This course is also designed to expose the students in analysing, designing and developing the huge of data. It concerns on the management of information and how to model it in a structured manner. The used of database system as an application tool give the student a further step in order to apply an IT application in solving their problems. This course also exposes the knowledge on the usage, management and sharing of data and information to ensure that information is manipulated and used effectively. The aim of the course is to give students a practical, hands‐on introduction to BIM and data management techniques for the documentation and modelling of designed structures. At the end of the course, students should be able to plan, analyse, and modelling the data to develop the BIM model and data management related to civil engineering problems.
