Abstract: The precast process is divided into three sub-processes; design, erection and production. Design is giving birth to the precast process with a rough 3D model. When planning the process is reversed so that it starts with the planning of the erection on site and step backwards to the time for production and the time for delivery of detailed shop- drawings.
By doing this planning in a shared Building Information Modelling (BIM) platform in real time all three sub-processes get the correct priority for the main process the project on site.
The site project planners use the 3D model when they make the rough planning on the design structure. They start by setting the planned erection date and then step backwards through the planned delivery date, planned storage date, planned production date and planned drawing delivery date.
The planned production date gives production the time frames when they need to deliver the manufactured elements and the planned drawing date gives design the information when the shop-drawings needs to be ready so that the production can produce the elements in time.
