Design conflict detection in construction projects is a very important task for ensuring the quality, time and cost. This job now has become more convenient due to the use of BIM. This paper proposes a process for BIM-based clash detection for introducing to the BIM practitioners in Vietnam. This process was then adopted in a complicated control house, which is a part of transformer station project in Vietnam, where the design was developed with 2D-CAD. The process discovered 36 design conflicts, including inconsistencies and geometric interferences. The results contribute as a proof-of-concept of BIM-based design conflict detection in Vietnam, where BIM is not very widely adopted.
