  1. 1. Developing a collaborative planning tool for construction - A Building Information Model-enhanced planning and scheduling tool for production

    Author : Mikael Viklund Tallgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Collaborative planning process; BIM; Construction Informatics; Information Technology in construction; Design Science;

    Abstract : Construction projects are becoming increasingly complex with a higher degree of specialization, resulting in more sub-contractors as well as in more information needed in the project. This results in a bigger project organization with an increased need for information exchange, an area where construction has been criticized by academics. READ MORE

  2. 2. A process model for work-flow management in construction

    Author : Rogier Jongeling; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Byggproduktion; Construction Engineering and Management;

    Abstract : This thesis describes a novel approach for management of work-flow in construction, based on the combination of location-based scheduling and modelling with 4D CAD. Construction planners need to carefully design a process that ensures a continuous and reliable flow of resources through different locations in a project. READ MORE

  3. 3. On Brownfield Layout Planning

    Author : Daniel Nåfors; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; factory layout planning; Production systems; digitalisation; Industry 4.0; decision support; manufacturing systems;

    Abstract : As manufacturing companies strive to increase productivity and decrease waste, to stay competitive in an increasingly global and digitalised context, their production system must improve. Improvements to production systems can be achieved in many ways, including increased levels of automation, improved product and process flows and improved scheduling. READ MORE

  4. 4. Bottom-Up Modeling of Building Stock Dynamics - Investigating the Effect of Policy and Decisions on the Distribution of Energy and Climate Impacts in Building Stocks over Time

    Author : Claudio Nägeli; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; synthetic building stock; agent-based modeling; Building stock modeling; renewable energy; building stock dynamics; energy efficiency; GHG emissions;

    Abstract : In Europe, residential and commercial buildings are directly and indirectly responsible for approximately 30–40% of the overall energy demand and emitted greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. A large share of these buildings was erected before minimum energy-efficiency standards were implemented and are therefore not energy- or carbon-efficient. READ MORE

  5. 5. Neutral intelligent CAD communication : information exchange in construction based upon a minimal schema

    Author : Väino Tarandi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : An improved information exchange is frequently proposed asone solution to the inefficiency problems which theconstruction industry is suffering from today. Such animprovement is very dependent of the use of informationtechnology, IT. READ MORE
