Monitoring of the construction site using an information model

BIM technologies are an integral part of the modern building process. In order to approach the complex implementation of BIM, it is necessary to use not only the 3D modeling process. The next step is to generate a 4D model based on the 3D model and work schedule. Russian construction companies implementing BIM are beginning to implement 4D models not only during the design phase but also during the construction phase. This article shows the principle of control of the construction site due to the information model. The most common software applications are identified. Their main characteristics are clarified and also in what situations the software applications can be used to organize the most effective work.
