A
deeply immersive experience that allows architects, engineers and contractors
to explore, touch and annotate 3D BIM models as they ‘walk’ through
construction and civil engineering projects will be on display at next week’s Digital
Construction Week (DCW) at ExCeL, London.

3D
Repo, the pioneer of a cloud-based digital construction platform for design
collaboration in 3D BIM, has partnered with Mission Room to bring one of its
large touch-screen media displays to the show. This installation enables a
virtual walk-through of construction and infrastructure projects, giving
greater depth of understanding of the projects’ complexities, risks and
solutions.

Consisting
of three large screens and suspended projectors, Mission Room’s theatre-style
viewing system allows project managers to view their BIM models like never
before. Clients, contractors and designers can conduct detailed
cross-functional reviews of models from any location, and the software allows
them to annotate content and quickly share results across the business.

In
addition to demonstrating its multi award-winning BIM collaboration tools, 3D
Repo is offering visitors the opportunity to see a demo of their own 3D models
on the large screen at stand E22 at Digital Construction Week on 16-17 October.

Delegates
can email 3D Repo at marketing@3drepo.com
to request a secure link so they can upload their models prior to the event.

Dr
Jozef Dobos, founder and CEO of 3D Repo, says:

“Digital
Construction Week is all about exploring the potential of industrial
technologies to help create a better built environment, and we’re excited to
join the conversation, to discover new opportunities, and to showcase the
possibilities of our own digital platform.�

3D
Repo is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform for BIM coordination in the
cloud. Its platform allows users to manage 3D model revisions and to highlight
potential issues using live collaboration tools, which enable the whole project
team to work from a single source of truth anywhere and at any time.

Instead
of architects, engineers and contractors sharing massive proprietary files in a
costly and time-consuming manner, they can simply point their web browser to an
encrypted cloud platform in order to examine each project stage virtually.

The
3D Repo team has collaborated on a number of large-scale projects with
companies such as Atkins, Balfour Beatty, Bryden Wood, Buro
Happold, Canary Wharf Contractors and Crossrail among others.
