Problem:
For structural concrete, any error outside of construction tolerances requires an engineering redesign and often involves costly and timely remedial works:

Breaking, cutting, drilling concrete
Reordering structural reinforcement and concrete
Recasting the concrete and allowing for curing times

Scope of Works:
The Main Contractor partnered with XYZ Reality prior to breaking ground, for the construction of their concrete foundations to ensure that they are built correctly (+/- 5mm) and ready for the structural steel columns:

Incorporating The Atom into the project’s Inspection, Testing and Planning process
Inspecting the structures at the lowest value stage - during the setting-out and during the installation of the reinforcement, embedded elements (including holding-down bolts) and formwork

Results:
In all areas where The Atom was deployed, any errors or issues were detected prior to the concrete pour and the concrete foundations were installed within tolerances and without defects.

For the one location where The Atom could not be deployed, the concrete foundation was built 500mm out of tolerance.

However, using The Atom’s real-time validation, this issue was raised immediately and prior to any ground infill and the steel column installation

Designers at TVS used FenestraPro to locate and define the density of  shading and glazing frit patterns for  the optimal distribution of shading 
values required by the building code.  While collaborating with engineers in  the CD stage of the project, tvsdesign utilized FenestraPro to determine 
how frit patterns and glazing types would impact the overall energy performance of the building while still meeting code compliance. Read more on the case study here: https://www.fenestrapro.com/case-studies/tvs-case-study-identify-frit-patterns/.

This project addresses the rapidly evolving needs of the city’s most innovative commercial tenants and the future of work by repositioning all of the building’s public spaces. Boldly current and reflective of complex fabrication techniques, the spaces are now centered on the human experience and are ready to support the city’s meteoric growth as a high-tech hub.

The design elements directly reference motifs found in and around Seattle, from wood ceilings that emulate the motion of wind and waves to a fractal travertine wall inspired by the region’s tectonic activity. They all work in harmony to shape a series of calming spaces for tenants and visitors to work, recharge, and connect.

Advanced technologies, such as VR modeling, were at the core of a design process through which the team developed a highly tactile and emotional experience for the spaces. The fractal wall was computationally designed and engineered, and each of the 1,400 stone pieces used in its construction was optimized.

TAISEI decided to deploy a paperless process with DWG files centralized in the cloud, using Microsoft OneDrive for Business. This enables real-time synchronization of DWG files between the design teams, who produce the DWG drawings using ARES Commander, and the construction workers, who view the drawings on iPads. But the next challenge was to deploy a Mobile CAD solution on more than 4,000 iPads to enable the construction workers to read, annotate, and eventually modify these drawings on site.
