Project Overview

Airport Commerce is a 4-story, 328-unit residential development spanning 405,676 square feet. Designed as a wood-framed structure, the project stands out for its complex geometry—characterized by large openings in diaphragms and walls, which presented unique structural coordination and modeling challenges.

Casad's Scope of Work

Casad Infra Solutions was engaged to support the structural engineering team with BIM (Revit) and CAD documentation services, focusing on:

• Development of a detailed and data-rich Revit structural model

• CAD drafting and documentation aligned with evolving design inputs

• Integration of large diaphragm openings and wall discontinuities into the BIM model

• Coordinated structural drawings to support planning, analysis, and permitting

• Deliverables tailored to meet specific LOD (Level of Development) and documentation milestones

Our Capabilities in Action

Advanced Revit Modeling: Accurately captured irregular floor plates, large diaphragm openings, and multi-geometry structural elements

• Complex Detailing Support: Delivered precise documentation for framing transitions and load-bearing wall interruptions

• BIM Collaboration: Enabled smooth coordination across disciplines by maintaining model accuracy and integrity

• Agile Delivery: Worked within aggressive deadlines while responding flexibly to design changes
