    The Actors' Perceptions and Expectations of their Roles in BIM-based Collaboration

    The inter-organisational collaboration with Building Information Modelling (BIM) is one of the hottest topics in construction sector nowadays. The implementation of BIM is a complex inter-organisational process, and the sharing of information among numerous actors from multi-disciplinary backgrounds may affect the actors’ role perception and performance. This study offers insights into the BIM roles of various actors by analysing a BIM-based project carried out by an integrated partnership across many tiers. The analysis identified inconsistencies between the actors' perceptions and their partners’ expectations of their BIM roles. Inconsistencies in BIM roles were more related to soft rather than hard (domain- or technical) skills. Mismatches were found in the architect's role, as it was deemed necessary to be more domain- and BIM-related, contrary to their perceptions. Likewise, the suppliers' role called for an enhanced BIM orientation. The paper concludes with set of suggestions for increasing the joint responsibility and supporting the multi-actor collaboration.Design & Construction ManagementSustainable Housing Transformatio

    拓拔氏的制度裏設有「中散」一職,是兩漢、魏晉,以及南朝的漢族王朝所沒有的官職。「中散」獨出現於異民族鮮卑拓拔氏所建立的國家,這種情況,對於政治制度的研究,或是對於中國史上異民族王朝的討論,都是一個值得深入省思的課題。北魏職官中的「中散」,起自太祖道武帝拓拔珪或太宗明元帝拓拔嗣,結束於孝文帝朝。翻閱中外史籍,在異民族王朝的統治之下,常有二元的政治社會存在,在政治制度上也常會出現二元體制。「中散」在史書裏雖以中國式的官名出現,但其原本是胡制;即使不然,也是異民族王朝在中國獨特設立的制度。於是乎,「中散」就在這樣的時空背景下應運而生。本文寫作的方式,首先討論「中散」一職的設立、品階與廢置、近侍與職掌、官號與散官、身份與遷官等;次敘中散、主文中散、奏事中散、侍御中散四類中散官職的性質。各種中散,總稱中散官,在北魏內廷職官中自成一個系統。但中散名稱之由來,或是游牧部族制裏的職官,取中國之字義而漢譯成中國式的官名。其名稱則因職官性質近於散官,並在禁中服務,故取名中散。中散官之充近侍,猶如漢代的郎官,一則因中散官與漢帶郎官之發展、分化過程相似,說明了官制發展的原則性;其次,這兩種職位的出現可以說明職官發展的原則,是由宮官轉向府官發展
