Virtual Design & Construction (VDC)

Advancing the Art of Building with Technology

At Granger Construction, our in-house Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) team has a strong history of leveraging technology to improve communication, collaboration, quality and efficiency across the project lifecycle for work we manage and subcontract. Beginning in the early 2000s, Granger utilized Building Information Modeling (BIM) for clash coordination of above ceiling trades. Today, our VDC experts leverage a wide array of proven and cutting-edge technology including 3D Coordination, 4D Scheduling, Drone Visual Capture, Augmented Reality, Thermal Inspection, Topographic Mapping and more to enhance the customer experience.

Adding Value with VDC

Building Information Modeling (BIM)

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a powerful communication tool for enhancing collaboration and transparency between owners, architects, engineers, project teams and subcontractors. Not only can BIM be utilized for clash detection and trade coordination, but owners and facilities managers across industries can also find value in mitigating safety risks, planning service clearances and documenting as-builts.

3D Modeling Services

Granger VDC provides in-house modeling services for mechanical and electrical systems. Our team excels in drafting prefabricated systems. They handle diverse projects, from complex healthcare and industrial to commercial office spaces and K-12 schools, ensuring top-quality delivery regardless of project size or complexity.

Extended Reality (XR)

We offer Extended Reality services (XR) including Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR). This technology enables project teams, Owners and end users to visualize spaces through virtual mock-ups, enabling them to impact design decisions before physical construction.
