[en] Design models are an essential means for abstract representation and visualisation
of information in the design process. Comprehension of design models
in interdisciplinary engineering design teams is often hindered by different
terminology and different discipline-specific modelling approaches. This paper
presents the results of an interview study conducted with practitioners and
researchers from engineering design and building design. The study elaborates
the different ways of collaboration and use of design models in building
design as compared to engineering design, in order to derive the potentials
for cross-fertilisation between both areas of product development.
