CONCLUSION
INTRODUCTION
 Construction projects have a significant amount of
Temporary Facilities.
 Temporary Facilities on site requires safety and
security.
INTRODUCTION
Temporary Facilities (TF)
 Office Accommodations
Reception, General Office, Engineers Office,
Project Managers Office etc.
 Welfare Facilities Accommodations
Canteen, Toilets, Showers, Drying Rooms etc.
 Storage Accommodation
Valuable and Hazardous Materials storage
GROWTH AND WASTE
 Layout must be planned and executed before the
start of construction works.
 Conflicts must be avoided.
GROWTH AND WASTE
Benefits of Good Quality Planning
 Travel time can be minimized
 In order to ensure site safety and productive working
chaotic sites must be avoided.
CAD MODELLING
 Construction sites can be modelled as a set of
interrelated objects
 The relationships between the temporary and
permanent facilities becomes clear.
 Feedback continuous and models can be updated
CAD MODELLING
Main components of construction set:
 Site Objects
(Existing buildings, structures, power lines)
 Construction Objects
(Temporary Facilities such as site accommodation,
storage space, workrooms, plant rooms, parking
facilities)
 Constraint Objects
4-D LAYOUT AND SCHEDULING
 4D modelling system is an application that allows
you to create and see the construction schedule of
your project all at the same time.
 Construction projects are complex, and modeling
software helps project managers anticipate and plan
for delays and miss calculations.
4-D LAYOUT AND SCHEDULING
Importance of 4-D
 This system allow the users to visualize the status of
the project at any stage of construction process.
 Allow an intelligent and interactive 4D visualization
of space usage throughout the duration of the
construction period.
4-D LAYOUT AND SCHEDULING
Key Benefits of 4-D
 Space utilization inside multi-storey buildings is
enabled and the efficiency of projects is greatly
enhanced.
 Schedule data is provided at much greater speeds
than was previously available.
 Consistency between schedules and 3-D models are
achieved by ensuring that data exchange between
the scheduling and CAD libraries.
VISULIZATION
Most construction projects still rely heavily on paper
based communication of technical material in the
form of working drawings.
VISULIZATION
 Planning staff of the construction contractor may be
required to interpret this information and then, assuming
unlimited resources (men, machines and materials)
formulate some type of scheduling scheme for the project
 The schedule is then refined using knowledge of working
capacities and outputs and the site layout is decided at this
stage and tends to be largely dependent on the project
working schedule
VISULIZATION
 3-D geometrical model of a construction project
(inclusive of all Temporary Facilities) is prepared at
the same time as the planning engineers construct
the associated construction schedule and a 4-D site
management model is implemented which then has
the functionality of being able to perform site
management functions over the spatial and temporal
domains
VISULIZATION
 4-D Site Management Model incorporates the whole
spectrum of site management activities
incorporating, construction planning, resource
analysis, site layout generation and management,
material allocation and cost control
VISULIZATION
Key Features of Visualization
 Conventional site planning
 Representation of 3D geometrical model
 4D visualization
 Integration of symbolic and graphical data
 Linkage between geometrical model and schedule
CONCLUSIONS
 Commercially developed software that integrates
management techniques with the ongoing progress
of construction contracts is now becoming widely
available
 the planning of the layout of the construction village
is now recognized as having a significant bearing on
the profitability of construction contracts
CONCLUSIONS
 As margins have become ever tighter (2-3% is not
considered unusual) focus has shifted to ensuring that
every aspect of the construction contract is planned and
executed efficiently
 The planning systems would be of great benefit in achieving
cost control and it would seem likely that the capital cost of
implementing such a system, in a large organization, would
be recouped very quickly
