GratingBIM Modeling
IKG uses GratingBIM™, a proprietary building information modeling software, to model grating in 3D. GratingBIM’s tools assist in the detection of clashes and aid in identifying grating support issues during early stages of the design.
Level of Detail
GratingBIM represents actual grating pieces (bearing bars and cross rods) including banding, toe plate, nosing, penetrations, stair treads and fasteners in true-to-scale size as part of the construction plan. Providing a level of detail not found in other programs, GratingBIM software for construction visually compares the placement of each grating accessory to identify and correct grating support issues.

Clash Finder
In conjunction with the structural steel model, the clash finder tool streamlines the model process. Real-scale components are represented in the model to identify and correct grating clash automatically prior to fabrication. The slides shown here represent a number of issues that were identified during the modeling process.
