Opis

Bringing together aspects of efforts in building modelling from the early 1970s to the late 1990s, this text presents the concepts, technology, and methods used to work out what will become the building product model - a digital representation for architecture, civil engineering, and building construction. Organized into three sections (history, current tools and concepts, and existing efforts and research issues), this resource provides the field of building product modelling with a standard reference as well as a text for university courses.
