The Weitz Company - Park West Student Housing Project
College Station, TX
The Park West project team leveraged Building Information Modeling (BIM) to identify constraints and clashes with structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing subcontractors prior to work being performed. Technology such as Bluebeam and virtual reality were also instrumental in enabling quick, timely decisions. We replicated 1.4 million square feet of Park West in a virtual environment (over 15,000 square feet of units and 74,000 square feet from the amenity deck), which enabled the client to make better, more informed decisions by visualizing the space virtually.
AFPG installed:
- Roughly 22,500 fire sprinkler heads
- 14 low pressure dry systems
- 3 fire pumps
- Multiple standpipes and 63 wet systems
