  1. How has CONCUR used EXPRESS Data Manager™ version 4.0 ? IMS support – EXPRESS Data Manager™ is used by the CONCUR project to implement a Product Model Server (PMS) as an integral part of the Project Information Management System (IMS). The IMS is responsible to ensure consistency between the contractual document management system and the 3D project database stored in the PMS according to the IAI IFC151 specification. The PMS provides a facility for selective viewing, download and upload of 3D project data and their link to the contractual documents. CONCUR is making use the ultimate object technology: Objects are defined as industry standard objects in IFC and the ISO Express-X language is used as a data manipulation language (DML) for improving the capability of these objects - independently of any particular software system. Project database functionality: Partial download – Using a 3D browser (Promote) to select IFC objects to download using P21 and XML Upload and merge – Import IFC objects and merge the result using P21 and XML.. XML Access to IFC Models – EDM provides an access interface to objects, their attributes and properties based on XML to enable the integration with material take-off applications in Excel and similar. IFC Browser - EDM provides the object database used by the TNO IFC Browser application which can view IFC models and be used to add, edit and extract the properties and attributes of the IFC objects in the models. Calculation of derived Attributes - EXPRESS Data Manager™ provides a virtual machine that interprets all Express and Express-X executable statements. CONCUR has used this capability to add semantics to the IFC151 schema by adding ‘Derived Attributes’ such as volume and surface area of the IFC 1.5.1 objects. This is a convenience to any application that does not include a geometric engine. Further information Reports describing the CONCUR Project’s use of Express the Data Manager are available in the Download Area.
