Bridge piers typically have circular or rectangular shapes without decorative design. Prefabrication for accelerated construction has been widely adopted in bridge structures. Cost for steel formwork is a main restriction of creative irregular shapes. 3D modelling techniques allow creative design of columns and 3D printing provides possibility to minimize the fabrication cost. In this paper, 3D design process of bridge piers was suggested by converting 2D picture into 3D decorative shape. Formwork design using 3D printed panels was also proposed and mock-up tests were conducted. Precast columns need accurate geometry control from fabrication to assembly. Laser scanning and geometry control devices were adopted. Through the digitalized process of design, fabrication and assembly, creative design of structures can be realized in reasonable cost range.

Recently the importance of BIM (Building Information Modeling) that enables 3D location-based design and construction work is being highlighted around the world. In Korea, the road map has been established to settle the design based on BIM using drone survey results by 2025. As the first step, BIM would be applied to road construction projects worth more than 50 billion Korean Won from 2020. On the other hand, drone survey regulation has been enacted and the data for drone survey cost were also included on Standard of construction estimate in 2020. However, more careful improvement is required to reflect drone survey results in BIM design and construction. Currently, Engineering instructions and Standard of construction estimate specifies that earthwork volume must be calculated by cross section method only. So it is required to add the method of DEM (Digital Elevation Model) based volume calculation on these regulations to realize BIM application. In order for that, this study verified the method of DEM based earthwork volume calculation. To get an accurate DEM for accurate volume computation, drone survey was carried out according to the drone survey regulation and then could get an accurate DEM data which have errors less than 3cm in X, Y and 6.8cm in H. As each DEM cell has 3D coordinate component, the volume of each cell can be calculated by obtaining the height of area of the cell then total volume is calculated by multiplying total number of cells by volume of each cell for the construction area. Verification for the new calculation method compare with existing method was carried out. The difference between DEM based volume by drone survey and cross section based volume by traditional survey was less than 1.33% and it can be seen that new DEM method will be able to be applied to BIM design and construction instead of cross section method.

Recently, interest in BIM technology has been growing in the domestic construction market as the number of construction projects requiring the application of BIM technology has increased. The use of BIM allows the use of various visualization functions through 3D models as well as drawing interference review, quantity calculation and integrated management of information. In particular, estimates of construction costs based on BIM can increase work efficiency by reducing the burden of calculating construction costs and managing them. In order to increase the efficiency of BIM-based cost estimates, it is necessary to improve the correlation between the BoQ(Bill of Quantity) information and the BIM model. For this purpose, the ratio of the amount and item to the detailed construction of the current BoQ was analyzed, especially the problem of the calculation of construction cost in the window work in this study. In addition, we would like to suggest a method for systematically linking the BoQ information with the BIM model by improving the BoQ information structure of the window work. It is expected that this will increase the efficiency of the quantity calculation and analysis work of construction cost of window work. In addition, it is expected that this method will help to analyze and predict changes in construction cost of windows and doors by facility characteristics and type.

In the case of river facilities, the management of this information differs depending on national and regional rivers, therefore, there is no integrated management in place. There is concern about the loss of facility information owing to the insufficient accumulation of information during their design and construction stages. Additionally, as a result, the utilization level of facility information during the maintenance and operation stages is insufficient. To ensure effective maintenance and operation of river facilities, it is necessary to secure data consistency and increase efficiency by organizing facility information according to a standardized classification system. This study proposes a strategy for implementing the BIM standard classification system in the river sector, considering facility characteristics. The goal is to introduce a BIM information model for 3D-based river facilities, and enable efficient maintenance and operation conversion.

This study deals with the BIM (Building Information Modeling)-based energy performance analysis implemented in EnergyPlus. The BIM model constructed at Revit is updated at Design Builder, adding HVAC models and converted compatibly with the EnergyPlus. We can obtain the input values about HVAC system and building environment such as HVAC system efficient, the number of air changes and energy consumption of equipment on applying GAs (Genetic algorithms). After modification about HVAC system, Optimization about HVAC system energy consumption can be analyzed. In order to maximize the building energy performance, a genetic algorithm (GA)-based optimization technique is applied to the modified HVAC models. Throughout the proposed building energy simulation, finally, the best optimized HVAC control schedule for the target building can be obtained in the form of "supply air temperature schedule". Throughout the supply air temperature schedule is applied to energy performance simulation, we obtained energy saving effect result on simulation.

An investigation of the tunnel face, as well as related measurement data collected during tunneling, is necessary for rock classification and to determine tunnel stability and the cost efficiency of tunneling. However, systematic management and efficient use of such data have yet to be successfully implemented domestically, and the number of experts in this field in Korea is limited. Thus, measures to develop and implement systematic management and effective use of data and expertise are urgently needed. This study aimed to develop measures to efficiently provide online tunnel design and construction data using a building information model (BIM)-based data visualization approach, based on an integrated 3D tunnel model generation module and a web viewer module. The development technology was verified through ○○ tunnel design and construction. Directions for future study and system improvement are proposed.

This study examines 3D scanning and how it is used in the construction field. 3D scanning technology was applied to a real space and compared with drawings in the planning and construction stages. 3D scanning technology has been widely applied in the field of construction, design, construction, and safety. The results of comparing 3D scanning data with drawings are as follows. First, the external shape and dimensions do not show much difference. Second, the internal shape and dimensions are different. Third, indoor lighting layouts are different in all buildings. 3D scanning should be an essential element in the construction stage before completion and should be used for supervision tasks such as material management, improving the efficiency of construction, and safety management through continuous 3D scanning using automation and robots. Follow-up studies in the field of architecture, such as BIM and process management, will be needed.

With the promotion of digitalization in the construction industry, BIM has become an indispensable technology. On the other hand, it has not been actively utilized in practice because of the difficulty of BIM modeling. The reason is that 3D modeling is less productive not only because of the difficulty of learning BIM software but also the modeling work is done manually. Therefore, this study proposes a method and system that can improve the productivity of BIM-based modeling. For this reason, in the study, a slit caisson, which is a typical structure of a port, was selected as a development target, and various parameters were derived through interviews with experts so that it could be used in practice. This study presents a UI construction plan that considers user convenience for efficient management and operation of diverse and complex parameters. Based on this, this study used visual programming and Excel VBA to develop a BIM-based design automation system for slit caissons. The developed system can use many parameters to quickly develop slit caisson models suitable for various design conditions that can contribute to BIM-based modeling and productivity improvement.

Aesthetic design guidelines of bridges were developed in many countries. As iconic structures, bridges need to be attractive and durable as they serve many generations. In this paper, a new design process of concrete structures considering 3D shapes and texture was proposed. The 3D design needs to consider function, economy, advanced technology, tradition and local culture. 3D printers enable the combination of artistic design and engineering design for concrete structures. Parametric modeling with iconic design was utilized to produce 3D formworks. As a pilot project, a railway bridge girder was designed and the proposed technologies were applied. Detail requirements to improve constructability and quality of concrete surfaces were derived. From the pilot applications, design guidelines were suggested.
