This study presented the basic data for determining reasonable construction method and evaluating the structural safety of suspension bridges. The analytical program was developed to conduct initial shape and natural frequency analysis, construction stage analysis and reliability analysis considering construction sequences. This program was based on analysis models of suspension bridges and reliability theories used in the previous study. A construction method was established considering various construction variables such as construction order and construction direction of girder and synchronized construction of main and side span etc. The dynamic construction analysis by a construction scheme was conducted with the developed program. Benefits of the characteristic analysis by the construction scheme was presented estimating structural response of critical members respectively. Structural reliability analysis by construction stage was conducted considering aleatory uncertainties. The safety of suspension bridges by established construction method was quantitatively estimated using reliability index and failure probability. Analytical results were re-estimated considering epistemic uncertainties, and critical percentile distributions of risk at the construction stage were presented using the frequency histogram.

In the recent years, Korean construction companies have been awarded 680 billion USD in the oversea projects which lead to a successful quantitative growth. However, due to the lack of capability in the core technology and project management compared to the leading companies, in addition to low-price bidding, massive deficit projects have caused problems to the companies. In order to overcome the limitations of the lack of capabilities, the term constructability has been researched recently by developed countries to apply in the practical use. The concept of constructability must be applied for Korean companies to compete in the EPC construction projects. The term constructability is defined as the factor that affect the overall construction process of a project which is defined by the ease of construction and to secure the project quality. Therefore, this study aims to develop a constructability assessment model using the structural equation to assess the factors that affect the constructability in the design and construction stage. The purpose of using the structural equation is to analyze the direct and indirect correlation between each factor that affects the international construction projects. Total of 8 latent variables and 34 measured variables are derived through literature review, corporate reports, experts' interview and surveys. The result of the model suggests the constructability factors that are to be managed the most efficiently to reduce cost, time and improve the quality as well as a countermeasure strategy to successfully execute the target international construction projects.

The compaction grouting method is one of the conventional ground improvement methods, which consolidates and compacts the surrounding ground through the injection of grout materials with low mobility. Injecting the grout into the ground can improve the soil properties, as well as form a composite of soil-grout columns. However, the conventional grout pumping is not applicable to handle multiple injection holes at the same time, which may diminish its constructability when the construction time is not enough. This paper proposes a simultaneous multiple compaction-grouting method using a new pump system developed to cover up simultaneously three injection holes at a time. Field injection tests with a single injection hole and with triangular arrangement of injection holes were conducted to evaluate the applicability of the proposed method to soft clay ground. In addition, a series of standard penetration tests (SPTs) were performed to assess the efficiency of each arrangement in improving the soft ground. It is noted from the in-situ test results that the interval distances between injection holes and the elapse time for ground stabilization are the crucial factors governing the applicability of the simultaneous multiple compaction-grouting method to improve the soft clay ground.

Explosive blasting, hydaulic power unit and rock splitter are typically utilized for rockmass breakage and cutting in reconstruction of building structures and other construction site. Hydraulic rock cutting method, that can be utilized any weather conditions, has been applied mainly by experience for controling damages caused by vibration, noise and rock cuttings, and reducing damage claim by protecting adjacent structures. However, it is required to understand the characteristics of rockmass to improve operation efficiency. Although every cutting method has its own advantage, but it should be applied by considering site circumstance and rockmass properties in details to maximize the operation efficiency and economic feasibility.

