Why Solid Wall Detailing Takes Longer Than It Should (and How to Improve It)

A 45-minute end-to-end walkthrough live in IMPACT, from model to shop drawings. Solid wall detailing is often more time-consuming than expected. Manual tasks, design changes, and coordination between project stakeholders can all contribute to longer lead times and an increased risk of errors.

Most precast producers don’t struggle with Wall panels because of complexity alone—they struggle because of how detailing is handled in practice

Openings are incorrectly positioned, embedded elements are misaligned, and the dimensions are improperly specified.

Openings are correctly positioned, embedded elements are properly aligned, and the dimensions are accurately specified.

In this session, we will walk through:

• Where detailing work typically takes more time than necessary
• Common causes of errors and rework
• Opportunities to simplify and standardise the detailing process

We will also show, in a live session, how solid walls can be detailed in a more structured and automated way, from model to shop drawings.

Examples will be shown in both IMPACT CAD and Revit, reflecting different ways of working and how integrated workflows can support the detailing process.
