An information reference model for architecture, engineering, and construction

conference paper
This paper describes the results of the information modelling work group from the International Workshop on Models For Computer-Integrated Construction in Finland, October 1992. At this workshop, researchers from around the world presented their individual modelling efforts. These models ' parallel goals and abundant similarities led the participants to combine their individual results into a single cohesive reference point to act as a basis for future work. The result is IRMA, an Information Reference Model for Architecture, Engineering and Construction. IRMA can serve as the core of a conceptual project model, which can be used as a framework for data standards, as a kernel for modelling and as a basis for implementing computer applications. It defines generally applicable relationships between products, activities, resources, and participants in a building project.
