Recently, research on digital twins to generate digital information and manage construction in real-time using advanced technology is being conducted actively. However, in the construction industry, it is difficult to optimize and apply digital technology in real-time due to the nature of the construction industry in which information is constantly fluctuating. In addition, inaccurate information on the topography of construction projects is a major challenge for earthmoving processes. In order to ultimately improve the cost-effectiveness of construction projects, both construction quality and productivity should be addressed through efficient construction information management in large-scale earthworks projects. Therefore, in this study, a 3D digital map-based AR site management work support system for higher efficiency and accuracy of site management was proposed by using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) in wide earthworks construction sites to generate point cloud data, building a 3D digital map through acquisition and analysis of on-site sensor-based information, and performing the visualization with AR at the site By utilizing the 3D digital map-based AR site management work support system proposed in this study, information is able to be provided quickly to field managers to enable an intuitive understanding of field conditions and immediate work processing, thereby reducing field management sluggishness and limitations of traditional information exchange systems. It is expected to contribute to the improvement of productivity by overcoming factors that decrease productivity in the construction industry and the improvement of work efficiency at construction sites.

Recent the free-formed architecture is smearing as a trend with the development of the digital equipment and technologies. The development of new method based on digital technology is required for the free-formed structure,, because the conventional construction methods are limited to shorten the construction period and to ensure the construction quality. Particularly, the development of the new method for the free-formed concrete structure is important. In this study, the developed method of the T-shape lightweight steel fabricated using CNC can control the geometries of the free-formed concrete structure based on the digital design. Also, new method is effective to ensure the precision of the construction and economic than the conventional construction methods.

Through the case study, we surveyed an applicability of digital fabrication in irregular-shaped building construction project. By digital fabrication, we mean is a precision manufacturing method has been used in aircraft, ship and car manufacturing industry. We collected construction-completed "LotteWorld Tower Podium" project data and analyzed its process in terms of construction quality andduration. The result shows that digital fabrication is considered a competitive technology that enabled to complete the project in seven months within 3mm surface curvature threshold. The digitalfabrication is expected to apply on a number of irregular-shaped building construction project.

In the construction industry, construction management system using information technology has been applied diversely to increase productivity. Although IT device such as PDA, RFID, Barcode, wireless network and web camera has been introduced in construction site, the usage of these device is restricted, because these cause engineer to do additional work. The suggested process using Digital Pen in this study, which can lessen engineer's additional work, get defect data promptly. Also accumulated data is utilized effectively for analyzing construction site. The purpose of this study is to introduce Digital Pen System as a means of construction data acquisition for improving productivity.

The digitalization of tasks for smart construction requires the smooth exchange of digital data among stakeholders to be effective, but there is a lack of digital data standardization and utilization methods. This paper proposes a digital construction information structure to transform information from road construction sites into digital formats. The study targets include significant tasks, such as work planning, scheduling, safety management, and quality control. The key to the construction information structure is separating construction information into objects and activities, defining unit works by combining these two types of information to ensure flexibility in representing and modifying construction information. The objects and activities have their respective hierarchical structures, which are defined flexibly to match the actual content. This structure achieves both efficiency and detail. The pilot structure was applied to highway construction projects and implemented digitally using general formats. This study enables the digitalization of road construction processes that closely resemble reality, accelerating the digital transformation of the civil engineering industry by developing a digital twin of the entire road construction lifecycle.

This study reviewed the existing legal framework governing construction supervision practices and conducted a survey of expert groups to identify and propose strategies for facilitating the digital transformation of construction supervision processes, with the goal of enhancing the quality and safety of construction projects. The research underscored the necessity for digital transformation to improve quality, safety, and efficiency of construction supervision. Additionally, it highlighted the need for greater consistency and clarity in terminology related to construction supervision. The study also presented recommendations for improvement, which included: establishing a structured supervision checklist to ensure safety and compliance, establishing a specialized construction supervision corporations subject to qualification screening, and introducing evaluation criteria to encourage the adoption of digital transformation technologies in construction supervision. The findings of this study are intended to serve as the foundation for future policy and regulatory frameworks aimed at promoting the digital transformation of construction supervision practices.

Starting from Guggenheim Bilbao Museum in 1997, it has been increased steadily that complex geometry buildings using digital designs and construction process. Since 2010, the domestic Freeform design has been widely used for buildings such as Dongdaemoon Design Plaza, Seoul City Hall, Tri-Bowl, and etc. But there are many defects such as the increased cost and period of construction, and the declined quality of construction because of the lack of optimized method and engineering experiences. Therefore, this study has an effort to review case study of the recent freeform buildings and construction methods using digital fabrications. And this study proposed the improve method for the construction quality for freeform buildings.

Construction site management involves overseeing tasks from the construction phase to the maintenance stage, and digitalization of construction sites is necessary for digital construction site management. In this study, we aim to conduct research on object recognition at construction sites using drones. Images of construction sites captured by drones are reconstructed into BIM (Building Information Modeling) models, and objects are recognized after partially rendering the models using artificial intelligence. For the photorealistic rendering of the BIM models, both traditional filtering techniques and the generative adversarial network (GAN) model were used, while the YOLO (You Only Look Once) model was employed for object recognition. This study is expected to provide insights into the research direction of digital construction site management and help assess the potential and future value of introducing artificial intelligence in the construction industry.
