Building Information Dashboard as Decision Support during Design Phase

Abstract

This paper discusses the Building Information Dashboard, a data representation method which provides a solid basis for decision-makers to make optimal decisions during the design phase of an Architecture, Engineering, and Construction project. We describe an example project workflow where the dashboard is integrated. We sum up the evaluation method, which is the basis of the dashboard, and we research what type of visualization method is best suited to representing this type of data. To this end, an evaluation matrix was created to compare the alternative charts. We take into account what kind of information such a dashboard should represent and what kind of features it should have. We suggest layouts for different use cases - both for professional and non-professional decision-makers, as well as for discipline designers
