Our projects include long-term care, healthcare, mass timber, residential and commercial work across North America.\nWho Are We?\nFounded in 2014, CadMakers is an industry-leading digital construction and manufacturing technology company headquartered in Burnaby, British Columbia. We develop digital solutions that help the global construction industry solve complex, recurring challenges. Our technology and expertise empower clients to improve how projects are planned and delivered.\nAbout the Role\nBuild Construction-Level MEPF Models: Develop coordinated Revit models of HVAC, hydronic, plumbing, gas and fire protection systems, along with associated mechanical equipment from IFC drawings, consultant models, shop drawings and trade input. Model to LOD 350-400 with actual sizes, fittings, insulation, service access and clearances\nModel Mechanical Rooms: Lay out boiler, chiller and water entry rooms in full detail, including equipment, housekeeping pads and all piping and ductwork\n Lead MEP Coordination: Coordinate MEPF systems with electrical, structural and architectural models, and run clash detection in Revizto, Navisworks and Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC). Track clashes through to resolution and keep the model current as RFIs, SIs and change orders come in\nDeliver Constructability Insights: Raise virtual RFIs and issue reports on drawing conflicts, clearances, no-fly zones and installation sequencing, with practical solutions the trade can build\nRun Coordination Meetings: Present the model in coordination meetings with general contractors, mechanical and electrical trades, consultants and fabricators, and drive open issues to closure\nProduce Construction Drawings: Generate layout, penetration, sleeve, shaft and section drawings, then manage review submittals and as-built updates\n Deliver Fabrication Outputs: Bring ductwork and piping to fabrication level and produce pipe spool drawings, duct assembly drawings and bills of materials (BOMs). Export fabrication data (e.g. SysQue to Trimble FabShop) and hanger/support point layouts for field layout tools\nOwn Project Delivery: Plan modeling work against scope, schedule and budget, and flag scope changes early.
