摘要：

The focus in this paper is on a system, developed by the writers, called VIRCON (short for VIRtual CONstruction), in which the traditional construction planning is combined with 3D/4D models of the project. To facilitate current best practices with 3D/4D models of the project. VIRCON has been implemented using object-oriented programming, client/server configuration, database management information, and CAD systems. The real innovation in the design of VIRCON is associated with the unique scheduling and simulation engine developed to integrate cost planning and scheduling and accommodate integrated cross-impact analysis. VIRCON has been validated by means of student group projects on a course where many of the project management techniques are being taught. The teaching approach conducted with the utilization of VIRCON has shown the way forward in creating a dynamic and interactive learning atmosphere. This paper also outlines the experience gained from teaching construction planning fundamentals by means of the VIRCON system.
