N2 - As part of the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry, heavy civil engineering with its equipment-intensive processes is a current focus of discussion concerning emission reduction. Adopting Industry 4.0 technologies for resource scheduling can significantly increase the savings potential significantly. One of these digital technologies is the Discrete Event Simulation (DES). DES is a proven tool to analyze complex systems in advance but is not widely used in practice. Therefore, the presented work aims at presenting a three-part hybrid simulation framework. One part of the framework, the meso-simulation, has been evaluated using a case study in the field of pile drilling production. The work not only captures the drilling process, and therefore shows the importance of planning the secondary processes in AEC.
