Today's construction industry is undergoing a dynamic transformation, and one of the key drivers of this change is design using digital tools. These technologies allow the creation of three-dimensional building models that map all the parameters of a future physical object. 3D design not only streamlines the creation and implementation of a project, but also the management of the entire life cycle of a facility. Moreover, the benefits of digitization are appreciated by every participant in the construction process - from engineers to future users.

Communication without barriers

One of the main benefits of digitization is the improved flow of information between all parties in the project process. LLENTAB has successfully used architectural 3D models and realistic visualizations and animations to facilitate communication with investors. Films and virtual walk-throughs of the facility allow to better understand the scale of the investment and see its details.

As Piotr Adel, head of the Design Department at LLENTAB, points out, "We cannot expect every investor to have a spatial imagination. That's why we provide information in the most accessible form possible."

From idea to implementation: the comprehensive nature of cooperation with clients

LLENTAB accompanies the investor at every stage of the hall construction process. It starts with discussions with the client, during which all the key requirements are gathered. Then it gradually moves through the stages such as comprehensive design and production of components, until the final construction.

comprehensive 3D design

The 3D model forms the basis for the subsequent parts of the process. It allows the developer to better understand the proposed solutions and detect potential problems more quickly, making it possible to correct them early. Among other things, the model takes into account the area and surroundings of the hall, the arrangement of columns, the location of windows, skylights or the positioning of racks.

The software used by LLENTAB offers functions such as sunlight analysis, which allows for optimal matching of natural lighting to planned facility functions. This tool becomes particularly important when planning photovoltaic installations, where the illumination of the roof throughout the year is analyzed. This allows precise placement of panels, resulting in maximum efficiency.

In addition, the initial 3D model also takes into account the ergonomics of the workspace. Designers analyze how the location of structural elements affects the daily use of the hall, optimizing its layout for work comfort and operational efficiency.

Generative design and optimization

Digital technologies also enable the use of generative design, which is the automatic creation of different variants of solutions based on defined criteria. At LLENTAB, this technology is used, for example, to optimize the placement of racks in warehouse halls. The designer and the investor choose the best solution from among the generated options, which allows the hall space to be customized.

In addition, the model can be enriched with a digital description of the terrain, which makes it possible to evaluate the ground masses and determine the most favorable level zero of the building. In this way, the costs of land leveling and foundation preparation are minimized.

Time efficiency and project quality: realization in line with the idea

At LLENTAB, every project goes through all stages - from ideation to implementation - in a smooth and organized manner. Digital project tools have contributed to a significant reduction in the time it takes to finalize projects. Only two weeks pass from the moment the contract is signed to obtaining the documentation needed for a building permit. After several days, the investor receives a description, drawings and static calculations. The detail of the model makes it possible to determine the occurrence of possible collisions and even the number of holes in the connections between elements.

Also the execution documentation is created using dedicated applications, which guarantees full control over the construction process. Each construction element is described in detail and numbered, which improves the management of production, transportation and assembly. Digitized data is stored in the company's archives, which facilitates future expansion or adaptation of the facility.

Advantage in investment management

With a precisely developed design model, investors can better control the entire construction process. Any change made to the model is immediately incorporated into the documentation, eliminating errors and misunderstandings on the construction site. In addition, the digital approach makes it easier to predict costs and optimize the budget at an early stage of the investment.

Cross-industry collaboration

Although digital design is becoming more common, it still poses challenges for interprofessional collaboration. Many professionals still design in 2D, which can complicate the creation of compatible multi-discipline models. LLENTAB tackles this with tools that enable integration of 2D drawings with 3D models, allowing for effective coordination and detection of potential collisions.

Summary

Digitization of the design process brings numerous benefits. Improved communication, faster preparation of documentation and the ability to optimize solutions on an ongoing basis make digital design an indispensable part of modern construction. LLENTAB's comprehensive "From Idea to Realization" approach ensures investors a smooth and efficient investment process, making it an expert in the steel hall design and construction industry.
