A Knowledge-Based Model for Constructability Assessment of Buildings Design Using BIM (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Fadoul, A., Tizani, W., & Osorio-Sandoval, C. A. (2020). A Knowledge-Based Model for Constructability Assessment of Buildings Design Using BIM. In E. Toledo Santos, & S. Scheer (Eds.), Proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Computing in Civil and Building Engineering: ICCCBE 2020 (147-159). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-51295-8_13

Economic and time efficiency can be attained in the construction industry by applying the principles of constructability. Existing empirical studies demonstrate that incorporating these principles into initial stages of design maximise outcomes for a...

Discrete-Event Simulation and Building Information Modelling Based Animation of Construction Activities (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Osorio-Sandoval, C. A., Tizani, W., Pereira, E., Koch, C., & Fadoul, A. (2021). Discrete-Event Simulation and Building Information Modelling Based Animation of Construction Activities. In Proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Computing in Civil and Building Engineering: ICCCBE 2020 (285-294). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-51295-8_21

Discrete-event simulation (DES) technology has been widely used in the construction context, particularly in the academic community for research purposes. However, it has been neglected by industry for various reasons, including the usual way in whic...

Building Information Modelling (BIM)—versioning for collaborative design (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Zada, A. J., Tizani, W., & Oti, A. (in press). Building Information Modelling (BIM)—versioning for collaborative design. In Computing in Civil and Building Engineering (2014). https://doi.org/10.1061/9780784413616.064

The engineering design process is a complicated activity. It is often characterized by multi-disciplinary teams in multiple places working together on a single project, using different models and software tools. In addition, such activities generate...
