Construction architecture

Today's architects use new construction technology to focus on what they do best: designing. By automating RFI responses and project communications, A&D professionals also reduce errors and simplify workflows.

Cutting-edge tools empower architects to deliver better designs

BIM collaboration, 3D modeling, design, project management, and digital twins—with the latest digital tools, architects and designers gain the time and accuracy to create better designs with fewer revisions.

Compelling design visuals showcase your expertise to future clients. Virtual mock-ups and 3D RFIs expertly communicate important details to the field.
Trimble tools organize data and handle stakeholder collaboration, so architects actually have time to take their designs to the next level.
Collaboration tools and joint project models get more eyes on the design. Each expert hones in on their specialty, reducing design flaws and saving project budgets.
Run full annual simulations powered by industry-accredited analysis engines, and get your building performance results in minutes instead of weeks.

Start architecting in new ways

Architects who utilize integrated BIM tools can improve the accuracy of their designs and ensure they meet the project owners’ specifications. These digital models provide an idea of what the project looks like in real space, ensuring the design actually works.

When data is centralized but made available for all stakeholders to access, collaboration and communication grow exponentially. Rather than sharing drawings through mail or making copies, everyone can work from the same documents or models—key to keeping everyone on the same page.

Architects can use 3D modeling and BIM tech to create simulations and predict building performance. Parameters can be digitally manipulated to test daylighting, thermal performance, airflow, energy consumption and other performance data before the project reaches completion.

Historical buildings need a special touch, but Trimble empowers architects to create digital twins and manipulate the building in digital space. This allows stakeholders to make better decisions before ever altering the historical building itself.

By utilizing modeling software, building performance can be predicted and manipulated based on design, materials chosen, equipment installed and other factors, providing a window into the building’s emissions long before occupancy.
