Clash Matrix

A clash matrix organizes construction systems chronologically, prioritizing various disciplines to facilitate conflict resolution in projects. It enhances precision by breaking down elements for detailed analysis, particularly beneficial for complex projects. The matrix aids in identifying priorities, assigning responsibilities, and guiding coordination plans, while recommending the use of BIM clash detection software for efficient management.

CLASH MATRIX
What is a detailed clash matrix?
The Clash Matrix organizes construction systems chronologically, prioritizing
architectural/structural elements, mechanical (HVAC), plumbing, electrical, and fire-fighting Breaking down the clash matrix into detailed sections enhances precision and control,

How does the clash matrix help us?


1.Priority Identification:
1. Identifies critical clashes that need immediate resolution.
2. Indicates which model requires attention first for efficient problem-solving.
2.Responsibility Assignment: Clearly assigns responsibility for resolving clashes among
