Modular construction is one of the arising issues in the Korean construction industry due to shorter construction period and higher productivity on site. It is also expected that modular construction market would expand rapidly because of increasing demand of small houses by nuclear families and eco-friendly construction. However modular construction cases have been limited in Korea because of little demand in the market and the construction prices are even higher that the regular reinforced concrete methods. Even worse, because there is no standard bill of services exists in the industry, it may lead to the risk of construction expenses. So, the purpose of this study is focused on the development of bill of services which reflects characteristics and process of modular construction. In order to do this, the concepts and process of modular construction, WBS and CBS are analyzed. Analyses of the case studies and experts interview were executed so that proper principles for organizing bill of service of modular construction is established. Finally according to the 3 steps of modular construction, factory manufacturing, on-site modular construction and on-site general construction, the standard bill of services were suggested with the related coding system.

Indexes have played an important role as a economic indicator or performance indicator in many industries for a long time. In construction industry, indexes, or Construction Cost Index(CCI), have been used to compensate for the gap of time in Estimate Using the Historical Cost Data from Feb. 2004. CCI is composed of index formula and resources. Existing literatures had used Laspyeres Index as a index formula. And, Leontief table, the bills of quantities, and information of price surveyor were used as a resource. When applying Laspyeres formula and the resources to calculating the CCI, the problems such as double application of price fluctuation, calculating the incorrect weights, may be generated. This paper analyzed the existing economic relevant indexes as well as Laspyeres formula. Thus, feasibility of them was analyzed using three practical cases of apartments. And then, Quantity based Base Period Price Index(QBPPI) was developed to consider the characteristics of construction more accurately.

Recently there has been a trend of hiring more foreign labors in the Korean construction sites after the introduction of the government policy for foreign workers since 2007, called Employment Permit System(EPS). With the trend in the sites, the skilled and unskilled foreign workers would have become a main resource in the construction site workforce. This study aims to analyzing the effectiveness and the reality of working status for the foreign workforce. In doing so, both mail questionnaire survey and face to face interview with site managers and foreign labors in 38 apartment construction sites around Seoul region have been performed. The results of survey has been compared to the former research, which has been done for foreign labors hired under the old government policy, called Industrial Trainee System. This study found that there still exist many problems in reality of utilizing foreign workers in the sites, and proposed various recommendations for the effective use of foreign labors in the Korean construction industry.

I intend to grope for the desirable outdoor color environment creation plan through researching situation of our apartment houses color environment and grasping the point at issue. The rearch was made that Ilsan(16 items) new city apartment were selected and the color seperately measured such as the dominant, the aid, the accent colors through applied color component ratio was researched by calculating square measure of matched colors and through that the evaluation of apartment complex color environment was formed. The planned construction problems were issued from comparing the planned scheme and the present carrying color status guide by investigating the color plan applied Ilsan new city. The current out apartment outdoor color environment is poor, and the color plan of the early stage has many insufficient parts and many operation errors. For the creation of desirable color environment, the color plan establishment by regional characteristics, the color environment management, though exhaustive color consultation, and the external construction technique improvement, the standard color sheet diffusion, the color understanding of architects, the public relations (P.R), the education on the importance of color are required.

Quality is an important keyword representing the corporate competitiveness and image in today' s construction industry. Especially in concrete construction, any problems or defects in fresh concrete can significantly degrade the entire quality and performance of the facility built. Thus, adequate quality inspection and testing must be exercised over the fresh concrete, if concrete with the required strength, durability and appearance is to be obtained. The testing of concrete delivered to the construction job site involves testing of fresh concrete and performing strength tests on hardened concrete. The principal tests conducted on fresh concrete include the slump test and tests for air and salt content. The temperature of fresh concrete should be checked out hot or cold weather concreting. The 7-day and 28-day strength of hardened concrete are also determined by compression tests on usually cylinder samples. However, it is very complex and time-consuming process requiring a lot of efforts to document those on-site concrete testing results and to accumulate their historical data. The primary objective of this study is to suggest a unique PDA and web-based system which enables an on-site quality manager to effectively conduct the concrete inspection and testing, automatically document and accumulate the collected historical data, and promptly obtain the approval from supervisors. Finally, it is anticipated that the effective use of the proposed PDA and web-based system would be able to improve reliability of the concrete quality inspection and testing data as well as significantly reduce the approval process.

