It is increased concerns that review the design based on the economic efficiency, VE(Value Engineering), in construction industry. Also, the effectiveness of VE case study has reported very variously in the domestic and foreign construction industry. The phase of drawing idea VE process is important because of real cost saving effect. The design review checklist in the phase of drawing idea make more effective VE. The research suggests the method and process of design review checklist focusing on the construction work in this study. Also, it proposes the useful process with the exited VE procedure.

The construction information classification which developed for the purpose of adapting informatization in construction industry suggests construction information with standardization. Currently, standardization of construction information is highly necessary for BIM that is main background of alteration as construction industry informatization. The authors suggest improvement of construction information classification. Particularly, extension contents for each facets are suggested to contain BIM. In case of applying extended classification to BIM, interoperability of information will be enhanced and it is effective to integrate information in phase of using BIM.

In this study, the information breakdown structure of water purification plant has been made by classifying various the water purification methods and facilities. this can be utilized as a code system of computer for integrating information and analyzing quantitative of environmental impact and calculating cost of maintenance and energy consumption which was used during life cycle of water purification plant. Since the construction information contains many heterogeneous information, it is very important to have a code system for managing the integrated information. In addition, since water purification plant facilities are mainly composed of installation of facilities including many processes, a more detailed classification code is required. Therefore, in this study, the water purification breakdown structure which is not yet attempted in Korea was constructed by using facet classification system.

The importance of information management has been emphasized in Korean construction industry, Both public and private have invested to establish and operate construction CALS, construction management (CM), computer integrated construction(CIC), and earned value management system(EVMS). A standard construction information classification system is essential to operate the systems mentioned above. Therefore, Korean government released Integrated Construction Information Classification System(ICICS) in 2001. However, the ICICS is not widely used in construction due to: 1) difficulty of changing existing system, 2) insufficient publicity of the ICICS, and 3) no legal binding force. Especially, participants in construction do not recognize applicability of the ICICS. This research surveyed the degree of recognition and utilization of the ICICS. This survey includes both customized classification systems used by companies and the ICICS and investigates the degree of utilization and drawbacks. The results show some construction companies use their own classification systems and the others use the ICICS prepared by the government. Furthermore, the degree of recognition is in sufficient. The degree of use in design management, specifications, cost and schedule management is very limited. The publicity and education are critical to induce the utilization of the ICICS. The necessity of revision was recommended based on pilot project study that is performed to measure the degree of application of ICICS on the projects. Therefore, this research proposes the measurement model for information application and analyzes the degree of utilization of the ICICS in different phases of construction.
