Demolition and new structure phasing in a live hospital environment
4D Planning
A process that combines graphical and non-graphical project information related to time, resource and logistics management. It allows any member of a project team to have instant access and input into the project programme and logistics plans.
4D planning and simulations allow project teams to communicate more efficiently and effectively, as well as planning proactively to ensure the best possible solution is analysed and presented to all stakeholders with mitigated conflicts and identified opportunities.
