Abstract:

Pre-planning stage is a most important stage to determine the success of the project throughout the construction lifecycle. Therefore, all information generated from the pre-planning stage must be processed and retained in the format which all he project participants can share. Furthermore, using object-oriented attributes and meta-data in BIM (Building Information Modeling) for easy control of the space objects are actively being studied. This paper investigates ontology and its description logic (OWLDL) and establishes it in the pre-planning stage of construction project and will also carry out a case study based on a real project in Korea. The special objects will be created and the relationship of these special objects will be defined. An ontology diagram will be suggested that will control the special objects with the constraints applied.

Keywords: Ontology, OWL DL, BIM (Building Information Modeling), Space Object
