Abstract. Abstract Since 2021, the Korea Heritage Service and the Korea Foundation for Traditional Architecture and Technology (KOFTA) have been advancing the HBIM project to systematically manage the repair history of cultural heritage. The initiative aims to establish a scientific decision-making framework for the preservation and maintenance of architectural heritage. This paper explores the development, outcomes, and future potential of the HBIM strategy specifically in the context of managing repairs to Korea’s wooden architectural heritage. Starting this year, the Korea Heritage Service and our foundation have embarked on a research project to develop a public platform that facilitates access to repair history HBIM. This platform will enable stakeholders at repair sites to conveniently access existing HBIM data and integrate previously scattered cultural heritage repair records. Ultimately, the Korea Heritage Service and our foundation remain committed to creating a system where comprehensive repair information can be effectively managed and utilized in close coordination with on-site restoration activities via the HBIM platform.
