Abstract

The current virtual reality(VR) simulation functions in construction project are focused on the construction phase. This study attempts to extend the application of VR functions to the design phase. This study suggests various VR functions such as earthwork simulation by road alignment, alternative route selection simulation, structure type selection simulation and underground structure visualization simulation. These functions can visualize road route and earthwork condition and select an optimal design route by simulating virtual placement of alternative route. This study configures systematic methodology for suggested VR simulation functions and develops VR system by the functions. Finally this study suggests an improved design process of road construction project by using the developed VR functions

본 연구는 기존 시공단계 중심의 VR시뮬레이션 활용체계를 설계단계까지 확장하여 도로의 최적 설계정보 지원을 위한 시각화 분석 기능을 개발하는 것이 목적이다. 연구에서는 설계지원을 위한 VR기능으로 도보 선형(alignment)에 의한 토공 시뮬레이션, 대안 노선 선정 시뮬레이션 구조물 타입 선정 시뮬레이션 및 지하시설물 분석 시뮬레이션 기능들을 제안하고 있다. 이러한 VR시뮬레이션 기능을 통해 노선 및 토공 상태의 시각적 확인이 가능하고, 대안 노선의 가상적인 모의 배치를 수행함으로써 최적 설계노선을 선정할 수 있다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 도로설계정보 지원을 위한 VR시뮬레이션 기능 개발 방법론 및 시스템(VR Presenter)을 구현하며, VR기능을 적용한 개선된 도로설계 프로세스를 제안하고 있다.
