3D modeling & BIM

Use Trimble's 3D modeling solutions to create precise 3D models that put BIM into production and eliminate waste. You can automate design and detailing processes, transfer design attributes seamlessly, and more.

Better data, better results

Work with construction-ready 3D models to drive efficiency, better decision-making, and cost savings at every stage of your project—from initial design stages to construction and operation.

Achieve dynamic workflows

Keep design and construction in perfect sync with 3D modeling and BIM solutions for construction and infrastructure.

Higher levels of collaboration and communication

Review building data, detect clashes, drive efficiency in model-based workflows, and present the final design to clients.

Reduce mistakes and environmental impact

Creating detailed data with Trimble solutions helps engineers assess designs for carbon impact early in the design phase.

Coordinate better throughout the supply chain

Use Trimble's 3D modeling software to trigger model-based workflows that reduce rework across a wide variety of areas.

Consolidate and scale digital project delivery

Set your projects up for success with 3D models detailed enough to serve as the foundation for onsite automation, tracking, and alignment.

Fix problems in the office instead of the field

Use your 3D model to minimize working blind and uncover challenges before construction even begins for better communication and design clarification.

Control costs and work more efficiently

Use Trimble 3D modeling solutions to create a higher-quality model that improves worksite efficiency, reduces waste and costs, and more.
