#4D for programme communication:. 1. Complex #construction.2. Constrained urban site.3. First class project team. Another model from our archives, working with the brilliant @WeAreMcAlpine at 21 Moorfields, London for @LandsecGroup. More real-world examples coming soon

Construction is tough. We face:. Cost overruns💰.Safety challenges⚠ .Adversarial environments😠. Improved planning and control is the solution. Use 4D planning to: . Plan as a team💡.Reduce risks ☑ .Manage time🕑

4D planning is not complicated. It's a method that pays for itself many times over if you're doing it correctly. Don't focus on the outputs. Just start. ▶ Hire skilled modellers.▶ Make a basic plan for using it.▶ Do a pilot project (a complex one)

4D and reality capture ▶. Described as 'Google Earth on steroids', @sensat_ai helps project teams to see their infrastructure project and more confidently make the right decisions. Imagine this with ultra-detail 4D on top.

Bigger is better!. Don’t build ultra-high detail 4D models and then only review them on small screens. We've partnered with @MissionRoomLtd on recent projects, with brilliant results:. ⚡ @Bentley_SYNCHRO interaction.⚡ Greatly improved engagement.⚡ Teams can work as teams

What happens when you combine ultra-high detail 4D models with Engineering Grade AR™ ?. Awesome results. 1️�� Contextual safety reviews: see your planned work on site.2️⃣ Real-world look ahead planning.3️⃣ Incredible on-site trade co-ordination. Check out @xyz_reality

Large construction projects often go over time & budget. One cause for this - interdependency & variability of large networks of linked activities. 4D can help resolve this this by providing visual clarity.

ROBOTS + DINOSAURS + HOLOLENS + CLOUD 4D. Welcome to day 3 of the 4D Construction Group conference! Join us on Nov 10th. Register here - Thrilled that on days 1+2 we welcomed 400+ guests from 52 countries, and next week looks even bigger. #4D2020

If you've registered for our 4D Conference, tune in to avoid missing out, as only a few presentations will be recorded. We start tomorrow & have 5 short talks + panel in each session. Plus opportunity to ask questions, join in polls, & meet speakers.

Does 4D give you Jedi abilities?. Absolutely. It allows teams to plan, experience, and rehearse the future. Surely this is a power all projects can benefit from?. Register to learn more at #4D2020

Construction planning is better when we use models and data, and work as a team. It's not just about creating an animation to show the 'project being built'. Join us next week for the 4D Construction Group's first online conference.

"4D" is a method of using geometry+data to plan and control construction. Does this work? Is this too simple? Is there a better summary somewhere? Is there anything to add?.

》What is 4D planning?.》Why are construction teams using this method?.》When can it add value?. David-John Gibbs, Chris Needham, and I answer these questions from our own project experience in this recent BIM+ article.

Where would you position 4D?. Is it part of Information Management? (Or "BIM"?). Or is it Planning?. Or part of Project Management?. Does it matter?.
