To write Chapter 3 methodology section for BIM based quality managament title.Written below are research questions and objectives. Research Questions RQ1: How are construction QA/QC processes currently implemented in building projects in Yangon Region, and what information-management challenges and organizational and technological conditions affect these processes? RQ2: Which BIM-enabled information-management functions are applicable to each stage of the construction QA/QC process, from quality planning to approval and closure? RQ3: Based on the findings of RQ1 and RQ2, how can construction QA/QC activities, BIM-enabled information-management functions, stakeholder responsibilities, information requirements, approval procedures, and traceability mechanisms be integrated into a BIM-based construction QA/QC process framework? RQ4: How do construction industry experts evaluate the relevance, completeness, practicality, and contextual suitability of the proposed framework for building projects in Yangon Region? Objectives of the Study The general objective of this study is to develop and evaluate a BIM-based construction QA/QC process framework for building projects in Yangon Region, Myanmar. The specific objectives of this study are to: 1. Identify current construction QA/QC processes, associated information-management challenges, and the organizational and technological conditions affecting them in building projects in Yangon Region. 2. Identify BIM-enabled information-management functions applicable to each stage of construction QA/QC: quality planning, inspection request, site inspection and testing, conformance assessment, NCR/defect recording, corrective action, reinspection, and approval and closure. 3. Develop a BIM-based construction QA/QC process framework integrating QA/QC activities, BIM-enabled information-management functions, stakeholder responsibilities, information requirements, approval procedures, and traceability mechanisms. 4. Evaluate the relevance, completeness, practicality, and contextual suitability of the proposed framework through expert assessment.
