Download or read book Building Information Systems in the Construction Industry written by A. Galiano Garrigos and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The selected papers in this book deal with Building Information Modelling (BIM) in Design, Construction and Operations. Application of BIM throughout the construction industry is progressing at an accelerated rate, with the development of new software tools. BIM has the potential to alter the way in which different specialities interact before, during and after the construction project. BIM carries the data set for a particular asset through its full life cycle which has important consequences for operations and maintenance as well as for infrastructure planning. BIM emergence has been the result of advanced surveying techniques, powerful computer systems, better visualisation tools and new communication infrastructures. The papers included in this book demonstrate the interdisciplinary character of BIM, bringing together contributions from experts in industry, practice and academia.

Book Synopsis Integrated Management Systems for Construction by : Alan Griffith
Download or read book Integrated Management Systems for Construction written by Alan Griffith and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated management systems (IMS) are an innovative way of handling the plethora of management functions and procedures that are applied throughout major construction projects. Contracting companies use management systems to shape and define the corporate arrangement of their business activities, translating these into operational procedures for application to the construction projects they undertake. The management of quality, environment, and safety are at the forefront of systems evolution where the integration of these traditionally independent and dedicated standards-based and process-orientated systems can provide the potential to deliver greater organisational efficiency and effectiveness. This is the first textbook to cover each of the international standards for quality, safety and environment (ISO9000, ISO14001 and ISO18001) and to discuss integrating them. This book provides a detailed yet accessible text to support the study of quality, environment, and safety management systems on professionally accredited undergraduate courses throughout the built environment and for advanced postgraduate courses in construction, project, and engineering management. It is also an indispensible reference for construction professionals working for principal contractors, subcontractors and construction industry supply chain organisations.
Book Synopsis Working Knowledge by : Thomas H. Davenport
Download or read book Working Knowledge written by Thomas H. Davenport and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2000-04-26 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This influential book establishes the enduring vocabulary and concepts in the burgeoning field of knowledge management. It serves as the hands-on resource of choice for companies that recognize knowledge as the only sustainable source of competitive advantage going forward. Drawing from their work with more than thirty knowledge-rich firms, Davenport and Prusak--experienced consultants with a track record of success--examine how all types of companies can effectively understand, analyze, measure, and manage their intellectual assets, turning corporate wisdom into market value. They categorize knowledge work into four sequential activities--accessing, generating, embedding, and transferring--and look at the key skills, techniques, and processes of each. While they present a practical approach to cataloging and storing knowledge so that employees can easily leverage it throughout the firm, the authors caution readers on the limits of communications and information technology in managing intellectual capital.

Book Synopsis A Management Information System for Construction Management Lessons-Learned by : Paul L. Scott
Download or read book A Management Information System for Construction Management Lessons-Learned written by Paul L. Scott and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis was based on the hypothesis that Air Force Civil Engineering construction managers could lessen the impact of inexperience through the use of lessons-learned. The thesis examined the potential for developing an on-line management information system (MIS) to provide better storage and retrieval of lessons-learned. Emphasis was placed on developing a WANG-based system that would be accessible at all levels of Civil Engineering construction. Research consisted of reviewing MIS development methodologies, investigating several existing information systems - both general and lessons-learned oriented - and determining the user's requirements for the proposed MIS. The objective of this research was to identify factors and procedures that should be considered when developing a construction management oriented, lessons-learned management information system for the Civil Engineering WANG computer. The process involved reviewing pertinent literature, logging onto and using existing on-line information systems and interviewing construction managers at the MAJCOM and AFRCEs. Theses. (sdw).
