F.Domes’ tents are complex products with multiple configurable features. Potential customers have difficulties understanding the different accessories and characteristics simply by scrolling through different images on F.Domes website. They wanted to find a way to educate their potential customers on how the product works and on its specific characteristics to improve the quality of leads.

F.Domes wanted to increase the number of monthly leads, reduce the time spent on inquiries and shorten the sales cycle

The Sales team had to answer potential leads’ numerous basic questions about the product. They also had to quote each lead separately. F.Domes wanted to reduce the time spent on answering basic questions, explaining the different possible combinations and quoting each lead separately.

The solution: a 3D configurator: Klaas Nienhuis together with Frodo Schering (design and main contractor) and Innouveau (web development) built a 3D configurator for F.Domes using Sketchfab API.

MassMotion analysed a range of entry and exit scenarios at Stockton’s Grade II Listed Globe Theatre, due to reopen in September 2021 after a £20m+ refurbishment,  to ensure good crowd management on the public highway.

Consultants integrated the theatre’s Revit model with the Stockton town centre 3D model to produce comprehensive visualisations and analyses. Now the model has been developed in MassMotion, it can also be used assess customer experience for different events, to address security and social distancing concerns and to optimise use of bars and other facilities.

One of the major benefits of the platform is the ability for team members to view their project data virtually, without needing to do a site visit. Being able to look around their build, take measurements and gain a true understanding of what’s there has provided significant time and cost savings for the business.

“Cintoo Cloud has become a key part of our Reality Capture workflows. I’m able to share project data with both internal and external team members and people are interacting with the data all the time. It’s really easy to add someone in and it only takes about 10 minutes to show them how to use it and they’re off,” says Michael Alder, Regional Reality Capture Leader.

“One of the biggest benefits is that it enables us to get our clients more involved in the process. By giving them access to this information, they can walk through the building and immediately understand the scope of the project and what’s being done. This transparency and collaboration increase the value of what we’re doing across all disciplines.”

COBOD

In July 2020, KampC unveiled the first two story house printed on site in Europe. The house is eight meters tall and has a floor area of 90 square meters and it is printed with Europe’s largest 3d concrete printer made by COBOD. You can find Flanders’ first 3D-printed model home on the premises of Kamp C in Westerlo, Belgium.

“What makes this house so unique, is that we printed it with a fixed 3D concrete printer”, says Emiel Ascione, the project manager at Kamp C. “Other houses that were printed around the world only have one floor. In many cases, the components were printed in a factory and were assembled on-site. We, however, printed the entire building envelope in one piece on-site.”

KampC: First two story building printed on site in Europe with BOD2

The BOD is a small 3D printed office hotel of less than 50 square meters located in Copenhagen’s Nordhavn.

The goal of this project was to demonstrate how 3D printing technology could be applied in the traditional construction industry in Europe. The idea for the project came from our participation in the Danish government-funded project “3D Construction Printing”, during which we visited more than 35 3D construction printing projects worldwide. We realized that Europe was falling behind, and we took on the challenge to be the first in Europe to 3D print a building fulfilling the strict building codes of Europe.

A Custom Revit Add-in to automate the blockwork. It automatically converts walls to bricks. 
Tecomat’s main objective is to remain competitive by optimizing its internal design processes while delivering the best and quickest results to its clients.

After analyzing their Mansory design process, specifically the blockwork modeling in Revit, they concluded that placing brick by brick and fit them in the walls is a super inefficient and error-prone task that must be fully automated.

Reduction of production costs, increased efficiency, and quality gains were the objectives that led them to look for a bespoke solution.

With over 10.000 kg of metal 3D printed objects and over 40 man-years of experience since 2014, MX3D is the company that brought large-scale robotic wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) and its market to life and made enabling 3D metal printing more flexible, faster and cheaper.

Now, MX3D is ready to transform the market further by launching the first dedicated robotic WAAM software enabling companies, engineers and designers to print end-to-end large-scale 3D metal objects in-house.

MX3D became immediate innovation leader in 3D metal printing by presenting its jaw-dropping 12 meter long fully functional 3D printed stainless steel pedestrian bridge which will soon be installed in the heart of Amsterdam.

Passion Behind Design: Pushing the Design Envelope

Populous

Allianz Field is the permanent soccer-specific stadium home to Minnesota United FC. The iconic feature of Allianz Field is the dynamic skin which wraps around the stadium. To integrate geometric control and PTFE fabric analysis, Walter P Moore created a digital workflow in collaboration with Populous as the architect. This enabled Walter P Moore to rapidly analyze the PTFE skin, adjust the driver pipe spacing so the PTFE wasn't overstressed, and then for the architect to take the new geometry and adjust it as desired for architectural form, which Walter P Moore could then re-analyze. Ultimately, the digitally controlled geometry model of the driver pipes was delivered to the steel fabricator to facilitate production of the HSS pipes.

Skender

Skender is drawing up plans to manufacture and build the modular units for a 10-story, 144-unit multifamily building in Uptown Chicago and a 7-story, 122-unit multifamily building in West Loop. “We know we’ll get this done 40 percent faster than anyone else and at a higher standard,” said Skender Chief Design Officer Tim Swanson.

Stacy Scopano, Skenders new Chief Technology Officer – “I haven’t seen a lot of virtual reality experiences that didn’t include some awkward disconnect between “presenter” and “audience.”  The Magic Leap device eliminates isolating a team member’s in their own virtual environments and allows for a much more natural augmented collaboration, which is the original intent of mixing realities in Real Estate & AEC.”

VIM will be collaborating with Skender on real-time augmented experiences for the modular units. VIM's Augmented Reality application powered by Magic Leap will augment the physical space to help people experience what the finished product will represent when completed.
