Currently, TK(Turn-key) projects have been implemented, the projects on TK basis still have shown several problems rather than its own merits as a bidding method. Increasing the number of claims being occurred during construction process of the projects is reality because of unclear notice of tender documents and conditions of the contract, design review system, and decision process of the qualified bidder. To establish desirable TK projects in domestic market, not only should resonable alternatives for carrying out design review system and selecting the bid winner be set up, but also proper standards for reforming irrational system of contract, bid, and notice of tender related to TK projects. This study is intended to reduce the number of claims and implement efficient projects of apartment construction on TK basis by identifying potential problems through analysis of claim examples of TK projects which have difficulties of revising contract agreement such as drawings and suggesting improvement methods for contract conditions and notice of tender docuements.

Polypropylene-clay nanocomposites were studied by the modification of clay with amino silanes to introduce covalent bonds in nanocomposites, and prepared by melt-compounding with polypropylene, clay modified with amino silanes and maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene. The . .structure and surface properties of modified clay were determined by x-ray diffraction, infrared spectrum, and solid-state $^{29}Si$ nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum. The modification of clay with aminosilanes led to the increase of the silicate interlayers to about $19.8{\AA}$, the weakening effects of hydroxy group at $3650cm^{-1}$ and the signal of amine groups at -69 ppm proved that the modification had taken place.

A construction claim is generally caused by several causes, and in the case of developed countries, the most fundamental problem in most claims is a delay claim. Also, it is predicted that the trouble will increase by this one in a domestic case as well. Even though the construction claims occurred by the delay claim are the most frequent ill construction project, it is very difficult to analyze due to the complexity of occurring forms. Therefore, the rational judgement and the solving method need to be concerned through the accurate understanding the clauses accepted in a international contract execution and a domestic contrail when the claim occurred. The purpose of this study is to present problems and improving methods by comparing FIDIC with a domestic accounting regulation in order to expand a general condition into the international contract condition.

Many studies on cause and prevention of claim have been carried out but they were mostly intended to come up with the improvement measures, improvement system or the measures to deal with the claim, which consequently lacked the substantial ways to identify the details of claim for prevention purpose. That is, there's in fact no tool, in preparation for potential claims, to identify and review the major potential causes at design stage to mitigate the claim and thus, it's necessary to develop the tool such as checklist needed to prepare the claim-supporting documents, check the relevant laws as well as to identify the cause of claim. Hence the study, given the fact that cause of claim is mostly generated at the design stage though the claim itself tends to occur at the construction stage, was aimed at developing the checklist based on contract document such as design documents at design stage for public construction projects in a bid to prevent the potential claim occurred at the design stage.

In the presence of various clays, nylon/clay nanocomposites were synthesized by anionic polymerization of ${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam (CL) via monomer casting method. The effect of each clay on polymerization reaction was investigated and the change in gallery structure of clays during polymerization was analyzed by X-ray diffraction. When the three kinds of organo-clays were used in the amount of 2 wt% of CL, polymerizations were not successful due to an increase in viscosity during polymerization. Significant changes were not observed in the mechanical and thermal properties of the composites containing organo-clays with 1 wt%. On the other hand, composites containing natural clay up to 5 wt% were successfully prepared, and the composite with 5 wt% showed a decrease in tensile strength and elongation, and remarkable improvement in thermal properties.

In this study, we synthesized the aminoclay (AC) with magnesium ions and 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES). At the same time, propolis intercalated aminoclay (PIAC) and coptis extract intercalated aminoclay (CIAC) were synthesized by intercalating natural chemicals between clay sheets. Clay synthesis and natural chemical intercalation were confirmed through SEM, particle size analyze, FT-IR, TGA and XRD. In particular, the characterization of intercalation of natural chemicals was determined by analyzing the interlayer distance from XRD data. The antimicrobial property of PIAC and CIAC was checked by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) test and increased compared with that of the pristine aminoclay (AC).

The volume of Construction project is increasing now in Korea. The complexity and variety makes the project many problems. But there are few construction contract experts. This results in a lot of managerial conflicts. Specially Engineer/Designer confront gigantic risk related to their job. So, to classify and to identify the risk practical investigation about Engineer/Designer's job. Therefore, to avoid and to prevent the claims for Engineer/Designer, clarification of the scope of service, use of external claim expert, and introduction of professional liability insurance should be accomplished.

Because a procedure is complicated and various related parties participate in the redevelopment and reconstruction project, it can be extended to diverse disputes when the relation with the related parties is smoothly adjusted. In particular, when the dispute occurs in a phase of occupancy after the complete construction, the regional residents-centric association must give up many rights of invisible parts caused by the construction company's profit maximization because they are short of professionalism about the business. Accordingly, this study is aimed at providing the construction project manager's dispute and claim process for responding to the dispute or claim reasonably and for obtaining the client's (association) rights for the reconstruction project, and at developing the checklist for obtaining the necessary documents by each phase, when the dispute or claim is made by the association against the construction company after the completion of construction. Through this study, the association can obtain the related documents in advance and can implement the reasonable response data when the dispute or claim occurs due to it. Also, it will enable the construction manager to analyze the project costs reasonably and will reduce the estimated wastes. That is, the work efficiency is expected to be improved.
