The only difference between the multi-dimensional WBS and generic coding structures lies in their links to one another. (See the work of Jean Yves Moine) IF all you do is create coding structures but there is no relationship or connection between them, then all you have are a bunch of sort codes. But when you structure them TOGETHER (through the activities or lower levels of the WBS) now you start to see and analyze relationships BETWEEN them....... i.e. just like you can analyze float in two dimensions using the forward pass/backwards pass information, picture if you will being able to analyze the distance between any two or more activities not in a SINGLE dimension but in THREE dimensions.
