The purpose of this study was to develop a process management system to manage ingot fabrication and the quality of the ingot. The ingot is the first manufactured material of wafers. Operating data (trace parameters) were collected on-line but quality data (measurement parameters) were measured by sampling inspection. The quality parameters were applied to evaluate the quality. Thus, preprocessing was necessary to extract useful information from the quality data. First, statistical methods were employed for data generation, and then modeling was accomplished, using the generated data, to improve the performance of the models. The function of the models is to predict the quality corresponding to the control parameters. The dynamic polynomial neural network (DPNN) was used for data modeling that used the ingot fabrication data.

Automated rebar fabrication, which requires effective information exchange between model designers and fabricators, has brought the integration and interoperability of data from different sources to the notice of both academics and industry practitioners. Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) was one of the most commonly used data formats to represent the semantic information of prefabricated components in buildings, whereas the data format utilized by rebar fabrication machine is BundesVereinigung der Bausoftware (BVBS), which is a numerical data structure exchanging reinforcement information through ASCII encoded files. Seamless transformation between IFC and BVBS empowers the automated rebar fabrication and improve the construction productivity. In order to improve data interoperability between IFC and BVBS, this study presents an IFC extension based on the attributes required by automated rebar fabrication machines with the help of Information Delivery Manual (IDM) and Model View Definition (MVD). IDM is applied to describe and display the information needed for the design, construction and operation of projects, whereas MVD is a subset of IFC schema used to describe the automated rebar fabrication workflow. Firstly, with a rich pool of vocabularies practitioners, OmniClass is used in information exchange between IFC and BVBS, providing a hierarchy classification structure for reinforcing elements. Then, using International Framework for Dictionaries (IFD), the usage of each attribute is defined in a more consistent manner to assist the data mapping process. Besides, in order to address missing information within automated fabrication process, a schematic data mapping diagram has been made to deliver IFC information from BIM models to BVBS format for better data interoperability among different software agents. A case study based on the data mapping will be presented to demonstrate the proposed IFC extension and how it could assist/facilitate the information management.

SFFS(Solid Freeform Fabrication System) is commercializing to rapid prototyping concept in world-wide some corporations including the States, have much technological problems yet and need new mode for agile solid freeform fabrication as well as prototyping. In this paper, we design an automatic control algorithm that the cutting path of laser beam, on the SFFS, is controlled with constant speed. The designed algorithm for constant-speed path control is implemented and experimented in the $CAFL^{VM}$ (Computer Aided Fabrication of Lamination for Various Material) system, the new SFFS which is developed in this paper. Its process is an automated fabrication method in which a 3D object is constructed from STL(SToreoLithography) 2D data, derived from CAD 3D image, by sequentially laminating the part cross-sections. The constant-speed path control is started from the STL data. After STL file is modified in data format to be available for control. The fabrication of the 2D part is, with constant speed, conducted from the 23 position data by laser beam. we confirm its high-performance through experiment results from the application into $CAFL^{VM}$ system.

Recently, the free-form buildings are continuously increasing in the world. However, due to the shortage of experience and technology in the project of the free-form buildings, problems such as increase of construction cost, increase of air and deterioration of construction quality are occurring. In this study, data on the 27 free-form projects in Korea and abroad using digital fabrication were collected through the journals, reports, articles, and websites of the institutes and case studies were conducted based on the collected data. Based on the following case analysis, we conducted evaluation of case data analysis based on the knowledge domain specified in PMBOK. Evaluation of case data analysis shows that the application of digital fabrication is divided into positive and negative effects for each knowledge area in the free-form building project. Using the results of the analysis, we can confirm the knowledge field showing the positive effect on the free-form building project by using digital fabrication. However, the data scale of the project using the digital fabrication is not realized at present and research is insufficient. In Korea, a small number of specialists were interviewed and verified because experts do not exist much in korea. Therefore, this study is expected to suggest the necessity of applying digital fabrication in the free-form building projects in the construction industry.

Data-driven engineering is crucial for information delivery between design, fabrication, assembly, and maintenance of prefabricated structures. Design for manufacturing and assembly (DfMA) is a critical methodology for prefabricated bridge structures. In this study, a novel concept of digital engineering model that combined existing knowledge of DfMA with object-oriented parametric modeling technologies was developed. Three-dimensional (3D) geometry models and their data models for each phase of a construction project were defined for information delivery. Digital design models were used for conceptual design, including aesthetic consideration and possible variation during fabrication and assembly. The seismic performance of a bridge pier was evaluated by linking the design parameters to the calculated moment-curvature curves. Control parameters were selected to consider the tolerance control and revision of the digital models. Digitalized fabrication of the prefabricated members was realized using the digital fabrication model with G-code for a concrete printer or a robot. The fabrication error was evaluated and the design digital models were updated. The revised fabrication models were used in the preassembly simulation to guarantee constructability. For the maintenance of the bridge, the as-built information was defined for the prefabricated bridge piers. The results of this process revealed that data-driven information delivery is crucial for lifecycle management of prefabricated bridge piers.

Extraction of fabrication documents is very important because it provides information related to tasks of fabrication and construction. Therefore, in the case of a prefabricated member such as a steel structure, it is necessary to improve the productivity of fabrication documents through 3D BIM. However, research and evidence data on direct comparison analysis of 3D BIM-based documents extraction versus 2D CAD-based documents extraction are hard to find. Thus, this study focuses on productivity analysis of 3D BIM based fabrication documents extraction. In this study, the productivity data of fabrication documents extraction for module construction of EPC project was analyzed. For the productivity analysis, a case study on the fabrication documents of Module A (1,965 sheets) and Module B (1,216 sheets) was conducted. Fabrication documents for each module include general arrangement drawing, assembly drawing, single part drawing and single plate drawing. Comparison of 2D CAD based fabrication documents extraction and 3D BIM based fabrication documents extraction, the productivity for the entire work was improved from 17 hours to 16 hours for Module A and 12 hours to 7 hours for Module B. Especially, the productivity of the assembly drawings, which occupies a large part of the fabrication documents, was improved by about 48.75% from the total time required from 281 hours to 144 hours.

New Fabrication Facility (FAB) construction is performed with Building Information Modeling (BIM) based design. The BIM design data keep updated during the FAB construction. To improve fast-track construction management, a Fabrication Facility Augmented Reality (FABAR) was developed. This study introduces a FABAR system development process and shows performance evaluation results of the FABAR prototype system. The FABAR is implemented with three major modules: Augmented Reality (AR) visualization unit (Room-box) to transfer big BIM data to AR data, AR registration and tracking unit to match AR with real scape and to keep AR coordination in real, and AR data management unit to enhance usability. The prototype performance results were as follows: visualization of design BIM data via AR within 24 hours, precise AR registration and tracking registration, and appropriate usability to support FAB construction management at site. The results indicate that the FABAR is applicable for FAB construction management. Especially, the BIM data transformation method using Room-box in this study signifies a new construction management approach using fluctuating BIM design data in the fast track construction condition.
