Virtual Build Team
The AEC industry traditionally relies on the use of two-dimensional drafting and written specifications to define a
project's design. At best, traditional methods provide an incomplete picture of a project and do nothing to rectify the
errors and omissions of the entire design team. Many aspects remain undefined, uncoordinated and are left
unresolved until construction is underway. This results in a large number of Requests For Information and Change
Orders, a common problem that increases the project budget and time line, often adding ten percent or more to the
final project cost. More recently, our industry has begun to embrace emerging technologies that leverage buzzwords
such as BIM (Building Information Model) and legacy two-dimensional cad systems. While these are improvements,
they are only improving old process. Old processes, even when improved by BIM, can only take a project part of the
way.
These problems can be avoided when collaborating with Virtual Build Team services.
Virtual Build Team knows through direct experience that defining a project in three or more dimensions just makes
good sense. Working closely with all the members of the project team, Virtual Build Team works with your existing
design-intent data, compiling a precise three-dimensional Virtual Build model and transforming it to a builder's
model. We then help you maintain this powerful tool, enabling you to confidently coordinate and control the entire
process, from design to fabrication to construction management, and reducing your risks along the way.

Virtual Build Team, formerly C-cubed Virtual Architecture, has been working with three-dimensional computer
modeling for more than thirty years and has effectively applied its Virtual Build process to world class architectural
projects across the globe. We introduced Frank Gehry to the technology and process long before BIM became a
popular buzzword. We are now excited to be able to offer our services to your important project.
