Industrial BIM validation
Industrial BIM validation for plants and factories
DeltaARBIM overlays your IFC model on the real plant, so you verify process piping, equipment, and structure against the design to within 2 cm, offline, before commissioning.
Plant piping and equipment, with no slack left at commissioning.
A plant packs process piping, mechanical runs, cable trays and heavy equipment onto precise foundations, often in a retrofit around production that cannot stop.
Process piping with no room to spare
Runs share a corridor with mechanical and containment. A line set a few centimetres out takes the space the next system needs.
Equipment on precise foundations
A base cast off the model is not adjustable later. The machine arrives expecting the position the drawing promised.
A retrofit around live production
The existing plant is not a drawing, and what is actually there rarely matches what the record says is there.
Found at commissioning
The schedule has no slack left by then, and the fix may mean a shutdown.
The frameworks a plant build is run to
Industrial work is governed less by one standard than by a sequence: model, build, verify, commission, hand over. Validation belongs in the gap most projects leave empty.
Industrial BIM validation, on the plant floor.
DeltaARBIM loads your IFC model, anchors it to the structure with LiDAR, and you walk the plant with each system on its own layer, drawn over the real build to within 2 cm.
Process systems, layer by layer
Piping, mechanical and electrical verified against the model one system at a time.
Equipment and foundations
Confirm positions before the next system goes in and the chance to move anything closes.
Works in restricted areas
Fully offline on the device, with no markers, so a live or restricted plant is not a blocker.
Trades on screen
Clash detected
Isolate piping, then mechanical, and read a dense corridor one system at a time. The same controls run on the floor, offline.
DeltaARBIM verifies structure, services, and dense MEP against the model to within 2 cm, offline, proven on real builds including two commercial complexes and a hospital. The same layer-by-layer, offline approach is what a plant retrofit or commissioning needs.

Industrial BIM validation finds it before commissioning, not during it.
A deviation caught on the walk is a quick fix. The same one found at commissioning, or in a running plant, can mean a shutdown, and downtime in a live facility is expensive (industry estimate). On-site BIM validation confirms the build matches the model while the fix is still cheap, and hands over an as-built record the operator can rely on.
See industrial BIM validation on your own plant model.
We will run a 30 minute walkthrough on an IFC model you provide, isolating piping or equipment as you need, so you can judge the 2 cm long before commissioning.
