Abstract Construction graphical simulations usually do not reflect physical properties of construction equipment and material becausethere are restricted to the geometric model. The complete description of construction operations is difficult for graphicalsimulation without a physical modeling. The object of this research is to enhance the functionality of restricted simulation systemto geometric model. And research is conducted to overcome the limitation of current construction graphical simulation systemthrough the connection geometric model and physical model with the physical properties of construction equipment and materialsuch as crane's cable oscillation. The motion equations for the oscillation of crane cable as a result of the trolley's movement andthe boom's rotation were derived. The equations were solved through numerical analysis and the results were simulated visually.The realistic description with physical modeling of construction operations will contribute for ensuring preliminary against risksand improving constructability as well as the application of various fields.
