Purpose: This study aims to examine the trends in healthcare architecture research by analyzing papers published in KIHA (Journal of the Korea Institute of Healthcare Architecture) and HERD (Health Environments Research and Design Journal) in the USA. The analysis categorizes these papers into Evidence-Based Design (EBD) and non-EBD research from a comparative perspective. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted on 370 papers published in KIHA and 399 papers published in HERD from 2007 to 2022. The research trends were analyzed based on the researchers' fields of study, research focus, and research attributes. Results: The findings indicate that HERD involves researchers from 43 different fields, whereas KIHA involves researchers from 16 fields, indicating less diversity. HERD predominantly includes interdisciplinary and empirical studies, while KIHA primarily features theoretical and single-discipline studies. Papers in HERD generally demonstrate a higher level of evidence compared to those in KIHA. Implications: Direct comparisons should be approached with caution due to the differing contexts of healthcare architecture research in the two countries. The methodological efforts in HERD and the functional analysis results in KIHA provide valuable references for the future direction of healthcare architecture research. Expanding collaborative and interdisciplinary research involving various professionals is essential to advance the field.

Due to the Korean government's renewable energy support policy such as the renewable energy utilization building certificate and enlarging the compulsory ratio of investment on the public building, the rooftop photovoltaic projects are expanding rapidly. It is very important for the rooftop photovoltaic projects to analyze the shading effect of the adjacent structures or own facilities. But, the photovoltaic arrangements are planned by the experience of the designers or simple graphic tools. The purpose of this study is to build the process model for optimizing of rooftop photovoltaic arrangement based on three-dimensional geo-spatial information.

The effective control of cost overrun is a crucial issue for construction companies to secure profitability. Especially in situations where cost pressures are significant due to factors such as rising raw material prices and increased financial costs due to high-interest rate policies, cost overruns resulting from project failures have a highly detrimental impact on the profitability of construction firms. The objective of this study is to analyze the current status of cost overrun control measures adopted by construction companies using the IPA technique and provide key characteristics and implications. The IPA analysis results showed that practitioners in general contractors exhibit a high level of interest and effort regarding cost overrun while the performance level is relatively low. Nevertheless, the measures considered important to control cost overruns generally show a high tendency for execution as well. Cost overrun control measures that show high importance but low execution are primarily related to collaboration and communication sectors. To effectively control cost overruns, enhancing collaboration and communication with construction supervisors/CM, headquarters, and regulatory authorities emerged as the most urgent need. Through this study, the current status and areas for improvement regarding cost overrun control measures in general contractors can be identified. This can be valuable for deriving directions and enhancements for future cost overrun control strategy development.

Recently, high-rise buildings have been increased with the development of economy in domestic, and theses fire riskiness has been brought up. However, fireproof design standards is not enough. So, this study was to make a comparative study on the fire resistance design standards of building in domestic and foreign. As a results, it is necessary that fireproof design standards is revised.

최근 건축물은 초고층화의 경향을 보이고 있으며 이에 따라 하중감소 및 에너지 절약을 위한 외장재를 사용하고 있으나 화재 안전성은 고려되지 않아 화재 위험성이 증가되고 있다. 또한 높은 층수에 의한 바람의 영향이 증가하여 화재 시 큰 변수로 작용될 위험성이 있다고 판단되었다. 이에 초고층에서의 화재 안전과 관련 규정이 추진되고 있으나 여전히 미흡한 실정이며 화재 안전 대책이 강구되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 초고층건축물의 화재 시 외장재와 바람이 화재 성상에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 2010년 부산에서 발생한 초고층 주상복합건축물의 화재 사고를 FDS를 통해 분석한 결과, 화재 시 풍속을 적용한 경우가 적용하지 않은 경우에 비해 빠른 수직, 수평 화염 확대를 보였으며, 높은 최대 HRR값을 보였다.

