Course Overview
Digital twins are virtual representations of physical
assets, processes, or systems. By using digital twin, you can:
1. Visualise and Optimise 3D Structures
Using digital twin , you can create a 3D blueprint of your
construction site or building, allowing you to visualise the final
product before it's even built. This helps you identify and resolve issues
early, reducing costly rework.
2. Streamline Panelised Systems
Digital twin can verify the placement of complex building
panel assemblies, ensuring zero room for error and enabling you to optimise
your production processes.
3. Enhance 3D Printing Training
Digital twin can be used to train technicians on the use of
3D construction printing technology, allowing them to gain hands-on
experience in a safe, virtual environment before working on the actual
project.
4. Expedite Prefabricated Modular Construction
Digital twin can be used to quickly assemble and verify
prefabricated modular units, reducing time, cost, and waste on-site.
5. Optimise Processes and Ensure Quality
By creating digital twins of your production processes, you
can identify and address inefficiencies, reduce waste, and ensure consistent
quality.
Learning Objectives
- Understand the use of Digital Twin process with the digital
capture and application
- Basic understanding of what Digital Twin technology is.
- How the technology can benefit the construction industry.
- How a company could go about implementing the technology as
part of their services.
