Becoming construction projects larger and more complicated, and utilizing more varied and complex contracting and delivery systems in the industry, integrating information and managing constructability from project inception to completion became the most critical tasks for the successful project management. However, current industry practices of constructability analysis which are too much dependent on field engineers and managers' experiences, are not performed efficiently and also not managed effectively. Then the scope, method, and procedure in performing analysis tasks are not certain as well as not systematic, In addition, due to using 2D based drawings and documents, information required at project phases for the analysis is inconsistent and inaccurate. This study aims to suggest the use of BIM technology and functions for solving various problems of current constructability practices. In particular, constructability analysis tasks performed at design and construction stages are identified and their adaptability, applicability, and benefits of BIM are investigated through interviews on constructability and BIM professionals in the industry.

Achieving high productivity and constructability are very important issues in construction industry. Study on constructability have been conducted actively, and many researches referred that improving constructability can enhance cost, quality, schedule, productivity and so on. However, there are lack of quantitative analysis, since most studies have proved correlation between productivity and constructability using questionaries and by case studies. Also, researches are mostly about specific detail scope of work to improve constructability, thus it is hard to apply constructability factors on various work in construction. In this paper, will deduct general factors affecting on constructability and evaluate effects of factors affecting on each work. Furthermore this paper will verify impact of factors affecting on productivity by multi regression anlaysis using actual data sets of high-rise building construction site.

A nuclear power plant construction project normally involves a large construction work of which the total project cost is over 5 trillion Won, Such a large-scale construction project has the risks of schedule delay and quality degradation due to increase in project cost, because designs are changed due to design errors. The reasons for design changes during installation are 1) insufficient engineering capability of the owner, 2) information discontinuance due to the multiple package method, and 3) inefficient constructability review processes. Accordingly, this study proposes, through problem analysis, a method of developing a constructability review system that utilizes constructability review processes and a data-based technology (3D modeling) that are optimized for nuclear power plant construction projects. It also presents a method of establishing a system for reviewing constructability in which constructability review processes and a Database (3D model, Schedule, Design change Items) are linked each other.

Recently, as the shape and function of high-rise buildings have become more complex, engineering for reflecting the constructability in the design phase has the increasing importance. However, engineering tasks are not performed at the appropriate level and timing in most projects, which leads to inefficient work such as design changes and reworks. Hence, this study investigated the constructability knowledge, design elements, and supporting tools required to conduct engineering tasks related to temporary work at the design phase, and also analyzed the relationship between these factors using the correlation analysis. As a result, when the engineering tasks are applied in the design phase, constructability knowledge related to 'construction method and process' is the most important and the design factor related to 'layout/arrangement' should be considered as the most important factor. Based on the results of this study, the project participants can efficiently use necessary constructability knowledge during the design phase and facilitate effective decision-making and design alternatives for enhancing constructability.

The orders of Design-Build Delivery System (DBDS) in a large and public construction project have been increasing. Single Source Responsibility (SSR) for design and construction, which contributes to quality improvement of design and construction, has been performed. The DBDS performs SSR for design and construction, but, it has not maximized effect because of the dissatisfied alternative analysis procedures which are based on constructability evaluation and the information system in the design step. In this research, Constructability Evaluation Factors (CEFs) that must be evaluated, investigated, and reflected in the basic design step for design-build projects. The CEF proposed and the business process of each conductor has been systematized. To propose constructability evaluation factors, first classify drawing information by the constructability evaluation sphere. CEFs must be proposed to evaluate factors according to interference among work items. Second, applicable CEFs must be classified by preference ranking and weight. Third, the values of constructability factors in accordance with building elements and work items, need to be calculated. Finally, the CEFs proposal will support rational decision making, design cost reduction, and quality improvement through the values for constructability of building elements and work items.

This study is a study on the application of a horizontal excavation machine system to improve constructability. In this study, the structural stability of non-covered temporary facilities was evaluated by comparing field measurements and numerical analysis. In addition, the appropriateness of the measurement results was analyzed by comparing and analyzing the results of numerical analysis with the analysis results applying the Gaussian probability density function to the measurement results. In this study, structural safety and long-term durability of the linkage were analyzed based on numerical analysis. As a result of the study, it was analyzed that the non-open cut method (H.A.S. method) of this study secures structural safety and constructability as the behavior in the actual construction process is more safe than the numerical analysis results, even if the uncertainty of the ground condition is taken into account.

Aesthetic design guidelines of bridges were developed in many countries. As iconic structures, bridges need to be attractive and durable as they serve many generations. In this paper, a new design process of concrete structures considering 3D shapes and texture was proposed. The 3D design needs to consider function, economy, advanced technology, tradition and local culture. 3D printers enable the combination of artistic design and engineering design for concrete structures. Parametric modeling with iconic design was utilized to produce 3D formworks. As a pilot project, a railway bridge girder was designed and the proposed technologies were applied. Detail requirements to improve constructability and quality of concrete surfaces were derived. From the pilot applications, design guidelines were suggested.

This study suggested a new model in consideration of long life and constructability of apartment house suggested in the former part. New model suggested the possibility of cost saving based on the idea that people trend to reject because of the recognition that the new model would cost a lot of expense which work as the barrier for the expansion and distribution at the local market so as to prepare the ground for its activation. The Study was aimed at verifying the possibility of cost saving through comparing it with the existing standard apartment house system centered on the skeleton and cladding system among the new structural design models suggested in the former part. Assuming that these existing standard both models should be changed structural design into new model system, the quantity volume, cost and construction period along with the alteration of finished materials between two models were compared altogether. Simultaneously BIM library was built for easy taking-off bill of quantity and consideration of working methodology for construction working cycle, which was translated into construction cost so as to derive the cost of the two subject systems to be counted. Through the analysis, it was concluded that new model would secure variability in the future and constructability along with shortening the construction period (29%) and achieve cost saving (13%) of construction against the those of existing model.
