4D Tool - How to create dynamically linked 4D
model?
Step 1:
Design the product (building, bridge, piping
etc.) in 3D with an IFC compliant object-oriented platform (for instance,
Archicad 6.5). Export the 3D geometry in IFC 2.0 format.
Step 2:
Create the assembly/construction schedule of the
product (with MS Project at the moment).
Step 3:
Link the 3D objects and corresponding tasks using
4D Linker provided by VTT
and Eurostep. Save this 4D
information as an IFC file.

Step 4:
Using the 4D Converter create vrml
model of the IFC objects.

Step 5:
Analyse the assembly/construction process using WebSTEP
tool through a standard web browser. Make necessary changes to the 3D
model and schedule. Update the changes semi-automatically using 4D Linker.

Hints:
-
If the vr-model 'disappears', push
the
button.
-
If the model is in weird position,
push the
button.
