A 4D construction sequence: the build programme visualised against the model, phase by phase, so logistics and timeline can be seen before a component arrives on site.

Walkthrough

For the Royal Central School of Speech & Drama, OD3 produced a 4D construction sequence: the 3D model linked to the programme so the build plays out as an animation (substructure to frame to envelope) in the order and timing the schedule intends.

Seeing the programme

4D turns a Gantt chart into something a project team can actually see. Crane positions, delivery sequence, temporary works and trade overlap become obvious on screen, so clashes in the programme, not just the model, are caught and resolved while they are still cheap to change.

From model to method

The sequence below is that 4D animation. It doubles as a communication tool: a clear, shared picture of how the building comes together, for the client, the design team and the people who have to build it.

Outcome

A clear, shared view of the construction programme, with logistics and sequence understood before work began on site.
