser (clash, checker, modification, etc.). In this way, it is much easier and less expensive to coordinate the different disciplines thanks to a visual feedback of all the design choices made provided to all team members.

Application example in the design phase: digital and innovative management and use of the creative process of designing a High Rise Building in Dubai | usBIM.reality | ACCA software

An application example in the design phase: digital and innovative management and use of the creative process of designing a High Rise Building in Dubai

The Iuav University of Venice and the “Dynamic design DMCC, a management and design company based in Dubai, have experimented with the virtual reality tools of ACCA software during the design and presentation of a high rise building in Dubai.

In particular, during a coordination meeting of a design team, 4 different virtual reality application scenarios were experimented with:

Co-presence in the BIM model: with usBIM.reality the individual professionals of the design team were able to connect through the browser to a federated model and view the model in real time rendering. In this way, a real coordination meeting was created, where through the use of different devices (PCs, tablets and virtual reality viewers) they were able to work directly in the model in an immersive, interactive and simultaneous way through a multi-user and therefore multi-device use, for an exploratory, collaborative experience in real-time and directly in the cloud.
Design review: this activity with usBIM.reality has been made easier and more effective thanks to the "guided tour" function. It was possible to share a common point of view among all users and explore the model together, while maintaining a freedom of rotation of the subjective chamber
. In this way it was possible to highlight the objects to be submitted to the attention of the team, draw the attention of one or more stakeholders during the design review phase on a specific element of interest, save and share a new version of the model.
Real-time rendering: usBIM.reality has allowed you to interact with the BIM environment in real time. Designers were able to experiment with design changes or simulate environmental and atmospheric conditions to evaluate design choices/variations or create impactful client presentations.
Clash detection: with usBIM.reality all the design team can “enter” the federated model and visualize the clash detection through real time visualization. Through the use of virtual reality the clash is highlighted to the whole team simultaneously; in this way the level of understanding of the problem is clearly increased and the resolution is made even easier and more immediate

From these application examples it clearly emerges how virtual reality and the BIM metaverse have allowed new ways of collaborating and visualizing projects like never before, intervening on speed, efficiency and quality of the design process.

Each activity of the design phase becomes an immersive activity, increasingly closer to reality, involving greater awareness of the choices made and better coordination of the different process professionals.

What are the possible application scenarios of the BIM metaverse?

The application scenarios of the BIM metaverse for a digital and innovative use of the different phases of the building process consist of:

in the design review and client presentation (design phase);
workers training and risk management (execution phase and maintenance phase).

The BIM metaverse therefore has all the potential to revolutionize the building industry by providing better ways to interact with BIM models, to simplify project review, and to refine knowledge transfer.

The advantages of the BIM-VR combination

The BIM-VR combination allows you to enjoy the information contained within the BIM environment in an immersive way and offers numerous advantages at every stage of the construction process:

greater control over the design and better overall coordination thanks to the possibility for different users to interface and interact in an immersive way within the BIM environment;
training of the construction site team facilitated through specific simulations such as those relating to the use of PPE or the use of construction site machinery such as cranes;
support of the work on site with the simulations of procedural phases of the construction phase;
optimized workflow and construction process management thanks to the speed, clarity and simplicity with which project information can be exchanged.
