Smart Construction Strategy

New Business Value Generation and Enhancing Competitiveness

POSCO E&C broadly applies building information modeling (BIM), Smart Tools, prefabrication, and smart workflow, from design to construction for carrying out projects. Our “Smart Construction Group” standardizes work processes that focus on data and artificial intelligence (AI) associated with digital transformation. We intend to have in-house capabilities to the extent of company by adoting new technologies and training employees.

Innovative Technologies of POSCO E&C.

  • Pre-construction Pre-construction is one of the ways to manage a project. It gathers all companies that take part in the project in the Big Room to eliminate design errors and optimize costs, time, and quality through a systematic and advanced system.
  • Prefabrication Prefabrication is the practice of manufacturing construction components in factories or a separate location and assembling them on-site. This method further enhances site productivity.
  • BIM-based virtual construction This is a method of optimizing construction processes and costs through plans for temporary structures, equipment arrangement, process review, and safety risk review. It uses a BIM-based virtual construction before the actual construction kicks off.
  • Digital construction management This web-based digital system for managing sites immediately processes and uploads highly precise data collected through drones or 3D scanners through cloud app. The data can be retrieved and used at all times using mobile devices or tablet PCs.
  • Automation of construction equipment Construction equipment is linked with GPS and Internet of Things (IoT) for automated equipment control. This is a non-intrusive technology that also links with a ground penetrating radar (GPR) to enable automatic surveying of underground utilities.
  • Smart Safety This technology controls site safety in real-time by monitoring gas levels in enclosed spaces, identifying workers’ locations, controlling hazardous substance storages, analyzing intelligent CCTV footages, and controlling drone safety.

BIM Applied in All Railway Sections for the First Time in the Country Private Investment Project for the Sinansan Double-track Railway

The Sinansan double-track railway project is a massive deep underground construction project that connects Ansan to Siheung to Gwangmyeong to Yeouido with 15 stations. The total length of the railway is 44.7 kilometers. Building information modeling (BIM) was applied in all railway sections and construction types for the first time in the country. The interfaces and interference with existing structures between construction work have been revised in the initial phase and reflected in the design phase. Smart shaft management technology is also applied for constructing shafts that enable the passage between tunnels for precise work.
