ConstructorCast: Using Virtual Design To Build Better

In this episode of AGC’s ConstructorCast, we talk with virtual design and construction (VDC) leaders from Barton Malow Company(www.bartonmalow.com), Matt Hedke and Alan Todd, about the benefits of VDC, technology selection and how to ensure successful companywide integration. Barton Malow defines VDC as the application of BIM and related technology throughout the project lifecycle (pursuit to closeout) to improve overall project performance. Barton Malow shares how it picks the right tools -- and how it uses technology to continually improve safety, quality and productivity during construction. Listen and learn how the company’s VDC team partners with project delivery teams, including design and trade partners, to ensure they are trained to use the technologies that can best help them plan and execute the work on their projects.
