  • This research presents a strategy and information system to manage the logistics of delivery ready mixed concrete (RMC) under the integrated environment of PMIS+RFID. PMIS is system tool and technique used in construction sectors to delivery information. Information that can be extracted electronically in real time is more valuable than data gathered and maintained manually. RFID technology can help to improve data accuracy through supply chains and by identifying products and objects at specific points through automatic identification. The objectives of these two implementations can be able to improve the efficiency of logistics management for RMC truck process, and to verify the technical and practical feasibility of PMIS+RFID application in construction industry. This may be realistic given the dynamics of daily activities on construction sites. This research is focused on examples on real world case study, applications and research theme related and connected to PMIS+RFID technology. It demonstrated that PMIS+RFID technology has been automatically implemented and has shown process information about the RMC truck and the overall status information about it, both quickly and accurately. As a result, the construction site where needs 300 $m^3$ pouring (50 RMC trucks) per day can be reduced total 250 minutes. Moreover, this time saving is related to the labour cost saving. From the case studies, RFID+PMIS system was proven in terms of effectiveness rather than current method.

  • 공사비정보와 일정정보는 사업을 관리하는데 있어 매우 중요한 정보로 이들이 연계활용되어야 공정공사비 관리를 원활하게 진행할 수 있다. 그러나 국내의 실정은 공사비가 내역체계 기반으로 관리됨에 따라 설계사에서 작성되어 시설, 부위, 공간 등의 정보를 갖고 있던 수량정보가 내역체계 기반으로 전환되면서 정보들을 상실하고 시공사에서는 다시 물량분개라는 작업을 통해 다시 시설, 부위, 공간 등의 정보를 부여하는 작업이 발생하고 있다. 이에 도로분야 사업을 대상으로 작업분류체계(WBS)를 그 연계방안으로 제시하고 작업분류체계 기반 공사비 작성을 통해 설계사에서 작성된 정보를 시공사에서까지 활용할 수 있도록 하고자 한다. 본 사업에서는 이러한 작업분류체계 공사비 작성을 위한 지원도구 개발을 위해 업무 프로세스 검토, 지원도구 활용 공사비 작성, 시험적용을 통한 지원도구 검증을 수행할 계획이다. 이를 통해 내역정보와 공정정보의 연계가 실현되고, 효율적인 공사비 관리의 기반을 제공할 수 있다.

  • The active promotion of construction technology application, aimed at cost reduction, construction time shortening, and performance enhancement during the implementation of Value Engineering (VE) in design, is underway. However, in the process of deriving VE ideas, it is common to simply reuse VE ideas from similar past construction projects, and the application of construction technology is often insufficient. Therefore, in this study, we intend to establish a database linking construction technology information with Building Information Modeling (BIM) models to activate the application of construction technology in the process of deriving VE ideas.

  • We study the RFID network system in a construction site, and study the connection method between the RFID network system and the integrated information system of construction material. Moreover, we developed a prototype of the construction site RFID server for the management of construction materials and performed the pilot application in a construction site. Through the pilot application, it was known that the proposed RFID network system can be more usefully applied in the construction sites. The results of the pilot application show that the RFID network system is faster, more accurate, and more reliable than the existing system of information management and achieves improvement in construction productivity.

  • The architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry is beginning to utilize Building Information Modeling (BIM), benefiting from the resulting improved visualization and productivity, better coordination of construction drawings, building documents that contain embedded links to virtual information, faster delivery, and lower costs. However, construction firms often face challenges when reorganizing their company structure to take full advantage of these benefits. This paper proposes an organizational structure that will enable engineering-construction firms to successfully adopt and implement BIM for major construction projects. A case study research method is utilized based on in-depth interviews with four BIM directors and vice presidents charged with BIM adoption, implementation and education. Organizational transformation challenges and recommendations are discussed in detail for those considering implementing BIM in the engineering-construction industry. Topics such as organizational changes in the firm, costs and benefits of BIM implementation, strategies of BIM implementation (execution) plan, BIM education, risks and opportunities associated with BIM, BIM software, contract methods, human resource management and new hires, and the future implementation and direction of BIM are discussed in detail.

  • Information sharing is the main purpose of realizing interoperability between the application domains of Geographic Information System (GIS) and Building Information Modeling (BIM). This paper presents and describes the workflow of BIM-GIS interoperability for highway traffic information sharing. An innovative and automatic Dynamo process was presented to transfer the shapes and attributes of the shapefile from GIS to BIM. On the basis of the transformed BIM model, the detailed traffic data was added and expressed in the form of families and sheets to expand traffic information. Then, the shapes of the model were swept as solid geometries in the BIM environment applying Dynamo. The expanded BIM model was transferred back to the GIS system using the Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) scheme. The mutual communication between BIM and GIS was achieved based on Dynamo and IFC. This paper provides a convenient and feasible way to realize BIM-GIS interoperability for highway traffic information sharing according to the characteristics of highways in terms of graphic expression and model creation.

  • The DfS(Design for Safety) concept is expected to be widely used to promote pro-active construction safety management. It will open up tremendous opportunities for tile owner, designer, and constructor to prevent accidents in construction projects. Construction safety management using the DfS concept is regarded as the most difficult job for the owner, designer and contractor to undertake, because an information model using the DfS concept is not utilized as a tool to support pro-active construction safety management. Therefore, there has been a growing need toward an information model during the design process ai recent practice of construction safety management have emphasized the significance of the pre-construction phase of projects. The objective of this study is to develop the construction safety information model being composed of conceptual, logical, and computerized information models as the tool that helps owner, designer and contractor find out and communicate as well as understand the hazardous nature of the construction projects during the design process.

  • Recently, extensive research has been conducted on classification systems for managing a huge amount of information with various froms in the construction industry. Classification Systems such as ISO/DIS 12006-2 and MasterFormathave been proposed as international standards, and accommodating them for Korean situation the Korean Ministry of Construction and Transportation has proposed the Unified Construction Information Classification System. As the construction industry becomes bigger and more complicated, however, the need for higher-level semantic representation of construction information has been recognized. In this study we develop a prototype ontology based upon the Unified Construction Information Classification and suggest a practical way of applying an ontology technology to the construction information systems. An ontology is a useful tool to effectively manageconstruction information and to support interoperability among heterogeneous information systems by clarifying the semantic relationship between concepts.
