With the escalating prevalence of modular construction projects, there is a concurrent surge in scholarly and industrial intrigue in this domain, leading to a broadened spectrum of its applications. Modular construction, inherently facilitated by controlled factory settings, boasts the capability to consistently deliver edifices of superior quality. To optimize this advantage, the judicious integration of quality assurance methodologies during the site-specific phases of lifting and assembly is non-negotiable. This research embarked on a survey directed at project stakeholders, aiming to gauge the perceived significance and efficaciousness of prevailing quality preservation and oversight protocols during the aforementioned site stages, subsequently employing the Importance-Performance Analysis(IPA) for data interpretation. The findings elucidated that, while a majority of quality assurance procedures were adeptly executed, perceptual disparities existed among stakeholders regarding certain aspects, prompting recommendations for enhancement. This investigative endeavor lays a foundation, aiding future studies in amplifying the quality assurance cognizance among professionals during modular construction's site-assembly phase.

Although a range of machine excavation methods are in wide use, including casing, earth drill and reverse circulation drilling, deterioration in pile quality and faulty construction can be often found these days because of trouble in the construction field. For this study, research was conducted in the form of a survey of construction engineers working in the field in order to identify the types and the causes of trouble by focusing on all casing, earth drilling and reverse circulation drilling. By analyzing the causes of trouble, countermeasures could be presented. The data and the analysts presented in this study could be effectively used for minimizing trouble in future machine excavation work during construction.

Currently, the Off-Site Construction (OSC) construction method, which emphasizes the minimization of field work, is being emphasized at construction sites due to the lack of construction skilled manpower, extreme weather, and the Severe Disaster Punishment Act. In this study, we developed a stacked PC modular, which is a method of stacking PC modules, and solved the lifting problem by reducing the weight of the unit module, which is emerging as the biggest disadvantage of PC modules, to around 20 tons. For the connection between modules, structural safety was secured through repeated history tests of the wall and slab connection. Walls and slabs satisfied all statutory fire resistance times through fire resistance tests, and residential performance was evaluated to be satisfactory through mock-up demonstration. The developed PC modular has been applied to the construction of commercial houses, detached houses, shopping malls, churches, etc., and has design results for many buildings such as dormitories, detached houses with 4 floors or more, and resorts, so it is expected that an atmosphere of revitalization of construction methods will be created.

In this study, the cracking control performance of ultra-low shrinkage concrete was investigated by the field application. As a result, drying shrinkage crack occurred in normal concrete wall, but no crack occurred in ultra-low shrinkage concrete wall. It is determined that the drying shrinkage crack control effect of the ultra-low shrinkage concrete is excellent.

This study is to evaluate the feasibility of the mix design for exposed concrete. Mock-up sized specimens were prepared, and a flowing concrete method was selected for placement. Results showed that the fluidity and air content of fresh concrete achieved target values, the compressive strength at 7 days was 27 MPa, and surface roughness was in the range of between around 1.53 and 1.68 ㎛, which was in the quality level. Therefore it is concluded that the proposed mix design for exposed concrete can be applied in practice.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) and modular construction are regarded as important technologies that have contributed to advancements in the construction industry. However, the utilization of BIM in current modular construction projects is limited; moreover, there are no specific guidelines pertaining the applications of BIM in modular construction projects. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the utilization of BIM for onsite construction planning in modular construction projects. First, a realistic BIM application was selected through literature review and expert interviews. Then, the construction plan of the modular projects was analyzed to classify the BIM application items into five different categories. The utilization of BIM in each category was then analyzed in terms of necessity and efficiency using a questionnaire. Finally, the BIM Utilization Index (BIM UI) was suggested based on the findings of the survey. As a results, the BIM UI for module point details, lifting plan, other installation details, site layout plan, and schedule plan was 0.811, 0.787, 0.770, 0.729, and 0.699, in the descending order of usability. In addition, through the findings of the study and interviews with experts, a case study for implementation of BIM in modular construction plan was conducted. The results of this study can be used as application guidelines for BIM in future modular construction projects.

우리나라의 건설산업은 70년대에서부터 지금까지 압축된 경제성장 과정을 거치면서 인구의 도시 집중화 현상에 따른 엄청난 물량의 아파트 건설로 숨가쁘게 물량 공급에만 급급해 왔지 상대적으로 건설시공의 효율성과 합리적인 건설관리에는 소홀하여 왔다. 이는 곧 반복되는 부실시공과 대형 건설재해를 유발시켜 건설업에 대한 대중적인 이미지 실추는 물론 품질과 안전관리가 국가적인 위신문제로까지 대두되게 되었다. 이러한 시접에서 건설산업의 문제점을 풀어나가기 위한 개선책으로 등장하게 된 것이 CM이라고 생각한다. CM을 통하여 설계와 시공을 통합관리하고 현장 시공과정에 내포되어 있는 부실 요인을 찾아내어 제거하고 시정조치하고 이를 유사 Project에 Feed-back시킴으로써 점진적인 향상(Progressive Improvement)을 이루어내며 제약된 자원을 효율적으로 이용하여 원가를 절감함으로써 건설산업의 경쟁력을 강화시켜 나가는 것이 곧 CM 활용의 효과라 할 수 있을 것이다. 본 논문은 15년간 현장소장(Project Manager)의 경험을 바탕으로 CM기법을 건설현장에 적용 사례한 결과를 정리한 것이다.

In the cold-weathering concrete construction, it is important to ensure stable strength development of concrete in a low temperature environment. In this study, Non-curing cement(NCC) using the classified high fineness cement and self-heating powder was investigated for stable strength development without curing in a low temperature environment (less than $0^{\circ}C$). The actual size Mock-Up tests by various cement type and curing condition are performed to evaluate the strength development and hydration heat of concrete.
