I have to check BIM or a coordination model before hanging duct
Ask which model, layer, view, and version controls before using BIM. Treat it as coordination support, not solo approval.
Stop if
- The GC says to check BIM before hanging this. Which model/view/layer controls, and who do I ask if it conflicts with the shop drawing?
Watch out
- Do not install from a model view you do not understand or cannot verify.
Check
- Ask what software/model/view/layer is used on this job.
- Confirm model version/date and trade layer.
- Compare BIM route to shop drawing and field condition.
- Document any model-vs-print conflict.
- Ask who resolves conflicts before installing.
