* 5D is the technical label for BIM (Building Information Modelling) design, which integrates more paramenters in the final product than volume and time. These paramenters go from project management, manufacturing processes, to pricing of materials, work and inplementation, to maintenance, aging or even usability expectancy. All in the same design document.
