Project construction schedule/sequencing is linked to the BIM model. A real time simulation of the construction sequence is shown in Navisworks Time Line or as an animation video format. During the entire duration of the project, the Planned vs. Actual construction schedule is compared and presented. Check out more about our services here .

Why is BIM Important for Pre-construction site logistics?

Logistics is one of the most important stages of any AEC venture. Like when a fabricator is transporting the precast concrete from the plant to the site, the construction team needs to plan a lot of things ahead.

So only to put a precast concrete in place , the general contractor needs to oversee the transportation of material which is precast panels, hoisting cranes and a crew to hoist these.
