The purpose of this study is to present a systemized flow of temporary facility(TF) planning information. The current TF planning tends to be established by subjective decision making of field workers. Therefore TF planning needs more systemized information flow to provide a reliable schedule. The study was implemented through interview with experts for reliable TF planning. The main contents of the study are as follows; 1) TF planning process model(IDEF0) are established. 2) Various information flow diagrams proposed to support TF planning decision-making. The study recommends that, as a future research, the computer system be developed for application of the information flow.

An optimal selection of form-work is very important in the construction project in terms of construction cost and duration management. Also, it substantially affects the quality of the structure and the finishing work. However, in South Korea, the decision making on the selection of form-work has been based on the experience and intuition of construction practitioners not on the objective data or rational decision-making system. In order to solve the problem, several types of research on the selection of form-work has been processed. However, they did not consider the construction site condition, which is one of the most important factors for the selection of form-work. Thus, the objective of this study is developing the objective decision supporting system considering the site condition. This study provides the quantitative decision support model for optimal form-work based on construction site type. It is expected that the decision support model will help the practitioners decide optimal form-work based on the objective data. It will ameliorate the existing decision making process using experience and intuition. In addition, because the model considers site-conditions, it will provide more accurate and appropriate decision on the selection of an optimal form-work.

Environmentally Sound and Sustainable Development (ESSD)" is a key word in recent years. The construction industry, have put a great influence on ergonomic and sustainable environment. Recently, "green building certifications", such as Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and eco-friendly material regulation have been established. With this regard, new construction and aged-housing remodeling projects are required to meet these certification criteria. Apartment residents have great concern on eco-product, since many cases are reported that Sick Building Syndrome is caused by toxic substance from building materials. Aged-housing remodeling construction has a unique characteristic in that the residents are already determined prior to construction execution. Therefore, the analysis of resident's need for building materials in aged-housing remodeling is relatively easy compared to new building construction. As such, it is very important to analyze their preferences for eco-friendly materials prior to project execution. The purpose of this study is to find the needs of residents and priority of their needs. Based on their needs and priority, this paper provides a new strategy in using environment-friendly materials and maximizing their satisfaction level when aged housing remodeling is constructed. In addition, this paper provide new criteria in selecting new developed environmental materials in remodeling projects for the purpose of improving the safety and health level in construction industry.
