QUANTITY ESTIMATE AND COST CONTROL USING CONCEPTUAL MODEL AND PRODUCTION MODEL : Using 3D-CAD in production design (Part 2)(Information Systems Technology)

Abstract

Using 3D-CAD, quantification is performed which would be the basis of cost control during the design process of a laboratory building project. In addition to the process followed during the high rise residential building projects formerly, this time modules and rough models are introduced during the preliminary planning and preliminary design stages respectively, the precast and conventional RC parts are focused on, and construction detailed modeling is performed using standardized modeling process and computer programs introduced within the company. As a result cost control became possible starting from the early stages of the design.
