Clash Detection Services
Specialised clash detection services to identify conflicts between architectural, structural, and MEP models before construction begins.
We support contractors, consultants, and owners across Texas and the USA with clear clash reports, dashboards, and model checks that reduce rework and speed up decisions.
Scope of Our
Clash Detection Services
Model Aggregation and Setup
We bring together architectural, structural, and MEP models into a federated model, align coordinates and grids, and prepare views and sets for clash testing as per your scope.
Hard and Soft Clash Detection
We run hard and soft clash tests using tools like Navisworks, Revit, and Revizto, checking intersections, clearances, and overlaps between building systems.
Rules and Tolerance Settings
We define clash rules and tolerances that reflect your project standards, so reports focus on meaningful issues instead of noise and minor overlaps.
Clash Grouping, Classification, and Prioritisation
We group clashes by trade, system, location, and severity, helping teams see which issues are critical, which can wait, and who needs to act.
Clash Reports and Dashboards
We provide clash reports, screenshots, and dashboards that show open clashes, resolved clashes, and overall progress over time for review meetings.
Design Review Support
We support design and coordination meetings by walking teams through the clash views, answering questions, and updating reports after each review.
Deliverables
- Federated model prepared for clash testing
- Clash test sets and saved views
- Clash reports with issue lists and descriptions
- Screenshots and viewpoint links for each clash group
- Dashboards showing counts, status, and trends
- Files in RVT, NWD, NWC, IFC, PDF, Excel as per scope
Each deliverable supports early issue detection, structured reviews, and faster resolution with less back and forth.
What Clash Detection Helps You Achieve
- See interference between systems before construction begins
- Improve coordination between architecture, structure, and MEP
- Reduce RFIs, change orders, and rework on site
- Give teams a shared, visual list of issues to resolve
- Build a safer and more predictable construction sequence

FAQs for Clash Detection Services
We typically work with Revit models, Navisworks files, IFC files, or a mix of these formats, along with a clear scope of which trades to include.
Yes. We can combine RVT, NWD, NWC, and IFC files into a federated model for clash testing.
Clash detection focuses on identifying and reporting clashes. If you also need model updates and design changes, that is covered under BIM coordination services as a separate scope.
For active projects, it is usually run at key milestones or at a regular interval such as weekly or biweekly, depending on model updates.
We mainly use Autodesk Navisworks, Revit, and Revizto, plus Excel and PDF for reports and dashboards.
We share clash reports, screenshots, dashboards, and viewpoint files, and can join review meetings to walk teams through the results if required.
