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.

IFC(Industry Foundation Classes) is used for information exchange in BIM-based collaboration process, and it does not secure reliability of information exchange results between fields due to structural limitations. In the end, it is a realistic problem that we have to use specialized BIM software by field, and we can not secure smooth interoperability in the process of information exchange and change. This study was conducted to find ways to secure the interoperability of BIM work between architecture and structure fields by utilizing Open Source provided by software developers to solve these problems. First, through expert survey and in-depth interview, information and improvement factors required in the process of collaboration between architecture and structure were derived. Second, in order to find a solution to the improvement factors, existing studies related to Open-API and domestic and overseas APIs were investigated and analyzed. Third, Ad-On was developed to secure interoperability by using Open API, mainly BIM S/W, which is mainly used in each field. As a result of the study, the possibility of securing interoperability through the management of the design change history between fields was confirmed by using API. It is judged that the application range of API will be expanded to the construction and maintenance field in the future. Therefore, in order to increase the usability for application diffusion, further research on interface improvement through user-centered verification is needed.

Many studies on BIM-based design, construction and operation have already been conducted on roads, railways, etc., but BIM research in the ports and harbors is still lacking. This research develops BIM Library and Technical contents focused on practical usability of ports and harbors infrastructure. We have developed technical content by applying various User Interfaces and workflows, considering the characteristics of ports and harbors design. In order to examine the practical utility of the developed library and contents, we tried modeling the breakwater using these. As a result, we confirmed that collaboration of BIM library and technical contents could significantly improve the productivity of BIM design by increasing library usage and automating repetitive tasks.

As construction project becomes big, PMIS has been progressed and developed as collaboration tool between project participants. But recently it has been transformed from collaboration function tool to one of formal systems, and used as a simple report or just database system. Many researches have been actively studying how to combine BIM to PMIS for solving the problem. There need transferability from PMIS to BIM, however, data size is getting big because of complexity in building size. Many users experience inconvenience in slow loading speed. Therefore, this study suggested an improvement method for high transferability by utilizing virtual technology of IT industry and analyses its suitability.

As a way to improve productivity and integrated project delivery in construction industry, BIM(building Information Modeling) using IT technique is being studied and applied recently. S-BIM application Process was established that enable efficient work through Structural BIM detailed Model in consideration of the collaboration among relevant fields. This study has the objective applying S-BIM technique to enable effective Cost Analysis in initial design phase and presenting the method for practical works using Construction Cost Analysis Process based on S-BIM.

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.

Recent AEC industry, is introducing BIM based design process which mainly focuses on collaboration and integration. Since BIM has characteristic of utilizing several design libraries in various fields across the AEC industry, obtaining BIM libraries are essential for introducing and applying the BIM successfully. Thus, creating BIM libraries and guidelines for various fields are needed. BIM libraries can be categorized into disciplines such as architectural, structural, mechanical and electrical industries. Especially, companies in mechanical industry possesses design data for creating BIM library. Due to the fact, we standardized the property information for BIM libraries. And for BIM library production, we have developed a program which uses neutral format to convert 3D MCAD data designed by $NX^{TM}$ into $Revit^{TM}$ Family. Finally, we developed a program that merges property information to Revit Family file.

The purpose of this research is to explore the necessity of utilizing IPD methods along BIM based project operation in domestic construction market. IPD is relatively new project delivery methods focused on the collaboration of stockholders based on BIM technology. IPD is focused on the multiparty contract process rather than multiple bilateral contracts under Traditional Project Delivery Methods. The research method is to investigate the IPD standard contract documents, successful IPD project cases in the U.S. The research results are as follows. The model for an IPD standard contract needs to be developed for the application to a real construction projects. Various types of IPD model contract need to be developed to accommodate the requirements of industry and stockholders in Korea.

The study presents the way to maximize the functionality and the effectiveness of the BIM model, and the type of information used in the overall process of construction projects. If the designing process is the generator of architecture information, then the step-by-step BIM model created in the process is the container for formation and property information. BIM written rules and methods are proposed in order for the architectural BIM model structured in the early stages of designing to go through a process of review and collaboration, and to be seamlessly linked to the basic designing steps. Accordingly, the BIM model construction and operation strategy suggested will substantially reduce the work of designing, structuring, and collaborating, that will be shared and linked.
