營建工程資訊運籌管理系統之研究(2/2)─子計畫一:規畫設計與施工圖說資訊交換標準與機制之研究

Construction Industry has long suffered
from its fragmented production along the
project delivery process. Furthermore, the
lack of standards for data exchange and the
reliance on paper-based documentation have
caused problems for construction industry in
exchanging and sharing engineering
information between different phases of a
construction project. In recent years, to
address the above issues and to continuously
improve construction productivity and quality
along the life-cycle of engineering facility,
CALS (Computer-aided Acquisition and Lifecycle
Support) strategy has become an
important research subject in many developed
countries, such as United States, Canada,
United Kingdom, Norway, Germany, Japan,
etc.
The present work is one of the five subprojects
of an integrated project, which studies
the applications of CALS technology to
construction industry. The focus of this work
is placed on the standards and mechanisms for
exchanging engineering drawing and
document information during the phases of
planning, design, and construction. Two ISO
standards, STEP and SGML, as well as two
industry standards, IFC and XML, are
investigated carefully and then serve as the
foundation for exchanging engineering
information. A prototype integrated
document information sharing system for
different phases of a construction project is
designed and implemented, using WWW,
database, and object-oriented technologies.
In addition, pilot studies are carried out on
standardization and exchange of basic
engineering drawing elements among the
planning, design, and construction phases.