최근들어 교량 건설 프로젝트는 그 규모가 방대해 졌을 뿐만아니라, 건설에 사용되는 장비 및 자재, 인력의 종류 또한 다양해 지고 있다. 이에 따라 종래 구조적 안전만을 추구하던 건설현장은 이러한 제반 요소들을 효율적으로 관리하여 경제성뿐만 아니라 시공의 효율성 까지 고려할 수밖에 없게 되었다. 따라서 건설 현장의 진도 및 자재, 인력관리는 현대 건설 산업의 주요 과제라 할 수 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 현장의 시공정보를 무선으로 송신할 수 있는 단말기 및 RFID를 이용하여 종래에 시행되던 작업을 자동화함으로써 작업의 편리성을 도모하고 이를 통하여 시간과 인력의 낭비를 줄일 수 있는 시공관리 시스템에 대한 모듈을 제안 하였다. 제안된 시스템은 3D모델을 기반으로 하여 진도 및 공비를 한눈에 알아볼 수 있는 방안을 제시한다. 사용자는 현재 진행되고 있는 공정을 3차원 모델에서 확인할 수 있으며, 현재까지 사용된 비용 및 공정률을 손쉽게 확인할 수 있다. 3D모델은 공사 시작 전 공정에 맞추어 분절된 형태로 제작되어 현장에서 송신한 위치정보가 통합관리 시스템에서 수신되면 해당 새그가 화면에 나타나게 된다. 3D모델은 공정시각화의 역할을 할 뿐만 아니라 각 새그에는 사용된 자재의 종류나 수량등이 DB화 되어 있어, 실시간으로 공사에 사용된 물량을 산출 할수 있도록 한다. 시공정보의 수신은 각 자재에 부착한 RFID태그를 직접 읽어서 송신하거나, 작업자가 시공상황을 단말기를 통하여 직점 송신함으로써 이루어지게 된다. 수집된 시공정보는 3D모델과 연계됨과 동시에 통합관리 시스템에 내장된 DB와 연결되어 사용 자재 및 물량에 대한 비용산출에 중요한 역할을 하게 된다. 현재 우리나라의 교량 시공 현장에서는 기성청구시 내역서를 기준으로 비용을 산정하게 되는데, 시공관리 통합 프로그램에서는 각 공정이 DB화된 내역서와 연계되어 3D모델에서 얻어진 물량으로 공비를 산출하는 과정이 자동으로 이루어지게 된다. 이러한 과정은 단일 현장뿐만 아니라, 공구 내의 여러 교량 현장에 대하여도 적용이 가능하므로, 방대한 현장의 공사관리에 소요되던 시간과 노력을 절감 할 수 있다. 본 연구를 통하여 현장에서 이루어지는 공사관리 작업에 대해 IT기술을 접목하여 자동화 할 수 있는 방법에 대한 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 이는 모바일 오피스 및 단말기를 이용하여 현 공정까지 사용된 물량, 인력, 장비 정보를 관리하는 한편, 현재까지 진행된 공사 내용을 3D모델을 통하여 한눈에 알아볼수 있는 교량 건설현장 통합관리 시스템의 모듈을 제공한다. 이에따라 공무 작업에 소모되는 인력 및 시간을 크게 절약 할 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

As the recent structure construction is constructed as a large-scale and deep underground excavation in close proximity to the building, the installation of retaining wall and supporters (Struts) has become complicated, and the number of supporters to avoid interference of the structural slab has increased. This construction process becomes a factor that causes an increase in construction joints of a structure, leakage and an increase in wall cracks. In addition, this reduced the durability and workability of the structure and led to an increase in the construction period. This study planned to dismantle the two struts simultaneously as a plan to reduce the construction joints, and corrected the earth pressure by assuming the reaction force value by the initial earth pressure and the measured data as the response ratio. After recalculating the corrected earth pressure through the iterative trial method, it was verified by numerical analysis that simultaneous disassembly of the two struts was possible. As a result of numerical analysis applying the final corrected earth pressure, the measured value for the design reaction force was found to be up to 197%. It was analyzed that this was due to the effect of grouting on the ground and some underestimation of the ground characteristics during design. Based on the result of calculating the corrected earth pressure in consideration of the response ratio performed in this study, it was proved analytically that the improvement of the brace dismantling process is possible. In addition, it was considered that the overall construction period could be shortened by reducing cracks due to leakage and improving workability by reducing construction joints. However, to apply the proposed method of this study, it is judged that sufficient estimations are necessary as there are differences in ground conditions, temporary facilities, and reinforcement methods for each site.

The construction sites of small and medium buildings have small scale groundwork and the depth of excavation is often shallow. In this case, if the groundwork, girders, and ground slabs are built simultaneously by embedded assisting form rather than the existing conventional method to place concrete twice using the general form, we can expect to reduce the frame duration of the basement, resulting in cost savings. The existing embedded assisting form is restricted from use because there are cost problems with materials, labor costs,and with quality depending on the form's type. Therefore, this study is to provide an improved suggestion of building the groundwork, girders, and ground slabs simultaneously with Polystyrene by using the embedded assisting form. It also will compare the technique with existing methods of construction, and will verify its usefulness by evaluating each method of construction.
