VIRTUAL DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION

INNOVATIVE PARTNERSHIP

WHT’s technological approach to improving project delivery’s overarching goal is to increase value by decreasing risk, increasing predictability, and decreasing rework.

TWİCE, MEASURE ONCE; CUT ONCE OUR METHOD

You can get better results in the real world by “building” a digital prototype several times in the virtual world to optimize a design. WHT’s guiding approach to utilizing technology to improve project delivery is to deliver significantly more value through increased predictability, less risk, and decreased rework.

As pioneers in VDC tools and procedures for quite some time, we are well aware that technology cannot guarantee the quality of deliverables that everyone has grown to anticipate. Based on our findings, the most effective approaches combine technological advancements with a collaborative mindset, such as design-build or integrated project delivery (IPD).

THE DIFFERENCE OF THE WHT Advantage

Using tools like Building Information Modeling (BIM), laser scanning, aerial capture, and 4D visual planning, among others, WHT efficiently builds using the correct people, processes, and technology. Our teams’ expert implementation and improvement of cutting-edge, relevant technology result in better value and savings, along with creative and practical solutions.

By eliminating uncertainty during construction, VDC improves information that can be used throughout a building’s life cycle, increases collaboration, and decreases waste. As a result, it is integrated into the WHT strategy.

Virtual Design and Construction (VDC): Building the Future, Today

At WHT, we harness the power of cutting-edge Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) technologies to revolutionize the way we plan, design, and execute construction projects. Our advanced VDC capabilities enable us to deliver superior results with enhanced efficiency, accuracy, and collaboration.

At WHT, our VDC capabilities aren’t just tools—they’re a fundamental part of our approach to modern construction. By leveraging these advanced technologies, we deliver projects that are not only built to the highest standards but are also optimized for efficiency, sustainability, and long-term value. Choose WHT for a construction partner that brings your vision to life with precision and innovation.

WHT’s VDC Approach:

  1. Building Information Modeling (BIM) • Create detailed 3D models of projects before breaking ground • Integrate all building systems for comprehensive visualization • Identify and resolve potential conflicts early in the design phase
  2. 4D Scheduling • Link 3D models with project timelines for visual project sequencing • Optimize construction schedules and resource allocation • Enhance communication of project milestones to all stakeholders
  3. Virtual Reality (VR) Walkthroughs • Immersive experiences for clients to explore designs before construction • Facilitate better decision-making and reduce change orders • Improve safety training for on-site personnel

 4. Augmented Reality (AR) for On-Site Coordination • Overlay digital  information onto real-world job sites • Enhance accuracy in equipment  and material placement • Streamline quality control and inspection processes

5. Laser Scanning and Point Cloud Technology • Create precise as-built       documentation for renovation projects • Ensure accurate measurements  and spatial relationships • Facilitate seamless integration of new    designs  with existing structures

6. Prefabrication and Modular Construction Planning • Optimize off-site fabrication processes • Reduce on-site construction time and minimize waste • Improve quality control and safety

Benefits of WHT’s VDC Services:

  • Enhanced Project Visualization: Clients and stakeholders gain a clear understanding of the project before construction begins.
  • Improved Coordination: Detect and resolve clashes between different building systems early, reducing costly on-site conflicts.
  • Increased Efficiency: Streamline workflows and optimize resource allocation throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Cost Savings: Minimize change orders, reduce rework, and improve overall project cost-effectiveness.

 

  • Better Risk Management: Identify and mitigate potential issues in the virtual environment before they become real-world problems.
  • Sustainability Optimization: Analyze and improve energy performance and sustainable design features virtually.
  • Facilitated Facilities Management: Provide comprehensive digital models for more efficient long-term building operations and maintenance.
