Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Having been a Planner for 12 years on P6, MSP and Pertmaster I feel that the future of Planning is the move towards 4D Planning and its incorporation into Gantt and Site Planning.

 

Having no prior experience of 4D Planning as within the UK from trying to attend Training courses and organisations that have adopted the practice it still seems in its infancy. What would be the best way to upskill in 4D Planning / BIM and do you feel that Synchro would be the best software to train in?

 

Any other tips on entering the 4D Planning world would be greatly appreciated :)

 

Thanks,

3D model can be used as an initial information for planning and scheduling.

The results of project planning and scheduling can be presented as 4D and 5D reports together with Gantt Charts, Time-Location Charts, etc.

The scheduling itself does not depend on the ways of getting initial data and presenting project schedule and budget.
