BIM Can Enhance Project Visibility By Providing 4d Scheduling
BIM can be utilized to provide 4D (scheduling integration) and 5D (cost/productivity and resource loaded estimating) capabilities for the completion of project cycle and generating synergy among existing systems.
- (1888PressRelease) November 09, 2011 - The accurate construction schedule can efficiently communicate the project plan among team members for the successful completion of the project.
Now-a-days BIM is an inheritant part of construction scheduling. BIM can be integrated with construction scheduling to facilitate 4D scheduling. Thus BIM assists to communicate the project plan visually in respect of the timeline to the project team prior to the commencement of actual construction.
A large project involves many stakeholders. So it is very important to schedule the whole project in order to bring out the amount of material, number of labors and possible expenditure. BIM Outsourcing helps them in the project management by providing the BIM model with lots of usable information. A proper sequence helps them to track and analyze any problem and detect conflict and mitigation.
BIM can be utilized to provide 4D (scheduling integration) and 5D (cost/productivity and resource loaded estimating) capabilities for the completion of project cycle and generating synergy among existing systems.
By connecting the CPM construction schedule to the BIM, the 4th dimension of time is added to the model. This leads to a virtual construction simulation facilitating a graphically wealthy and animated representation of the planned construction sequence set against time. The project controls capabilities are also developed. The project managers get the ability to focus their resources by highlighting the critical path activities inside the model.
4D schedules are a influential tool for design and engineering documentation and analysis, phasing, more accurate cost estimating, optimized means and sequence of work, invoice reconciliation with work complete on-site, on-site production control with the Superintendent and the Subs, design intent and construction plan, an information rich as-built model for facilities management, well organized trade coordination and communicating planned work to the different kind of audiences as well as project stakeholders and those directly liable for project execution.
With the help of 5D construction scheduling, precise bills of quantity are generated, which can be utilized for amalgamating cost and schedule. This leads to incorporate estimators, cost managers, and planners into the scheduling process.
Advantages of BIM for construction scheduling :-
Lessen and or eliminate costly delays which can affect your construction schedule.
Facilitates communication with your subcontractors more competently and successfully
Organize procurement orders to make the delivery of key materials in time
Assists for executing the construction activities in time
Enhance the responsibility between the project owner, general and subcontractors
Enhance project visibility, increased profits, reduced costs, faster cash flow and earned value reporting
