FOR CONTRACTORS
ON DEMAND BIM AND VDC SUPPORT
COORDINATION SUPPORT: HOSPITAL EXPANSION
Read | Thomas was selected to provide electrical modeling and coordination support for a multi-story hospital expansion in Braselton. The project required navigating a highly complex environment, with mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection systems routed through congested interstitial spaces across multiple floors of an active healthcare facility.
Our team developed detailed Revit models representing the full scope of electrical systems, supporting clash detection and multidisciplinary coordination throughout construction. The resulting models improved visibility across trades, enabling early conflict resolution, maintaining installation sequencing, and ensuring compliance with the strict code and operational requirements of a modern healthcare environment.
PROJECT SUPPORT: MEP/FP MODELING
Read | Thomas was engaged to provide MEP/FP Revit modeling support for a large-scale medical facility, featuring an extensive network of above and below-grade piping, conduit, and mechanical systems. The project introduced significant coordination challenges due to the density and complexity of interconnected systems distributed across a large campus.
Our team developed detailed Revit models representing the full MEPF scope, including pipe routing, equipment placement, and support systems, based on the provided engineering documents. These models enabled early coordination for the general contractor, reducing field conflicts and easing the coordination burden on subcontractors during construction.
PROJECT MODELING: HVAC SUPPORT
Read | Thomas was engaged to provide HVAC modeling support for a large commercial facility requiring detailed coordination of supply, return, and exhaust ductwork across a complex, multi-zone floor plate. The project demanded precise routing of duct mains, branches, and associated mechanical equipment within tight ceiling plenum conditions shared by multiple building systems.
Our team developed a fully coordinated HVAC Revit model, working alongside the broader mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection trades to resolve conflicts and optimize system layouts prior to installation. The model provided the project team with a clear, accurate picture of the HVAC infrastructure, reducing field issues and supporting a more efficient construction process from rough-in through final commissioning.
PROJECT MODELING: PLUMBING SUPPORT
Read | Thomas was engaged to provide plumbing modeling support for a large commercial facility with a dense overhead utility environment requiring careful coordination across multiple building systems. The project involved domestic water, sanitary, and storm piping routed through congested ceiling spaces shared with HVAC ductwork, fire protection mains, and electrical conduit.
Our team developed a detailed Revit plumbing model coordinated against all major building systems, identifying and resolving conflicts before they reached the field. The resulting model gave the plumbing contractor a precise, installation-ready reference that reduced RFIs, supported accurate prefabrication, and kept the project on schedule through a complex multi-trade coordination process.
PROJECT MODELING: ELECTRICAL SUPPORT
Read | Thomas was engaged to provide electrical modeling support for a commercial facility requiring detailed coordination of conduit, cable tray, and electrical distribution systems through a highly congested ceiling environment. The image highlights an active clash between electrical conduit and an adjacent building system — precisely the type of conflict our team is engaged to identify and resolve before it impacts the field.
Our team developed a comprehensive Revit electrical model coordinated against the full suite of MEPF systems, using clash detection workflows to flag and resolve conflicts early in the construction process. The resulting model gave the electrical contractor a clear, coordinated installation path that minimized field changes, reduced RFIs, and supported a more predictable and efficient construction schedule.
