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.

To survive in outdoor environments, photovoltaic modules rely on packaging materials to provide requisite durability. We analyzed the properties of encapsulant materials that are important for photovoltaic module packaging. Recently, the thickness of solar cell gets thinner to reduce the quantity of silicon. And the reduced thickness make it easy to be broken while PV module fabrication process. Solar cell's micro cracks are increasing the breakage risk over the whole value chain from the wafer to the finished module, because the wafer or cell is exposed to tensile stress during handling and processing. This phenomenon might make PV module's maximum power and durability down. So, when using thin solar cell for PV module fabrication, it is needed to optimize the material and fabrication condition which is quite different from normal thick solar cell process. Normally, gel-content of EVA sheet should be higher than 80% so PV module has long term durability. But high gel-content characteristic might cause micro-crack on solar cell. In this experiment, we fabricated several specimen by varying curing temperature and time condition. And from the gel-content measurement, we figure the best fabrication condition. Also we examine the crack generation phenomenon during experiment.

The compact structure and high-quality effluent of membrane bioreactors make them well-suited for decentralized greywater reclamation. However, the occurrence of membrane fouling continues to limit their effectiveness. To address this concern, a unique membrane module configuration was developed for use in a decentralized greywater treatment system. The module featured local aeration directly below a series of inclined membrane bundles, giving the overall module a twisted appearance compared to a module with vertically orientated fibres. The intent of this design was to increase the frequency and intensity of collisions between rising air bubbles and the membrane surface. Material related to the construction of custom-fit modules is rarely communicated. Therefore, detailed design and assembly procedures were provided in this paper. The twisted module was compared to two commercially available modules with diverse specifications in order to assess the relative performance and marketability of the twisted module with respect to existing products. Contaminant removal efficiencies were determined in terms of biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, ammonia, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, and turbidity for each module. Membrane fouling was monitored in terms of permeate flux, transmembrane pressure, and membrane resistance. Following 168 h of operation, the twisted module configuration demonstrated competitive performance, indicating good potential for further development and commercialization.

Industrialized and modular construction is a growing construction technique that can transfer a large portion of the construction process to off-site fabrication yards. This method of construction often involves the fabrication, pre-assembly, and transportation of massive and long volumetric modules. The module weight keeps increasing as the modules become more complete (with infill) to minimize the work at the site and, as higher productivity can be achieved at the fabrication shop. Thus, a volumetric module delivery gets more challenging and risky. Despite its importance, past research paid relatively insufficient attention to the problem related to the lifting of heavy modules. This can be a complex and time-consuming problem with multiple lifting for transportation-and-installation operations both in fabrication yard and jobsite, and require complex crane operations (sometimes, more than one crane) due to crane load capacity and load balance/stability. This study investigates this problem by focusing on the structural perspective of lifting such long volumetric modules through simulation studies. Various scenarios of lifting a weighty module from the top using four lifting cables attached to crane hooks (either a single crane or double crane) are simulated in SAP software. The simulations account for various factors pertaining to structural indices, e.g., bending stress and deflection, to identify a proper method of module lifting from a structural point of view. The method can identify differences in structural indices allowing identification of structural efficiency and safety levels during lifting, which further allows the selection of the number of cranes and location of lifting points.

In this paper, we ecamined the effect that MCM-L technique influencess on the design and fabrication of multichip memory modules in increasing the packing desity of memory capacity and maximizing its electrical characteristics. For that purpose, we examined the effective methods of reducing the area of module layout and the wiring length with the variation of chip allocation and the number of wiring layers. We fabricated a 256K${\times}$8bit SRAM module with eight 32K${\times}$8bit SRAM chips. The routing experiment showed that we could optimize the area of module layout and wiring length by placing chips in a row, arranging module I/O pads parallel to chip I/O pads, and equalizing the number of terminal sides of module I/O's to that of chip I/O's. The routing was optimized when we used three wire layers in case of one sided chip mounting or five wire layers in case of double sided chip mounting. The fabricated modules showed 18.9 cm/cm$^{2}$ in wiring density, 65 % in substrate occupancy efficiency, and module substrate and functionally tested to find out the module working perfectly.

This paper introduces a new design and fabrication technology of 28 GHz low-cost up and down converter modules for digital microwave radios, The design of the converter module is based on unit circuit blocks, which are to be characterized using a special test fixture. Based on the cascade analysis of the module the 28 GHz up and down converter modules have been designed and implemented. The measured module performance agrees with the cascade analysis. New components such as a tapped edge-coupled filter and a new Ka-band waveguide-to-microstrip transition, which are less sensitive to fabrication tolerances, have been used in the module implementation.

The life time of PV module is semi-permanent. But, because of installation and module fabrication process, its important part can not be finished. In this paper, we analyze 15 years old modules made from different company. Among the PV modules, the maximum power drop ratio was 12.23% minimum and 80.63% maximum. Also the effect of solar cell's short circuit current difference was analyzed. The PV module exposed about 65days, its the maximum power drop ratio was 1.29% minimum and 23.43% maximum. It is for reduction of current value. And the reason for current reduction was due to reduction of parallel resistance of solar cell. To prevent early degradation, it is need to have attention to fabrication, installation and maintenance.

In the previous study, a new LTCC material in the $PbWO_{4}-TiO_{2}-B_{2}O_{3}-CuO$ system was introduced. The developed material can be sintered at $850^{\circ}C$ and its dielectric properties are $\varepsilon_{r}=20-25$, $Q{\times}f_{o}=30000\sim50000GHz$, and $\tau_{f}=0.2{\sim}30ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively. Therefore this material can be used as a LTCC substrate material for fabrication of multilayered high frequency communication module set. In present study, using this material, tape casting condition was established. With this condition, a multilayered resonator was fabricated and its electrical properties were examined. In present study, an antenna-duplexer module was also fabricated. Frequency characteristics of as-fabricated antenna-duplexer module was compared with simulation results.
