Course Overview
This course is suitable for learners who wish to develop competent skills in 4D BIM, particularly for using Synchro Pro to animate and visualize construction progress. Learners will understand the fundamentals of using Synchro Pro, and the basic 4D BIM workflow which includes importing 3D models and schedule, creating resources from 3D objects, creating appearance profiles and assigning resources tasks. By the end of the training, learners will be able to create 4D BIM models and export the sequenced images or animations for review and presentation purposes. Importantly, this course draws on the fundamentals of construction planning, such as Synchro Pro’s relation to a Primavera P6 schedule, and how it links a BIM model to the concept of time. To help users navigate a BIM environment where there are competing products, they will also learn the general concept of using Synchro Pro with various types of BIM modelling tools (e.g. Revit, AECOsim), understand Synchro Pro’s limitations in order to manage needs and expectations, and also compare Synchro Pro against other types of 4D BIM software available.
