Abstract:
Current trend in Construction Technology is to
integrate with ICT (Information & Communication
Technology). BIM(Building Information Modeling) is
one of the most conspicuous applications of ICT into
Construction Field to deal with Big Data, which was
not possible even a decade ago.This paper introduces
BIM, including its definition, history, and future
prospect. It also presents an application example of
BIM intoa real case, Power Plant Building at HGU
(Handong Global University). This example
demonstratesa new attempt in terms of two aspects; 1)
covering the whole life-cycle ranging from structural
analysis to building operation, and 2)focusing on
environmental matters rather than construction
managements. Some conclusions are drawn based on
the results.
