Because designers want to express various elevation, architectural concrete has recently paid attention to finish material and has increasingly used in the construction. architectural concrete needs more careful and professional supervision works such as controling quality of color, texture, construction plan, and design plan. none the less, It is not clear to define process and manage methods for the construction life-cycle, which causes the expense to increase and the quality to be poor. this study will analyze concrete finish method by dividing three parts which are common, exposed and architectural concrete finish method. definition and the limit of application in architectural concrete finish method will be present by comparing three methods. Throughout an interview with a staff in charge and a case study, this paper shows the requirement and the keynote of management which are divided by three steps; the design, construction and maintenance. finally, this research provides management methods of individual steps for effective construction.

The Epoxy-coated Reinforcing bars have been proved to be able to extend a durability life because of its excellent corrosion resistance in bridges and structures under marine and severe environments. The usage of epoxy-coated reinforcement is continuously increasing in developed countries such as the US and Japan. However, domestic use is extremely limited due to lack of research and development, poor production facilities, low quality, increase of initial costs, and difficulty of field management. This study suggests the improvement of construction quality management such as manufacturing, transportation and construction for the field application through the test construction of the proven product in the related test results of the epoxy coated steel bars produced in the recently improved manufacturing facility.

This study undertook a empirical analysis, delving into the association between the direct construction approach and the construction quality of general construction companies. The research hinged on corporate financial data to elucidate the premise that a reduced emphasis on direct construction approach by general construction companies correlates with a notable prevalence of building defects. Specifically, the analysis engaged with the top 100 construction companies based on their construction capability evaluation in 2022. This appraisal leveraged the Empirical Research Model(ERM) rooted in financial data-sets spanning 2017 to 2021. Findings underscored that as the ratio of direct construction approach diminishes, the incidence of building defects amplifies, signifying a consequential dip in construction quality. Moreover, the research reaffirmed that companies with elevated construction capability evaluations or larger organizational scales tend to register decreased defect rates. This study fortifies, from a theoretical perspective, the legislative imperatives championing direct construction approach, by empirically spotlighting the potential perils of over-reliance on subcontracting.

The aim of this study is to improve quality system through mutual understanding for the opinion gap among interested parties such as owner, designer, constructor and supervisor in construction industry. The survey to the owners, designers, constructors, and supervisors who are in charge of quality of the 183 architectural projects being constructed has been performed for investigating the importance and actual level of quality and quality factors. Questionnaires are based on the quality factors shown in ISO 9001:2000 international quality management system requirements. There are distinct opinion gaps for quality among owner, designer, constructor, and supervisor who working for the same architectural projects.

For this study, a series of interviews with engineers in the Korean construction industry was carried out through a formal workshop format to analyze the causes of the inferior quality of builders' hardware. The authors established the causes of defects in window hardware construction in relation to the three aspects of system, design, and construction as involving the following seven factors: lack of system (including low ability to create construction specifications); low social awareness of the importance of window hardware; low technical capability to create design drawings; low design costs; small manufacturing capacity; low construction cost; and short duration of construction. Among the seven causes, the biggest cause of defects in window hardware construction is the lack of a system (low ability to create construction specifications), followed by low technical capability to create design drawings. In addition, this study carried out basic research to create measures to prevent defects in window hardware construction by analyzing how such causes of defects are distributed depending on the scale of architectural firms and construction companies during actual projects.

본 논문에서는 154kV 지중송전선로의 관로내 XLPE 케이블에서 발생하는 절연파괴 고장원인을 분석하였다. 일반적으로 케이블은 제조공정 과정에서 결함을 철저히 걸러내도록 조치하고 공장 출하시 시험을 통해 점거하고 있어, 케이블 자체고장은 현장에서 시공하는 접속함에 비해 매우 작지만 드물게 발생하고 있다. 케이블 자체에서 고장 발생시 고장원인 파악을 위해 제조 품질, 시공과정 등을 체계적으로 분석하고 검토하여 케이블 생산, 시공현장 품질저하 및 관리소홀 등으로 인한 케이블 고장을 최소화하고자 한다.

To express the original texture of the concrete, exposed concrete finishing technique has been applied in many buildings. However, it is likely to cause quality problems after construction is completed. In addition, because of costs and time issues, reconstruction and maintenance works are difficult and ineffective. Therefore, step-by-step proactive quality management based on sufficient consensus among participants(client, designer, contractor) is very importatnt. This study analyzed factors causing low quality exposed concrete and quality contol points applied to 'A' headquarter construction project.

The object of this study is to understand of the effectiveness characteristic in the field work which is controlled by the quality in the high-rise residential-commercial complex building. From the previous study, the quality improvement factors are investigated. Through the structured questionnaire, the opinions of the field engineers(University, Design firms, Construction company) are gathered in the improvement factors of construction phase. Comparing the results of questionnaire with the conception of field engineers, this study helps in revising and improving the quality control system including tangible factors and intangible factors in the frame work of the high-rise residential-commercial complex building project.
