The contractor required a 4D simulation to show the construction sequencing of the high rise modular build (49 storeys) and associated works to the project team and stakeholders. By using 4D BIM, our team was able to assist our client in many ways including;
- Identify programme acceleration opportunities
- Enhancing communication between project teams and stakeholders
- Reducing Health & Safety risks by safe spatial planning of plant & equipment
- Visualisation of the project crane strategy
- Improving certainty in project methodology by virtually rehearsing all construction works, for example the installation & sequencing of 2000 modular units
Benefits of Using 4D BIM:
- Improves Schedule Certainty
- Facilitates Project Acceleration
- Enables Safe Spatial Planning
- Detects Sequencing Errors
- Reduces Health & Safety Risks
- Aids Development of Risk Mitigation Strategies
- Improves Certainty in Project Methodology
- Enhances Communication with stakeholders and Project Teams
- Reduces Project Unknowns
