SMARTER PLANNING WITH 4D BIM - VISUALISE YOUR INSTALL

At BuildBIM, we use advanced 4D modeling tools like Bentley’s Synchro, Navisworks, and others to help clients and contractors plan, visualize, and manage construction projects more effectively.

​

We develop visualisations that are tailored to your requirements, whether for tender submissions, project management sequencing, or site logistics planning.

ÅŒTEPOTI ACC BUILDING 

CLIENT: NAYLOR LOVE

SECTOR: GOVERNMENT

SERVICES: 4D CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE 

SIZE: 8,700 M2

STATUS: COMPLETE

​

BuildBIM, in collaboration with Naylor Love and the Canterbury Safety Charter (BIMSafe), developed a comprehensive 4D construction sequence animation for the ÅŒtepoti ACC Building in Dunedin.

 

Partnering closely with Naylor Love, the primary contractor, we integrated 3D geometry into the project timeline. This integration provided a detailed, visual representation of the construction process, helping to identify potential health and safety risks, define exclusion zones, and address spatial constraints.

​

The animation specifically highlighted the installation process for key structural elements, including steel components, precast panels, precast concrete floor ribs, and façade glazing panels. This enhanced 4D visualization facilitated better planning, risk management, and coordination throughout the project lifecycle.
