The Main Contractor for Yas Mall required the construction sequencing to be studied in more detail with regard to the validity of the program of works and the potential logistical restraints that are not clear or apparent in a 2D medium. The project was 3D modeled and then interrogated to establish a valid 4D Model and Program Sequence, proving, through virtual Construction, that the Methodology for structural systems was valid and achievable.
