Trimble Construction One

Design, detailing, and modeling

Ensure your construction vision becomes reality

Quickly create accurate conceptual, schematic, and constructible models that deliver clear direction to fabrication and construction teams with 3D modeling, structural engineering, BIM software, and more available with Trimble Construction One.

Remove barriers disrupting design, detailing, and modeling goals

For construction design, detailing, and site planning professionals, these daily challenges might sound familiar.

Inaccurate documentation

Limited access to timely data can lead to models and designs that are missing key information which leads to errors, delays, and rework.

Tight timelines

With high expectations to turn around models and designs, quality, compliance, and completeness can suffer.

Miscommunication with downstream parties

Lack of real-time workflows or modern software components often leads to confusion over designs, models, and detailing work.

We’re here to help you deliver more value with your designs

The design work you do is critical to driving downstream efficiencies and accuracy in the field and factory.

Trimble Construction One connects 3D modeling, structural engineering, and BIM solutions such as SketchUp, Tekla software, Trimble Connect, Trimble’s suite of MEP software, like SysQue, and others for workflows that keep your design teams on the same page. Boost the speed and accuracy of the work done—both in the office and the field.
