International Aviation Properties - Hangar VJS Lincoln

AVIATION

We are in business to serve the aviation industry by building and renovating hangars and related facilities nationwide. Our depth of experience allows our team to work with architects, engineers, and end-users to help construct the industry’s best hangars. 

Aviation building structures can create unique opportunities and challenges. Our experience allows us to provide creative solutions and suggestions from pre-engineered metal buildings and precast facilities to standard building designs, for on-time and on-budget project delivery.

VJS provides safety services on all projects.  It is an investment, not an expense. Our safety program begins with identifying needs and requirements before construction begins and continues throughout the project. The VJS team implements procedures to protect employees and patrons.  We continually provide safety standards training to our employees and project partners.

BIM (BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING)

The use of BIM has transformed the construction industry. The ability to create a virtual model of the building project allows us to vastly improve our ability to interpret and communicate the design with the owner, architect, engineers, subcontractor, suppliers, and building officials. From preliminary design through project close-out, our team uses BIM strategies to benefit the cost, quality, and duration of the project. As well as BIM modeling specialists, our estimators, project managers, and superintendents are trained in BIM.

BENEFITS OF BIM TECHNOLOGY

PLANNING & MANAGEMENT

  • Construction planning and management by a combination  of design and construction
     

  • Acts as a digital database in which change in one view is automatically reflected throughout the entire project drawings
     

  • Facilitates the visualization of the entire building
     

  • Allows model-based quantity surveys, visualizations, virtual mock-ups, clash detection and coordination, dynamic logistics planning, and site staging

RISK REDUCTION

  • Reduces risk by enabling faster, more accurate decision-making throughout the design and construction process
     

  • Conflict detection between various design elements before the beginning of the construction phase

PROJECT IMPROVEMENT

  • Improves quality and accuracy of the entire project, especially with Owner’s FFE
     

  • Ease in producing high-quality, accurate, and precise construction design collaboration documents
     

  • Increases the design collaboration and communication between the team
