Building information modeling (BIM) can improve to communicate with project participants by early construction involvement (ECI) from the beginning of the project. Therefore, they can minimize design changes and improve design quality and construction. However, because there is insufficient research on the scope and application level of BIM according to project delivery system and project characteristics, construction companies have efficiently not been using the BIM. Therefore, this study intends to conduct basic research as a basis for confirming appropriate BIM application and level according to project delivery system and project characteristics. To do this, we investigated the project delivery system and project characteristics of domestic and foreign projects that have successfully applied BIM, and compare and analyze them based on BIM application and BIM level framework derived from theory reviews and experts. Therefore, this study can be used as a basis for strategically establishing the scope and level of BIM according to project delivery system and project characteristics through the result of this study.

Many cases have mentioned the effect by applying BIM on the media such as at conferences, workshops, reports, ect. These cases reported that costs could be saved directly by prevention the need to re-do and reconstruct caused by using BIM. BIM users mentioned that using BIM has potential value in saving costs. The benefits of the BIM include intangible value that cannot be estimated in costs, such as reducing work time and improving productivity. However, the financial value of using BIM, such as Return on Investment, has not yet been exposed, and BIM users have a negative view of the financial value of BIM in Korea. Therefore, this study has researched the effects of applying BIM on construction estimate services in view of business productivity, not finance. This study compared the traditional and BIM based estimation, and verified the effect of estimating BIM through work sampling. This study investigated a precondition for getting the effects of BIM based estimation. The results show a need for BIM education, 3D Modeling standards, and database on quantity in order to improve product ivity and reduce work time on BIM based estimation

Recently, BIM (Building Information Modeling) technique is being considered as a critical delivery condition for the public projects according to the increase of best practices by practical application of BIM. However, since existing BIM studies are focused on the design and construction phases, those results are not considering the life cycle of a construction project. Therefore, this study suggests an integrated BIM operation process that enables an application of BIM for each phase of a construction project from planning to maintenance phases and develops an integrated BIM system based on the suggested methodologies. This study developed basic BIM functions and its application process by analyzing information systems in each project phase for a bridge construction project. Besides, this study performed case study and survey analysis for construction managers to verify a practical applicability of the developed system. Therefore, it is expected that the integrated BIM system is going to be utilized as a 3D-based integrated information management system considering life cycle of construction projects.

Recently, foreign construction companies through the BIM-design have the effect of improving productivity and quality construction. On the other hand, domestic BIM-design is a little depressed because of lack of additional costs and professional personnel problem. The construction industry of recession, as reasons of construction market is downsizing. First must, enabling the design in public institutions, mainly BIM.. Design for BIM the construction sector, as well as an early stage actively introducing and spreading of the performance of him and domestic BIM technology should be able to promote the development. Public institutions in accordance with this study presented measures that can stimulate the BIM design on LH. To that end, the public agency's design were analyzed, and suggested the Improvement and Application of the four aspects for Modular Coordination BIM Design. Also, gradually formulate a "road map for public institutions applied design bim" in order to carry out the plans put forward and presented the expected effect of him. The proposed work was public institutions will be used as a pilot project in Korea Land Housing Corporation.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of applying BIM to the construction phase on preventing rework. Previous studies have presented the contribution of BIM in various ways, but a more practical and reliable analysis methodology are required. In this study, a BIM effect analysis methodology was proposed after collecting requirements on BIM effect analysis from field professionals. In the case study, the rework prevention effect was analyzed based on the proposed methodology. As a result, it was found that BIM application produced the rework prevention effect of approximately KRW 370,519,593. In addition, a consultation with field professionals on the suitability of the proposed methodology and effect analysis results were revealed that the results were sufficiently reliable. The results of this study can be used as efficient basic materials for research on BIM performance measurement in the future.

This paper studied the applicable case study on the BIM, based on a structural design process for office buildings. The design process and the applicable system are provided from the results of the research project on the system development of a virtual construction. The case study evaluated the work productivity and economic application of the process and the developed system. The study mainly takes steel structures into account. By using the structural analysis model and the basic design documents, it is able to create the basic construction model and the construction structural model. Likewise, the integrated model is built by IFC from the finished construction structural model. It checked the interoperability of the information among the various BIM design tools. The work environment was efficiently improved by establishing the BIM process, and work productivity could be increased with the help of the modeling automation for connections at the construction design stage.

본 논문에서는 KBC(Korean Building Code)와 IBC(International Building Code)의 풍하중 기준의 비교 분석을 통하여, BIM 프로세스 기반의 구조해석 및 설계 프로그램에서 풍하중 산정 시 국내 건축구조설계기준(KBC)을 적용하기 위한 방안을 제시하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 현재 BIM 기반 구조해석 및 설계 프로그램 중에는 한국구조설계기준(KBC)에 부합하는 풍하중 산정이 가능한 프로그램이 존재하지 않는다. 구조설계 기준에서 특히 풍하중 산정 방법은 기준 및 지역에 따른 산정 방법에 차이가 있기 때문에, 구조설계의 안전성을 높이고 한국 실정에 맞는 건축물의 설계를 위해서 KBC 기준의 적용이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 IBC와 KBC 내의 풍하중 산정 방법의 차이점을 비교 분석하고, 실제 사례연구를 통하여 풍하중 산정의 차이를 확인한다. KBC 기준 풍하중 산정 결과를 구조해석 및 설계 프로그램에 적용하기 위한 방법으로써 외부 프로그램을 활용하며 외부 프로그램에서 산정한 풍하중을 다시 구조해석 및 설계 프로그램 상에 입력하여 구조해석을 수행함으로써 KBC 기준 풍하중의 적용을 통한 한국형 BIM 구조해석 및 설계의 방안을 제시한다.

Currently, Building Information Modeling (BIM) is an emerging technological shift that involves applying and maintaining an integral digital representation of all building information for different phases of the project life-cycle. Although BIM has been recognized as a main stream in the construction industry, it is difficult to ensure the quality of BIM data due to the problems such as internal errors of BIM tools and lack of guidelines considering design quality. Such problems give lots of difficulties to BIM adoption for designers, constructors, and owners. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the requirements including the object-oriented modeling method and property definition by applying the Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) which is an ISO/PAS 16739 standard for ensuring the quality of BIM data. This research aims at proposing the requirements considering the quality of BIM data and demonstrating the efficiency of the requirements with using the Solibri Model Checker (SMC) which is a quality control tool in a case study.
