FAQS

Find answers

SYNCHRO 4D is used to create time‑based (4D) construction models that connect the project schedule with a 3D model for better planning, visualization, and coordination.

4D construction scheduling links project tasks to 3D model components so teams can visualize how a project will be built over time.

4D simulation helps stakeholders make better decisions by visually showing construction sequence, risks, conflicts, and potential delays before work happens on site.

Clash detection software identifies and reports conflicts or interferences between building components in a digital model before construction begins. SYNCHRO provides a dedicated 3D model clash workflow that helps teams quickly detect, manage, and resolve these issues within their BIM models.

Construction scheduling and planning software improves projects by increasing predictability, optimizing resources, reducing rework, and enhancing coordination across teams.

Yes, SYNCHRO 4D supports direct import of IFC models in versions 2x, 2x2, 2x3, and 4, and it can export IFC models in versions 2x, 2x2, and 2x3.
