The main purpose of this paper is to find the phase-in of BIM adoption by focusing on the level of integration. BlM should be aimed at integration and collaboration of all parties furnishing design and construction services to increase the productivity. Therefore, the degree and depth of integration for project collaboration is very important to BlM design process. One of the key advantages of full integration is that is to facilitates the development of detailed information much earlier in the entire design process to improve collaboration among stakeholders. Such integrated use is the ultimate method, but even so, it's not the precondition of BlM. One of the key advantages of relatively low integration as a transition phase is to adopt the BlM earlier than full integration. Such transitional and non-integrated BIM can also reduce the possibility of trial and error in BlM adoption. Therefore, this paper focused on non-integrated use of BlM as a substitute of full IPD by analyzing obstacles in BIM adoption.

Building information modeling (BIM)-based construction projects have increased and become more varied, and as such the management of BIM-based facility information is also increasingly important for facility maintenance. Information management, and specifically product data mapping, however, has some problems in the area of manual data entry and does not adequately consider the exchange requirements of facility maintenance. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce a method to improve the management of composite object information for BIM-based facility maintenance so that it can handle construction operation building information exchange (COBie) data for a composite object. Therefore, we present a method to map COBie data to related materials of a composite object. This research contributes to increasing the efficiency and accuracy of the required information mapping between a building model and product data using a BIM library through optimal BIM data adoption. Moreover, it allows for the creation and management of specific product data at the design development phase.

The utilization of Building Information Modeling (BIM) has increased in order to enhance the integration of information for management and resources throughout the construction projects. Therefore, various BIM softwares have been used under open BIM environments in the building and plant construction industry. However, it has obstructive factors due to the lack of interoperability. In order to address this problem, this study conducted an interoperability analysis of BIM software focused on user-defined properties for enhanced function and efficiency. Result of the analysis shows that authoring tools have more interoperability problems than viewer tools and simulation tools have. In terms of interoperability, user-defined properties outperforms than those of system basic properties and logic data. Therefore, it was found that functional improvement and workload minimization in BIM can be attained by applying the GBS (an user-defined property for automatic manipulation of BIM proposed by Jung et al. 2013) that enables automatic link between geometric data and non-geometric data. In this respect, this study concludes that the application of user-defined property (e.g. GBS) can be an effective method for information integration throughout construction projects.

Building information modeling (BIM) has been receiving attention as an integrated information model instead of CAD since the 2000s. BIM technology was first used in the architectural field and was later introduced to the civil engineering field. However, the government announced a plan for the application of BIM to 20% of all SOC projects from 2020, so the adoption of BIM technology is expected to accelerate. In order to successfully adopt BIM, a systematic structure should be supported for integrated design information and implementation technology. Also, it is important to establish the relationship between information systems because many complicated factors are intertwined in the construction industry. In this study, we propose a framework for constructing integrated information through identifying the information relations for introducing BIM in the civil engineering industry. We applied this framework to a bridge project to confirm its effectiveness. This study can be applied to the integrated management of the construction process and costs by introduction of a work breakdown structure (WBS) to BIM. In addition, this study is expected to contribute to the adoption of BIM in the civil engineering field through the proposal of information system standardization in this field.

ZEB is a building that increases the energy independence of the building itself, and new and renewable elements that can produce energy are essential, and BIPV is the most notable technology. In ZEB's design, BIPV should be planned early in the design, but BIPV plans are insufficient in the early stages. Therefore, this study derived elements for theoretical consideration of BIM and ZEB and analysis of ZEB independence rate based on BIM, a convergence design technology, and analyzed BIPV energy production and building energy consumption. Finally, by calculating the energy independence rate and reviewing the rating criteria in the project model, a basic research method for calculating the energy independence rate of ZEB at the beginning of the design was presented. Through this, it is expected that design productivity can be improved by supporting the decision of ZEB subjects.

The purpose of this paper is to provide baseline on the current status and the activation of BIM in civil engineering which can integrate and manage the information and tasks generated during the life cycle. Hierarchical analysis was conducted to identify the level of BIM application, recognition survey for practitioners, and activation plans. The survey results show similar trends in BIM activation inhibition factor, the need for BIM, the effect of BIM and the future possibility of BIM. The utilization of BIM and the technical training in the civil engineering field were lower than those in the architectural field. The analysis of AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) is performed to identify the degree of importance in financial, operational, investment, technical, and institutional sections as its activating factors. As a result, the technical factor points the highest degree. Thus, study shows the direction to apply BIM in civil engineering in the future by suggesting an efficient plan.

건축 기획단계는 프로젝트 전반에 걸친 주요한 의사결정이 일어나는 부분으로 그 영향력에 비해 프로젝트 정보를 수집, 처리, 저장하여 관련 참여자가 정보를 재사용하거나 참고하여 새로운 의사결정을 수행하는 것이 미흡하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 BIM을 활용하여 기획단계에서 발생한 정보들이 설계, 시공, 유지관리 단계에 이르기까지 전생애주기에 걸쳐 정보를 통합 관리할 수 있도록 BIM기반의 건축 기획단계 지원 시스템을 개발하고자한다. 선행연구 분석과 이론적 고찰을 통해 건축 기획단계를 정의하고 건축기획 BIM의 개념과 특징을 도출하였다. 이를 토대로 기획단계 BIM프로세스를 정립하여 BIM을 기반으로 건축 기획단계를 지원하는 프로토타입 시스템 VA-Cityplanner를 개발하였다.

3D and BIM technology are presumed to be used more and more in the construction industry. The scope of this paper arose from a general wondering of how the constructor in general can benefit from the use of 3D models. Presented herewith is the first application of BIM in Korea to a actual bridge construction site located in Cheongpoong in Chooncheongbook-Do. This paper tries to integrate design, cost and schedule under location-based conditions with industry-specific solution for 3D modeling. 292 activities constitute the cable-stayed bridge of 442m long with a main span of 327m long. Integration of 3D model, cost and schedule is shown by comparing the measurements of works at a specific time by use of 2 different construction sequencing scenarios and cost breakdown structures.

The regular assessment of a building is important to understand structural safety and latent risk in the early stages of building life cycle. However, methods of traditional assessment are subjective, atypical, labor-intensive, and time-consuming and as such the reliability of these results has been questioned. This study proposed a method to bring accurate results using a 3D laser scanner and integrate them in Building Information Modeling (BIM) to visualize defective condition. The specific process for this study was as follows: (1) semi-automated data acquisition using 3D laser scanner and python script, (2) scan-to-BIM process, (3) integrating and visualizing defective conditions data using dynamo. The method proposed in this study improved efficiency and productivity in a building assessment through omitting the additional process of measurement and documentation. The visualized 3D model allows building facility managers to make more effective decisions. Ultimately, this is expected to improve the efficiency of building maintenance works.
