Abstract

This paper designs and proposes a file conversion process to IFC file, the international standard file format for BIM, in order to ensure mutual compatability and manageability among users of commercial BIM modeling and design softwares in the civil engineering area. The proposed process insert additional properties consisting of the properties of quantity calculation codes and properties of CBS/OBS/WBS standard classification scheme, to the three dimensional object shape information of the converted IFC files, using add-in converters for commercial BIM modeling softwares. In addition, a process of integrated use of IFC files for open web-based quantity, process(4D), and construction cost(5D) management is additionally designed and implemented. Based on these works, the ultimate goal of this study is to propose a novel process for integrated use of open web-based quantity, process(4D), and construction cost(5D), from the design stage of BIM modeling to the final construction stage in the civil engineering area.

본 연구에서는 토목분야의 다양한 상용 BIM 모델링 설계 소프트웨어의 사용자들에게 상호 호환성과 상호 운용성을 보장하기 위해 BIM 국제 표준 파일 포맷인 IFC 파일로의 파일 변환 프로세스를 새롭게 설계하여 제시한다. 제안된 프로세스는 상용 BIM 모델링 소프트웨어를 위한 add-in 방식의 컨버터(Converter)를 사용하여, 변환되는 IFC 파일의 3차원 객체 형상 정보에 수량 산출식 코드 속성과 토목 분야 CBS/OBS/WBS 표준분류체계 속성으로 구성되는 추가적인 속성들을 삽입한다. 또한, 개방형(Open) 웹 기반 수량, 공정(4D) 및 공사비(5D) 관리를 위한 IFC 파일의 통합 활용 프로세스를 추가로 설계하고 구축한다. 이러한 작업을 통해 토목 분야의 BIM 모델링 설계 단계에서 최종적인 시공 단계에 이르는 개방형 웹 기반 수량, 공정(4D) 및 공사비(5D)의 연계적 활용에 대한 새로운 프로세스를 제시하는 것이 본 연구의 궁극적인 목적이다.
