The past few years has seen a growing interest from the design and construction community to adopt these tools. As many project teams are realizing, implementing 3D and 4D modeling on an actual project is a complicated process that requires a coordinated effort. No guidelines currently exist on using these tools in a multi-disciplinary and multi-organizational environment and project teams are forced to figure this out on their own in real time as the project progresses. This paper addresses this shortcoming by providing guidelines that describe how to overcome the technical, procedural and organizational issues confronted by project teams as they undertake this new way of working. Specifically, the paper describes different approaches for assembling a project team to leverage these technologies, the modeling requirements for implementing 3D and 4Dprojects, the 3D and 4D modeling processes, the benefits and shortcomings of the process and technologies, the effect of these technologies on the project's outcome, and the lessons learned. This paper is intended for industry professionals interested in pursuing this type of innovative project delivery. This paper will also be of interest to researchers as it illustrates the limitations of emerging 3D and 4D technologies.  \nKEYWORDS: 3D model, 4D model, computer aided design (CAD), virtual design and construction, virtual building technologies, design coordination, MEP coordination, construction scheduling.  \n1. INTRODUCTION  \nIn recent years, we have seen significant improvements in the tools available to model a construction project using 3D and 4D technologies. Current 3D modeling tools offer pre-defined objects that facilitate the development, routing, and connection of building systems in 3D, and provide conflict detection mechanisms that help to automatically identify physical interferences between components. 4D modeling tools link a project’s scope in 3D with the construction schedule to graphically simulate the construction process. Many research efforts have discussed the potential of these tools to significantly improve design coordination and construction execution. However, implementing 3D and 4D modeling on an actual project in a multidisciplinary and multi-organizational environment is a complicated process that requires a coordinated effort. There are a variety of technical, procedural, and organizational issues that must be addressed, which might explain their limited use. Moreover, there is little research that critiques these tools in the context of project teamwork on actual projects. Yet, without demonstrating their benefits and providing guidelines for implementation, it is difficult for practitioners to invest the resources necessary to adopt these technologies. In practice, 3D and 4D technologies have been applied on a variety of construction projects. Prior research efforts have compiled detailed case studies that assess the benefits and limitations of these tools and their impact on project performance (Fischer and Haymaker 2001, Staub-French and Fisher 2001, Kam et al., 2003) . Researchers have also critiqued the functionality of 3D and 4D technologies to meet the needs of industry (McKinney and Fischer 1998, Songer et al, 1998, Koo and Fischer 2000, Heesom and Mahdjuobi 2004) .
