Virtual Design and Construction (VDC)

Morley has been a recognized industry leader in the development of virtual design and construction models and technologies. These powerful tools bring significant benefits to a project including: early recognition of conflicts and constructability issues and an increase in document coordination and communication with the project team through a 3D environment. Additionally, a 4D phasing and schedule analysis adds value to the project planning phase, while a fifth dimension (5D) focuses on the estimated overall cost of a project.

By employing a virtual approach, Morley is able to explore many aspects of the project from the earliest planning phases to the final day of building, leading to a more efficient, less costly and higher quality construction process.

Benefits of Virtual Design and Construction

• Visualization of a complete project model
• Rapid implementation of design revisions
• Recognition of design and tradework conflicts
• Generation of quantity take-offs and cost estimates
• Exploration and optimization of project schedules
• Generation of plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules and reports
• Delineation of subcontractor trade work
