Nolan calls the increasing use of visualization with 4D scheduling models a "technological gold rush" — not just for use on jobs but on construction delay claims.

After running 4D simulations, TIC planners realized the schedule needed modification to keep activities vertically separated, resulting in a longer duration than originally expected.
