Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to develop a BIM(Building Information Modeling) application based on the visualization of the expected participant's behaviors in the early stage of building design process. Although the ultimate purpose of BIM is the realization of the integrated practice, the existing technologies based on BIM doesn't correspond to it. Especially, the BIM technologies which is mainly for the experts is not enough to support the collaboration between professionals and non-professionals. In order to build a collaborative environment, meaningful information should be shared because collaboration is not for information delivery but for shared understanding. Human's behavioral information is one of the most important criteria to evaluation the performance of building. In this manner, we propose the system to support the collaboration between professionals and non-professionals with social information visualization in the schematic design phase. |
