  • In 2008 the total estimated failure costs in the Netherlands was estimated to be 11.4% of the industry's turnover compared to 7.7% seven years earlier. Failure costs can be the consequence of rework as a result of failure to conform to the product requirements and specifications or due to inefficient processes and bad management practices. Many construction companies however are unaware of the exact nature of these costs, their root causes or how to control them. This paper describes work carried out in the Netherlands to identify the different types of failure costs in construction and their root causes. The research described builds on previous findings by another research institution and expands it to include information collected from project cases and a survey of a number of project managers in the construction industry. The paper describes the analysis of the results from cases and the survey to identify the root causes of failure costs. Research shows, for example, that many failure costs are related to the client taking late decisions and making changes to the project requirements.

  • This research is conducted on temporary street furniture, which is one of the significant factors that comprise the street landscape in modem cities. The primary purpose of this research is to present the guidance on direction of planning by examining the design and installation types of construction and screen fences usually established at construction sites for buildings, roads, parks and etc. The results are as follows: 1. The construction and screen fences at construction sites of urban areas used to be a mere tentative facility to prevent noise and safety accidents but have now incremented their roles to serve not only as a functional but also as an aesthetic element with a city view and harmonization with other elements taken into consideration. In particular, it is noticeable that, based on its unique feature of tentativeness, its role has developed to serve as street furniture that adds variability to the modem city. 2. There are two different types of screen fences: blackout type and transparent type. The transparent screen turns out to be used a lot at the construction site of building a skyscraper or differentiated building in downtown city area or in places where there are buildings of similar types and shapes located along the street in the vicinity of the construction site. 3. The actual cases of adopting the tentative construction and screen fences all at the same time as a single unit have been found in historically and culturally significant architectures with the screen design used to demonstrate the view after completion of construction or the characteristics of the architecture.

  • Many Korean construction companies have been performing a variety of overseas construction projects since the 1970s. It is unfortunate that in many cases they have had to suffer big losses caused by errors and defects in the design and construction of the projects. In the author's opinion, however, there were losses that could have been avoided if they had understood better the feature and content of the particular construction contract. Few lawyers and scholars in Korea have been interested in the research and study of international construction contracts. This is mainly because they do not have access to practical sources outside of Korea for them to research and study since the contracts undertaken have been dealt with by law firms in other jurisdictions to which the disputes apply. This article is aiming primarily at the introduction of the issues which the practitioners are likely to confront in the process of reviewing and performing the international construction contract. In some cases solutions are sought about these issues based upon the FIDIC standard terms and conditions, the actual experience of practice, and UNIDROIT Principles, etc. It is reasonable to say that all the issues related to the international construction contract cannot be covered in a short article like this. The author wishes this article could induce subsequent studies on international construction contracts for further research. It has to be noted that from time to time Korean construction practices have been compared to the international ones for better understanding. This article mostly includes cases where the Korean construction companies go overseas for their projects, while there are some cases where foreign developers and financial investors participated in domestic projects in which international construction contracts forms were adopted. A few precedent domestic writings about international construction contracts seems to lack emphasis on the points that there are several standard construction contract forms and that they are different. The differences are mainly in accordance with who bears the design responsibility, how the owner has to make progress payments to the contractor and who the funding source for the project is. This article tries to make it clear that there are significant differences between the standard contract forms, e.g. a simple construction form, a design-build form and an EPC/turnkey form of contract. Again, the author hopes that this article can arouse the interest in the international construction contracts from both academic and practical fields, so that many subsequent advanced articles can help our construction industry become much more competitive in the world through awareness of the methods of procurement and administration of the contracts.

  • Among all industries, the construction industry still remains a traditional one with low productivity due to its labor-intensive and field-dependent production system, its supplier-oriented industrial structure, and the disruption of the information flow between participants. In addition, the construction industry in South Korea has recently been required to transform itself according to social trends such as aging, the reduction of skilled workers, and the shortening of working hours, and the disaster and death rates in the industry, which are more than twice as high as those in other industries, are making it more necessary to solve chronic safety problems. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to grasp the actual condition of safety management on construction sites in South Korea and analyze cases of K-smart technology utilization for preventing safety accidents on construction sites. The study investigated and analyzed the following. First, construction sites in South Korea were analyzed by type of safety accident, by type of construction, and by construction contract amount. Second, the current status of accidents on small-sized construction sites with a high fatal accident rate and cases of safety accidents on construction sites were investigated. The results of the study are expected to contribute to the dissemination and spread of smart safety technology for not only identifying major factors in safety accidents that occur on construction sites but also preventing workers from suffering accidents.

  • 건설산업에서의 안전 수준 향상 노력에도 불구하고, 건설산업은 타 산업에 비해 높은 사망자수를 보이고 있다. 이러한 높은 사고율은 건설산업의 안전관리 측면에서 효과적인 대책이 필요함을 명확히 의미한다. 기존의 연구에서 주장하듯, 사고의 발생 가능성이 높은 공종이나 기인물을 파악하고 이에 적합한 안전대책을 세우는 것이 중요하다. 다수의 추락관련 건설재해가 작업발판 및 안전통로에서 발생한다는 점을 고려해보면, 안전관리 측면에서 가시설물을 중점적으로 다루어야 할 것이다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는, 작업발판 및 안전통로와 관련된 6개년 1663개의 사망사고를 공사규모, 공정률, 공종, 직종에 의해 분류하고, 각 사망재해가 발생한 사례들을 분석함으로써 보다 중점적으로 관리되어야할 요소를 추출하였다.

