Case Study: LPR Construction achieves safer, more efficient erection planning with Trimble Tekla 3D models

Why LPR Construction chooses Tekla 3D models for its erection planning

LPR Construction, a Colorado-based heavy industrial contractor and AISC-certified steel erector, needed a better way to plan complex steel erection work, improve safety, and manage scheduling and crane logistics. The company used Trimble’s Tekla 3D models and BIM tools for erection planning and field operations to replace unclear 2D documentation with a more accurate, visual process.

Trimble’s Tekla Structures, along with Trimble Connect and Trimble Field Link, helped LPR Construction virtually plan jobs, share models across teams, and speed up surveying and lift planning. The result was faster planning, better communication, safer operations, and major time savings in the field—such as generating survey points in minutes instead of days—and LPR also reported the lowest total recordable incident rates in the United States.
