Welcome

Welcome to Nottingham. We are delighted that you are able to join us for this very full conference. Your Conference Organising Committee has worked hard to make this a memorable visit for you. There is a great deal to see and do: a broad range of papers to listen to; a large number of old friends and colleagues to discuss issues with and a large number of new friends to be made. The conference programme includes 303 paper presentations, 20 of which are posters. These papers were drawn from a total of 422 submissions. The papers have undergone a two‐stage peer reviewing process. The accepted papers have been contributed to by 532 different authors. This constitutes a tremendous effort and collects a significant amount of knowledge in the area. The contributors include researchers and practicing experts from 40 countries and 253 organisations. The book of the proceedings classifies the papers into nineteen main sections. It includes the contributions in the form of 2‐page extended abstracts. The accompanying USB flash drive uses a web‐site style form to provide access to the full papers as well as the extended‐abstracts, author and keyword indexes, and the conference programme. Please take time to study the final programme carefully and find those events that interest you. Please don’t overlook anything: the presentations of the papers which are in 5 parallel sessions; the poster sessions which are timetabled in parallel with the paper presentations; and the exhibition stalls. You are invited to the conference reception on the evening of 29th June. This is an excellent opportunity to start the conference in an informal manner and to enable you to relax before the serious business starts on 30th June. If you have booked to attend the conference banquet, please make sure that you do not miss the transport which is arranged. We are travelling to one of the most famous country houses in England. It is an opportunity to immerse yourself in English history and culture. If you need assistance while you are at the conference, seek out the Conference Desk or one of the local assistants. They will be glad to help you with anything connected with the conference. They will also help you find a good restaurant or tell you about cultural and tourist sites within easy reach of the conference. Thank you for coming. We hope you find the experience of Nottingham fulfilling in a personal and professional sense and that you leave looking back at a rewarding few days and forward to participating in the next ICCCBE conference.

The Organising Bodies

The International Society for Computing in Civil and Building Engineering The ICCCBE Conference series is organised by the International Society for Computing in Civil and Building Engineering, the ISCCBE. The ISCCBE is a society with international country representation. The list of country representatives is given under the Committees section of this guide. The ICCCBE bi‐annual conference series is one of the largest and leading forums in the area of information technology in civil and building engineering. It has been previously organised in New York 1981, Hangzhou 1985, Vancouver 1988, Tokyo 1991, Anaheim 1993, Berlin 1995, Seoul 1997, Stanford 2000, Taipei 2002, Weimar 2004, Montreal 2006 and Beijing 2008. After the icccbe2010 in Nottingham, the conference is planned for Moscow in 2012.

The European Group for Intelligent Computing in Engineering The EG‐ICE is a group that was formed 17 years ago in Lausanne, Switzerland. It holds yearly workshops independently and in conjunction with larger meetings, such as the icccbe2010. The focus of EG‐ICE is to promote research and applications of advanced informatics to activities in engineering. The group maintains active contact with similar groups in countries outside Europe and encourages overseas memberships.

The University of Nottingham The University of Nottingham’s Faculty of Engineering and the Department of Civil Engineering are the host and local organiser of the conference. The Faculty supports international research forums and has strongly supported and backed the organisation of this conference. This forms part of its research strategy in being research‐led and in encouraging research dissemination and knowledge exchange. The University of Nottingham is a leading University in the UK. It was confirmed as a world‐class University in the global league tables. It is ranked in the UK top 10 and the world top 100 by the Shanghai Jiao Tong (SJTU) and the Times Higher Education‐QS World University Rankings. The University has two international campuses: one in Malaysia and one in China. The Department of Civil Engineering was ranked second in England for the quality of its research in the latest Government organised Research Assessment Exercise (RAE 2008).

icccbe 2010 Delegate Guidelines

Conference Etiquette All those attending the conference are requested to: • visibly wear their badges at all conference functions since badges are also passes to the conference functions (e.g.

the Conference Banquet, academic sessions and lunches). • be at the session location before it starts or use the rear door if later (need to use the stairs for the Conference

Theatre). • contact the Conference Office for booking meeting rooms. • check the notice board at the Conference Desk for any messages. • dress smart‐casual to formal.

Delegates may use the refreshment facilities and lounges without the need for any formal bookings.

High‐quality presentations are essential for the success of icccbe2010. Keeping to the times in the Conference Programme is also of paramount importance. Please read the following information carefully and feel free to contact the Organisers if you have any questions.

