Prefabrication
Prefabrication at Kelly Sheet Metal provides smart advantages by allowing fabrication in a controlled environment, adding higher quality and time efficiency to your job.
SAFETY: Working in a controlled environment instead of the job site reduces the risk of on-site injury and lost time incidents.
INCEASED PRODUCTIVITY: Prefabricating components offsite allows production to continue even when the project would typically not have plumbers and mechanics on site, such as steel erection.
ELIMINATES THE WEATHER FACTOR: A climate controlled environment from the discomfort of heat or cold allows workers to focus on quality without distractions.
IMPROVES SCHEDULING: Having components already assembled and ready for installation leads to less time in the areas which allows subsequent trade work to begin sooner.
REDUCES WASTE: Instead of scrap pieces being thrown away or lost onsite, those materials can now be used in other assemblies saving the project and ultimately the client money.
QUALITY CONTROL: Assembly and pre-testing off site allows a level of QC that is unachievable through traditional methods decreasing testing and repair times in the field.
BIM
The Building Information Modeling (BIM) process revolutionizes the way we conceive, design, construct, and manage buildings and infrastructure projects. By digitally representing physical and functional characteristics of places, BIM enables us to work with stakeholders collaboratively on a project from its inception to its completion and beyond, fostering transparency, efficiency, and innovation throughout the entire lifecycle, before a shovel hits the ground. Through the integration of various disciplines and data sources, BIM streamlines workflows, enhances decision-making processes, reduces errors, and ultimately delivers higher quality, more sustainable built environments.
Comprehensive preconstruction planning and BIM has led to successful projects for our clients such as Archbold Hospital, Capital Regional Medical Center, Florida State University, Florida A&M University, Tallahassee Community College, Valdosta State University and other private and public commercial industries.
