Virtual Pre-Inspections with Local Authorities

Episode 152,   Jul 18, 2019, 06:00 AM

Derek Zero, a Virtual Design & Construction Engineer at Turner Construction, joins us on this episode 152 of Art of Construction. 
 
This episode rounds out our Digital Built Week pre-shows as the conference is currently underway in Seattle! In this conversation we discussed yet another aspect of the benefits of new construction technology: coordinating with local authorities and municipalities for inspections. With virtual reality and building information modeling, the process of getting approval from fire chiefs, health inspectors and other city officials can now take place well before the actual construction begins.
 
It might not be easy convincing everyone that this is a better way to do things; but as Derek Zero describes, it is worth it. Join us as we go on a journey with Derek, learning all about how virtual reality pre-inspections save time and money and help cultivate real and lasting relationships with city authorities that are sure to guarantee more business down the road.