  • 노후화된 공동주택을 리모델링을 통하여 성능개선을 하고자 하는 사회적 움직임이 포착되고 있다. 이를 위해 리모델링의 공사비 분석, 구조 분석, 정치제도적 검토등이 진행되어 리모델링을 활성화방안이 제시되고 있다. 그러나 현재 공동주택 리모델링의 공사비 분석방법이 연구상으로 제시되고 있으나, 실무적 활용가능성에서 한계점이 존재하는 상황이다. 구체적으로, 실무적으로 활용되기 위해서는 현재 진행되었거나 진행 중인 사례에는 적용가능하지만 향후 발생할 사례 또한 공사비분석에 활용되기에 분석방법의 지속 가능성이 결여되어 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 공동주택 리모델링 공사비견적의 지속가능성을 위해 자동화된 견적방법을 제시하고자 한다. 공사비견적의 지속가능성을 위해서 Deep-Learning을 견적절차에 도입하였다. 구체적으로, 공동주택 리모델링에서 발생할 수 있는 설계요소,공종, 공사비 상승계수의 관계를 자동적으로 찾는 방안을 제시하였다. 추가적으로 Artificial Neural Network기반 견적의 태생적인 한계점인 불확실성 미반영을 보완하고자 Monte Carlo Simulation을 견적절차에 산입하였다. 사례가 누적될수록 더 높은 정확도를 제시하기 위하여 견적결과를 기존의 누적데이터와 비교를 하여 더 높은 정확도를 산출하는 방안 또한 제시되었다. 본 연구에서 제안한 자동화된 개산견적의 지속가능성을 검토하고자 13개 사례의 학습절차와 추가 2개 사례의 누적절차를 거쳤다. 결과적으로 추가된 2개 프로젝트의 특성이 반영된 새로운 공사비견적절차가 자동적으로 제시되었다. 본 연구에서는 15개의 사례를 활용하여 개산견적의 방안을 활용하였으나, 사례가 누적되어 반영될 경우 본 연구의 기대효과는 더욱 높아질 것으로 사료된다.

  • Turnkey project in construction which accounts for about $10\%$ of the total annual construction orders in the nation is expected to grow in size as an effort to strengthen international competitiveness and improve quality of construction work. However, problems of turnkey project in construction raise concern for many possible cases of possible claims. Based on the understanding that bidding guidelines which plays a critical role in turnkey project in construction actually contain some unequal clauses and causes for problems which undermine development of turnkey construction and further create possible cases of claims, the paper aims to identify and analyze the unequal clauses and problems contained in the guidelines in order to make suggestions for improvement. Among all the turnkey construction orders that has been placed since 2000 when domestic turnkey project in construction became relatively formulated, 13 constructions costing more than 50 billion won were selected for this study since their construction scale were large enough that the bidding guidelines for them were regarded as containing little difference among one another. In order to enhance construction technology and to prevent claims while trying to achieve the original purpose of Turnkey system, the parties involved in or schedule to take part in Turnkey project including ordering institution, Construction Company and Design Company should make an effort to have more reasonable bidding guidelines drawn up.

  • It is a problems in industrial accidents that the knowledge for industrial accidents is obtained by experience, not by experiment. This experiential knowledge is obtained by Investigating accident cases and utilizing those for safety education. Therefore, in this paper, the situation about the serious accident of construction is analyzed by occupation, a kind of construction, time group, season, type of accident, and accidental cause. And the mutual · relations of these factors are studied. The most frequent type of the serious accidents of construction Is the falling accident. It happenes most frequently at apartment construction among kinds of construction and to structural worker, finishing worker, normal worker in order among occupations. And it is found that the most critical causes of the falling accident are the imperfection of safety facilities and unwearing of protection equipments, so a number of accidents can be reduced by the expansion of safety facilities and wearing of protection equipments absolutely. The counterplan of prohibition of accidents and the direction of government policy are presented by a series of nalyses for accident cases.

  • The pattern cases for Korean traditional socks are named "beoseonbongip" which means a pouch to keep patterns for making "beoseon". "Beoseon" is Korean traditional socks. This study is to identify characteristics of the pattern cases and to develop cultural products based on the unique characteristics of the pattern cases. One hundred fifty one photos of "beosonbongip" were collected and quantitatively and qualitatively analyzed. Seventy percent of them were made between Joseon Dynasty and 1960s. As a result, most of the collected pattern cases are rectangular and square shapes, red color, and silk fabrics, and sizes of them are from 9cm to 15cm. A few pattern cases with different sizes and colors were also observed. Most pattern cases were made by fixing two among four triangle pieces which made by folding four tips of a rectangular or square cloth and then puting a not or a loop on the remaining triangle pieces in order to open and close the pattern cases. In a small number of the pattern cases, three of the four pieces were fixed and a button, a bead, a broach, or two nots or two loops were put on the other piece for opening and closing. Products such as apparels, bags, pouches, frames, and key holders were made using "beoseonbongip" form and construction method. This shows that "beoseonbongip" is a useful motive for creative product development.
