ConstructSim is a revolutionary program that optimizes your project through the planning, sequencing, execution and monitoring of construction activities from within a virtual plant model. ConstructSim links together project IT systems including: the 3D CAD model (all major formats: AutoPLANT, PDS, PDMS, etc.); schedule; materials management system; project controls databases and others to create an integrated virtual environment that is constantly up-to-date.
This integrated virtual environment enables the following functionality within ConstructSim:
Virtual Walk Throughs
4D (3D + time) Schedule Simulations
Automated Construction Material Take-Offs
Automated Detail Task List Generation
Life Cycle Status Tracking (color coding material availability and progress by area, system, spool/sheet, piece mark, task, etc.)
Pipe and Steel Work Packaging at Weekly Crew Level
Generic Work Packs for Other Disciplines (E&I, Civil, Mechanical) that take advantage of the database more than the virtual plant model
Pipe and Steel Change Order Impact Analysis
Tracking of the Design Changes Back to the Model
8-Week Look Ahead Planner/Constraint Analysis and Crew Planning
Weld Tracking QA/QC (Beta)
Crane and Scaffold Simulation/Crew Density Analysis (*Beta development)
Many EPC firms have spent millions of dollars and many years developing in-house construction automation systems that offer only a portion of the functionality provided by ConstructSim. The implementation of ConstructSim on your project will improve productivity by providing the following benefits:
Improved constructability analysis, interactive planning and coordination between engineering office and site field office using Virtual Plant Model
Visually plan more optimal pipe installation and hydro test work crew packages
Streamline material, equipment and sequencing
Reduce rework/out-of sequence work
Automated task estimates/automate data entry
Speed time to start-up by systems tracking
Better predictability of where you are on the project
Reduce time looking for information via visually monitoring the status of engineering, materials and construction execution progress
