Building energy use estimation relies on building characteristics, its energy systems, occupants, and weather. Energy estimation of new buildings is considerably an easy task when compared to modeling existing buildings as they require calibration with actual data. Particularly, when energy estimation of existing building stock is warranted at a city-scale, the problem is exacerbated owing to lack of construction drawings and other engineering specifications. However, as collection of buildings and other infrastructure constitute cities, such predictions are a necessary component of developing and maintaining sustainable cities. This paper uses Artificial Neural Network techniques to predict electricity consumption for residential buildings situated in the City of Gainesville, Florida. With the use of 32,813 samples of data vectors that comprise of building floor area, built year, number of stories, and range of monthly energy consumption, this paper extends the prediction to environmental impact assessment of electricity usage at the urban-scale. Among others, one of the applications of the proposed model discussed in this paper is the study of urban scale Life Cycle Assessment, and other decisions related to creating sustainable cities.

As buildings become increasingly diverse in size and type, a continuous process of generating and processing various information within these structures occurs. This process is being addressed with the advancement of high-speed information and communication technology, which is being extensively applied in buildings. Such changes are institutionalized through the certification of high-speed information and communication buildings. This certification is crucial for ensuring the quality and connectivity of the essential communication infrastructure in modern buildings. Building Information Modeling (BIM) has established itself as an effective tool for the integrated management of design, construction, and operation in architectural projects. This research aims to refine and categorize the evaluation criteria suitable for the building certification based on high-speed information and communication criteria and to explore the applicability of BIM tools based on these criteria. By enhancing the substitution and connection of each library, the functionalities of BIM programs for a comprehensive review of information and communication facilities are expected to be applied in a more utilitarian direction.

The number of public libraries in Korea has been dramatically increased over the last 40 years. since the first Korean Libraries Act was passed in 1963. However, the public library infrastructure is still inadequate and there is a big difference between the number of public libraries in Korea and western countries. This result proves that Korea's method of enhancing its public library infrastructure has not been effective. Therefore, this study suggests the building of small, rather than large. public libraries as a more effective means of enhancing the public library infrastructure in Korea - the method adopted in Great Britain.

In this paper, we present a scalable data delivery infrastructure for such IoT computing environment where we need a common platform where data providers share their diverse sensing data and applications can easily access and receive such data from providers. For efficient data delivery, this paper proposes a new delivery path management technique that take advantage of diverse consumer QoS when building bandwidth-efficient delivery paths. We perform primitive experiments on the path construction and reconstruction which may be major overhead of the scalable infrastructure. The results show that the proposed infrastructure achieves a high level of scalability, and demonstrates that the management overhead is not significant.

In Korea, National spatial data infrastructure has implemented in order to integrated manage and share the national spatial information producted by public agencies and local governments. The necessities of systematic quality management are raised, because information, which is generated by different agencies, is integrative managed by national level. In this paper, the establishment of BPR(Business Process Reengineering) for national spatial data infrastructure quality management system. Quality management business is defined as quality management object definition, quality measuring, evaluation and analysis, and quality enhancement process. Next, activities for each process are designed. For the quality management business, business rule(BR) is required for determining error. We derive the BR for six objects(legal-dong, railway boundary, railway centerline, road boundary, road centerline, building) among the basic spatial information. Other information's BR can be generated by using the derivation method described in this paper. Based on the BPR of this paper and derived BR, national spatial data infrastructure quality management system can be implemented in the future.

Mongolia is a developing country with a smaller population living across a large territory where infrastructure is underdeveloped. The country has been actively implementing road construction in recent years. The Mongolian government has increased investments in new road construction, but funding for major maintenance or reconstruction projects declined between 2012 and 2016. On the other hand, road network management has not been implemented owing to insufficient road maintenance and If the road network expands, there is a risk that the cost of overall maintenance will increase significantly in the future. Therefore, in order to cope with these problems, this study reviewed applying Korean road model to Mongolia for systematic management of road infrastructure.

In order to use BIM as a tool for improving the productivity and quality of products in the construction industry, a BIM model must be created from the design stage first. Infrastructure structures such as bridges and tunnels are mainly created based on three-dimensional alignment in the generation of BIM models. Especially, generation of BIM models based on three-dimensional linearity has high task difficulty and algorithms for automating BIM modeling for railway infra structures have been suggested in previous studies. This study improved the BIM modeling automation algorithm of railway infrastructures and developed a system based on the algorithm so that it can be easily used by ordinary users. The system was built as an add-in system of Autodesk's Revit. As an improvement first, it is possible to arrange different libraries for each pattern, enabling various uses. In addition, it can be created models of several members with a single process and the system can automatically places structures that are added periodically, such as Rock Bolt and Fore Polling. Finally, 3D length information and volume for each pattern are automatically calculated for more accurate 3D-based volume calculation. This study contributes to increasing user accessibility by building a BIM modeling automation algorithm into a system. The system is expected to improve the efficiency of BIM modeling creation of linear-based infra structures, including railway infrastructure.

Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport(MOLIT) has increased reduction rate from 18.1% to 32.7% in Building sector compared to BAU of the national greenhouse gas emission according to the 2030 Greenhouse Gas Reduction Road map Amendment. For this purpose, MOLIT has been activating the green remodeling projects for existing buildings. Considering that 15 year old buildings after completion are 74% (5.25 million buildings) among about 7 million existing building stocks in Korea, reduction of building energy consumption by green remodeling is urgently needed, However, it is a major difficulty of activation for green remodeling projects because there are few case studies on Before and After building energy consumption of actual green remodeling projects. Considering that building energy performance and value increase after green remodeling through previous researches, additional studies of the energy consumption assessment on actual green remodeling projects are essential. Therefore, this study aims to propose results on Before and After building energy consumption of actual green remodeling projects.

In this paper, the physical properties, stress deformation and strength characteristics, density and permeability characteristics of silty sand (SM) by fines content were analyzed through indoor tests. also based on the results of the indoor tests, a compact analysis was performed according to the content of SM, and the applicability of SM ground to the compacted target layer was evaluated by comparing it with the measurement data of the actual problem site. As a result of indoor tests and compression analysis, SM changed its mechanical properties from sandy soil to viscous soil when the fine particle content was 35% or higher, and using field measurement data, SM was found to have a higher compression tendency than direct subsidence. Therefore, the mechanical characteristics of SM above Fc 35% are considered to be similar to that of viscous soil, which is different from the compression characteristics of the tendency of immediate subsidence to conventional sandy soil, so it is necessary to present the mechanical characteristics of SM through further research. The research findings highlight the importance of considering consolidation settlement in silty sand (SM) when evaluating soft soil conditions. These findings can aid in revising criteria for assessing weak ground conditions by providing essential engineering property data based on varying fines content in silty sand.
