Abstract:

Information technology plays a central role in almost all aspects of daily life. Information and Communication Technologies are changing the way we work and play. Such changes are evident in the design, construction and operation of large construction projects. Programs such as building information modeling (BIM) and various other innovative digital technologies and engineering systems are changing the way we materialize all aspects of construction projects. This proliferation of information technology and digital technologies facilitated the adoption of various innovative approaches in processes and various web based systems throughout a project life-cycle and across its supply chain. Web-based software has changed the face of the construction industry. It has increased sales and efficiencies, all the while decreasing costs and keeping teams better connected. Large or small, construction jobs can be made easier with the right support system, especially when it comes to management software. Clear communication and transparent project management between contractors, teams, and management make for a smooth workflow and better bottom lines for all involved. This study aims in developing a responsive website to perform variety of complex calculations, modelling, management, designing practice and several analysis processes and to manage onsite and offsite operations very quickly.
