Success Story

Façade Design and Fabrication Training and Consulting

Façade Design and Fabrication Training and Consulting

Customer challenge

Nawakij Aluminum and Glass (2009) Co., Ltd. wanted to use Autodesk Inventor during the fabrication phase as a time savings for creating correctly designed 3D panel Assembly, BOM and shop drawings. Challenges for panel design to fabrication include: 1) During fabrication phase, panels often don’t fit on site, 2) Materials can’t handle design planar deviations, and 3) Customers want to avoid custom fabrication

Project goals

Priority project goals were identified as follows: 1) The customer can create 3D panel assembly models including BOM and Shop Drawing by Autodesk Inventor 2) Handle non-planar (2 or 3 Dimension) panels 3) Save time by 30% in 3D panel assembly modeling

Solution

1) Training was provided for Autodesk Inventor, including fundamental courseware (essential skills about 3D parametric design, documentation and annotation, advanced technique as multi-body modeling, top-down design, Sheet Metal design and nesting). 2) Façade (Glazing and Cladding) design and fabrication drawing courseware, using Autodesk Inventor to create die (aluminum profile) as mullion, transom, head, sill and cladding, create panel assembly and fabrication shop drawing. 3) Consulting provided to help apply the new solutions and processes with customer's projects and by working directly with customer.

Business outcome

Malee Facade Engineering Service Company Limited can now design Autodesk 3D panel assembly and cladding models, multi-planar panel (2- or 3-Dimension panels), make correct BOM (bill of materials), assembly panel and shop drawings, and save design and fabrication process time by at least 20%.

Conclusion

1) Save time by at least 20% during the design and fabrication phase. 2) Clear presentations and an easier to modify façade system with 3D modeling capability. 3) Able to design and create fabrication drawings for difficult façade systems.
