Abstract:

In this study developed is virtual and real-field construction management system(VR-Coms) where integrated are virtual construction simulation,planning,scheduling and performance management system to evaluate productivity and safety in virtual simulated and real-field construction.VR-coms offer supporting modules for learning and discovering solutions with objective to manage construction at right speed with improved humanware and constructability.The configuration 0f VR-Coms is described.This paper also shows the application of agent theory to construction management.
