That is what we provide. Working closely with our Clients, architects and building partners, we strive to ensure that the very best projects are delivered on time and within budget, while enhancing society with a brighter, more sustainable future. 1.3 Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) & The advisory group Structural Design is part of the Building Information Modelling (BIM) Business Line Buildings and has approximately 75 staff members located in three countries: the Netherlands, Building Information Models (BIM) are increasingly India and United Arab Emirates (UAE). being used by our experts to develop our projects. Virtual Design & Construction (VDC) is an effective step 1.2 Added Value forward in creating efficient building designs. The VDC approach which has been developed in cooperation As environmental issues continue to change with with Stanford University and the University of Delft, increasing speed, the requirements which buildings focuses on product, process and organisation, before must meet in terms of sustainability and cost- the actual detailed design is carried out. Royal effectiveness become ever more demanding. Our focus HaskoningDHV uses integrated rooms (I Rooms), in is in creating structural designs using innovative which we stimulate the integrated approach using technologies to deliver built environments that best suit virtual models to create the most efficient design. our clients’ needs, with the emphasis on buildability, This approach has advantages such as time sustainability, flexibility and safety. We ensure that the optimisation, cost effectiveness and risk reduction, best solution can be built at minimum expense in terms without affecting the quality of the finished product. It of total cost of ownership, but can also be exciting, leads to a smooth integration process with all refreshing and beautiful. Our experts are active in stakeholders and disciplines within the design team. identifying new trends, emerging challenges and technical advancements which we develop into promising opportunities. By using our advanced technical skills and business networking, we are able to convert opportunities into innovative solutions which offer value within society.

In High rise design, Architects are constantly pushing the boundaries, and the requirements for maximising internal space can be challenging for the structural designer. To combat this, Royal HaskoningDHV has taken the innovative approach to use the building façade as load bearing element.
