The Manufacturing Systems Engineering Unit (UESP) integrates
a partnership led by the Institute of Construction (IC-FEUP)
together with the National Laboratory of Civil Engineering
(LNEC), hired by Direcção Geral dos Edifícios e Monumentos
Nacionais - DGEMN (General Directorate for Buildings and
National Monuments), last 14th of December 2005, to execute
the project named ProNIC – Protocolo para a Normalização da
Informação na Construção. (Protocol for the Notmalization of
the Information in Construction).
This project follows the CIC-Net project
http://www.cic-net.org, finished in 2001 in which the
UESP and the IC participated, integrated in a partnership of
10 entities, which produced, among other results, a
methodology and a tool for the management and mechanized
generation of specifications sheets in the area of
construction.
ProNIC will last two years and its main goals are the
creation of a knowledge data base on the construction works
that includes technical specifications, measurement rules,
performance indicators, product cost cards and safety rules.
A bank of reference models will also be built.
These contents will be developed and validated by a set
of specialists and professionals of IC, LNEC and DGEMN, as
well as other specialists with widely known experience. The
staging for the content generation will be made according to
the following stages:
In a first stage – conservation and rehabilitation of
buildings; and on the second stage – general work of
buildings and road infrastructures.
The other goal is the implementation of a set of computer
applications that enable the management of the contents
generated and the use of those by the several intervenients
in the construction process.
INESC Porto’s team consists of Luis Gardão, Luis Carneiro
and Luis Lima.
