ISC uses BIM (Building Information Modeling) technology to virtually design and build multifamily wood framed structures and foundations. Integrated Structural Concepts (ISC) combines technology and collaboration to provide a seamless design-BIM-build structural solution for multifamily wood framed projects. At ISC we start with structural engineering, designing all aspects of the project from the pre-engineered metal plated roof trusses to post tension monolithic foundations.
We incorporate ideas from our team of field construction experts to be implemented in the construction documents. First, we build the structure virtually in a 3-D BIM model where we can analyze each structural system and component. Then we build it again, on the job site, using all the information gained throughout the design and BIM process. Integrated, seamless, efficient.
High quality meets never before seen production rates.

In the beginning there is only dirt.
That's where we start.
A good geotechnical report that has all the information we need to do it right.
After a thorough geotechnical review, we start the design process where we tear each unit apart and transform the architect's vision into a real buildable set of drawings, using framed wall dimensions.
By framing the units first, as a framer, we see the need for small dimensional changes such as moving walls for tub clearances and door and casing interferences.

A fully coordinated set of plans and specs is a rare occurrence.
The construction industry has been the slowest to show progress through advanced efficiencies in the country.
The waste experienced through plans that have not been fully value engineered have additional cost not only associated with materials and labor, but also through the RFI process, change orders, added purchase orders and construction delays.
The amount of exposure to owner, developer and stake holders can be enormous.
Integrated Structural Concepts brings a unique collaborative process to the wood framed construction industry.

A good structural design is the starting point for any construction project.
By assuming responsibility for all structural parameters, including post-tension foundation designs, floor and roof trusses and detailed/dimensioned framing plans, the ISC team provides unequaled quality in 2-D and 3-D structural designs.
We use a state of the art BIM structural design process that allows us to design each foundation, each wall panel, every stud and truss, in every building.
Others say they can do it, we'd like to see them try.

Architectural designs have become more complicated in order to meet the needs of design review committees and attract today's buyer and renter.
These highly technical designs and details require a massive amount of time and energy to develop a complete materials list and labor analysis.
BIM technology has changed the way material estimates can be generated.
By having a system in place from the beginning of the structural design that categorizes each piece of material by class and usage, material data can be easily extracted, condensed and priced in a comprehensive list.

By integrating foundation design, layout and installation into our scope, all foundations are exactly married to framing plans and truss layouts.
Dimensions are added to forming plans, post tension cable layouts are coordinated with shearwall placement and plumbing penetrations.
ISC uses the data from the structural design, including BIM models, to export into a Trimble software program where we establish all critical path "points".
These points are downloaded into a handheld LM80 layout manager to be used with our Trimble Robotic Total Stations.
