We plan.
Digital and networked.
We have been using digital possibilities for our work since the office was founded. We have been using BIM (Building Information Modeling) in planning since the very beginning. BIM is already a prerequisite in many tenders and projects today. For good reason, as data-oriented planning offers valuable advantages in all project phases and for subsequent facility management.
Interactive and interdisciplinary planning significantly simplifies the flow of information, project coordination and scheduling. The dynamic mapping of materials, resources and plans ensures transparency. Throughout the entire planning process and the subsequent execution phase. BIM thus creates a common working basis for all project participants via parametric networking and ensures agility from the design to the finished building. Our experience from many successful BIM projects shows great potential for future-oriented construction.
In the BIM expert group at MVD, we work on the further development of the BIM methodology in workshops and through regular exchanges.
One system. With many advantages.
With digital planning, all project partners always have the latest data at their fingertips. Coordination processes then take place on the right basis and it is possible to react very quickly. To this end, we support digital planning in close and interactive cooperation with all those involved in planning and execution.


Planning and building with BIM - The building blocks.
The parameterized recording of all components in a three-dimensional building model by the planning architects and engineers creates the basis for the BIM methodology. To this end, the level of detail, the "depth of planning" and the scope of the assigned parameters and data are defined in advance. In structural design, for example, these are the material properties of concrete and structural steel or sustainability parameters.
A program-controlled collision check can be carried out by superimposing the model components from architecture, supporting structure and building technology. This means that interface problems are solved on the computer rather than on the construction site.
The two-dimensional execution plans, which are currently used on construction sites, are generated from the three-dimensional building model. For this purpose, the parameters are set so that a traditional and standard-compliant representation is generated in floor plans and sections. In the future, digital building models will also be increasingly used on construction sites.
Each component is assigned characteristic values and information on materials, dimensions, costs and deadlines. The result is a digital and visual building database. The dimensions and costs can be determined at any time in "real time" - from the initial cost estimate to invoicing on the construction site. Planning and construction deadlines can be developed and visualized on the basis of the three-dimensional planning. Critical construction conditions can be analyzed, avoided or mitigated as early as the planning phase. The interfaces between the individual trades are easier to plan and can be optimized more quickly.
When complex issues need to be decided, they can be visualized from the building model and presented as alternatives. Associated mass extracts, construction costs and scheduling effects are assigned by the program.
The three-dimensional building model contains all of the building's important data. During subsequent operation, it can be used by facility management as a comprehensive database and as a basis for the future development of the building.
Innovative load-bearing structures. Digitally calculated and planned with BIM.
At MVD, we use the digital possibilities and interfaces between structural analysis and BIM-based planning from the initial idea through to implementation on the construction site. Three-dimensional finite element models for the structural analysis are generated and derived from the three-dimensional BIM models of the structure. This creates synergies in structural planning by statically optimizing basic components/structures at an early stage. Digital form-finding methods and parameterized geometry models are used for complex and filigree structures.
