Lets Build

CAD drawings are used during Level 0, but there is no sharing of the generated information models. Softwares like Aconex or Viewpoint can be used as the CDE. It’s the 4D (GenieBelt) which is related to time management and the 5D (Aconex) which is linked to the calculation of the budget. 4D : It is linked to time management.

Drawing based is centred on the ‘projection technique’ (i.e. orthogonal projection – what 2D technical drawings are ‘made’ from) a risky solution that requires high level of skills from the operators. Going drawingless is a a step towards it!
