CGN 4905/ CCE 6515C Engineering and Construction Analytics using BIM (Dual List)
Overview: Exploration of data-rich, object-oriented, and parametric representation technologies of civil engineering facilities, from which views and information can be extracted and analyzed for construction project acquisition, planning, and controls. Topics include Building Information Modeling (BIM) for engineering design, model-driven cost estimating, construction operations simulation, scanning and photogrammetry technologies, and advanced topics in construction modeling and simulation.
NOTE: This class will focus on the applications of BIM. No previous knowledge required.
