How to create a 4D BIM model based on the schedule from another software? Estimated reading: 1 minute 418 views When conducting quality control on a model for either internal or external purposes, generating a 4D/5D animation or optimizing a schedule, 4D BIM model can be created based on the schedule from another software and all tasks linked with BIM model elements. To create a 4D BIM model based on the schedule from another software follow the next steps: STEP 1: Import the schedule and the model into BEXEL Manager. STEP 2: Automated validation of property required for smart linking of elements with activities. STEP 3: Create a custom breakdown structure based on the structure of the schedule. STEP 4: Create smart selection sets based on the created custom breakdown for the purpose of linking the model with the schedule. STEP 5: Link selection sets with the schedule. STEP 6: Edit existing schedule if necessary. STEP 7: Create a 4D animation.
