VIRTUAL DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION (VD&C)

WHY VD&C

Burke’s internal Virtual Design and Construction (VD&C) team drives innovation across diverse market sectors with technical skills and curiosity. Throughout each construction stage, our VD&C team:

  • Engages in a collaborative process with architects and engineers during early project phases
  • Increases the power of information for an improved construction experience
  • Provides the project team with enhanced visibility and elevated understanding of project progress, site conditions, design visualization and trade coordination / logistics.

CLOSING THE EXPECTATION GAP

By staying up-to-date with new and emerging software, Burke ensures the client’s vision is sustained throughout the construction process.​ While 2-Dimensional drawings are essential, 3-Dimensional deliverables enhance the client’s ability to visualize and experience spaces, allowing them to verify that their vision is being accurately represented. Our VD&C and Operations teams work together to find solutions that:

  • Bridge the gap between the owner’s vision and the built product
  • Increase collaboration from the initial planning phase
  • Resolve conflicts before materials are fabricated and installed, mitigating potential issues before they impact the project budget or schedule

DRONES

Virtual Design & Construction (VD&C) 3

Burke’s internal drone program uses the latest technologies to capture real-time footage of construction sites, generating a greater sense of transparency with Owners throughout the VD&C process and providing unique perspectives of job sites. Burke Pilots are fully certified through the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and will collaborate with staff to create a project-specific flight schedule that fits the needs of the team and establishes a safe area for flight operations.

Benefits:
• Improved Visibility of Project Progress
• Safety Management
• Quantity Takeoffs

Services:
• 2D/3D Aerial Mapping
• 360º Panoramas of Site
• Site Photos and Videos

BIM COORDINATION

Virtual Design & Construction (VD&C) 7

BIM is the digital representation of physical and functional characteristics. Our VD&C team collaborates with architects and engineers to create a tailored BIM Execution Plan that improves decision-making throughout the project’s lifetime. Burke’s VD&C team conducts clash detections to identify and resolve geometric overlaps.

Benefits:
• Mechanical systems planned accurately prior to construction
• Minimizes unforeseen issues

Services:
• 3D Modeling
• BIM Execution Plan
• Design and Construction Model Coordination

4D SIMULATIONS

Virtual Design & Construction (VD&C) 8

VD&C’s goal is to fulfill the owner’s vision. To achieve this, we integrate 3D models with scheduled data to create visual simulations that bring the vision to life, ensuring proper execution.

Benefits:
• Allows the Operations team to fully understand the project vision
• Jump starts the collaborative spirit
• Assists in solving issues quickly and efficiently

Services:
• Site Logistics
• Phasing Visualization
• Construction Simulation
• Project Walkthrough
• Safety Planning
