Integrating 3D Digital Models Into Asset Management

This project will examine the state of the art of three-dimensional (3D) building information modeling/civil integrated management (BIM/CIM) technology, both domestically and abroad and its application to highway asset management. Once this information is synthesized, the effort will focus on developing best-practice recommendations that include a plan for the integration of 3D design into current highway construction standards, educational curriculum, and professional practice in the United States. These recommendations will serve as a foundation for industry, academia, and government to incorporate 3D elements into future highway design and specification practice.
