Abstract Recently, interest in Building Information Modeling (BIM) has increased globally, and 3D modeling is a start for the application of BIM at construction sites. However, while many studies have been conducted on the efficiency of 3D modeling focused on civil facilities, there is a lack of research on the earthwork BIM. In particular, since 3D slope often has complex shapes depending on the ground models, the efficiency method for 3D slope are needed. This study analyzed the interfaces and procedures of other software to find out what functions users need. Then the functions to enter intervals between 3D faces, select multiple ground models, and improve the interface are reflected on the developed system and is able to efficiently perform modeling with only five steps, and reduce the number of clicks and inputs. As a result of conducting the test to verify the efficiency, using the developed system made skilled users complete modeling at least 1.8 times faster and unskilled people at least 2.4 times faster than using other software. This is expected to perform 3D slope modeling more efficiently, as well as to contribute to the activation of future BIM adoption for housing construction projects.
