Parametric modeling and project management systems Kolb, Daniel

Abstract

A view missing from virtually all project management systems used in construction is the physical view of what is being built. This thesis describes several of the design features of a parametric modeling module capable of providing such a view. The use of this module for supporting a diverse range of project management functions is also described. A case study was conducted on an actual highrise project for the purpose of exploring the actual practices and demonstrate the benefits that may be gained from supporting a physical view of a project.
