Seeing Below the Surface: Using SIM, SUM & SUE to Reduce Risk

  • Lennar 7411 Fullerton Street Jacksonville, Florida, 32256 United States (map)

Join us on August 13, 2026, from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM (EDT) for a Lunch & Learn hosted by Lennar, with lunch provided by UES.

This session, “Seeing Below the Surface: Using SIM, SUM & SUE to Reduce Risk,” will feature Ben Weide, Director of Virtual Design Consulting at Universal Engineering Sciences (UES), and will provide an overview of how advanced subsurface technologies are transforming project planning and execution.

The discussion will explore Subsurface Information Modeling (SIM), Subsurface Utility Mapping (SUM), and Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE), highlighting how utility mapping, geophysics, and 3D underground modeling can identify utilities and subsurface conditions before construction begins.

Attendees will gain insight into:
• The fundamentals of SIM, SUM, and SUE
• Advanced utility mapping and geophysical technologies
• How 3D underground modeling improves project coordination
• Strategies for reducing utility conflicts and construction delays
• Minimizing costly underground surprises during design and construction

This session is designed to provide valuable perspective for developers, engineers, contractors, and land professionals seeking to improve project outcomes through better subsurface understanding and coordination.

Lunch Provided. RSVP Required.
