Messner3  \nABSTRACT  \n4D CAD technologies (combining the 3D CAD models and construction time) provide the opportunity for students to more effectively visualize the built environment and gain experience and intuition related to construction method selection, construction sequencing, site planning, and site logistics. This paper focuses on a 4D CAD problem-based learning module that was developed and incorporated into an advanced project management course. The learning activity was modeled from an actual project, the MGM Grand Hotel Renovation in Las Vegas, Nevada. Students develop a Short Interval Production Scheduling (SIPS) for constructing the precast concrete structural system for a typical floor of the hotel. During the last offering of the course, a 3D model of a typical floor of the building and a schedule template were provided to the students so they could link the SIPS they developed with the 3D model in a 4D CAD application. The students could then review their solution and present it to their classmates and the instructor in the Immersive Construction (ICon) Lab on a large display system. A survey was conducted to assess the value of 4D CAD used in the assignment. The survey results show that the students perceive that the 4D CAD modeling portion of the exercise improved their understating of the SIPS process since they were able to communicate with their group members more efficiently, easily review their developed schedule, and present their solutions to the class and the instructor in a more interactive manner. From the research, the authors conclude that 4D CAD can be an effective learning aid for students to better achieve learning outcomes.  \nKEY WORDS  \n4D CAD, Engineering Education, Short Interval Production Scheduling (SIPS), Problem Based Learning.  \n1. INTRODUCTION  \n4D CAD technology is a powerful tool that combines a 3D CAD model with construction time. There are many studies that have identified benefits of 4D CAD modeling in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) Industry (Fischer et al. 2003; Koo and Fischer 2000) . 4D CAD modeling allows project teams to visualize construction plans;  \n1 Graduate Research Assistant, Dept. of Architectural Engineering, Penn State, 104 Engineering Unit A, University Park, PA 16802 USA, Phone 814/865-5022, [luw113@psu.edu](luw113@psu.edu)  \n2 Graduate Research Assistant, Dept. of Architectural Engineering, Penn State, 104 Engineering Unit A, University Park, PA 16802 USA, Phone 814/865-5022, [zolotov@psu.edu](zolotov@psu.edu)  \n3 Assistant Professor, Dept. of Architectural Engineering, Penn State, 104 Engineering Unit A, University Park, PA 16802 USA, Phone 814/865-4578, [jmessner@engr.psu.edu](jmessner@engr.psu.edu)  \nJoint International Conference on Computing and Decision Making in Civil and Building Engineering June 14-16, 2006-Montréal, Canada  \nidentify construction consequences and space conflicts; identify safety issues; and improve communication of the project team members. For example, the 4D CAD model built for the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles helped the construction team find many schedule inconsistencies; resolve access, scaffolding and hoisting issues for the exterior and interior construction in a timely manner; inform more stakeholders of the approach to construction and of the schedule; and engage subcontractors in the scheduling process (Fischer et al. 2003) . 4D modeling can also be valuable for production planning and trade sequencing (Riley 2000) .  \nWith successful applications of 4D CAD in the industry, it is feasible that 4D CAD maybe very beneficial in construction engineering education.
