This application uses real-time 3D technology to replicate the construction site and provides an immersive representation of the real-world state of a project.

Here’s a challenge: How do you assemble data on a platform so construction teams may collaborate on designs and plannings virtually? How do you save resources, cut down on costs and all of which in a user-friendly environment?

The solution is called ToBe Builder and it allows for teams to aggregate design and construction information, test methodologies and design options, even run entire simulations to work out the best solutions before deploying to site.

Programme Support: ToBe Builder supports the import of linked active 4D programmes from Asta Powerproject BIM, and 2D schedule information from P6 and Microsoft Project. It also supports the import of model geometry from both ACC & Trimble Connect via a cloud conversion pipeline.

4.

Sequences: ToBe Builder supports the exporting of complex 4D camera sequences to movie format. Users can create a series of camera positions, and programme key timeframes on the sequences track, and then control the speed and duration of playback between each scene, creating complex scenarios for reviews, HAZOP or client presentations quickly and easily.

ToBe Maps AR: Augmented Reality (AR) refers to the use of mobile devices (smartphones, tablets and wearables) to overlay or superimpose 3D content on a camera feed of the real-world in real-time.

Economic: Improves understanding of time and costs which enables construction methods to be carefully reviewed and optimised, averting expensive conflicts and inefficiencies.

Targeted: Digital planning presents automation and efficiency opportunities in the scheduling of recurring tasks such as erecting fences, assembling scaffolding, or managing traffic control plans.
