M&D Drafting
3D BIM Services

Working with M&D Drafting Ltd will help keep your contract on schedule and within budget. The following points show the services we can provide partially or as a complete package. Utilizing all our services from the beginnings of a project can and will take your project from conceptual to reality, giving you the confidence you deserve from a professional company.

3D modeling with an industry recognized software:

With large teams that have expertise in these powerful tools, we can perform work on both large and fast tracked projects. We are trained for the latest software versions and features to harness the full benefits of these applications. Our rigorous quality and checking standards ensures that we adhere to design, codes and client standards.

Change and revision management:

We are very accomplished at keeping up to date models and model backups in order to ensure that designs changes are tracked. Our responsibilities include model updates that allow all disciplines to react and identify changes, track the changes and then ultimately provide the proper paper work to receive compensation for the changes. Our ability to staff projects appropriately allows us to deliver consistent, timely and accurate documentation that allows our clients to manage the changes easily, thus making the collection process much more manageable.

Design and GA drawings:

It is our experience that 3D BIM applications claim that GA and design drawings can be printed with the push of a button from the BIM model. The fact is that client presentation, standards etc require modifications, cleaning of drawings and other additional work to the 2D drawings. Our experience and knowledge in various disciplines enables us to build the 3D model, 2D drawings etc to suit all of our clients unique styles.

Construction model creation:

For 20 years now we have been producing structural steel fabrication drawings to the highest level of accuracy for a multitude of fabricators across North America. The result is more accurate 3D BIM model and one that does not require modifications when construction begins.

Pre construction services:

M&D Drafting can provide pre-construction services to our clients. we have teams that can enhance our clients ability to bid on projects as well as manage their projects. Instead of the old 2D drawing presentation, we can provide 3D models on the wall. A client can see how their building will look prior to actual 2D design.

Advanced/intelligent Structural modeling:

Due to our company dynamics we can offer expertise with your 3D BIM modeling. We have a complete structural department managed by highly skilled technicians whom work as teams building the models, integrating professional and contractors information into, and out from our models. Our technicians can also advise on structural design to save costs in the shop and field.

Clash and conflict detection:

Our structural technicians and engineers work together to identify clashes, conflicts and design problems. We also have certified Project Coordinators and Project Managers that deal with model issues and advise on practical and cost saving solutions, all contract issues and solutions are documented and tracked.

Construction documents:

Our staff can assist with the construction documents, from advising on structural codes relevant to building envelope location to the checking and coordination of trades. Our steel technicians can assist with standard detail drawing production for contract from industrial to commercial.

Estimation and quantity take-offs:

Our estimating department can break contracts down into various packages that will allow for the distribution of deliverables to areas of the industry that will deliver the product at the most economical cost based on their specialty. Quantity take off can be delivered accurately and with great speed through the 3D model. Out staff  have strong knowledge of current material availability and can advise on alternative material where it is obvious time and money will be saved without jeopardizing the original design or structures integrity.

Virtual Building Modeling/Virtual Construction:

Our offices are set up with the latest in server software and hardware. All information is passed between offices and customers through our fiber optic network. Clients, designers and trades can view the model at any time, as it is being built. Information can be extracted easily through a safe web based connection. We have the ability and willingness to work through multiuser networks and models to ensure no uncertainties exist between what is said and what actually exists in the model..
