The costs of building sites and construction materials are constantly rising. In order to be economical and energy-efficient in today's world, technologies in the building sector are constantly evolving. In order to build and produce as energy self-sufficiently as possible, alternative and renewable resources are increasingly being used. This means that buildings are becoming more complex and innovative, and technical media systems are becoming denser and more compact.
The requirements for technical systems and buildings are also continuing to grow. In order to meet these requirements, complex 3D planning is usually required. Depending on the project basis, the application engineering team at Sikla GmbH supports investors, specialist planners and contractors in a wide range of aspects of the planning phase.
3D-planning of the application engineering
Contents and advantages of external planning services
With this type of service, the application engineer is available exclusively to the customer and their project for a predefined period of time. Depending on the requirements and size of the project, this can last for several weeks, months or even years.
Being part of such a team is extremely important for project management. A shared workflow helps to analyse problems more quickly so that a solution can be found that is suitable for all parties involved and is also cost-effective.
Communication is facilitated by direct contact persons. This helps to make agreements more quickly and often paves the way for shorter decision-making processes. In order to offer the customer the best possible support, it is not uncommon to form a project team together with other specialist planners from a wide range of fields, from architecture to electrical and installation technology, at an early stage of the planning phase.
Software-supported planning process
The entire planning process is often supported by various software tools, such as coordination software, planning software (SICAD4 CAD family) and/or cooperative working methods (BIM). Other planning activities using external software are also possible.

A structured and flexible approach is always the order of the day in 3D planning. The focus is on an economical and customer-oriented design of the mounting concept based on the standards and regulations applicable on site. The comprehensive fastening system from the Siconnect and siFramo product groups also makes work easier for the user and saves a considerable amount of time.
