Information of construction material is served through internet to user but it is poor to use information of construction material because of lack of information which is accumulated and insufficience of standardization. So informationization of civil materials are closely connected with works and then it is promoted to be used through works like design, construction etc. Informationization for management of information of construction material which reflects questionnaires about opinion of workers presents promotion by stage considering first, continuous renewal of information of construction material and increase in quantity, second classification system and standardization of terms in order to share and connect information of construction material third, developing inquiry method of material information needed in construction stage fourth, connecting material information DB and application through design and construction.

As construction works have become larger and more complex, improving productivity by introducing Information Technology (IT) is pursued and more effective construction management is needed in construction industry. In this circumstance, many different kinds of project management system is being introduced, and various IT technologies are applied such as Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), Bar Code, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Web Camera, and so on. However, these kinds of technologies might cause re-processing of information and ineffectiveness of project because of lack of real time information processing technology or separation between construction sites and management offices. Meanwhile, these technologies rather decrease the construction productivity except for the data saving and database function. Therefore, this research aims to develop Application that can be applied efficiently for construction material management, by understanding problems of former management system with questionnaires and extracting functions with analysis of requirements. In virtue of the construction material management Application which will be developed in this study, it will be possible to input information automatically, to process and check material information in real time, and to identify the location of necessary material. Then, the problem of separation between construction sites and management offices are solved, and as a result, more efficient management of materials in construction sites will become possible. At the same time, this study will investigate the possibility and applicability of new IT device, Smart Phone to construction sites.

Construction Materials are the key elements determining the quality of buildings. The major purpose of this study is to provide basic data analysis for leveraging domestic construction material information systems. The study implements a comparative analysis by categorizing the construction material information systems into several detailed areas. The research results specify the limitations of current construction material information systems and derive required research areas for practical applications throughout a construction project life-cycle.

During a construction project, construction managers must be provided with material information to help them to make decisions more efficiently without delaying the delivery of material. Construction work can be smoothly performed with the proper material supply. Construction duration depends on several material-related decisions, including the order, delivery, and allocation of material to the correct work location. Hence, it is worthwhile to introduce data warehouse techniques that generate subject-oriented and integrated data to construction material management. The data warehouse for construction material management can perform multidimensional analysis and then define KPIs (Key Performance Index) in order to provide construction managers with construction material information such as lead time, material delivery rate, material installation rate and so on. This research proposes a method of effectively facilitating large amounts of data in the operating systems during the construction management process. In other words, the proposed method can supply structured and multi-perspective material-related information using data warehouse techniques.

Currently, the process of selecting products such as construction materials and equipment in the design phase proceeds based on the reuse of products used in the previous projects or samples from design companies as well as information on the limited products provided from the website of several manufactures. In particular, it is urgently required to formulate a standard product information management system that can be utilized in the BIM-based design environment these days. In Korea, domestic construction information classification system was developed, but its utilization has been underestimated since continuous studies on the practical usability are still lacking. Therefore, this paper derived problem of domestic construction materials information system by comparing with abroad material information system. Issues and implication is derived in terms of (1) Input information (2) Provide information, and (3) Utilize Information.

Standardization to information attribute of construction material is continuous demanded through the life cycle of a construction project, and the productivity elevation is derived of contribution effect in construction market. This study surveyed the means of acquisition and attribute of information to a staff in purchase, which are effected on the revitalization of information circulation to the construction material Proposed the standardization to information attribute of construction material that is based on improvement and application to the information attribute. And information attribute is classified with construction process through analysis on test list of quality certification. This study also suggested representative attribute of quality information, for the elevation of safety and quality in construction industry. Therefore, logicality of common information is based by analysis of mathematical statistics, systemicity of quality information is applied by MasterFormat(2004)

This study is under doing to suggest application manual using assembling reference plane design & standard finish material basis upon material classification code as a tool of a linkage between building design and construction standarization in order to enlarge the applicability of house building material that is produced by the module plant. We can say the goal of building standardization intend not only the improvement of construction productibility but also guarantee of subsequent performance through automatization basis upon informationalization of building design. For a etabilishing of this condition, it is neccessary to link the standardization's result of material--design--construction field. According to this neccessity, we are going to suggest information factor that can make relative business manager easily approach to the standardization practical task.

As information technologies in construction field get developed, various studies and projects are in progress for improvement of construction industry. Meanwhile, web-basis online system for building materials is tending upward. However, most of the informations about classification system for building materials and specifications are not systematic yet. Most field staffs have some troubles in making full use of the material information, repeating inefficient works from constructional design to the maintenance of it. This study designed auto-categorization system classified by materials, multi-search engines, auto-converting/creating electronic catalog as well as RFID search support to provide standardized building materials information.

There is a need for effective tracking and control of material loading and delivery time especially during the finishing-work phases to eliminate the need for lay-down space on the site. Hence, it is essential to monitor the relevant information regarding material procurement in construction sites, and it is also the key factor for successful site control and the adoption of the Just-in-Time concept for high-rise building construction. The purpose of this study is to test RFID's readability in order to develop a finishing material monitoring system through the application of RFID technology.
