Abstract :
Information in construction project has always been dispersed and scattered in every independent phase. It is always a challenge to integrate project lifecycle information in construction system management to improve productivity. Based on comparison of information lifecycle and construction project lifecycle, this paper presents an information lifecycle modeling to manage construction projects through lifecycles. An innovative framework of information lifecycle modeling for construction project management is suggested for all participants who can access construction lifecycle information. The information in the construction projects is acquired and shared in central database and traditional information loss in construction projects is eliminated. The construction lifecycle information model in this paper is suggested based on industry foundation classes (IFC) and construction information process is optimized.
