Long description

Closing the Gap brings together a group of academics, architects, engineers and construction managers each engaged in the use of Building Information Models in the actualization -- from design to construction -- of complex building projects. Through the inclusion of texts that trace the development of BIM technologies and address issues of collaboration, design and management; and current building projects by contributors, the publication systematizes the use of BIM in contemporary design practice for architects, students and allied professionals faced with considering these tools within the changing marketplace that we have created.
