Helm BIM

The development of Apple’s stunning new retail space at Miami Worldcenter was a project where innovation met precision, and we at Helm BIM were honored to play a pivotal role in its success. From the outset, we partnered with Gensler and Setty & Associates to conduct a BIM constructability analysis, ensuring the ambitious design was not only visionary but also practical, sustainable, and aligned with LEED energy-efficiency goals. Our expertise truly shined in the pre-construction phase, where we worked closely with subcontractors to transform complex designs into detailed, construction-ready plans. Leveraging advanced tools like 3D Laser Scanning, we proactively identified challenges, refined MEP systems, and eliminated costly clashes—all within the 3D environment. The result? A streamlined process that maintained the integrity of Apple’s design and pushed construction efficiency to new heights. This project wasn’t without its challenges, but through meticulous coordination and our team’s deep understanding of MEP systems, we helped refine the smallest details. Highlights of the design included sustainability-focused features, such as energy-efficient timber materials and a curved printed exterior wall—both functional and architecturally iconic. At Helm BIM, we’re proud to have contributed to one of Miami’s most anticipated projects, proving that a technology-driven, collaborative approach can bring even the most complex designs to life. Apple’s new 15,000-square-foot retail space, opening in 2025, stands as a testament to what’s possible when vision, innovation, and expertise converge. 📧 info@helmbim.com 📞 646-522-0309 #HelmBIM #BIMCoordination #AppleStore #MiamiWorldcenter #SustainableDesign #ConstructionInnovation #MEPLeadership #PreConstruction

Here’s a snapshot of a standpipe and trap primer assembly brought to life in stunning detail at LOD 400+. This level of detail doesn’t just ensure fabrication-ready accuracy—it brings unparalleled value to construction managers and owners. Unlike traditional models that focus solely on protecting space, our approach goes further. By fully modeling systems to this level of detail, the end-user can visualize the finished product before installation—every pipe, support, and fitting. This transparency streamlines decision-making and ensures alignment across teams. What’s more, LOD 400+ enables precise BOM (Bill of Materials) and fabrication planning. Every part is accounted for, down to the supports, making the workflow efficient and error-free. At Helm BIM, we believe in raising the standard by delivering clarity, precision, and value to every project. Let us show you how attention to detail can transform your next build! 📧 info@helmbim.com 📞 646-522-0309 #HelmBIM #BIMCoordination #ScanToBIM #InfrastructureDesign #Sustainability #MEP #DesignAssist #BIM #LOD400 #ConstructionInnovation

🔬 Designing and coordinating a chiller plant goes beyond just meeting operational demands—it’s about ensuring longevity, accessibility, and efficiency. Chillers demand significant clearance for tube-pull operations, and failure to account for this in the design phase can lead to costly and disruptive retrofits down the line. By working closely with project teams, we ensure that every layout prioritizes ease of access without compromising functionality. 📐 Using advanced BIM Coordination tools, we integrate mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems into a unified design that minimizes conflicts and streamlines construction. The result? Optimized spaces that reduce maintenance downtime and improve operational efficiency for building owners and facility managers. 💡 Proactive design saves time, money, and stress. Let’s build smarter, together.

It’s what drives us to wake up early, stay late, and push through obstacles with unwavering focus and dedication. As the legendary BIM pioneer, Patrick MacLeamy, once said, “The longer we wait to address a design problem, the more expensive the solution becomes.” This mindset is at the core of our work: tackling issues head-on, embracing proactive solutions, and refining our craft with each challenge. Every day at Helm BIM, we embrace persistence — not just to complete projects but to build a better future for the communities we serve. 📧 info@helmbim.com 📞 646-522-0309 #HelmBIM #ConstructionEngineering #Persistence #BIMInnovation #ConstructionIndustry #HardWork #Inspiration #BuildingTheFuture

Our latest project in Tampa involved capturing the exterior of a retail mall strip using 3D scanning to document its existing conditions accurately. Here’s a closer look at our process: 1️⃣ Scanning & Capturing: Using the Leica Scanner, we captured high-resolution scans of the entire building exterior, covering every detail and dimension. 2️⃣ Stitching in Cyclone: In Cyclone software, we meticulously stitched these individual scans together to create a unified, cohesive point cloud. Cyclone's precision stitching ensures all scans align perfectly, creating a detailed representation of the building's exterior as one continuous data set. 3️⃣ Exporting to Revit: Once the point cloud is complete, we export it to Revit, where it will serve as a foundational layer for developing an accurate digital model. This model will represent the building’s current conditions, providing architects and engineers with the data they need for further design and restoration. With the Cyclone-to-Revit workflow, we’re able to transform reality into an actionable digital asset, supporting better planning, design, and decision-making for any restoration or remodeling needs. Stay tuned for more insights on how digital accuracy is reshaping the future of building assessment!
