Integrated Cad Models in Praxis These lectures and exercises focus on how Cad systrem genertated models can be integrated in praxis using for example the IFC standard. Focus is on How can digital models of buildings increase quality in design, construction and use of buildings. What kind of digital models do we have to store building form and functions How can building product models (e.g. stored in Cad systems) models be integrated. Today's and future perspectives. How can building product models support collaboration in the building process?
