Construction rework accounts for billions of dollars in waste annually. By allowing the entire team to visualize the sequence before stepping foot on site, the Synchro Open Viewer helps catch sequencing errors early. For example, a foreman might realize that a steel beam arrives three weeks after the crane needed to lift it has left the site. Seeing this in 4D prevents that mistake.

The core function of the viewer is its ability to play the construction schedule (Gantt chart) in sync with the 3D model. Users can slide a timeline bar forward and backward to see exactly how the structure will look at any given point in the schedule. This helps identify clashes between cranes, material laydown areas, and active work zones. Construction rework accounts for billions of dollars in

It is vital for users to understand the distinction between the "Viewer" and the "Authoring" platforms (Synchro Pro or Synchro Enterprise).
Take basic dimensions directly from the model to verify clearances or material volumes.
