Because the current disaster management task is being processed by using a separated operation system and an insufficient information system by each division, construction facilities suffer great damage by disaster. This research has classified the disaster management business phase and information by each phase through analyzing the existing disaster management information and business process. Then, it has built a disaster management information breakdown structure for integrating of individual disaster information, and also established a standard XML (eXtensible Markup Language) schema of disaster management electronic documents for a real-time utilization. The suggested methods in this research are verified by developing a manual system of electronic type. The disaster management IETM developed in this study provides the consistency for processing the disaster management tasks and the prevention of information omission. And it can be used as a electronic decision making tool for providing of integrated disaster management information.

Recently, construction industry has an interest on the maintenance area of construction facilities to maximize utilization of the each facility. This study suggests an interactive electronic technical manual for bridge facility to improve quality and to ensure safety of the bridge facility. The improvement method of bridge maintenance system consists of the basic information ell the facilities, maintenance manuals and measurement system. And the suggested system is based on the facilities, maintenance manuals and measurement system. And the suggested system is based on IETM (Interactive Electronic Technical Manual), and this study defines and develops a $BF\_IETM (Bridge Facility\_ITEM$ as the bridge maintenance system.

Interactive electronic technical manual(IETM) for construction projects means an electronic tool that regulations and specifications related to construction method or maintenance process ale described by electronic book type. It has a meaning of integrated information system that includes virtual reality(VR), 3D animation and image contents for representing real construction information so that user can easily understand the construction situation and maintenance process. The basic information and technical manuals of construction facilities are being written as paper documents in our construction industry. As the result, the information management in the maintenance phase of construction projects is inefficient, and maintenance cost is being increased. This study attempts to improve the lack of understanding about construction IETM through the analysis of necessity and unique function of construction IETM comparing with the IETMS in other industry, Finally, this study shows a scenario of construction IErM for mitigating natural disaster of construction facilities to verify applicability of IETM.

The current disaster management manual is being utilized as a book or document-based type. It causes a low applicability and interoperability in practical business because each information has a different document format and it is difficult to recycle those information as common disaster information. The information reading by text type without electronic data and visual object also has a limitations in guaranteeing a quickness of disaster management business. Accordingly, the electronic document management system with visual information is necessary and the system needs to tie framed by XML schema because the electronic document standard will be changed from DTD to XML schema. This study attempts to develop a procedural methodology of an electronic document management system based on XML for disaster management. The applicability of the proposed results is verified by the simulated scenario.
