Visual Construction Planning for the Modern Steel Erector
Win more work and eliminate lift-day surprises.
Steel work rarely fails because of fabrication or crews. It fails because the site isn't ready.
cmBuilder helps steel erectors win more work and execute with confidence by visualizing lift sequencing, staging, and crane access before mobilization—so GCs understand exactly how the steel goes up.
Steel Absorbs the Risk; Visual Planning Reduces It
Steel erectors are often impacted by decisions they don’t control:
- Crane access blocked by site changes
- Laydown areas taken by other trades
- Lifts delayed by poor sequencing
- Limited staging for materials and equipment
- Last-minute changes that disrupt erection schedules
Most coordination still lives in schedules, drawings, and conversations.
But those tools don't show how the site will actually function when steel work begins.
When steel gets delayed, crane costs pile up, schedules slip, and safety risks increase.

cmBuilder helps steel contractors:
- Visualize lift sequencing by phase
- Plan crane access, positioning, and swing radius
- Identify conflicts early
- Coordinate sequencing with the GC and other trades
- Win more work with clearer, more defensible plans
Plans your project stakeholders don't understand vs. clear visual plans
Without visual site planning
- Assumptions about access and staging
- Lift delays caused by conflicts
- Rework from sequencing problems
- Unplanned adjustments during active erection
What Changes With cmBuilder
- Clear lift sequencing and erection timing
- Defined crane access, positioning, and laydown zones
- Conflicts identified before steel hits site
- Predictable mobilization and lift execution
Designed for Real Steel Work
cmBuilder is used by construction teams coordinating real lifts, real cranes, and real schedules on fast-moving jobsites.
