Project description

This project involves the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) to improve the design and construction process. It examines information flows using models and virtual environments to support design and construction planning for building and civil works. The innovation in this project is to employ object models throughout the information flow process to enable tracking of the development of information through the design process (through virtual environments) leading into the pre-construction process (through estimating and scheduling software). The initial focus of the post-design process for building projects is on the building core and structure. This will be expanded in the later stages according to the interests of the industry partners. The initial focus for civil projects is on the support for e-commerce and e-projects for less sophisticated models. Harmonisation of building and civil models will be undertaken for architectural, structural, hydraulic and site works models.
