We spend time talking with Michael to better understand how him, HKP and Solibri are helping shape some of the largest construction projects in the Helsinki area.<\/p>\n<p>HKP Architects have been responsible for some of the largest public construction projects in Finland. Their latest project is the construction of the Matinkyl\u00e4 Metro Centre. Michael joined HKP in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was hired for BIM but it\u2019s a big cake and you can spend a lot of time managing the BIM model quality.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou first start by being a creative. As the project progresses, your role transforms more and more into a project manager. I do feel that\u2019s best as the creator shouldn\u2019t lose the link between those first design ideas and final creative delivery\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3>Part of the process<\/h3>\n<p>Michael explains how they use Solibri in every part of the planning for Metro Keskus. He tried alternative software but the level of checking was better with Solibri.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone has Solibri running on their desktops. If it\u2019s a \u2018Solibri day\u2019, I focus first on clash detection. When we have a \u2018BIM week\u2019, we have to make reports and what\u2019s the status of our IFC. I do clash detection every day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe rest of the team is cross checking the model. I make a lot of communication reports and share if I see problems arising\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>I ask about what savings Michael finds with Solibri? \u201cIt\u2019s really hard to say how much time is saved with Solibri. I can say that after two years of clash detection, it has saved a lot of money and errors. If we hadn\u2019t found those faults, they would have ended up on the construction site. Better to fix them early\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3>Benefits<\/h3>\n<p>Visualisation within Solibri Model Checker benefits HKP. Solibri offers the user a fluent and easily understood view of the model.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast Spring, Citycon marketing division came to learn about SMC and reading IFC files. After 30 minutes they understood the basic functionality and there was no going back. Within two hours, they were really comfortable with the idea of viewing 3D models and faults in SMC. 2D models can never give you that kind of understanding in such a short time\u201d. Thank you Michael for an interesting day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Solibri Uk Limited<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>info-uk@solibri.com<\/p>\n<p>sales-uk@solibri.com<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.solibri.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.solibri.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Solibri\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@Solibri<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Please note: this is a commercial profile<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solibri speak to Michael Palm, HKP Architects BIM expert about his experiences using Solibri Model Checker and how it&#8217;s shaping large construction projects<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[305],"tags":[428,775,703,781,464,723,683,768,489],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[172524],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-30086","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-bim-news","7":"tag-bim","8":"tag-bim-today-august-2017","9":"tag-bim-today-february-2017","10":"tag-bim-today-november-2017","11":"tag-contributor-profile","12":"tag-pbc-today-april-2017","13":"tag-pbc-today-january-2017","14":"tag-pbc-today-july-2017","15":"tag-sh-solibri","16":"stakeholder_rel_tag-solibri"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Solibri Model Checker \u2013 getting it right first time<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Solibri speak to Michael Palm, HKP Architects BIM expert about his experiences using Solibri Model Checker and how it&#039;s shaping large construction projects\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/digital-construction-news\/bim-news\/solibri-model-checker\/30086\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Solibri Model Checker \u2013 getting it right first time\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Solibri speak to Michael Palm, HKP Architects BIM expert about his experiences using Solibri Model Checker and how it&#039;s shaping large construction projects\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/digital-construction-news\/bim-news\/solibri-model-checker\/30086\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
