OUR APPROACH
Digital rehearsal
Digital rehearsal optimises how we plan the construction phase of our projects. It aligns design with the construction programme and drives collaboration between people and technology, enabling project teams to rehearse the construction sequence at the right time with the right set of people to identify the best sequence in terms of safety, supply-chain, operational site interfaces and temporary works logistics. Designers get a better understanding of buildability and construction teams understand the specification and any client operational constraints.
Case study: Hallbank Tunnel
Hallbank involved a short shutdown of an aqueduct supplying 2.5 million customers with 570 million litres of water a day. After nearly two years of main works, our client handed the entire site over to us to complete the connections. At its peak, 90 engineers on round-the-clock shifts worked at each connection. We developed a highly detailed 4D model that facilitated collaborative rehearsals with the team and ensured the operation was meticulously planned. The connections were a success, and the site was handed back to our client early.
The 4D model maximised efficiency and supported collaboration between the design and construction teams. The model also helped to identify temporary works and process constraints, beyond the realm of 3D clash detection.
Case study: Embsay Water Treatment Works
During the investigation and tender stage at Embsay, SYNCHRO 4D was used to create a digital rehearsal to better understand sequencing on an extremely tight site. Outputs from the rehearsal led directly to programme updates, saving 10 weeks and over £100,000 in preliminary site costs.
