Overview: Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) projects require multidisciplinary solutions. AEC professionals have formal methods to help them manage and communicate much of a single discipline's information; however, they lack formal methodologies to manage and communicate information and processes among multiple disciplines. The authors are designing and implementing three methodologies to help AEC professionals overcome these difficulties. This paper presents application of these methods to case studies from the feasibility study of a "Living Laboratory" currently being designed at Stanford University, discuss how these methodologies might enable AEC professionals to better manage and communicate their multidisciplinary design processes and information, and describe ongoing efforts to develop integrated software prototypes for these methodologies in an interactive workspace.
