4D time simulation in Navisworks software for construction projects are often complicated BIM (Building Information Modeling) services to be used on a daily basis. Reasons can include problems in model coordination, time and element mismatches, time model execution availability, and more. With this approach, we will use the Dynamo player and Dynamo workflows over Revit 2021 software to clean, manage, label, and even create a time schedule so 4D simulation can be easily created and the communication proposal facilitates model coordination and execution. We will cover several routine workflows so that all elements for any type of intelligent model are aligned clean and useful for project management, enabling us to link the model and time schedules with Navisworks in record time. This instructional demo is the synthesis of 13 years of simulations from different projects to make 4D simulation a required task for all projects.

This session will explore the groundbreaking blockchain technology based on Autodesk Construction Cloud that unlocks today's unused construction data to the streamlined inspection process, boosting 20% of productivity aiming to alleviate labor shortages. This project has more than four dozen stakeholders and serves as a prime example of strong collaboration across the industry, contractors, technology startups, and academics. Features of our platform not only authenticate construction data but also ensure smooth integration of various data through device and applications, enabling the direct use of construction data as an integration platform as a service (iPaaS). A key element of our approach is the integration of design data because it is critical to ensure that the construction result meets the client's requirements. This key element is consistently achieved by using the API integration (Autodesk Platform Services) with Autodesk Construction Cloud.

Many of the processes we use to manage construction operations are designed around outdated paper-based workflows. Simply digitizing these paper-based processes is not enough to bring the improvements we need to see in the field. The management of plan revisions, information requests, and product submittal data are critical to a successful buildout, but the traditional paper-based processes used to manage them are slow and limit access to information, resulting in delays and rework. PlanGrid reimagines each of these processes by using digital workflows that enable the entire construction team—from the designers, to the project managers, to the on-site tradespeople—to stay up to date. Learn how to use PlanGrid to manage plan revisions, requests for information, and product submittals in a way that’s more productive and more transparent, all while enhancing collaboration and access to information to reduce delays and rework.

Do you need near real-time feedback on your construction project?Is scanning the way to achieve it?We think so.

This Instructional Demo will highlight the flow of data that could be experienced immediately after a slab pour.Point cloud data will be optimised using a combination of Revit, APL, Dynamo and BIM 360 Layout.

You will already know that slab deviations in relation to point clouds can be displayed graphically in Revit, but what else can you do with that information?

What if you could send back the out-of-tolerance locations to your team in the field and enable them to mark the areas requiring remediation on the ground semi-automatically?

We will show you how this could work for you.

This class gives firsthand insights into the application and documented quantified benefits of bringing Building Information Modeling (BIM) technologies to the field at Max Bögl Group, Germany’s largest privately owned construction company. We will discuss how we were able to deliver construction management workflows with higher quality and in significantly less time than before, and we’ll share best practice workflows for Navisworks software, BIM 360 Glue software, and BIM 360 Field software. As a highlight we will share how we enriched the regular BIM 360 software platform by creating a custom document-management system integration, linking 3D elements to detailed 2D CAD documents. The result is an automated, rule-based integration of 2D plans for 3D models with web and mobile access. A 3D object is then linked to its CAD metadata, checklists, issues, tasks, and respective (plan) documents, and it can be tracked with a QR code.

Construction site layout plans are integral to Construction management and involve placing and sizing site equipment and temporary structures.

While Infraworks supports 3D objects, there is no support for generic parametric 3D objects. This meant NCC had to model separate objects for each variation of size which is impractical. NCC worked with Autodesk on a solution that provides parametric objects, modelled in Inventor and resizable in Infraworks.

The new workflow reduces NCC process times by about 15%, but more importantly, it offers several new tools to create 3D models using a variety of 2D/3D data and to visualise, simulate, communicate and gather comments.It shows existing conditions to visualise complexity during site layout planning.It also provides a simple interface and easy access to predefined objects, which is crucial for implementing this solution across NCC.

In this class, NCC will share their experience of creating construction site layout plans using Infraworks.
