The importance of using construction data is increasing in accordance with the recent trend in the smart construction. However, construction project and maintenance information is distributed on the web, and the existing BIM(Building Information Modeling) information exchange and linking method using IFC(Industry Foundation Classes) cannot support connection with BIM data and web resources. This study aims to establish the BIM-based port facility data integration system using linked data(LD) technology in order to integrate BIM and heterogeneous data in the port maintenance domain. To this end, the port BIM-based ifcOWL and port facility maintenance ontology were designed, and LD was built for the BIM and maintenance information of Busan New Port 2-1 Pier3, a BIM pilot project. In addition, service prototypes such as search, statistics and SPARQL(SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language) endpoint functions were implemented using the issued LD. The LD-based information utilization system is expected to improve the reusability of information by converting the existing closed information system into an open system and BIM and maintenance data as a web resource in a standard format.

Building information modeling refers to combination or set of technologies and organizational solutions that are expected to increase collaboration in the construction industry and to improve the productivity and quality of the design, construction, and maintenance of buildings. For enhanced communication among project participants, various information which BIM model usually includes is provided, furthermore data which contain exchange of unstructured information is needed. If the extension of BIM standard file format for practical use of design Issue information about collaborative design process is fulfilled, the productivity and quality of design will be improved.

Modular technology has become a major issue of the construction industries to enhance their productivity. Modular bridge construction generally requires the collaboration between the contractor, designer, fabricator and constructor. Therefore, a readily accessible information model based on BIM technology should be provided for their communication during a construction project life-cycle. In this study, BIM based 3D information modeling was carried out for the modular bridge pier. First, the product breakdown structure (PBS) and level of detail (LOD) of the pier were defined. Based on them, 3D models were created by using parametric modeling method. In addition, database was constructed for the exchange of geometry and property data of 3D models. Finally, application areas of 3D information model were suggested, including the quantity estimation and the 4D simulation.

Recently, BIM has been widely applying in civil engineering projects centering on the private construction industry in order to establish self guidelines for spreading in practice. However, most BIM technologies and software are based on the architectural projects. In these environments, it is not easy to apply the BIM to a infrastructure field. Even BIM standards with IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) are also focusing on architectural projects. Especially, both private and public sectors do not know about how BIM delivery system should be performed, and how such deliverable should be submitted to the government yet. Thus, we need to analyze an application level of BIM S/W (Software) in real projects and verify their interoperability. Besides, since there are not any common standards that can exchange IFC models for civil engineering projects, we have many issues in converting as-built infrastructure models into IFC and delivering their design documents to the government. Accordingly, this study aims to perform a BIM process with commercial software for real road project after a detailed design process is finished and verify interoperability between diverse BIM software for securing BIM data reliability.

Information Delivery Manual (IDM) is a documentation format for capturing the information requirements among various AEC project tasks and their software uses. The authors analyzed the structural engineering and analysis domain and were able to define its process model definition and the information flow required for the process by following the methodology stated in the IDM format. The authors believe that The manual has its potentials for further enhancements for IFC-based process integration by transferring it into a information model schema, which can be later referenced by the software applications to automatically determine which data need to be exchanged.

Modular technology has become a major issue of the construction industries to enhance their productivity. Modular bridge construction generally requires the data exchange between the contractors, designers, fabricators and constructors. Therefore, a readily accessible information model interface module based on BIM technology is essential for their communication during a project life-cycle. In this study, BIM based information model interface module for a modular pier was developed. For the information models, the PBS(Product Breakdown Structure) and LOD(Level of Development) were defined. Next, all components of a modular pier were conducted by the parametric modeling technique, and then 3D cell library interface was developed. An nterface module was also developed using VBA(Visua basic Application) for exchanging a data from 3D model library to other softwares such as Microstation, AutoCad and Excel and was connected with MS Access database. The developed information model interface module would improve the design quality of the modular pier and reduce the time and cost for design. Updated 3D information models could be utilized for the fabrication, assembly, and construction process for modular piers.

The key role in safety management is to identify any possible hazard before it occurs by identifying any possible risk factors which are critical to risk assessment. This planning/assessment process is considered to be tedious and requires a lot of attention due to the following reasons: firstly, falsework (temporary structures) in construction projects is fundamentally important. However, the installation and dismantling of those facilities are one of the high risk activities in the job sites. Secondly, temporary facilities are generally not clearly delineated on the building drawings. It is our strong belief that safety tools have to be simple and convenient enough for the jobsite people to manage them easily and be flexible for any occasions to be occurred at various degrees. In order to develop the safety assessment system, this research utilizes the BIM technology and collects important information by importing data from BIM models and use it in the planning stage.

Recently BIM is utilized to improve productivity for Life Cycle Cost of construction projects. Therefore, the establishment of BIM process by each construction project is a necessary element. However, cases and the pertinent researches that BIM process by each project is established are still not enough in Korea. The study proposed construction of BIM process through how to set up BIM application, how to organize a BIM team, how to set up a family and modeling method in the early stage. To achieve the purpose, the study examined application ability of BIM process by carrying out basic setting and modeling work through pilot study model, examination of the amount of materials and information interchange with IFC. The study attempted making a foundation of domestic BIM guideline construction through the above examination.

This paper discusses on implementation methods for providing data exchange capability of the Construction Project Lifecycle Management System (CPLM). Because most information media currently used in the construction industry are computer files, the system must be capable of handling various file types; however, The goals of PLM cannot be achieved if the contents of the files are communicated freely, which can only be achieved using a standardized information model that has comprehensive coverage of all information produced within the projects (i.e., a BlM). Several methods of adopting the model are investigated here, and a transitional implementation method for K-IFC is suggested, in which a file-based exchange backed by the BlM can evolve into object-level transactions of the BIM with not only advanced data integrity and security, but also improved communications between the project participants.

Recently, BIM has attracted attention as a technology to improve the construction productivity. The BIM standards to be applied to the BIM project are necessary for using or connecting the current 2D-based drawing standards. To develop the standard for BIM-based QTO and cost, this paper focused on using QDBEx, which was applied to road project cost management and connecting QDBEx with IFC, which is the BIM data delivery format. The IFC schema was evaluated to determine if it is possible to use the converts to the QDBEx XML file. As a result, 66% of the whole was available to connect directly, and 17% was available to connect through the processing of instance. The remaining 17% was evaluated to determine if it was available to connect. In the future, improvements in the schema will be suggested based on these results.
