The adoption of the methodology outlined in this book allows clients to clearly define and communicate their requirements and expectations for a given project to construction industry professionals.
This book gathers the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of information technology in civil and building engineering, presented at the 19th International Conference on Computing in Civil and Building Engineering (ICCCBE), held in Cape Town, South Africa on October 26-28, 2022. It covers highly diverse topics such as BIM, construction information modeling, knowledge management, GIS, GPS, laser scanning, sensors, monitoring, VR/AR, computer-aided construction, product and process modeling, big data and IoT, cooperative design, mobile computing, simulation, structural health monitoring, computer-aided structural control and analysis, ICT in geotechnical engineering, computational mechanics, asset management, maintenance, urban planning, facility management, and smart cities. Written by leading researchers and engineers, and selected by means of a rigorous international peer-review process, the contributions highlight numerous exciting ideas that will spur novel research directions and foster multidisciplinary collaborations.
This book covers recent advances in simultaneous engineering and contemporary issues related to the development and implementation of successful systems. The scope of material includes recent research related to simultaneous engineering problem-solving architectures, organizational issues, tools and techniques of simultaneous engineering, design methods, and application of artificial intelligence and numeric tools.
Contains some 150 papers from the June 1996 congress examining computing applications in civil engineering practice and education as well as advanced computing theory and technologies. Looks at applications in areas such as construction, geotechnical engineering, and transportation, and applications of the Internet, the WWW, and multimedia in civil engineering and geographic information systems. Other subjects include risk and reliability assessment and management; visualization, modeling, and simulation; artificial intelligence and advanced computing; and interoperability. No index.

Concurrent engineering is concerned with how to respond to the ever-increasing intensity of competitive pressures (reducing time-to-market and product introduction costs) experienced in today's global market for the long-term benefit of the manufacturing companies themselves and for the customers they serve. This book brings together the rationale, planning and implementation of concurrent engineering. It also highlights teamwork as a critical success factor for effective concurrent engineering, and investigates the importance of the customer and the market-place.
