Journal ArticleDOI
Building Information Modeling Education for Construction Engineering and Management. I: Industry Requirements, State of the Art, and Gap Analysis
Rafael Sacks,Ergo Pikas +1 more
TL;DR: The goal of this research was to compile a framework for BIM education that lays out the necessary topics and the levels of achievement required at each stage of degree programs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Construction with digital twin information systems
TL;DR: DTC should be viewed as a comprehensive mode of construction that prioritizes closing the control loops rather than an extension of BIM tools integrated with sensing and monitoring technologies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cost optimal and nearly zero energy building solutions for office buildings
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered possible office building fenestration design solutions which take into account both energy efficiency and cost optimality, and proposed design guidelines for high performance office building facades.
Journal ArticleDOI
Facade design principles for nearly zero energy buildings in a cold climate
TL;DR: In this article, a cost optimal and as energy efficient as possible facade solution, including window properties, external wall insulation, window-to-wall ratio and external shading were determined with energy and daylight simulations in the cold climate of Estonia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Building Information Modeling Education for Construction Engineering and Management. II: Procedures and Implementation Case Study
TL;DR: The experiments showed that BIM should be introduced not only as a topic in its own right, but more importantly, also as a tool for performing the engineering tasks taught within design, analysis, and management courses.
