Abstract
Just like in other industrial fields, partners of the building activities are confronted to problems relating to the information communication during the life cycle of the building. In our research a building can be seen as a particular industrial product composed by a large set of building components built on site or manufactured. The building information management system we built is able to take advantage of sharing these design features according to a concurrent engineering approach. Our research work attempts to integrate distributed databases by using the World Wide Web technology, and allows distant requests on features that are significant for each specific partner. In a cooperative context, this approach is interesting for building owners in the way to improve the maintenance activity, the longest stage of all the building life cycle.
