4D OVERVIEW-2016
- 1. 4D SCHEDULING 4D visualization is used on many different types of projects from offshore projects to land based construction, shipyards, new builds, retrofit and overhauls of rigs, vessels Utilization of a 3D model to link to a project schedule provides a unique visualization of the project schedule sequencing of key events, milestones, tasks, build strategies and simultaneous activities before you strike the first arc.
- 2. 4D SCHEDULING The level of detail is only constrained by the amount of information that is desired all the way down to the part level. Animating the process flow to simulate the movements of assemblies and materials is common for this format. When used for BIM (Building Information Modeling) purposes, the project can be sequenced on a yard-wide scale to coordinate and validate assembly areas, process flows and materials staging.
- 3. 4D SCHEDULING For overhaul and retrofit projects where a 3D model may not be available, the critical areas can be modeled to validate multi discipline concurrent activities in a constrained schedule Concurrent hot work deck repairs and ballast tank coating safety validation
- 4. Offshore fresh water cooling conversion project 4D SCHEDULING Some of the benefits of utilizing the 3D model link to the project schedule Provides validation of the install sequence Maximizes resource loading and minimizes task congestion Provides efficient verification to follow on test and commissioning Allows for real-time task progress updates to clearly see the impact to the overall schedule
- 5. 4D SCHEDULING General walk-thru and validation of install sequence with 3 pipe teams
- 6. LEGEND DEMO ………………… FIT…………………….. WELD………………… SEDCO 707 4D SCHEDULING A visual representation of the scheduled dry dock activities can be highlighted in several ways. This sample uses a color code to represent the activities in the schedule to clearly see where the they are taking place and also identify any integrity issues with the hull structure.
