Abstract

The development of a flexible and comprehensive data structure for product models for serving all possible downstream applications in CIC environments have been the subject of research for many years. Although, international initiatives have been established such as STEP and IAI/IFCs, these standards have been setup to mainly act as a common platform for project data exchange only. Thus, the integration of project information between construction applications has not been fully addressed. This paper discusses the SPACE approach to integrating project data cross its life cycle. It firstly explains the building data model which supports the building design information and secondly it outlines the interaction between the building data model and the other application models in the form of EXPRESS-G diagrams. This integration approach currently supports five application; specification, construction planning, site layout planning, interim valuation and virtual reality.
