Brock's 3D scaffold model replaced 1,400+ standby hours with <25

Brock's 3D scaffold model replaced 1,400+ standby hours with <25

Brock Group executives Enrique Zavala and Brent Roscoe argue scaffolding belongs in the BIM model from the start of an industrial project. BIC Magazine reports one Brock 3D model replaced more than 1,400 budgeted standby hours with under 25 hours of rework. Peer-reviewed studies support BIM-based planning and forecasting, while noting scaffold modeling and laser scanning still demand specialized skills.

  • 01On one three-month project, BIC Magazine reports, a Brock 3D scaffold model left one minor field change and under 25 labor hours of rework against more than 1,400 budgeted standby hours.
  • 02A 2017 IAARC paper found scaffolding is usually left out of the BIM model, and a June 2024 MDPI case study found scan-to-BIM needs specialized equipment and skills, so the gains are not automatic.

CivDot robots shift surveyors to control and spot checks

On robotic layout jobs, the surveyor's work shifts to setting control and spot-checking the machine's marks.

  • 01On robotic layout jobs, the surveyor keeps the control network and the spot checks, the two tasks that decide whether thousands of machine-set marks are right.
  • 02Autonomy is most advanced offshore and underground, where work is risky and costly; routine low-risk jobs are adopting it more slowly.
