Abstract

Received 14 February 2013; received in revised form 9 April 2013; accepted 16 April 2013ABSTRACT The construction industry consists of various and massive architectural information as an archi-tectural process includes a variety of design stages with cooperation of many disciplines. Partic-ularly, architectural information is generated and managed through the life cycle of a building,from conceptual design stage to the construction and maintenance. A Building InformationModel (BIM) serves as a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility forming areliable basis for decisions during its life-cycle from inception onward. BIM technology accom-plished quantitative development being utilized in various disciplines. However, it is necessaryto develop environment and requirement for qualitative improvement of BIM based project. Par-ticularly, requirement is very important for architectural design evaluations. The purpose of thisstudy is to develop and apply of quality control check-list for improving the quality of architec-tural design in BIM environments. To achieve this purpose, the authors have investigated casestudy for open BIM data quality control (software, guideline and application case) and classi-fied quality control targets according to physical/logical quality control and data quality. In addi-tion, the authors have defined open BIM based quality control process and developed qualitycontrol check-list. Finally, the authors have developed automatic quality check system usingrequirements for efficient quality control based on open BIM.Key Words:Building Information Modeling (BIM), Check-list, Code Information Check, IndustryFoundation Classes (IFC), Open BIM, Quality Control, Quality of Architectural Design
