Cambridge, MA, April 15, 2017 — Weather Build, Inc., Decision Support Solutions for the Construction Industry & Built Environment™, is excited to announce the release of WeatherBuild Mobile Version 1.1.8 on the App Store. New features in WeatherBuild Web and WeatherBuild Mobile include a data dictionary of standard construction activities.
The WeatherBuild data dictionary of standard construction activities is organized in the following five categories, based on the MasterFormat standard of numbers and titles:
- Construction Aids
- Facility Construction
- Facility Services
- Process Equipment
- Site and Infrastructure
For example, the Construction Aids data dictionary includes temporary hoists; temporary cranes; temporary scaffolding and platforms; temporary swing staging, etc. The Facility Construction data dictionary includes existing conditions – exterior; concrete; masonry; metals; wood, plastics, and composites; thermal and moisture protection; openings, etc.
In the future, WeatherBuild plans to release additional categories to the data dictionary of standard construction activities, with data content for work results, construction practices, and equipment operations for general building, petroleum, transportation, power, industrial, manufacturing, telecom, sewer and waste, water, hazardous waste, and many other sectors.
As the generally accepted, information standard used throughout the construction industry and built environment in North America, the Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) and Construction Specifications Canada (CSC) MasterFormat lists titles and section numbers for organizing data about work results and construction practices.
Further, the WeatherBuild data dictionary of standard construction activities complements schedule integration with project-specific schedule activities, enabling weather risk probability for each activity. For schedule integration, the WeatherBuild Solution is compatible with Oracle Primavera P6, MS Project and Excel, and many other formats.
