Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (B) Construction schedule; Construction costing

Explanation

A 3D model represents geometry; 4D links its elements to time and construction sequencing; 5D links costs and quantities. Thus B. Higher-dimension labels can vary between frameworks, but the standard 4D-time and 5D-cost pairing is the one asked here.
