LANDSCAPE BIM

Landscape BIM Modeling & Coordination Services in the UAE

End-to-end Landscape BIM - from early concept massing through fabrication-level, construction-ready documentation. We model what contractors actually need to build from, not just what looks right in a rendering.

Overview

The Problem We Solve

On most projects, landscape design finalizes late and gets modeled fastest - often by whoever has the least time left in the schedule. That compresses coordination, and coordination is exactly where clashes hide: irrigation against utilities, planting against structural elements, hardscape levels against site drainage falls. Asterwix builds landscape models with enough lead time and rigor to catch these before they become site problems.

What's Included

LOD 200–500 Landscape Modeling

We deliver progressive Landscape BIM models throughout every stage of the project lifecycle, from early concept development (LOD 200) to fully coordinated, fabrication-level models (LOD 500). As the design evolves, our models increase in accuracy and detail, supporting design validation, interdisciplinary coordination, construction planning, and long-term asset management. Every element is modeled with constructability in mind, ensuring the final model accurately reflects what will be built on site.

Hardscape BIM Modeling

Our hardscape models include paving systems, kerbs, edging, steps, ramps, retaining walls, planters, seating elements, bollards, pergolas, water features, fences, handrails, and site furniture. Each component is created using real construction dimensions, materials, slopes, expansion joints, and installation details rather than simplified placeholder geometry, enabling accurate coordination, quantity extraction, and construction documentation.

Softscape BIM Modeling

We develop intelligent BIM models for planting beds, trees, shrubs, groundcovers, lawns, green roofs, bioswales, rain gardens, and other landscape planting systems. Planting layouts are coordinated with grading, irrigation, drainage, lighting, and utility networks to ensure practical installation, long-term plant health, and compliance with the landscape design intent.

Irrigation & Underground Utility Coordination

Landscape projects often involve congested underground service corridors. Our BIM workflow coordinates irrigation pipelines, valves, controllers, sleeves, drainage systems, electrical conduits, communication ducts, water supply networks, and other buried utilities to eliminate conflicts before construction begins. Early coordination minimizes excavation changes, protects critical infrastructure, and significantly reduces construction risk.

Construction-Ready Landscape Shop Drawings

We produce highly detailed shop drawings directly from the coordinated BIM model, ensuring complete consistency between the model and construction documentation. Deliverables include layout plans, setting-out drawings, sections, elevations, enlarged details, planting plans, irrigation layouts, hardscape details, schedules, dimensions, annotations, and installation references that contractors can confidently build from.

BOQ Extraction & Quantity Take-Offs

Our intelligent BIM models generate accurate quantity take-offs for paving materials, kerbs, retaining walls, concrete works, planting areas, irrigation pipelines, fittings, valves, lighting fixtures, site furniture, and landscape accessories. These model-based quantities support reliable cost estimation, tender preparation, procurement planning, budgeting, and material tracking throughout the project lifecycle.

Navisworks Clash Detection & BIM Coordination

Using Autodesk Navisworks, we perform systematic clash detection between Landscape, Architecture, Structure, Civil, and MEP disciplines. Our coordination process identifies geometric conflicts, clearance issues, underground utility clashes, access problems, and construction sequencing challenges before work reaches the site. Detailed clash reports and coordinated resolutions help reduce rework, improve construction efficiency, and maintain project schedules.

Quality Assurance & BIM Standards

Every Landscape BIM model undergoes comprehensive quality control to verify modeling accuracy, levels, dimensions, material assignments, family consistency, naming standards, data integrity, and coordination compliance. Our deliverables align with project BIM Execution Plans (BEP), ISO 19650 workflows, and industry best practices, ensuring reliable, coordinated, and construction-ready BIM information.

At Asterwix, we deliver more than 3D landscape models—we create intelligent, coordinated, construction-ready BIM solutions that improve collaboration, reduce project risk, streamline construction, and support the entire lifecycle of landscape assets.

Landscape subcontractors bidding on UAE developments, main contractors needing an independent coordination partner, and developers who want landscape treated with the same rigor as architecture and MEP.
