Recently, BIM has been actively adopted in construction projects and industries, and also integrated with Information and Communications Technology(ICT) such as cloud computing technology, sensor technology, 3D scanning and printing technology etc. However, it is very difficult to efficiently utilize BIM services, technologies and collaborate with each other because of differences of usage and requirements of technologies. Every participant in the same construction project has their own needs, requirements and details of the model in each phase. In order to enhance utilization BIM model, BIM services and technologies required in their project have to be clearly defined in the initial stage of the project. In order to support the owner to define the BIM level, BIM service level and application technologies are identified and guidelines how to define the level and technologies for their project purpose are suggested in this study.

Construction value engineering(VE) is often performed in the form of a short term review of designs, rather than during a regular workshop with a standardized work plan, and its application method is limited. Thus, tasks are performed by applying the method in reverse depending on the VE results, and function analysis, a key VE method, is omitted or only applied for the sake of formality. In addition, it is hard to expect great results from VE because of insufficient time and budget allowed to perform VE and a lack of understanding of VE procedures and methods. In particular, the methods used to store and reuse the tremendous amount of ideas and information created during the process of VE implementation is not systematic. Even the Korea Expressway Corporation, which has produced relatively systematic VE performance compared to other institutions, has had the above-mentioned problems. Therefore, this study aims to improve existing VE processes and suggest a method to efficiently store and retrieve VE information by analyzing the limitations of construction VE practice and the characteristics of VE for highway facilities as part of improving design VE performance.

The Sacheonwangsa Temple in Silla is an esoteric temple that was founded provisionally in 670, and was completed in 679. This study attempted to elucidate the planning method of the Sacheonwangsa Temple based on the results of research on excavations and investigations into its construction processes and construction measures thereof. The research results are as follows. (1) In the site construction, assuming the size of one Bang (坊) on the south of Nangsan Mountain, after dividing the north-south width into three equal parts, there is a possibility that two of these parts were set to the flat portion. (2) In the 'Jochang (祖創, 670)', it is estimated that an area of 300 cheoks by 300 cheoks was postulated on the flat surface, and, as an initial conception, the mandala's plane design of the outer square 2 hasta (3 cheoks) and inner square 1 hasta (1.5 cheoks) was originally devised for the setting of 'Mudra (神印)', and an area 100 times greater has been set as the basis in the scale and layout planning of the central block. (3) During 'Gaechang (攺刱, ~679)', it is judged that because of the narrowness of the distance between the Pagoda and Geumdang Hall, which occurs when the center of the Geumdang Hall coincides with the center of 'the first stage of the foundation (先築基壇)', the scale and layout planning were adjusted from the initial conception. (4) The arrangement of the building was determined by dividing the fixed size of the central block (280 cheoks by 320 cheoks). Specifically, the east-west direction is set on the quartile's line of the east-west width of the central block, and in contrast, the north-south direction is based on the structural characteristics of the central block. It is presumed that the position of the transept was determined through the division and adjustment of the column spacing of the east-west corridor, then the Geumdang Hall and Altar were based on this. (5) The scale of the Geumdang Hall and Pagoda is determined by the petition of the division by the unit fraction starting from the quartile's line of the central block's east-west width. This planning is understood to be based on the self-similarity, which is rooted in the mandala's plane design as the model.

As international criteria and standards are required in the fields of design and construction, landscape performance must also be considered not only for the value of the landscape but also for providing quality assurance and sustainability. Given the lack of research on landscape performance, the present research was purposed to analyze the importance of potential assessment categories and items using an analytical network process. A list of assessment items, which is composed of 20 items and 6 categories, was derived through a literature review and a preliminary survey of 11 landscape professionals. An ANP model was established and a survey was conducted among 30 landscape practitioners to determine the weight of priorities considering the criteria. The results of ANP showed that the categories of site selection, preservation and health, and convenience had high priorities while materials had the lowest importance score. For the assessment items, a monitoring plan was the highest importance, followed by cultural/ historic preservation, management cost reduction, and natural ground areas. Despite the difficulties in quantifying landscape achievements, most respondents agreed that there needs to be an evaluation system for landscape performance in order to assure the quality and sustainability of landscape development. More research and discussion are needed to develop an assessment system for landscape performance that is applicable to Korean context.

This study was carried out to the actual conditions and improvement of the eco-forests master plan in South Korea, and suggested its problems and improvement direction. Results from survey and analysis of limiting factors or constraints in the construction plans of eco-forests in Korea revealed that there were highly frequent problems involving site feasibility, topographic aspect, and existing vegetation. The results of survey on the status of land use indicated that the average ratio of the use of private estate was 29.7%, so then it was estimated that a great amount of investment in purchase of eco-forest site would be required. Results from survey on major introduced facilities showed that there was high frequency of introduction of infrastructure, building facility, recreational facility, convenience facility, and information facility, and that there was low frequency of introduction of plant culture system, ecological facility, structural symbol and sculpture, and the likes. There was just one eco-forest park where more than 500 species of plants grew, and the result of investigation indicated that the diversity of plant species in 11 eco-forest parks was lower than the standards for construction of eco-forest. Results from analysis of the projects costs revealed that investment cost in facilities was higher than planting costs, and that a large amount of investment was made in the initial stage of the project. There was no planned budget for the purpose of cultivating and maintaining the plants and vegetation after construction of eco-forest. The basic concepts in construction of eco-forests were established according to the guidelines presented by the Korea Forest Service; however, the detailed work of the project was planned with its user-oriented approach. Then the construction of eco-forest was being planned following the directions, which would lead to development of a plant garden similar to arboretum or botanical garden. Therefore, it is required that the architect who designs eco-forest as well as the public officer concerned firmly establish the concepts of eco-forest, and that, through close analysis of development conditions, a candidate site to fit the purpose of constructing eco-forest be selected, and also a substantive management plan be established upon completion of construction of eco-forest.

