Virtual Design Construction (VDC) & Building Information Modeling (BIM)
VDC & BIM
At MetroAir, we use Virtual Design & Construction (VDC) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) to plan smarter, build more efficiently, and deliver the highest quality mechanical systems. By creating detailed digital models and leveraging advanced coordination tools, we visualize every component before it reaches the field—reducing rework, supporting prefabrication, and improving communication across all project partners. This integrated approach ensures our HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical piping installations are accurate, efficient, and executed with complete confidence from design through completion.
What We Do
At MetroAir, our VDC and BIM processes are engineered to deliver mechanical systems with unmatched accuracy and constructability. We develop detailed, data-rich models that incorporate HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical piping systems, complete with equipment clearances, hanger layouts, valve locations, and fabrication-level detailing. These models serve as the backbone of our coordination efforts, enabling clash detection across trades, validating installation paths, and informing schedule-driven sequencing. Through integrated VDC workflows, we generate shop drawings, spool packages, and prefabrication assemblies directly from the model, ensuring consistency from design intent to field installation. Our teams leverage open-protocol platforms, federated model reviews, and cloud-based collaboration tools to maintain alignment with project partners in real time. Combined with our 60,000-square-foot fabrication facility and deep field expertise, MetroAir’s VDC/BIM approach reduces rework, enhances safety, improves installation efficiency, and delivers mechanical systems that perform exactly as designed—without surprises.
