Model based construction progress tracking

[Florian Lohberger]

hi all,

we are looking for a way to get a workflow to get the status of construction progress per element (e.g. wall; concrete done, insulation done, plaster done, paint done,...) into the model to visualise progress in the model.
Anyone can point us in the direction how that can be done with a Archicad model?

Thanks!

BR, Florian

i think the easiest way to do it is to combine the Construction Simulation feature in ARCHICAD with Property attribute

you can create custom properties such as:
start date
duration
end date
construction status
use formula to determine the status, something like: "if current date <= end date = "DONE"

extract those properties on a schedule

Thanks for the hint - but how can I, standing in the construction site with my tablet/ phone, how can I edit these attributes?

Hi, 

I'm trying to find a solution for this too, 

So far, the best way is to use excel on a tablet and check items manually , 

OR

use an IFC viewer that can edit ifc properties , select item in the model, change it's statut, and send back to Archicad, 

Did you find a better workflow ?
