Challenges & Solutions of the Apartment Project

Challenge

  • Missing information and discrepancies in structural and architectural drawings
  • Challenging input drawings despite the small project volume
  • Stair soffit and plan drawings presented additional challenges

Solution

Pinnacle reviewed the drawings of the residential apartment project and overlaid every new drawing with previous versions to ensure nothing was missed while preparing shop drawings. With high-end expertise in BIM services for concrete contractors, the team completed the work within the stipulated timeframe through additional effort. Stair-related issues were resolved by keeping the client closely involved in project communication.

Pinnacle's Value Addition

During the project execution stage, Pinnacle raised a number of RFIs regarding missing information and discrepancies in structural and architectural aspects. The client/designer changed their drawings based on the issues raised.