An influx of the population to the city has soared due to industrialization. As times go by, cities become densely populated so Korean government started to construct a number of buildings including apartment housings. Because they have become functionally, structurally, esthetically deteriorated over the past two decades. some improvements are needed. There are mainly two ways to improve old buildings: remodeling and reconstruction. Between the two, the first one is more popular as it is less time-consuming and more eco-friendly. Demolition work comes first for both of them and it should not give negative effects since it is regarded as a CP(Critical path) in the overall process. For this reason, a thorough construction management must be done. The reality, however, demolition is managed by the construction manager's experiences and decisions. If the key factor of demolition which is the planning of manpower and machine equipment, is determined by unscientific and subjective judgments, its period and risk also will increase. In particular, eco-friendly demolition can be more risky because it's been rarely conducted. Therefore, scientific and objective ways of demolition management are needed. In this context, this paper aims at analyzing productivity in each process of demolition focusing on manpower and machinery equipment which are the main parts of demolition assuming that the demands of eco-friendly remodeling demolition projects will be increasing. At the same time, by estimating working period through the output, this paper would be helpful to set up the plans for overall project in earlier stage.

최근 국제적인 여건과 사회적인 상황이 급변하여 대량생산-대량소비지향으로 인한 폐기물의 대량방출사회에서 지구환경보전을 중시하는 사회로 전환되어 가고 있다. 지구환경의 보전을 위하여 다양한 분야에서 각종 논의가 진행되고 있는 가운데 건축분야에서도 지구기후변화에 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있는 이산화탄소배출의 억제와 폐기물 삭감 등에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있다. 최근 관심이 집중되고 있는 건축물의 장수명화와 리모델링도 이러한 움직임과 궤틀를 같이 하는 것이다. 물론 리모델링은 신축시장의 급감에 따른 대체시장으로서 검토되고 있는 측면이 더 크게 작용하고 있는 것도 사실이지만, 그동안 신축에 대한 집중적인 투자에 중점이 두어져 재고건축물에서 간과해 왔던 유지관리와 리모델링에 대한 중요성 인식이 결부되어 있다고 보여진다. 사실 지금까지 리모델링이 전혀 이루어지지 않았던 것이 아니라 일반건축물 부문에서는 상당부분 이루어져 왔으며, 공동주택 부문에서도 극소수 이루어져 왔다. 리모델링에 대한 정의와 개념을 어떻게 보느냐에 따라 많은 차이가 있을 수 있지만, 리모델링은 건축물 또는 외부공간의 성능 및 기능의 노후화나 진부화에 대응하여 보수, 수선, 개수, 부분증축 및 개축, 제거, 새로운 기능추가 및 용도변경에 이르는 광범위한 행위를 포함한다. 리모델링을 통하여 건축물의 성능을 유지하거나 향상시켜 쾌적하고 건강한 건축물의 재고 를 구축함과 아울러 건강한 지역환경을 조성하여 국민생활의 질적인 향상을가져옴으로써 환경을보전하 고 자원낭비를 줄여 지속가능한 건축물과 사회를 만들어 갈수있도록 하는 것이다. 건축물에서 리모델링을 하게 되는 동기는 시간이 흘러 물리적인 측면이나 기능적인 측면에서 노후화가 발생하거나 기능적인 요구가 변화함에 따라 건설당시의 성능이나 기능유지가 어렵거나 건설당시의 기능만으로는 요구조건을 만족함 수 없기 때문에 건설 당시의 수준을 유지하거나 새로운 요구에 적합하도록 향 상시키기 위해서는 물리적 또는 기능적인 개선이나 개량이 필요하기 때문이다. 물리적인 개선이나개량을위하여 중요한것은건축 물을 구성하는 자재나 부품의 수명문제이다. 수명의 길이차이가 건축물의 리모델링에 영향을 주고 있을 뿐만 아니라 서로 다른 수명의 자재나 부품의 접합상태가 리모델링 공사에 많은 영향을 미치게 된다. 리모델링 공사가 신축공사의 70-80% 정도의 공사비가 소요되기 때문에 리모델링 공사가 어렵다는 업체의 불만은 바로 이러한 점을 극명하게 드러내는 좋은 사례이다. 본 고는 이러한 측면에서 건축물의 장수명화를 근간으로 한 설비의 리모델링을 용이하게 하기 위한 건축 계획 및 구법에 대하여 고찰하고자 한다. 그리고 본 고는 기존건축물의 설비자체의 보수나 개수를 용이하게 하는 것에 초점이 맞추어진 것이 아니라 건축설계 및 시공시에 향후 설비부분을 용이하게 개.보수할 수 있도록 배려하는 측면을 중심으로 설명하였다.
