Case Study: The Harman Group optimizes complex steel connections with Qnect

The Harper to Transform Downtown Philadelphia A 25-story mixed use building with non-traditional connections

The Harman Group faced the challenge of designing and optimizing the complex, non-traditional steel connections for The Harper, a unique 24-story mixed-use tower in Philadelphia. To tackle this complex project, their engineering team sought a solution from vendor Qnect and utilized its QuickQnect software to help map and iterate on connection designs efficiently.

By implementing Qnect, the project team could rapidly run and re-engineer connections, which streamlined the revision process and circumvented unnecessary RFIs. The detailer reported that Qnect was intuitive and could be beneficial for a large majority of their future projects. This resulted in significant time savings and improved overall workflow efficiency for the entire project team.
