Modular construction, a prominent method in the evolving construction industry, necessitates robust quality control for successful implementation. This study investigates the potential of 3D scanning technology for enhancing quality control processes in modular building construction. Through an IPA analysis of major construction projects across factory production, transportation, and on-site stages, the study evaluates the current state of 3D scanning application in modular construction quality control. Results indicate a high demand for 3D scanning data across various quality control aspects. However, certain limitations in technology and practical application were identified. The findings of this research contribute to the advancement of 3D scanning technology in modular construction and inform future research on cutting-edge quality control strategies.

In this paper, we classify 3D printer technologies which are becoming a recent issue, and analyzed the features and limitations of the technology. As a result, we can see that there is no 3D printer technology that can produce a completely free-curved architectural structure. In order to construct a completely free-curved architectural structure with a 3D printer, it is necessary to draw up a new concept technique that complements the drawbacks of the two methods.

This paper aimed to identify potential opportunities of building information modeling (BIM) utilization for construction risk management. Construction risk factors and BIM functions were derived through conducting in-depth literature review. Nineteen construction risk factors could be resolved by various BIM functions. Phase planning, site analysis, design authoring, and 3D design coordination were identified as the most efficient BIM functions for construction risk management.

The aim of the study is to develop the 3D visualization of Building Information Model and integrated 4D model for optimization of resources in the construction project. This study discuss the process of methodology and creation of 4D model of the project and simulate it to monitor the workflow at the site. Different stages of the construction process and activities are generated by using Revit and MS Project. MS project has been used for creation of the schedules and these are linked with the Revit for 3D modeling. The time used as the fourth dimension and 4D model created by using Navisworks Time liner software. Narges shopping center is presented as a case study to realize the actual uses and benefits of Building Information Model (BIM). Narges shopping mall is located in Tehran, Iran. As a part of Hekmat master plan, Narges shopping center is an 11 stores building with a total area of 30000 Sq.m. This shopping and entertainment center is comprised of 150 retails and two multi-use public halls with a capacity of 400 persons each and underground parking with total 400 parking space. The main purpose of architecture was to create an urban public center along with its revolving, spiral like form and an ever changing continuous façade by means of different colors, materials, which is in harmony with the other building of the master plan. The approximate cost of the project is $17 million and duration of the project schedule is 30 months. The developed Building Information Model enabled us to identify the potential collisions or clashes between various structural and architectural systems. 4D model has been used for limiting the interaction between subcontractors installing the different systems so rework could be avoided and productivity maximized. It is also observed that the utility of BIM for construction stimulation and clash detection is the best suitable method. Clash detection before the implementation of work is highly recommended to avoid rework.

In the construction industry, interest in technologies such as 3D Construction Printing (3DCP) is increasing, and research is being conducted continuously. In the case of atypical architecture, different shapes must be implemented, and the introduction of 3D printing technology is intended to solve it. Our researchers are conducting research to produce Free-form Concrete Panel (FCP). It automatically manufactures the FCP's formwork without any error with the design shape. At this time, the concrete nozzle based on the 3D printing technology is developed and the concrete is precisely extruded into the manufactured form to prevent the deformation of the formwork that can occur due to the concrete load. Therefore, in this study, the requirements for the development of 3D printing concrete nozzles for FCP manufacturing are analyzed. Based on the analyzed requirements, the first nozzle was developed. Such equipment is easy to shorten construction period and cost reduction in the atypical construction field, and is expected to be utilized as basic 3D printing equipment.

A case study is a beforehand research to develope 3D architectural design guide line for building and construction. For this case study, the research investigates several cases around world such as Building Information Modeling Guide Series of U.S. GSA(General Service Administration), BIM/IFC User Guide of IAI Germany, IDM(Information Delivery Manual) of IAI Norway, CORENet of Singapore the Ministry of National Development with Building and Construction Authority, and Helsinki University of Technology Auditorium Hall 600(HUT-600) of IAI Finland. The common thing of each case is using IFC for sharing information and interoperability in the life cycle of building. Through the case study, it shows the way how the 3D architectural design guide adapted in Korean situation.

3D printing technology is recognized as a core technology that will lead the next generation, and is a field that can have a large ripple effect if it innovates the existing construction production method. Therefore, this study deals with the development of a 3d printing system using an articulated robot for construction purposes. In this system, ABB robot was used to control the developed cement gun accurately. The system is composed of mixer to mix cementitious materials, pump to transfer the materials, abb robot to motion control and cement gun to extrude the materials to print required construction parts. Using the system developed in this study, a suitable mix ratio of cementitious materials was found and successively printed a 1m high structure that demonstrated possibility of printing structures using 3d printer. In the future, we plan to build a foundation for automated construction through research on construction methods and materials that can be continuously layered for the system.

In the case of free-form buildings, it is difficult to reuse the form for panel production because the shape and size of the interior and exterior panels of the building are different. In general, it is a free-form concrete panel (FCP) production technology using the existing plywood formwork, and the form is produced in a different shape each time and is discarded after only one use. The production of these disposable forms requires enormous resources, including materials, labor and time. Hence, it is necessary to develop innovative forms that can be reused for sustainable FCP construction. In this study, a technology has been developed that combines 3D Plastering Technique (3DPT) to produce FCP. By applying this technology to free-form building projects, the time and cost required for FCP production can be reduced. However, specific studies on the production process for this technology have not been done yet. Therefore, the objective of this study is a basic study of free-form concrete panel production process using 3D plastering technique.

The purpose of this study is to derive the cause of the quantity difference and present the considerations when take-off rebar quantity based on BIM model by comparing the quantity of rebar based on BIM model with 2D drawing. This research was limited to take-off the quantity of rebars in the building frame work, and after take-off the quantity of rebars by 3D modeling the 2D drawing of the target building with Revit, the quantity difference was compared with 2D-based software. Therefore, when take-off the quantity of rebars based on the BIM model, instead of take-off the existing 2D-based quantity premium proportion, according to general structural consider development length, lap splice length, covering thickness, reinforcing bars and spacing. In the future, this study is expected to contribute to improving the accuracy of BIM-based frame construction quantity take-off.
