As worldwide efforts to reduce global warming gases, the construction Industry is endeavoring to diminish carbon dioxides emissions. Especially, by introducing the LCA methodology to the industry, A variety of related studies to measure the emission of carbon dioxides have been conducted. However, when the conventional LCA methodology is applied to the construction projects, some limitations have been reported. To overcome the restrictions derived from the industry characteristics, this research suggested the Activity-based LCA model by applying the Activity-based Costing (ABC), which breaks down the whole life cycles into more detailed stages. By implementing the newly developed model, forecasting accuracy of $CO_2$ emission was elevated, and the critical control points on carbon dioxides were established. Through the case study of aluminium curtain-wall system, this research verified the usefulness of the Activity-based LCA.

This study is to evaluate the thermal insulation of the curtain wall of the buildings constructed since the 1990s to the buildings currently under construction in 2011 and to provide the basic data for repairing and reinforcing and designing the thermal insulation. To this effect, the temperature difference by part was analyzed through measuring the inside and outside surface temperature of the curtain wall of the office building, and thereafter, the conditions of the thermal insulation and the thermal bridge part were examined. The result of the study is as follows; Not only in the winter season when the temperature difference between the indoor-outdoor is over $20^{\circ}C$, but also in the summer season when there is a small temperature difference, the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the frame is $2^{\circ}C{\sim}4^{\circ}C$ equally. Under such conditions as stated above, the thermal bridge occurred, which resulted from the heat flow of the steel frame part (mullion, transom), and therefore, the reinforcement of the thermal insulation is considered to be needed.

As construction projects have been extremely enormous, complex and special, risk factors have been increased consistently. Therefore, it is very important to identify and cope with the uncertain risk factors in such building constructions for successful project accomplishment. The purpose of this research is to approach practical affairs directly and show detail alternatives of risk factors by extracting the risk factors throughout construction process of curtain wall that is largely influenced on cost, quality, schedule ,safety and following activity. Also, extracting these risk factors make it possible to analyze quantitative risk and decide the priority raking of risk factors. Especially, this research is aimed to provide efficient management of scheduling risk that can make the risk minimize to practical workers who have different degree of knowledge and experience to the construction cite when the risk brings out suddenly.

The optimal design of an air curtain nozzle installed at exits, such as fire doors, was determined in order to block the flow of smoke into safe zones. Smoke is the greatest cause of loss of life during the fire. To block the flow of smoke, the airflow must be expelled uniformly without eccentricity from the slits in the air curtain nozzle installed on the upper part of the opening. In order to accomplish this, factors such as air inflow volume, shape of the internal slits, and thickness of the external slits were considered as variables in this study, and a numerical analysis was performed under various conditions. This led to the selection of a final shape which led to the finalization of a design shape. The final shape was manufactured as a prototype and the results were compared and verified with the results of the numerical analysis. The relative error of the numerical analysis results was less than 1%, and the average speed of all the slits was tested, exhibiting a highly consistent tendency.

RFID-based logistics is increasingly adopted in various areas of the construction industry as a technology that can improve effectiveness and efficiency of construction logistics. However, the technology is not widely adopted yet compared to the potential of RFID applications in the construction industry that the existing research has shown. Since the validation and verification of the benefit from RFID applications were biased toward the productivity of managers, more wide aspect of validation and verification is necessary. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to show how much impact the RFID-based logistics management system can have on resource leveling and allocation that have a direct impact on a construction project as well as the managers' productivity improvement that was shown by the existing research. This paper also discusses issues arisen during the test process.

The effect of airconditioning and heating system when aircurtains installed in subway electrical rolling stock at entrance door. It blocks cold/hot air of outside. It is good for health with its blocking effect against dusts exhaust fumes, odor bugs and smoke from outside. It always maintains clean and pleasant atmosphere inside. It helps you to have health with its ever-equal temperature distribution at inside. It saves lots of maintenance cost for heating/cooling (about 86$\%$) since it cuts the loss of hot air under heating as well as of cold air under air-conditionin. Customers can feel pleasant go in and out (better than before) with the door. It is an indispensable product for the employers to cut the cost. It makes customers feel pleasant near doors, since it isnt influenced by temperature difference of cold/hot air when the door opens/closes. In electrical rolling stock passenger temperature is a lot different from that the door opens/closes. One of the main aims is to create an acceptable thermal environment without draught problem. Temperature, gradients when aircurtains installed in subway electrical rolling stock at entrance door have been studied. And the temperature measured at 0.1, 0.5, 1.3, 1.7m above the floor. It has been found that temperature, with large fluctuations caused more draught influence.
