Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Building Information Modeling(BIM) software, specifically SketchUp and Revit, in reducing errors during quantity take-off(QTO) for complex building elements. While 3D modeling offers advantages, existing software may not fully account for manufacturing discrepancies, such as variations in concrete cover thickness and reinforcing bar radius. To address this limitation, this research proposes a BIM-based QTO method for high-insulation wall panels with intricate details. The method utilizes a BIM family library, focusing on key parameters like concrete cover thickness and inner radius of shear reinforcement. A case study compared the cross-sectional details of a wall panel modeled in Revit with the actual manufactured specimen. The analysis revealed a 12% reduction in modeled concrete cover thickness and a 1.27 times larger modeled inner radius of the shear bar compared to the real-world values. The proposed method incorporates these manufacturing variations into the Revit model of the high-insulation wall panel. Software like Navisworks facilitates the identification and correction of any material interferences arising from these adjustments. Furthermore, the method employs a unit wall concept(1m2) to account for the volume of various materials, including insulation and splice sleeves at joints. This allows for the identification of a similar existing family within the BIM library(e.g., "Double RC wall with embedded insulation") that reflects the actual material quantities used in the wall panel. By incorporating these manufacturing-induced variations, the proposed method offers a more accurate QTO process for complex high-insulation wall panels. The "Double RC wall with embedded insulation" family within the Revit program serves as a valuable tool for material quantity estimation in such scenarios.

이 연구의 목적은 복잡한 상세를 갖는 부재의 생산공정에서 발생하는 물량산출 오차를 최소화할 수 있는 BIM의 패밀리 라이브러리를 이용한 고단열 벽체 판넬의 물량산출 방법을 제시하는데에 있다. 주요변수는 공장의 생산공정에서 주로 발생할 수 있는 오차인 콘크리트 피복두께와 철근 구부림의 최소 내면 반지름으로 설정하였다. Revit BIM 프로그램으로 모델링된 단면 보다 생산현장에서 제작된 고단열 벽체 판넬의 콘크리트 피복두께는 약 12% 작았으며 철근 구부림의 최소 내면 반지름은 약 1.27배 컸다. 이러한 변화를 Revit BIM 프로그램을 이용한 고단열 벽체 판넬의 모델링에 반영하고 Navisworks를 이용하여 구성된 재료들의 간섭 체크 및 보정하였다. 특히, 각 재료들의 체적 등가 개념을 이용하여 1m 단위의 벽체로 환산하였으며, 이때 수직 및 수평접합에 설치되는 단열재와 스플라이스 슬리브도 포함하였다. 환산된 1m 단위의 벽체는 각 재료들의 물량 측면에서 유사한 패밀리 라이브러리의 "단열재가 삽입된 이중 RC 벽체"로 결정될 수 있었다. 제시된 레빗 프로그램에 내장된 패밀리 라이브러리의 "단열재가 삽입된 이중 RC 벽체"는 공장의 생산공정에서 발생하는 제조오차를 고려하면서 복잡한 단면을 가지고 있는 고단열 벽체 판넬 상세에서 각 재료들의 물량을 산출하는데에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
