The Korea Standard of Estimate which has been used as the only basis of Cost estimate of public construction projects is failed to reflect the fluctuation of current construction cost. Therefore, the government decided to gradually introduce historical construction cost into cost estimate of public construction projects from 2004 and to reduce the use of Korean Standard of Estimate. This paper presents a series of process and the methodology for computing Actual Cost and analyzing the fluctuation patterns based on not only previous contract prices which made a successful bid but also all of the other bid prices. Also, this paper mainly handles a device for extracting strategic bid price such as low price bid for assuring reliable data and for predicting the construction cost which is built by Wavelet Analysis of Time series Analysis data and Neural Network. It is anticipated that the effective use of the proposed process for estimating actual unit cost would make the cost estimation more current and reasonable.

BAT Korea's Factory is the one of the major projects that clearly confirms and demonstrates that Construction Management (CM), provided by a Korean CM Company to the foreign clients, enables them to successfully complete projects; with savings in time and reduction in cost, which it is $15\%$ lower than the cost of the overseas construction. Also, throughout the thorough schedule management, it was possible to commence with manufacturing one month after the completion date. The Key Success Factors was generated by the excellent construction management skills, and more importantly by the confidence gained by the client in giving a CM company full authority for the construction management of the project. This study has focus on elements of construction management applied to this project throughout the concept of 'One Stop Shop', including cost managements, contract management and value engineering etc. We hope that this study will provide useful data to enable public clients to take advantages of construction management, in a similar way to. the private clients, who have already implemented CM actively.

This study is aimed to get clear model for CM fee level in public construction project. For the practical use and main target, CM for fee contract only is assessed and analysed. Cost estimate by percentage of total contract sum and method based on the historical construction data have significant deficiency. An regression model and probabilistic model are suggested with 9 independent variables. In the case of limited work scope, an element based floor area model is suggested and concluded with fish-bone scheme.

Curtain wall (for the outside wall) must be designed and constructed to resist weather condition of nature like rain. wind and surrounding environment. So, Now days, Mock-up test of curtain wall's total capability is generally used for skycraft building. But, Mock-up test specification in korea is so weak that there are lots of disputation. Also, lacking of clearness in specification causes many trouble in adaptation. Therefore, I would like to consider the problem of Mock-up test specification by inspecting and comparing with other country's works. and I will mention the way of approvement in our specification.

The environmental management is essential for construction projects. The environmental management cost for construction projects is used for various purposes to control the environmental pollution and treat the wastes generated from the construction sites. Six construction cases were analyzed to compare the environmental management cost. The proportion of environmental management cost for total construction budget should be higher than 0.70% in redevelopment projects and 0.30% in newly constructed buildings, respectively, but every six construction cases did not meet the legal requirement. Redevelopment projects expanded more environmental management cost than the newly constructed projects especially in noise control and wastes treatment. In case of apartment construction projects, the proportion of environmental management cost of redevelopment buildings is 2.4 times higher than the newly constructed buildings, but in all cases, paid more attention to the noise and waste controlling measures than the wastewater treatment. It is needed to ensure the cost-effectiveness of environmental management for achieving the eco-friendly construction sites.

Public construction companies have strictly followed a rule that they should not work in the wet area such as structural frame for a certain period during the winter season. It is usually known that the non-working period during the winter causes increase of the project duration, and the project cost escalation. Also, it makes negative effects on national economy because it reduces workers income. Therefore, the site work for the structural frame should be performed even during the whiter season. But the site work for the structural frame during that period cannot proceeds in the same way as during other periods, and requires a different method for estimating project duration. Through an analysis of time scheduling mechanism, actual working days are obtained for 1 cycle of typical floors in the structural frame during these periods, and non-working days of 5 years average are calculated based on calendar day using data of 5 years weather forecasts for that season. This study proposes an optimized way of estimating project duration for 1 cycle of typical floors in the structural frame during these periods. This estimating method uses the combined actual working days and non-working days of 5 years' average, and the estimated results are confirmed by being compared with field data. This study is expected to be used in estimating the construction duration of the structural frame during the winter season.

The main goal of construction projects from the past has been enhancing efficiency by reducing cost and time. but, seeing the current condition of safety management of many construction companies nowadays, it is true that not much attention has been paid to safety management for a long time. However, there are paradigm shift from the cost and term of works to safety management in the construction industry, from this circumstance the safety management is evaluated more importantly. Though less accident happens compared to past, the accidents are getting greater because construction projects nowadays are bigger and more complex and monetary loss from the accidents are increasing. Also, the severity is getting greater and even fatal. For this reason, more improved safety management is very necessary. Therefore, we are to propose more efficient system for safety management in this thesis. Technical parts for developing system include many technique such as Real Time Locating system, and other techniques like Monitoring module based on BIM, Data Mart, Alarm are also applied together. Through this system, in the construction site, safety management is performed more effectively and widely because the system can manage the human resource and fluid situation. Also, safety manager can conduct more systematically and advanced safety management through human resource dominated safety management.

공익사업 수행시 발생하는 용지보상은 매년 20조원에서 30조원에 이르는 막대한 예산이 투입되고 있는 반면 각종 규정과 업무절차가 복잡하여 업무처리에 많은 인력과 시간이 소요되고 있다. 이에 국토해양부와 같은 중앙부처, 지방자치단체, 도로공사 등 주요 공익사업 사업시행자들은 기관별로 별도의 보상시스템을 구축하고 있다. 하지만 교육과학부, 국방부 등 보상시스템을 사용하지 않는 중앙부처가 대부분이고 기 개발되어 있더라도 시스템 활용도가 낮아 보상시스템을 활용한 보상통계자료의 작성 등이 어려워 매년 국가가 취득하는 공공용지 취득실적 및 규모 등을 파악하기가 어려운 실정이다. 또한 회계시스템과 연계가 되어 있지 않은 시스템이 많아 정확한 보상비 집행실적 추적이 어려워 과세자료 누락으로 인한 세금 누수가 발생하고 있다. 더불어, 과다보상비 책정 및 지급시 이를 체계적으로 추적할 수 있는 전산자료 부재 등으로 보상비 집행의 투명성이 저하될 소지가 있다. 이에 중앙부처, 지방자치단체 및 공공기관별로 용지보상시스템 사용현황을 파악하고 이들을 근간으로 범국가적으로 보상업무를 선진화 할 수 있는 보상자료 통합 관리방안을 제시하고자 한다.

Recently, in the korean construction industry, the importance of cost management in the building design process has been grown up institutional systems and policies for the cost management of design stages are however weakness. Traditionally, the range of cost management has been limited to the construction stages, and due to inefficiency of the infrastructure such as standards and building cost data for cost management. It has trouble to perform the cost management in building design process. This study intends to derive key influence factors for raising efficiency of cost management. With questionnaire surveys to professionals, we analyze a current situations and the influence of obstacle factors on cost management. Finally, the key influence factors are induced, based on the result of the analysis on influence the obstacle factors.
