What is 4D BIM and how is it used to enhance construction planning?

The integration of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in construction management has the potential to provide project managers with advanced digital tools for planning, designing, and executing construction projects. Among the various dimensions of BIM, 4D BIM incorporates time as the fourth dimension. Combining a BIM model with a project plan

Top 4 Use Cases of Drone Surveys in Construction

In this article, we look at the uses of drone surveys in construction & civil engineering projects, its benefits, and its integration with Building Information Modeling (BIM).

A Comparison of Scan to BIM Workflows: Photogrammetry or LIDAR?

When it comes to capturing the existing conditions of your assets, the two main approaches that matter are lidar and photogrammetry.

The Benefits of Virtual ICE Sessions for Construction Delivery

Integrated Concurrent Engineering (ICE) sessions offer a structured approach to collaborative project planning and coordination. For contractors, these sessions provide numerous advantages that enhance project management, improve communication, and lead to better outcomes. Here's how ICE sessions can significantly benefit contractors: 1. Improved Collaboration and Communication Cross-Disciplinary Interaction:
