Angitha Pradeep looks at ten ways 4D BIM can transform projects and construction sites
According to Rich Humphrey, VP for Construction at Bentley Systems, 4D BIM is at a tipping point. It’s still not an everyday practice, but is becoming so, and most major construction companies have a virtual design and construction department where BIM is often started in offices. He says that organisations are now not just using 4D BIM during the planning stage but taking that multi-dimensional model through to the construction and execution phase.

Project Planning

4D BIM allows for more precision during the initial planning stages, including the tender stage, presentation to the client and in the contractor’s plan. By adding sequencing information, it allows for the feasibility of schemes to be assessed from the initial stage itself. Moreover, in digital workflow planners can influence and share proposals to significantly add more value from early on in the project development phase.
