  • BACnet(Building Automation and Control networks) is a standard data communication protocol designed specifically for building automation and control systems. BACnet provides BACnet/IP Protocol for data communication through the internet. BACnet device transmits BACnet broadcast messages and BACnet/IP messages using conventional IP technologies. Specially, BBMD(BACnet Broadcasting Management Device) is used to deliver BACnet broadcast messages. In this study, we propose a mechanism of fault tolerant BBMD in the BACnet/IP protocol. The Fault Tolerant BBMD mechanism(FTBM) improves the connectivity of BACnet/IP networks by inheriting the operation of BBMD in the networks. The FTBM is implemented with added functions to the original BACnet/IP protocol so that it can be applied together with original BACnet/IP devices. We also prove the FTBM's backward compatibility with original BACnet/IP protocol using experimental analysis.

  • The construction industry kept lower level of the technology and productivity improvement than any other kinds of industry. But in most analysis of previous construction work which promoted the productivity of construction, the analysis process has only developed by the economical efficiency or the time studies through work sampling in construction field, So We suggest motion analysis as a tool to solve these problems. Spacially, this study find out productivity improvement method of steel frame fabrication works with using motion analysis. If the result of this study were to be applied to the actual construction field, it will be of great help for Building Construction Automation.

  • Nowadays, social environment is rapidly changed toward globalization and information age, and which demands the new paradigm for active utilization of information system in the field of education and many others. The effort to adapt tele-communication technique to educational facilities and the planning to make virtual university come true are needed immediately. Intelligent Building system should be applied to educational facilities to cope with the changing and progressing building system. As a result of the surveying eleven domestic universities, it was found that library management system, administration automation system and office automation system were already introduced, but campus infrastructure such as network system and tele-communication system between buildings in campus have been constructed now. As the conclusion of this study, impeding factors and improvement direction for active utilization of intelligent building systems in university facilities were presented.

  • Apartment building site planning is one of time consuming and labor-intensive tasks in architectural design field, due to its complexity in zoning regulations, building codes, local restrictions, and site-specific conditions. In other words, the process can be seen as a very complicated mathematical function with layers of variables and parameters, which ironically can be automated using computational methods on parametric tools. In this paper, a practical method of automating site planning of an apartment complex has been proposed by utilizing parametric approaches in Rhino 3D and Grasshopper. Two primary parameters, building heights and positions, determine the efficacy of building layouts under all regulatory standards, thus testing out numerous combinations of the two will produce some successful layout alternatives. For this, equation solver has been used for iterating the parametric model to sort out meaningful results among others. It also has been proven that the proposed process significantly reduced the time in site planning down to less than an hour on most cases, and many successful alternatives could be obtained by using multiple computers. Post evaluation processes such as day light and view shed analysis helped sort out the best performing ones out of functioning alternatives.

  • The main idea of this study is to propose a BIM-based automation system drawing up a report of energy conservation plan in the architecture division. In order to obtain a building permit, an energy conservation plan must be prepared for buildings with a total floor area of 500m2 or more under the current law. Currently, it is adopted as a general method to complete a report by obtaining data and drawings necessary for an energy conservation plan through manual work and input them directly into the verification system. This method takes a lot of effort and time in the design phase which ultimately increases the initial cost of the business, including the services of companies specialized in the environmental field. However, in preparation for mandatory BIM work process in the future, it is necessary to introduce BIM-based automatic creation system that has an advantage for shortening the whole process to enable rapid permission of energy-saving designs for buildings. There may be many methods of automation, but this study introduces how to build an application using Dynamo of Revit, in terms of utilizing BIM, and write an energy conservation plan by automatic completion of report through Dynamo and Excel's VBA algorithm, which can save time and cost in preparing the report of energy conservation plan compared with the manual process. Also we have insisted that the digital transformation of architectural process is a necessary for an efficient use of our automation system in the current energy conservation plan workflow.

  • An automation of standardized rebar shop drawing is necessary for easy application by improving workability, prompt preparation to field change request and easy revisions of shop drawing. Through investigating problem of current rebar shop drawing, we found that standardization of reinforcing detail, standardization of rebar expression and automation of rebar shop drawing program for the sake of designer is needed. We will investigate disagreement of reinforcing detail between building code and how worker build structure for standardization of reinforcing detail, demands of companies participated in rebar process for standardization of rebar expression and proper algorithm with selectable level of inputting data for automation of rebar shop drawing program for the sake of designer.

  • Recently, the building construction industry has been forced to cope with lack of skilled labor. A robot-based construction automation system should help overcome crucial troubles which may be caused by this phenomenon. In particular, it is vital to propose design for automation (DFA). Quality function deployment (QFD) is applied a systematic aid in determining the design reflecting customer's needs. This study employs the QFD approach to plan the component designs of an effective automation process, and presents the development process of DFA with an illustrative project. As a result, the study identifies the developers' design requirements for automated construction and weights them by their importance indices.
