Integrated Construction Information (Hardcover)

The construction industry is an information-intensive sector and low levels of productivity are often blamed on inadequate integration of information. This edited volume documents the latest worldwide research and most innovative practice in the integration of construction information. It shows how the different types and sources of information can be integrated - not only on individual construction projects, but also within construction companies and in the construction industry at a worldwide level. With 24 contributions from international research groups from nine countries, a range of applications is demonstrated - from architectural design and environmental management to projects co-ordination and cost estimation. It provides a contribution to the analysis of productivity and industry performance by - drawing directly for internationally collaborative research projects; considering the history if integration alongside current technologies; and indicating practical systems and solutions. This book should be of interest to libraries and researchers in both construction management and information technology; and larger architectural, surveying and engineering firms.
