Our Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) course is designed to provide construction professionals with a comprehensive understanding of VDC principles, methodologies, and cutting-edge technologies. This course explores how VDC integrates digital tools and collaborative workflows to enhance project planning, coordination, and execution, ultimately improving efficiency and reducing risks in construction projects.
Participants will gain valuable insights into the relationship between VDC and Building Information Modeling (BIM), learning how these methodologies drive better collaboration and communication among stakeholders. The program covers essential VDC tools, including Navisworks, Synchro, and Revit, and demonstrates their practical applications in model-based estimation, scheduling, and clash detection.
Through a dynamic learning experience that blends theoretical knowledge with practical applications, participants will engage in hands-on exercises, real-world case studies, and interactive discussions. This approach ensures they develop the necessary skills to effectively implement VDC strategies in their projects.
