Clash Detection
Multi-trade model coordination to catch conflicts before steel ever reaches the field.
What This Service Covers
Clash detection is the single highest-leverage step in reducing field rework on a multi-trade project. We run structural steel models against architectural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing models to identify conflicts on screen, weeks or months before they would otherwise surface on site.
Every clash detection engagement includes a prioritized report, not just a raw list of intersections, so your project team can focus on the conflicts that actually threaten schedule or cost.
Ideal For
Fabricators, general contractors, and engineering firms across the USA, Canada, UK, and Australia who need clash detection handled by a team fluent in both the drawings and the shop floor.

Clash Detection — Common Questions
