Conceptualizing Methodology for Building an Ontology for Construction Claim Knowledge
Sharing comprehensive and professional knowledge about construction contractual claims through ontology could be a good way to improve contractual management. However, when it comes to the implementation of the ontology development, regarding the characteristics of claim knowledge, the practical and feasible conceptualization methodology is not yet well developed. This paper explores a synthesized methodology to fulfill the conceptualization work for the domain knowledge of construction claims. Based on a literature review on knowledge sharing in the construction claims area and ontology building methodologies, as well as the target ontology's definition and scope, the conceptualization activity in the ontology developing methodology of METHONTOLOGY, was selected as a raw conceptualizing methodology to use in the validation case study. The case study was designed to conceptualize the claim knowledge contained in the AIA A201General Conditions of Contract Document. The results of the case study indicated that METHONTOLOGY provides a valid framework and work flow for this domain.
