Hilti MT System, a modularized supporting system for multiple trade installations, has been designed with the most innovative corrosion protection for long-term use in indoor and outdoor environments with low to moderate pollution. With the latest Zinc Magnesium, it offers a cost-optimized, robust, and durable solution which requires less rework and is environmentally conscious. What is Zinc-Magnesium (ZM) Zinc Magnesium (ZM) galvanisation is a coating applied to raw steel, prior to production of the finished products. The Zinc-Magnesium alloy used contains magnesium, and additionally aluminum (is also referred to...

In managing complex construction projects, the key is to find a game-changing solution that can be implemented in every stage. Hilti, a global leader in construction solutions, is revolutionising the way construction projects are managed with its Integrated Project Solutions (IPS). IPS is a comprehensive suite of services that combines engineering expertise, pre-fabrication, advanced logistics, jobsite automation and digital solutions to help construction projects be safer, more productive, and more sustainable.   As a solution, the IPS can help manage issues such as space constraints, loading conditions and the app...

PROFIS Engineering - Concrete-to-concrete (C2C) Module With the newly launch C2C module in PROFIS Engineering, you can now design post-installed rebar connection without the use of spreadsheet. Select Concrete-to-Concrete Module in PROFIS Engineering Select "end anchorage" and your corresponding application If you have the loading for individual rebar and wish to go for a "per bar" analysis, please select "Single Rebar". Adjust the geometry of the connection and enter your loading You can input the dimension and loading of your connection in the center session of the interface. Please note that u...

Starting from 2022, it is our honored to have ATAL Engineering Group (ATAL), Aurecon, Chun Wo Development Holdings Limited and Technological and Higher Education Institute of Hong Kong 香港高等教育科技學院 on board with us for 2nd BIM with HILTI. We hope that all the participants will have a better understanding on BIM and how it can contribute to a more productive and effective construction industry with embarking this exciting journey.  More information about this program will be shared regularly here and our Engineering Platform.  BIM with Hilti 2022 Kick-Off Ceremony Highlights:

BIM with HILTI Project Competition and Closing Ceremony Throughout the journey of BIM with HILTI, all the young engineers participated in the program showcased their passion of improving the industry by craving for a new way of doing MEP design. Hilti would like to express our deepest appreciation once again for the tremendous support from our program partners and all the participants. Stay tuned for highlight of the project groups' work!

After a break from the 5th wave of COVID, we are excited to continue BIM with HILTI program by gathering the participants from our partners to share the learnings in this journey to their management.  Participants shared that through the utilization of BIM, a new way of working is emerged. BIM with HILTI facilitates communications between consultants & main contractors in early stage of design, fosters mutual understanding to minimize crushes and inaccuracy occurred in one project. It brings full transparency of M&E design in the early stage, including every details and feasibility of applying common hangers to ach...

To facilitate the collaboration on applying BIM throughout various stages of construction projects, BIM with HILTI is a pioneer project formed by Hilti Asia Pacific, Jardine Engineering Corporation , WSP in Asia, BYME Engineering (Hong Kong) Ltd. and Technological and Higher Education Institute of Hong Kong 香港高等教育科技學院 , to design and build the best use case of BIM for MEP.   Our BIM with HILTI program partner, Technological and Higher Education Institute of Hong Kong 香港高等教育科技學院 , emphasizes on the development of BIM by upgrading the facilitates in both software and hardware. To equip students wit...

Modular construction is widely recognized and used across the industry to make installations more flexible, cost-effective and efficient. It’s also safer and offers better quality. It helps builders meet tight deadlines, increase profits, and comply with environmental protection targets. Incorporating modular construction into today’s complicated projects is more than an option; it’s where smart companies mine opportunities to satisfy their customers and remain competitive. Modular construction outperforms traditional welding by almost every measure. A study by the Construction Industry Institute reports that modul...
