The first book to talk about how to manage knowledge in a BIM environment, this comprehensive resource discusses why effective knowledge management is important in the AEC industry, as well as how to achieve this goal. The book covers how knowledge management relates to BIM; the available standards for organizing and structuring building knowledge; the types of information in the model and best practices for managing that information; and how the output of that knowledge--construction documents--change with BIM. This book is supported by the Construction Specification Institute (CSI).
