Laing O’Rourke – Liverpool, Merseyside, United Kingdom

The new home of Everton F.C. in the Premier League is being built on an existing dock on the River Mersey, where the design team faced tight logistical confinements that necessitated complicated off-site prefabrication works. Laing O’Rourke used SYNCHRO to improve communication and planning during the development of the 52,888-seat football stadium. The 4D model was fundamental to the team’s collaboration, enabling multiple disciplines to work together to submit the project ahead of schedule and within budget.