Guidelines for Presenters Each paper is allocated a total of 15 minutes. This is divided at the discretion of the chair into 10 minute presentation time and 5 minute setup and discussion time. The Chair will have your brief CV and the technical assistance will have prepared your presentation file ready for use. For the system to operate smoothly, you must have already uploaded your presentation file online and provided a brief CV when registering. Session chairs will be strictly enforcing the 15 minute limit to allow delegates to move between sessions to listen to particular papers of interest. Presenters must meet in the allocated session room at least 10 minutes before its scheduled start. They should introduce themselves to the chair and ensure their presentation file is already set. No changes to the electronic files are allowed at this stage. Meeting rooms will be equipped with a Windows‐based computer running PowerPoint 2007 and linked to a data projector. An integrated laser pointer and slide changer will also be available for use.

Guidelines for Chairs Session chairs will be provided with a print‐out of their individual session details showing title and order of papers and names and brief CVs of presenters. They will be assisted by a conference administrator who will ensure that all appropriate presentation files are loaded and ready for use and who will also trouble‐shoot if necessary. Session chairs are expected to: • be present in the session location at least 15 minutes before the schedule start of the session. • introduce themselves to the session administrator. • check with the administrator that all equipment is working properly. • check with the administrator that the presentations are not corrupt and that they correspond to the session. • strictly maintain the total 15 minute time period for each individual presentation. This period is nominally divided

into 10 minute presentation time and 5 minute setup and discussion time. This is especially important as the conference programme is very full. This is also important to allow delegates to move between sessions to listen to particular papers of interest.

In the event you are co‐chairing a session, you need to agree with your co‐chair for a change‐over time (normally half‐way through the session). As far as possible, if a chair is also presenting in their session, their presentation will have been scheduled towards the end of their chairing period.

Badges Conference badges show what you have registered for. If you have signed up for the conference banquet a strip at the bottom should indicate this. Badges also distinguish between accompanying persons and academic delegates. Accompanying persons are invited to attend the Conference reception and the Conference Banquet at Chatsworth. Your badge is your pass so please ensure that you wear it prominently at all times.


Venue and Subject Programme

The conference is held at the East Midlands Conference Centre (EMCC). The EMCC is located within the Nottingham University Park Campus. The Conference sessions will run in five locations: the Conference Theatre (CT) and the Conference Suites 1 to 4 (CS1 to CS4).

Academic Keynote Addresses

A future challenge for informatics: harnessing massive operational and condition data to better manage the infrastructure life‐cycle

James H. Garrett, Jr.,

Professor and Head, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Carnegie Mellon University, USA

Infrastructure managers proactively and cost effectively need to deliver and manage their infrastructure systems. This will require a data‐driven, contextual, frequently applied and predictive model‐based support. Many challenges and work for all of us in this community remains, though much excellent work has been done to date, to move us towards this envisioned support for infrastructure providers. It is a very long‐term goal, but an important goal which must be achieved. Infrastructure providers cannot continue business as usual; this has been made clear by continued infrastructure deterioration despite extremely large amounts of funding dedicated to its upkeep. Replacement of infrastructure without concurrent commitment to changing the management process will only push the crisis 20 years further out. This lecture will address these issues and consider how IT can be part of the solution.

Digital buildings: facing the challenges

Alastair S Watson,

Institute for Resilient Infrastructure, University of Leeds, UK

The world will face many challenges in the next twenty years and beyond: physical challenges such as mitigating climate change, adjusting for its effects and for shortages of resources and socio‐economic challenges such as population growth, political instability and economic uncertainty. Against this global context, considerable expectation will be placed on the construction industry and its clients to deliver infrastructure that is both appropriate and (in the broadest sense) resilient. Additionally, the challenges are characterized by uncertainty, are increasingly complex and probably conflicting. They also lie within fiscal and regulatory contexts that are likely to be subject to significant change. Within these challenges some common threads can be identified: the increasing requirement to consider the building within its wider context, the greater design effort necessary to justify the commitment of physical resources, the wider implications for the contractual relationship between the stakeholders and the probability that building refurbishment and redeployment will increase in importance. It can be inferred that over the next twenty years the building construction sector will pose significant challenges to its IT suppliers, it is also likely to be an important market. This lecture will outline the challenges to the construction industry and the consequential information technology challenges.


Industry Keynote Addresses

The future of design and construction processes – what owners will be looking for as they rebuild failing infrastructure

Terry D Bennett,

AEC Solutions Division, Autodesk Inc.

In this presentation, Autodesk Senior Industry Manager for Civil Engineering and Heavy Construction Terry Bennett will provide a forward looking vision into what the next 10 years will look like for IT in civil engineering and heavy construction industries and outline the future of design and construction processes, its impact on infrastructure projects, and what owners will be looking for from their consultants going forward as they rebuild our failing infrastructure and once again are looked upon as master builders, integrators and innovators of design and construction approaches.

Towards interoperable open digital building information models

Leif Granholm,

Senior Vice President, in the Management Team, Tekla Ltd.

