Abstract
This paper presents a case study of integrated data exchange
between the different participants in a building project - the
main contractor and the companies representing the different
design disciplines (architectural design, structural engineering
and HVAC & E engineering). The focus is on the needs of
the main contractor in "Design and Construct" type of projects,
especially in the early cost estimation and tendering
stages of a building project. The system is utilised in real-life
building projects. The paper deals with three main aspects in
the data communication context: (1) the logical contents and
structure of the building information; (2) the representation of
the building information in a data exchange format; and (3)
network connections and procedures.
