CCI has provided CAD services for clients in the private industry sector since 1996.

Anheuser Busch - Columbus, Ohio

• Various Projects
  Prime Consultant
  
  CCI worked with engineers to develop electrical, piping and mechanical drawings per Corporate Standards. Accomplishments included:

  • Created As-Built drawings on new installations as well as equipment upgrades.
  • Audited drawings in control rooms for latest revisions.
  • Provided drawing conversions from AutoCAD to MicroStation.
  • Ensured drawings were consistent with Anheuser Busch's Engineering Design Standards and Falcon-related numbering systems.

Anheuser Busch - St. Louis, Missouri

• Wuhan China Brewery Drawing Management
  Prime Consultant
  
  Anheuser-Busch was preparing to update its brewery located in Wuhan, China, and required a complete and updated set of drawings for the facility. CCI reviewed over 5,300 drawings, and sorted them by discipline and process. The drawings were then given drawing numbers that conformed to the Anheuser-Busch numbering system, and were incorporated into the Falcon data and image management system.

Battelle - West Jefferson, Ohio

• Battelle JM-10 Research Facility
  Sub-consultant to The Superior Group
  
  CCI worked with a team of contractors to create a BIM model of a new research facility for Battelle.
  
  CCI helped plan the electrical conduit layout to avoid conflict, added hangers for electrical conduits to ensure there would be no issues on installation in the field, and provided onsite assistance in field verification for a portion of the project. CCI also created supplemental drawings as needed so conduits and hangers could be installed in the field according to plan.
  
  CCI attended weekly coordination meetings with a team of contractors in order to identify and resolve conflicts between the trades. Navisworks Manage software was used to navigate the model and identify clashes. As the project was nearing completion, the coordination team used remote conferencing technology in order to expedite the close of the coordination phase of the project.

Honda of America Manufacturing - Marysville, Ohio

• Honda Wetlands Mitigation Study
  Sub-consultant to NHSC, Inc.
  
  Honda R&D Americas, Inc,. in Marysville, Ohio, commissioned a wetland mitigation study to determine the location for a new wetland to replace one that was removed prior to the study.
  
  NHSC determined where the soils, land conditions and slopes were favorable for construction of a new wetland. CCI's role was to create graphics and a 3-D rendering for presentation and reports for submission to Honda. CCI used AutoCAD to provide acreages of certain areas determined by NHSC and ArcMap and Illustrator to create presentation worthy graphics. CCI also used recent aerial photography of the locale to provide Honda with visuals of the area in question.
  
  

Nationwide Children's Hospital - Columbus, Ohio

• Children’s Hospital Central Energy Plant
  Sub-consultant to The Superior Group
  
  In coordination with plumbing, HVAC, and fire protection contractors working on the project, CCI’s main role was to plan the electrical conduit routes and equipment placement so as to avoid conflict with other contractors’ work items and initial building plans.
  
  The BIM data-sharing capability of the drawings enabled tight coordination of all elements of the project, helping to ensure it would run smoothly. CCI regularly sent out file updates and received regular updates from the other contractors (plumbing, HVAC, fire protection) in return, ensuring everyone was on the same page, working with the same information. When a conflict was discovered, CCI determined the most efficient alternative plan for all parties involved.
  
  CCI also added information describing the type of wire every electrical conduit used. Using BIM built-in intelligence, CCI provided estimates on total length of conduit needed during the material ordering process.
  
  The spatial relationships aspect of BIM involves detecting collisions and resolving/avoiding them. CCI determined location and position of the lights and accurately placed them in optimal locations where nothing would obscure the light.
  
  CCI added hangers for the electrical conduits to ensure there would be no issues upon installation in the field; drafted the lighting plan for the building; provided onsite assistance in field verification; and created supplemental drawings when necessary so that conduits and hangers could be installed in the field according to the plans, allowing the foremen to distribute work and maintain efficiency.
