Connected Construction: Streamlining Steel Fabrication and Erection with BIM and Field Solutions in Metal Building Construction

Wednesday, June 17, 2026
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (EDT)

Event Details

In the steel industry, margins for error are razor-thin, and miscommunications between the shop and the jobsite lead to costly rework and delays. Join Trimble for an exciting webinar designed specifically for metal fabricators and erectors looking to enhance their workflows with efficiency. We will demonstrate how to elevate your QA/QC protocols, streamline collaboration, and mitigate risk by creating a seamless, connected workflow from initial design to final erection.

The session will be split into two core focuses to address your entire workflow. First, we will explore office optimization, showing how you can design, detail, and track your projects with precision using Tekla, SketchUp, and Trimble Connect. Next, we will shift focus to the field, demonstrating how Trimble FieldLink, coupled with Robotic Total Stations, Laser Scanners, and Augmented Reality with SiteVision, allows you to capture accurate as-built conditions. This segment will also show how to utilize these tools to ensure fabricated metals fit perfectly on-site before they arrive, and verify installation accuracy in real time.
