This part of ISO 12006 applies to the complete life cycle of construction works, including design, production, maintenance and demolition, and to both building and civil engineering.

It identifies classes for the organization of information and indicates how these classes are related.

This part of ISO 12006 lists the tables which are recommended to be developed and used to classify the members of each class according to particular views or principles of specialization and gives examples of entries which might occur in these tables.
