Clients demands have been changed by construction circumstances such as high-technology, mega-projects, and the complexity of construction. Advanced foreign countries have already introduced and applied new project delivery systems(i.e, CM, DB, etc.) to deal with the change of such that. Recently, Korea also launched two new project delivery systems, "Best Value Contracts to which the State is a Party" to provoke the project delivery system, which helps a public owner select a project delivery system appropriate to the project characteristics. Even though government has made his efforts as stated above, some clients have still used those to public construction projects uniformly. That is because there are not a selection criteria of project delivery system for clients. Therefore, this paper proposes the selection criteria of project delivery system based on project types in the public large construction projects.

Recently, construction industry demands have been changed by domestic construction circumstances such as high-technology, mega-projects, and the complexity of construction. In order to deal with the change of such a domestic construction circumstances, the Ministry of Construction and Transportation (MOCT) has introduced advanced delivery methods. However, the advantages and disadvantages of the advanced delivery methods have not been effectively applied for previous projects. The reason for this is that the "Reviewing Standard for the Large-scale Construction Bidding Method" has not reflected enough prcject characteristics when the delivery method is selected in the project planning phase. Therefore, this paper proposes the Analysis on the Impact Factors of Delivery Method for Multi-Family Housing Projects.

With the electricity industry structure reformation of the government in April, 2001, Korea Power Electric Corporation was divided in to Korea water power nuclear power and 5 thermal power plant. After, various delivery method is introduced and applied for active profit creation according to the competition between each development companies for the public company privatization. However, the current situation does not satisfy the project participant by selecting the delivery method without reflecting the business goal and project characteristics of power plant construction business. The objective of this study is to research the influencing factors that should be considered to select the delivery method in thermal power construction business and develop a standard of selection of appropriate delivery method through questionnaire and interviews to establish a model to select the delivery method that fits the business goal of the subject of delivery. In the future, if the delivery method selection model suggested in this study is applied, it is expected to select the appropriate delivery method of power plant construction business by effectively reflecting the business goal, characteristics and demand of the delivery subject, and characteristics of the construction business apart from the existing customary practices that decided the delivery method dependent on the subjective and experience based judgement.

The selection of the reasonable project delivery system (PDS) is crucial for a successful performance of a project, which means to achieve project objectives. Furthermore, the project performance has been tightly related to the selection of PDS appropriate to pertinent project characteristics. In this context, the ministry of finance and economy of Korea launched two new project delivery systems called "Best Value Contract (Design-Bid-Build)" and "Bridging Contract (Design-Build)" in October of 2007 by revising enforcement ordinances of "Act on Contracts to Which the State is a Party". For efficient operation of the new project delivery systems, this paper suggested a PDS selection model which supports decision making of the reasonable PDS for a pertinent project by assessing characteristics of the public construction projects, both quantitatively and qualitatively. In addition, a PDS performance evaluation model was proposed in order to get feedback on the result of the PDS selection and the operation for the succeeding project. The standard models suggested in this paper might be used as a tool to support the decision making of the public organizations.

The purpose of this study is to analyze CM effects between traditional and owner CM types according to project delivery methods in private projects. The research method of this study includes case studies and survey from construction management experts. The results of this study are as follows: 1)The owner CM type is proved to be much more effective than traditional method in various management function areas. 2)Planning, design, and quality management areas are proved to be very strong in the case of owner CM type.

With the current trend in the industry toward increasingly complex, diversified and large construction projects, advanced countries in the construction field have already introduced and applied a variety of methods for placing orders in order to cope with such changes in construction circumstances. In Korea, there have been efforts to continuously improve approaches to placing an order. With the aim of diversifying the methods of Delivery Systems, the "Technical Proposal Type Bid," and the "Design Competition and Technical Proposal Type Bid" were introduced through a revision of Korea's contract law enforcement ordinance. In line with the government's efforts, criteria for a method of placing an order that is suitable for a public construction project should be presented. This study enumerates the current issues using a survey for construction projects already placed and an analysis of the current status, and presents the selection criteria for Delivery Systems by business type as an improvement for the problem.

Project delivery systems determine the relationship, responsibility, authority and the scope of works of those involved in project, hence, optimum project delivery system should be selected to so that construction project would be executed successfully, Until now, the traditional design-bid-build mainly has been used for public projects, but the government is making efforts actively to introduce other methods such as design-build, alternative bidding by its policy. However, delivery systems should be determined through considering physical projects characteristics, owner's goals, external factors, etc, rather than government' policy. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to propose objective delivery system selection criteria and delivery system selection model, which help owners to select the suitable delivery system through quantitative and reasonable manner.

Multi-trade Contract Method was introduced as a means of cutting down construction cost of public housing for low income people. Before a specific project delivery method is applied to large public construction project, it is necessary to discuss all the issues raised up from all the parties in construction industry and all the issues which can impact project performance. Thus the interviews were conducted with industrial professionals from diverse organizations and previous studies were investigated to figure out how this newly introduced project delivery method may impact owner's role and responsibility and project performance in terms of cost, schedule, quality and risk. Under the Multi-trade Contract Method, project owner's management tasks will be highly increased, so it should be checked out if the owner can do its role and responsibility. Public owner's organization also needs to be changed and proper project management procedure and system need to be established. In addition, for efficient application of Multi-trade Contract Method, public owner should consider diverse management approach to deliver the project, and how to select and maintain qualified specialty trades.

Even though the construction management (CM) system was introduced for the purpose of increasing the efficiency of the domestic construction industry along with the establishment of construction industry fundamental laws in December of 1996, now it is very difficult that the public institutions can judge their application of construction management methods due to the lack of clear guidelines or directions to select construction management methods when the public institutions were executing public construction projects. Therefore, this study was executed to prepare for the selection criteria which could be referred in reviewing the application of construction management ordering methods according to public institution's competences and project characteristics. It is expected that future domestic demand of construction management will be gradually increasing both in public and private construction sectors. However under the current construction management systems, it is judged to be difficult that the construction projects that apply the construction management methods will be activated with full-scale. Therefore, it could be said that active efforts in domestic sectors are required in order that the construction management systems of developed countries levels could be activated. Additionally in order to vitalize the construction management systems, it is expected that public institutions could use this study results as the review data for feasibility of construction projects for the consignment of construction management in selecting the ordering methods.

Recently, operation of highway is the complex digital Infrastructure based on complicated IT. The application of IT is increasing more and more in digital Infrastructure. Though IT is very convenient, if unpredicted operating risk of highway occurs, widespread damage can be large. When operating risk of highway occurs, road users are out of smoothly-run service because of the operating interruption. This risk causes unpredicted operating management cost and additional maintenance cost. It will excess over the planned operating cost, which may leads to users's unsafety and operator's insolvency because of income loss. Until now, related studies to find out the risk are not sufficient. The purpose of this study is to suggest risk cost items and to estimate the reasonable risk cost by using simulation method in case of occurring the huge power failure at the operating digitalized highway. This study indicates the several plans to hedge against risk cost and the management of highway project. From now on, it will be used as basic data to confirm the soundness of operating system in Digital Infrastructure.
