Abstract: | ||
| This paper is a reflection of the evolution of the
engineering design and construction processes that have been
shifting very quickly in the last few years, from the two Dimensional
(2D) drawings to models in 3D, 4D and 5D. The advancement
demonstrated that we have a fragmented engineering process and the
construction industry is moving to a more integrated practice with
many advantages for project management, not only during the
design and construction but during the life span of the building.
