Verity™ can dramatically reduce the financial impact that results from fixing poorly constructed, out-of-tolerance work. The software analyzes point cloud data of construction sites and compares it to the design model, determining which elements have been installed to date and flagging out-of-tolerance or inaccurately constructed work. Verity also analyzes constructed elements, including footers, structural members, MEP, concrete, penetrations, curtain walls, and more. Elements in the design model are checked to determine installation status and tolerance rating. The software is fully integrated with Navisworks, so variance data can undergo additional analysis and documentation.
