Construction model is combination of structural and architectural project
Architectural model
It is to model the walls
Modelling of windown, doors
Its to align the materials
In architectural is to model the architectural floors , roofs and stairs
Its to give architectural openings
Structural model
Its to model coloumns,beams,footings
And modelling of strucyural floors and labs
Modellig of connections are done
In combined mode it allows to work together and is achieved by linked elements , these project elements are seperated individually
Various members can work together such as plumbing,mechanical,architectural and structural
The total no of people working depends on the type of the project
