Wescan’s scope of work included all mechanical, electrical and structural systems. Although BIM was not a contractual requirement, Wescan endeavored to create a complete 3D model of the entire facility in order to coordinate and facilitate the installation of the mechanical electrical systems. This included pre-fabricating headwalls in cooperation with the steel stud trade, as well as shipping and installing over 1180 pre-fabricated ‘work packages’ based on modeled M&E systems.
