The full name of the project is Web‐enabled Construction Lifecycle DRUMBEAT. It is extending the earlier DRUM-project where the applicability of Web of Data technologies were identified for sharing BIM information at granular level in AEC/FM domains. Mainly the same partners were also involved in the earlier project. The main goal in Drumbeat is to create a proof-of-concept for Web of Data based methods and software in selected use cases in these domains. Detailed Drumbeat objectives and work packages are presented in the project introduction slides.