Urban Skyline is strongly influenced by high-rise buildings. It is changed and becoming over time and is formed by the human choice. This study does an analysis of the foreign urban skyline managements in three aspects: criteria and control, operation and deliberation, and citizen participation and inducement. It draws common characteristics of foreign cases; preparing rational and premeditated building height control in the aspect of district, transformation from height restrictions of individual building to height standards in the aspect of urban landscape, devising efficient design review and citizen participation methods, and administrative processing for an integrated building height management. It also suggests policy implications for preparing both comprehensive and systematic building height standards in the aspect of district to create a desirable city image and urban skyline.

우리나라는 물의 재이용 촉진 및 지원에 관한 법률에 따라 수자원의 지속 가능한 이용을 목적으로 빗물이용시설의 설치 및 운영을 법·제도적으로 의무화하고 있으며, 위 법에 근거하여 지방자치단체에서는 빗물이용시설의 설치를 장려하기 위한 재정 지원 정책을 시행하고 있다. 환경 투자사업의 일환인 빗물이용시설 설치 사업은 장기간에 대한 경제성 분석이 요구되며, 분석에 이용된 경제성 분석 방법 및 사회적 할인율에 따라 분석 결과가 상이할 수 있다. 이에 따라, 이 연구에서는 순현재가치와 편익-비용 비율을 비교·검토하여 빗물이용시설의 경제성 분석에 적합한 방법을 제시하였으며, 경제성 분석에서 불확실한 요소인 사회적 할인율과 물가상승률에 대한 민감도 분석을 통해 두 요소의 불확실성을 평가하였다. 분석 대상 시설은 인천 청라지구 1공구에 계획된 빗물이용시설이며, 경제성 분석 기간은 지방공기업법 시행규칙에 제시된 건축물의 내용 연수인 30년으로 하였다. 편익-비용 비율을 이용하여 빗물이용시설의 경제성을 분석한 결과, 저류용량이 285 m³에서 최대 수익률이 나타났으며, 순현재가치는 저류용량이 1105 m³일 때 최대 수익이 발생하는 것으로 분석되었다. 분석 대상 지역의 경우에 285 m³에 대한 양적 신뢰도는 7.3%로 빗물이용시설의 효과를 기대하기 어려운 결과이며, 이와 같은 결과는 편익-비용 비율이 사업의 경제성을 수익률로 평가함에 따라 투자 규모를 반영하지 않는 한계로 인한 것으로 판단된다. 사회적 할인율과물가상승률에 대한 민감도 분석 결과, 사회적 할인율이 낮아지고 물가상승률이 높아짐에 따라 빗물이용시설의 저류용량과 그에 상응하는 최대 순현재가치가 커지는 경향을 보였다. 이는 미래가치를 높게 평가할수록 빗물이용시설의 저류용량이 크게 설계될 수 있음을 의미한다.

This research analyzed the status and problems of civilian expert programs for landscape architects to suggest alternatives to improve the current system. Literature research focused on the issues of the legal definition of civilian experts, the background of the program, and related regulations. Based on the understanding of the legal system, the research analyzed the operation status, structure, roles of the civilian expert program of local governments where landscape architects were delegated as civilian experts. Currently, 50 local governments are running the civilian expert program, and landscape architects are working as civilian experts in 11 institutions. The majority of landscape architects are working as MA or general architects. Only SMG runs an independent general landscape architect program. Based on the literature research and interviews with 16 experts, the research examined four main issues related to the program. First, the legal system issues of the civilian expert programs are related to the regulations assuming architects as experts. Revising the current legal system is a better alternative than promulgating a new law for landscape architects. Second, the compensation issue was a main problem related to operation. Securing a sufficient budget and more effective administration is required to solve the problem. Third, related to the role, the tasks being limited to consultation were regarded as the main problem. Although landscape architects wanted more opportunities to directly participate in the project's design, the fairness of the public project contracting system needed to be considered. Fourth, the competence issue is related to the number of available landscape architects. This issue can be solved by expanding the pool of civilian experts to adjacent disciplines, such as public design or landscape management.

After World War II, modular housing was developed as a means of quickly and efficiently meeting the housing supply demand. For the past 30 plus years, efforts have been made to improve modular housing in South Korea and to increase their competitiveness in the housing market. This study investigated modular houses based on a steel framed rahem structure which provides a flexible floor plan where walls are easily reconfigured to create rooms of various sizes and functions. Similar to the factory production methods used in the automotive industry, the modular housing industry can also benefit by standardizing such aspects as building components, manufacturing and construction methods, materials, process management, and floor plans. This study examined the feasibility of using a 3m × 3m module for developing various floor plans which are easy to produce and transport. Each 3m × 3m module can be configured to meet different living needs resulting in a complete home when multiple modules are connected. The module configurations can be varied to meet ground transportation and crane limitations. This study found that a 3m × 3m steel framed modular unit is a promising step towards providing residents with plans that meet their living preferences while improving and increasing the supply of modular houses.
