As a core policy for achieving the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the building sector, Korea has enforced the mandatory certification of zero energy buildings for new public buildings from 2020. This study suggests energy-saving technologies and economic factors that building officials can refer to for decision-making on the implementation of zero energy buildings. For this study, the construction cost for the energy item of a building was analyzed by collecting the building energy efficiency level certification data and detailed construction cost statement data from public institutions for the last three years. Based on the building energy efficiency certification data, each energy item of the baseline building was derived, and the energy performance of the zero energy building was derived through repetitive simulations by gradually increasing the energy performance value of the baseline building. By applying the analyzed construction cost, the construction cost for each energy item of the baseline and zero energy buildings was derived. As a result, the lighting equipment contributed up to 10.5% energy savings, and the increase in construction cost of the cooling and heating system was at least 9.1%.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the process of integrating and re-using information generated and used throughout the lifecycle of a building. BIM may not be very different from other management methods in that it aims to minimize the economic loss and maximize the profit by designing, building, and maintaining a building better, faster, yet cheaper. The major difference between BIM and other methods is that BIM approaches the goal from a system point of view whereas other methods generally approaches the goal from a business management point of view. Since a project cannot succeed without considering both systematic and managerial aspects of a project, the line has been blurred these days. This paper explores a historical background of BIM and discusses the key technologies for successful implementation of BIM.

To analyze the total cost of ownership in a building construction project, we have to consider initial plan, maintenance and operation cost, in addition to the design and construction cost. This is called "Life Cycle Cost (LCC)." Currently, it is difficult to analyze LCC because of a lack of data and the appropriate criteria. This study tries to suggest a way to analyze the LCC of building construction projects, and apply it to case studies of modern apartment houses and Han-Ok, a type of traditional Korean house. The case studies found that a Han-Ok is more efficient than a modern apartment house from an LCC point of view, in terms of maintenance and operation cost.

기후변화에 따른 수환경의 변화로 도시홍수로 인한 인명 및 재산피해가 증가하여 도시홍수에 대한 중요성이 급격히 부각되는 상황이지만 국내에서는 도시 내배수 시스템의 선진화기술 구축 및 그와 관련된 연구는 미흡한 실정일 뿐만 아니라 효과적인 침수 저감도 어려운 실정이다. 도시지역에서의 내수침수를 효과적으로 방어할 수 있는 구조적, 비구조적 홍수방어 대책의 수립이 시급한 실정이다. 현재 기존의 도시침수 저감 대책들은 유하시설의 용량 증설 및 통수능 확보를 초점으로 하는 구조적인 대책에 머물러 있으며, 유하시설 위주의 대책은 하류에서의 더 큰 홍수를 발생시킬 위험이 있다. 기존 내배수시설의 전체적인 확장은 막대한 예산과 시간을 필요로 할 뿐만 아니라 지구온난화로 인한 이상기후 및 국지성 집중호우에 완벽하게 대응하기 곤란하므로 구조적인 대책과 더불어 집중호우에 대비할 수 있도록 각 시설물의 기능 및 경제성을 최대로 하며 방재성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 비구조적인 대책이 동시에 수립되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 비구조적인 대책 중 하나로 빗물펌프장 및 빗물저류조의 연계운영에 초점을 맞추었다. 모니터링 지점을 선정하여 빗물저류조의 추가저류공간을 확보하는 운영을 실시하고 빗물 펌프장 유수지의 수위를 낮추어 내수침수를 저감시킬 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 기존의 운영과 본 연구에서 제안한 연계운영을 비교하고 효과를 분석하였다.

Among various types of geothermal heat pump systems, Vertical Closed-Loop Geothermal Heat Pump (VGSHP) has received increasing attention due to a variety of advantages such as the potential to be installed in a relatively small space and improved energy efficiency. In this research, the performance of VGSHP system coupled with heat storage tank was evaluated, by analyzing operational behavior of heat storage tank, the variations of heat pump energy performance due to the connection with heat storage tank, part load ratios characteristics of heat pump and the corresponding energy cost, compared to chiller and boiler based conventional system. The results of this study showed that the VGSHP system coupled with heat storage tank showed an energy saving effect of about 18% for cooling and about 73% for heating, and annual heating/cooling energy cost reduction of 43,000,000 KRW ($ 39,000), compared to the conventional air conditioning system. In addition, after considering both energy cost and initial investment cost including equipment, installation and auxiliary device expenses, payback period of approximately 11.8 years was required.

The slowdown of the global economic market due to the pandemic is causing the global construction market to stagnate, and the use of smart construction technology is drawing attention as one of the main alternatives to overcome this problem. In fact, a number of previous studies have been published that smart construction technologies such as building information modeling and drones can contribute to project performance improvement, such as productivity improvement and cost reduction. However, previous studies focus on the application direction and technical effectiveness of smart construction technology, so the analysis in terms of the contribution that the application of the technology has to the project performance is insufficient. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to focus on the effectiveness aspect of the application of smart construction technology on the project performance. The results of this study are expected to be able to be used as basic data for establishing policies related to the activation of smart construction technology promoted by the government and setting the direction for the use of smart construction technology by stakeholders.

This paper verifies the superiority of warming work in winter by applying the insulation gang-form to the apartment housing site and analyzes the economic feasibility of the application. According to the experimental results, the actual cost of warming work was about 52 million won less than planned, and 160 million won less than the existing average.(Note - The cost of gang form material increased from 260 million won to 310 million won after the change) As a result, the construction cost could be reduced by about 110 million won. As the costs of warming work can change depending on the number of floors, the building number, and the area of each site, it is deemed necessary to conduct a thorough review in advance at the site where the cost of warming work is to be applied.

Tough Korean architecture and urban environment has been developed for almost 100 years, it still remains various kinds of problems. Many attempts was carried out by every new plan to reduce the problems, it result in requiring more investment than before. It means all the investment for the development has been inefficient and immature to protect economic problems compared with the developed country. For the reason of economic problems it must be studied in historical cases which influenced the economic impacts, before the proposal of index with the economic theory. Searching typical architecture or urban development that brought about economic impacts can be classified into 3 cases. First case is the impact that caused the economic growth, increase, boom like the Westminster & others and the american architectures after the economic crisis. Second case is the impacts that was the origin of decline, shrink in economic as the Palace of Versailles, the skyscrape buildings in america before the economic crisis. Third case is the impact that was the both role of increase and decline in economic as the modern architecture in industrial revolution which led to the national economic growth and the gap between the rich and the poor, and as the american architecture that was the root of crisis and the revival in economic. From the case study, it is clear that architecture has relation with economics in various factors as mass production, labour, and another industries all over the history & the world. Now, architecture strongly needed not only to raise functional, cultural effect and value, but to predict and control the economic impacts with theory from further research of historical cases to policy and practise.
