Revit Model Coordination & Clash Management
Coordinate multi-discipline Revit models, detect clashes, document conflicts systematically
What You Can Do
You can organize linked Revit models from multiple disciplines, identify and document spatial clashes with location and severity ratings, assign responsibility to teams, track remediation status through resolution, and produce stakeholder-ready coordination reports. This workflow prevents RFIs, reduces field conflicts, and maintains project schedule integrity by establishing a repeatable framework for interdisciplinary model management.
Features
import and structure architectural, structural, MEP, and specialty discipline models with clear naming conventions and visibility controls
systematically identify spatial conflicts by discipline pair (Arch-Struct, Arch-MEP, Struct-MEP) with documented methodology
record each clash with location coordinates, severity rating (critical/major/minor), responsible party assignment, and photographic evidence
maintain status workflow from identified → assigned → in-progress → resolved → verified with date stamps and owner accountability
generate discipline-specific and comprehensive reports with clash summaries, trend analysis, and action item lists for design team meetings
document coordination session decisions, clash resolutions, and design directive assignments for audit trail and change order support
standardize clash severity based on trade impact, code implications, and constructability risk
integrate coordination requirements into project BIM plan with roles, responsibilities, and clash review schedules
Example Output
Clash Report Summary (MEP-Structural Coordination Meeting)
| Clash ID | Location | Conflict | Severity | Assigned To | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CLH-001 | Level 3, Grid C-5 | 12" HVAC duct crosses structural beam | Major | MEP Lead | In Progress |
| CLH-002 | Level 2, West Core | 4" return line conflicts with rebar | Critical | Structural Eng | Resolved |
| CLH-003 | Basement, East Wall | Conduit routing blocked by foundation wall | Minor | Electrical | Verified |
Meeting Decision Log
- CLH-001: Reroute ductwork south 2 feet (MEP to model by 12/15)
- CLH-002: Lower beam 6 inches (Structural to coordinate with Arch)
- CLH-003: Use surface-mounted conduit per Code Section 300.4
