Facade BIM/VDC Services

We offer a comprehensive range of BIM services to the Architectural, Structural, MEP/HVAC & Façade domains for effective pre-construction planning

Facade BIM/VDC Services

Modern façade systems demand a high level of precision, coordination, and constructability that traditional 2D workflows are no longer equipped to handle. Complex geometries, tight tolerances, interface conditions, and performance requirements often lead to coordination gaps, fabrication discrepancies, and installation delays when not addressed early in the design process. Facade BIM and VDC services overcome these challenges by delivering intelligent, data-rich 3D models that enable accurate design validation, seamless coordination, and reliable construction outcomes.

Advenser provides comprehensive Facade BIM / VDC services for a wide range of building envelope systems, including curtain walls, unitized and stick façades, aluminum glazing systems, metal panels, cladding assemblies, skylights, canopies, and complex custom façade geometries. Using industry-standard tools such as Revit, Inventor, Advance Steel, Navisworks, and BIM 360, the façade BIM team supports architects, façade consultants, contractors, fabricators, and installers with coordinated models and fabrication-ready deliverables across Australia.

Façade detailing and 2D drafting services provide clear and precise drawings for approvals, coordination, and execution. Drawings include plans, sections, elevations, details, and interface drawings aligned with project standards and fabrication requirements.

Facade Shop Drawings

Facade Shop Drawings

Fabrication-ready façade shop drawings are prepared directly from coordinated BIM models. Deliverables include detailed drawings for frames, panels, brackets, glazing layouts, fixings, and anchorage systems to support accurate manufacturing and site installation.

Curtain Wall & Unitized System Detailing

Curtain Wall & Unitized System Detailing

Detailed BIM modelling and shop drawings are provided for curtain wall and unitized façade systems. Services cover panel layouts, mullions, transoms, joints, seals, brackets, and unit connections, ensuring performance, tolerance control, and installation accuracy.

facade shop front drawings

Shop Front Drawings

Shop front drawings are developed for commercial and retail façades, including glazing systems, aluminum frames, doors, and fittings. Drawings ensure precise coordination with structural openings and interior finishes.

Facade Profile Systems

Facade Profile Systems

Façade profile systems are modelled and detailed to support aluminum extrusions, framing profiles, and custom façade sections. Parametric profiles enable consistency across modules and efficient updates during design development.

Spider glazing support system icon

Spider Glazing Detailing

Specialized detailing is provided for spider glazing systems, including point-fixed glass panels, brackets, fittings, and support structures. Models and drawings ensure accurate load transfer, alignment, and installation clarity.

Skylight & Canopy Detailing

Skylight & Canopy Detailing

Skylight and canopy systems are modelled and detailed with a focus on geometry, drainage, fixings, and structural interfaces. BIM-based detailing supports fabrication accuracy and smooth on-site assembly.

ACP & Metal Cladding Detailing

ACP & Metal Cladding Detailing

ACP and metal cladding systems are modelled and detailed for panel layouts, fixing systems, sub-frames, joints, and tolerances. BIM-based detailing ensures consistent panelization and precise fabrication outputs.

As-Built Drawings

As-Built Drawings

As-built façade drawings are prepared to reflect final installed conditions. These drawings support project close-out, compliance documentation, facility management, and future renovation or retrofit works.

Scan to BIM for Facades

Scan to BIM for Facades

Scan to BIM services convert laser scan point cloud data into accurate as-built façade BIM models. This service supports refurbishment, recladding, remediation, and heritage projects by capturing real-world geometry and deviations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in your façade BIM services?

Our façade BIM services include 3D modelling of curtain walls, unitized systems, stick systems, cladding, louvers, skylights, and canopies. We also provide clash detection, fabrication drawings, panel schedules, custom Revit families, BOQs, performance-based modelling, and Scan to BIM for façade upgrades.

Can you work with our conceptual façade designs and convert them into BIM models?
Yes. We can develop accurate façade BIM models directly from architectural concepts, sketches, mark-ups, 2D drawings, or consultant design packages. Our team can also enhance the models with system details, anchors, extrusions, and performance requirements.
Do you follow Australian façade engineering standards and guidelines?
Absolutely. Our models and drawings follow NCC requirements, AS/NZS standards, and project-specific façade system guidelines. We also collaborate closely with façade engineers to ensure that all BIM outputs meet local compliance.
Can you coordinate facade models with structural and MEP elements?

Yes. We perform façade-to-structure and façade-to-MEP clash detection using Navisworks and BIM360. This ensures slab edges, beams, services, and brackets align properly before fabrication and installation begin.

Do you provide fabrication-ready façade shop drawings?
Yes. We prepare fabrication-ready shop drawings for curtain wall frames, panels, brackets, anchors, extrusion profiles, glazing layouts, and connection details. These are extracted from coordinated BIM models to maintain complete accuracy.
Can you model complex and curved façade geometries?
Yes. Our team is experienced with parametric façades, double-curved surfaces, sloped glazing, custom extrusions, and advanced geometries. We create detailed models that capture geometry, alignment, tolerances, and connection logic precisely.
What information do you need to start a façade BIM project?
Typically, we require architectural elevations, façade sections, extrusion details, performance specifications, system catalogues, structural interface details, and the BIM Execution Plan (BEP). If these documents are incomplete, our team can support collecting the necessary information.
Do you support façade panel scheduling and material take-offs?
Yes. We generate detailed panel schedules, glass take-offs, extrusion take-offs, hardware quantities, accessory lists, and BOQs directly from the BIM model to support procurement and production planning.
