E-Portal for Construction Engineers: Integrated Construction Information Portal Using 4-Tier Architecture
Construction information ranges from personal to organisation in addition to project specific information. It also requires particular industry information. Electronic construction information portals have become popular in recent years but most portals are intended for business transaction processing. This paper describes a web-based construction information portal (e-Portal) intended for use by construction engineers and organisations. A functional framework for the portal is presented along with a 4-Tier architecture including Presentation Layer, Application Layer, Application Programming Interface (API) Layer, and Database Layer. Industry specific information such as laws and regulations, national standards, standard specifications, technical manuals, construction materials and manufacturers is organised and presented as serviceable contents of the e-Portal. With the presented architecture of e-Portal, construction information can be acquired and processed via a Wireless Application Protocol (WAP), mobile devices, and World Wide Web (WWW) with the use of the eXtensible Mark-up Language (XML) and eXtensible Stylesheet Language (XSL).
