Designing in Three Dimensions for Manufacturing Facilities
Du Pont Engineering is using Three-Dimensional Design for the design of our manufacturing facilities. Our 3D design system was used on several projects in 1992, and full implementation...
Knowledge and Information Processing with Drawing Objects in Construction Phase
Knowledge processing by CAD systems poses challenging problems for the efficient integration of design and construction processes. While CAD systems have been applied to various phases...
Finite Element Analysis and Design of Bridges with Applicatrons of ICAD
This paper describes applications of client-server models, interprocess communications (IPC), and concepts of intelligent CAD (ICAD) to the interactive design and analysis of highway bridge...
3D Template of Human Figure for CG Animation in Design
It has become commonplace to use computer graphics (CG) animation in architectural and landscape design. Historically, CG animation has been employed primarily as one of many presentation...
Integrated Resident Management Support
Lack of a common data standard among all construction field offices has added cost to overall U.S. Army Corps of Engineers automation efforts. The creation of a common resident office...
ICPS: Integrated Construction Planning System by Object-Oriented Planning Models
Knowledge processing for integrated building system planning and construction system planning poses challenging problems to integrate design and construction process efficiently. While...
The Design Navigator
A building design system has no bridge the gap between the complexity of the design information, resulting from the artifact itself, the large amount of laws, regulations, and restrictions,...

Joint work in progress by John A. Martin and Associates and International Conference of Building Officials to develop an electronic building code information system is presented. This...
A Multimedia Information System for Buildings and Campuses
A multimedia information system currently under development for storage and retrieval of site and building related information is presented. The system is being designed with university...
Interdisciplinary Communication of Design Critique in the Conceptual Design Stage
Computer tools provide little support for the communication of design concepts and problems across disciplines. Our objective is to help bridge the communication gap between architects...
Agent-Based Technology for Facility Design Software Integration
The application of a novel technology called Agent-Based Software Engineering to facility design software integration is presented. The technology is founded on the notion of design agents...
Architecture of an Object-Oriented Product Model Prototype for Integrated Building Design
The proposed integrated building design system consists of a product modeling framework represented by a general product model and several partial knowledge bases, a conventional CAD system,...
Knowledge Mapping for Facility Scope Modeling
This paper demonstrated how knowledge mapping can be applied to develop standard scope templates for facility scope management. We first develop several examples to illustrate this idea....
Conceptual Cost Estimating: A Hybrid Neural-Expert System Approach
This paper presents a hybrid neural-expert system approach for developing conceptual cost estimates based on historical data of construction projects. The proposed hybrid neural-expert...
