Clash Detection

Clash detection is a process used in construction and engineering to identify conflicts or overlaps between different building elements—such as pipes, ducts, and structural components—before construction begins. Using specialized software, designers can simulate and analyze how these elements fit within a building design. This helps uncover potential problems early, allowing teams to make adjustments and avoid costly changes or delays during construction. Essentially, clash detection ensures that all building parts can coexist within the space as planned, leading to a smoother, more efficient construction process.