Looking at recent construction cases at winter construction sites, there is a risk that heat sources such as kerosene fans and fossil fuels (brown coal, molded carbon) used in concrete will cure rapidly, so in situations where further curing is impossible after formwork removal, the outer wall and the entire slab are exposed to rapid external deterioration, resulting in delays in concrete strength expression and until collapse accidents. In this study, we applied kerosene fans and tropical circulating electric heat fans mainly used as curing heat sources at construction sites, comparative analysis. also verified the performance of structures during concrete curing due to thermal convention / circulation performance, concrete demand strength expression, and implementation of electric heat fans by heavy disaster methods.

Cost management is a major function of CM (construction management) companies for clients and cost estimating is a critical task in that it provides a baseline for cost management and a foundation for decision making in construction projects. For this purpose, CM companies need to obtain and use good quality data, which leads to more accurate and efficient cost estimating. As the use of big data becomes increasingly important in the construction industry, researches related to the theme have become the active areas of studies. However, literature review shows that the current situations in relation to the use of big for cost estimating of CM companies are under-researched. The objective of the study is to identify key characteristics and implications in the use of big data for cost estimating of CM companies, which can contribute to develop strategies for such purposes.

Since the interest in big data is growing exponentially, various types of research and development in the field of big data have been conducted in the construction industry. Among various application areas, cost estimating can be a topic where the use of big data provides positive benefits. In order for firms to make efficient use of big data for estimating tasks, they need to establish a strategy based on the multifaceted analysis of internal and external environments. The objective of the study is to develop and propose a strategy of the use of big data for construction management(CM) firms' cost estimating tasks based on the SWOT analysis. Through the combined efforts of literature review, questionnaire survey, interviews and the SWOT analysis, the study suggests that CM firms need to maintain the current level of the receptive culture for the use of big data and expand incrementally information resources. It also proposes that they need to reinforce the weak areas including big data experts and practice infrastructure for improving the big data-based cost estimating.

2014년 개정된 물의 재이용 촉진 및 지원에 관한법률(이하, 물재이용법)에 따라서 빗물이용시설의 수는 꾸준히 증가하고 있는 추세이나 실제 연간사용량의 경우 연별 증가량은 미미하다. 또한 2016년도 환경부 하수도 통계에 따른 2,043개의 빗물이용시설 중 집수면적 미파악시설의 749개, 여과시설 유무 미파악시설 564개, 연간 운영비 산출 불가능 시설 1,843개, 연강 사용량 미집계 시설 905개로 관리실태가 부실함을 확인할 수 있다. 이에 빗물이용시설의 설치·운영 실태조사 및 문제점을 분석하고 빗물이용이 비교적 활성화 된 시설을 대상은 현장조사를 수행을 통해 빗물이용시설의 현황을 분석하고 현실적인 여건을 반영하여 빗물이용을 활성화할 수 있는 방안을 마련하고자 하였다. 물재이용법에 따른 빗물이용시설 법정의무대상시설의 빗물활용처는 전체의 약 92%가 조경요수로 활용하고 있으며, 다음으로 청소화장실용수(약 3%)로 활용하고 있다. 건축물 용도에 따라서 골프장, 공공기관청사/공공업무시설, 대규모점포, 실내체육관/종합운동장, 학교의 경우 건축물 용도별로 각 30% 정도가, 공동주택의 경우 약 60%가 빗물이용시설을 활용하고 있음에도 빗물을 사용하지 았는 것으로 파악되었다. 이는 빗물을 사용해야하는 시기에 저류조에 저류된 빗물의 양이 부족한 것과 운영비 부담 순으로 조사되었다. 따라서 빗물이용시설의 빗물이용활성화를 위해서는 물수요-공급에 대한 개념을 도입한 물수지 분석이 필요하며, 운영비 부담을 줄일 수 있는 다양한 방안을 탐색하는 것이 적절할 것이다. 현장조사 결과에서도 기술 등의 발달로 빗물이용시설은 잘 구축되고 있으나 활용처에서 필요한 필요수량에 따라 활용률이 상이한 것으로 조사되었다. 이러한 실태조사 및 현장조사를 바탕으로 빗물이용시설의 빗물이용 활성화를 위한 방안에 대하여 기술적 및 제도적 방안에 대해서 제안하였다.
