Abstract
Great efforts have been devoted towards the development of a
flexible and comprehensive data structure for product models
to serve CIC environments. However, product models can't be
populated with project specific information without clearly
defined objects (elements) which are anticipated to be
transferred dynamically through an application to the central
core of the environment. This paper addresses the issue of
element definition within a proposed framework for an
Integrated Construction Environment (ICE). It briefly
discusses a proposed structure of an ICE and its main
components. The type of information which is attached to
objects during the creation stage, in a CAD environment, are
outlined.
