| Abstract |
In design phase of a highway construction project, information management problems often arise due to the excessive amount of information generated and changes in workers. A digital collaborative system based on a common data environment (CDE) can be utilized as a way to solve these problems. In this study, two surveys for usability evaluation of a CDE were conducted to demonstrate the CDE developed through previous research to the actual site and analyze its effectiveness in terms of data management. Two sites in design phase of highway were designated as the target of the demonstration, and the scope of the demonstration includes the information sharing, review, and approval process from the creation of the BIM execution plan to the development of the integrated BIM model. 21 engineers who work at the two design phase sites of highway participated in the demonstration, and two surveys were conducted before and after the demonstration. The pre-demonstration survey was conducted to confirm the awareness and need for digital collaboration, and the post-demonstration survey was conducted to confirm the effectiveness of the developed the common data environment software. The results of the two surveys confirmed that digital collaboration based on a CDE can be utilized as a solution to the problem of information management in the design phase. However, additional challenges were also identified, such as the need to improve the CDE software, establish a policy related to CDE, and provide education for designers, so it is expected that the challenges presented should be resolved through further research. The results of this study will serve as basic research for the revitalization of the common information environment and help to increase the efficiency of the construction industry and improve the industry as a whole. |
