Engineering drawings play very important roles to convey information in construction engineering. The traditional management approach could not satisfy the need of increasingly complicated engineering tasks. In addition, the information technologies, such as WWW, Object-Orientation, Database, have been improved rapidly. The present research studies how to take advantage of the new information technologies to solve the problems encountered in engineering drawing management. The major of the tasks performed in the present research are as follows: (1) Study problems in engineering drawing management, (2) Evaluation of the information technologies, such as WWW, Object Orientation, and Database, to Engineering Drawing Management, and (3) Analysis, design, and implementation of an Engineering Drawing Management System, called EDMS. Besides, the problems encountered in the development process of EDMS are discussed.