The presentation will focus on how building industry will transform from document based processes to process based on digital model based information. Special focus will be given on how this is implemented openly, not causing a lock in to proprietary technology, but instead building on open interoperability between systems from different vendors. Benefits and opportunities given by model based processes to building industry will be analyzed. A new concept for OpenBIM system and information architecture that draws on experiences and technologies already in place in commercial software is presented. Technologies required for successful deployment of model based information to fabrication and sites will also be presented, f.ex augmented reality. The presentation will be topped with some predictions on how and when this will happen.

Design, delivery, and maintenance ‐ important issues with using BIM

David Throssell,

UK BIM Technical Manager at Skanska UK

Skanska are now established users of software to animate how architecture, structure and services will fit together on a project plan. They are now finding new uses for it, and it is clear that they can demonstrate real savings in cost and improve the robustness of their timescales. The presenter will draw on hands‐on experiences in recent construction projects with using BIM technologies and highlight important issues especially those dealing with costs versus benefits. The presentation will cover practical issues relating to the technical uses of BIM in the design, delivery, and maintenance of buildings. The presentation will start by defining what is BIM and what is the Skanska definition of BIM. It will then tackle the subject within the contexts of design, delivery and maintenance of buildings.


Nottingham ‐ What to see

From the Ice Age drawings at Creswell Crags to a perfectly preserved snapshot of a typical 1920s home at Mr Straw’s House in Worksop, Nottinghamshire is crammed with historical attractions. Fortunately, some popular sites are found in very close proximity to the East Midlands Conference Centre. These include country parks, castles, museums as well as the reputedly oldest inn in England. Step outside and explore Nottingham... The University Park Campus is conveniently placed for visits to Nottingham City Centre and Wollaton Park. The City Centre is reached by either taxis or frequent bus service. Wollaton Park is within easy walking distance of the Conference Centre. Please visit www.triptimes.co.uk to plan your public transport journey and ensure to confirm your journey with the bus driver to avoid going in the wrong direction.

Campus Location within Nottingham (from Google Maps) • While on campus, do not miss out on the spectacular and relaxing views along the Lakeside. Just behind the

conference centre, visit the “secret” Millennium Garden. In the south, walk into the central courtyard and observe the splendid architecture of one of the oldest structure on campus, the Trent Building.

• Adjacent to the University campus is Wollaton Park. On site, in addition to the historic hall and its

sumptuous grounds, visitors will find Nottingham's Natural History Museum and the Yard Gallery.

Nottingham City Centre


On‐Campus Accommodation


• Nottingham has more man‐made caves than anywhere else in Britain, and the cave network has Ancient

Monument Protection. Located in the heart of Nottingham City Centre, the City of Caves is part of a complex of up to 400 caves dating back to the Dark Ages, the last of which were in use until as late as 1924 (look at a Nottingham City Centre Map).

• At the end of Castle Boulevard you will find The Museum of Nottingham Life sited in Brewhouse Yard at the base

of Castle Rock, a location that itself reveals much about Nottingham's social history. Behind the museum you will find another network of man‐made caves, the Castle Rock caves.

• Visit Nottingham Castle, a magnificent 17th century ducal mansion built on the site of the original Medieval

Castle, with spectacular views across the city. Nottingham Castle today is a vibrant museum and art gallery housing a vast collection of silver, glass, decorative items, visual arts, paintings and Nottinghamshire Archaeology and History.

• Tales of Robin Hood have been told for 700 years – and our fascination with this world‐famous outlaw continues

into the 21st century. From his forest lair he ambushes rich travellers, fights corrupt officials, and shares the spoils of his outlawry with poor, oppressed peasants. Just below Nottingham Castle you will find the 7ft bronze statue that was erected in 1952, the Robin Hood statue.

Banquet at Chatsworth

The Conference Banquet will be held at Chatsworth House. This is a large country house in Derbyshire, 3½ miles north east of Bakewell about 45 miles from Nottingham. It is the seat of the Dukes of Devonshire, and has been home to their family, the Cavendish family, since Bess of Hardwick settled at Chatsworth in 1549. Standing on the east bank of the River Derwent, Chatsworth looks across to the low hills that divide the Derwent and Wye valleys. The house is set in expansive parkland, and backed by wooded, rocky hills rising to heather moorland. Chatsworth's garden is one of the most famous in England. The house contains a unique collection of priceless paintings, furniture, Old Master drawings, neoclassical sculpture, books and other artefacts. Chatsworth has been selected as the United Kingdom's favourite country house several times. (Source: Wikipedia) The visit will be on Thursday 1st of July 2010. It includes a tour of the House, which should last about 45 minutes, and a special barbeque in its historic stable courtyard.
