Partial contents:
Introduction: collaborative construction information management ? evolution and revolution -- Collaboration: a technology or human interface problem?-- Potential obstacles to using BIM in architectural design -- Collaboration using BIM: results of Cooperative Research Centre for Construction Innovation projects -- Process modelling for planning, managing and control of collaborative design -- Combining 3D models and simulations to meet the design challenges of the twenty-first century -- Digital design collaboration: from BIM to BKM ? enhancing human creativity -- Towards a multi-agent approach for knowledge-based virtual construction -- Update on the Swire Properties Hong Kong One Island East Tower BIM success story -- IKEA pattern and revolution of the construction industry -- Improving information delivery -- Applying process rigour to the use of BIM in building design teams: a review of three technologies -- Building information modelling in material take-off in a Hong Kong project -- A data-centric, process-orientated model for effective collaborative working -- Supporting collective knowledge creation in digitally mediated collaborative environments -- The use of 3D computer visualisation methods in value management briefing and design studies: the case for rapid prototyping and the impact on industry structure -- Accelerating collaboration: soft system imperatives for mobilising hard system developments -- The construction game
Summary: This eBook provides insights by an international group of leading scholars and professionals into the potential use, development and limitations of current collaborative technologies and practices. Material is grouped around the six themes - key issues in collaborative working, advanced technologies for collaborative working, virtual prototyping in design and construction, building information modeling, managing the collaborative processes, and human issues in collaborative working. Researchers and practitioners in the building and construction industry as well as graduate students should find this a valuable reference.
