A study on classification of facility elements for supporting project definition of urban renewal mega project using morphological box method

Abstract

Urban renewal mega projects consisting of a number of individual projects should be approached from the program level. BIM (Building Information Modeling) can feed information from product models of individual facilities to program management. In order to this end, the projects that are parts of a program have broken down with consistent and integrated manner towards program management. This breakdown including project relations is expressed as PBS (Project Breakdown Structure). Facility breakdown structure that the usage of facility and spatial hierarchy is contemplated was built with morphological box method. Morphological box methods, means to discover and devise morphologies of unbiased, useful and new idea, has extended widely its range of application from space engineering to civil engineering design and architectural design. Data process modeling was designed which is applicable both to geographic information reflecting spatial hierarchy and applicable to BIM reflecting facility breakdown structure. Information on facilities classified according to it is used for economic feasibility analysis on pre-design phase, management in construction phase and facility management in maintenance phase as required. This paper presents a method to define the spatial hierarchy of facilities to support managing urban renewal mega projects at the program level. In order to this end, the project should be classified with a consistent breakdown facility.
