Which practices help resolve clashes during construction administration?

Isolating teams and avoiding cross-discipline reviews

Delaying reviews until after occupancy

Relying on contractor memory for clashes

BIM/CAD coordination drawings, RFIs, and regular coordination meetings to resolve clashes

Effective clash resolution during construction administration comes from an integrated, collaborative workflow that uses BIM/CAD coordination drawings, formal RFIs, and regular coordination meetings. BIM/CAD coordination drawings provide a single, up-to-date view of all disciplines, so clashes are visible early and can be addressed before they become field problems. RFIs formalize questions about discrepancies and create a traceable record of decisions, ensuring everyone has the same interpreted information. Regular coordination meetings bring designers, engineers, and contractors together to review the clashes, agree on solutions, assign responsibilities, and align schedules and sequencing.

Isolating teams and avoiding cross-discipline reviews prevents important conflicts from being seen and resolved, delaying the project. Delaying reviews until after occupancy makes corrections costly and disruptive. Relying on contractor memory is unreliable and risks missing critical details.
