  • This paper presents a new method for indoor localization track workers in construction sites. While GPS and NTRIP are effective for outdoor positioning, they are less accurate when used indoors. To address this issue, the proposed method utilizes Aruco markers to measure the distance between workers and the markers. By collecting data values, the location of each worker can be determined in real-time with high accuracy. This approach has the potential to enhance work efficiency and safety at construction sites, as it provides more precise indoor positioning compared to conventional methods, leading to improved work efficiency.

  • This paper presents the performance characteristics of a centrifugal blower using the design parameters of an impeller blade. Two design variables, the bending length from the blade trailing edge and bending angles of an impeller blade, are introduced to analyze the effects on the blower performance. Three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with shear stress transport turbulence model are introduced to analyze the performance and internal flow of the blower. Relatively good agreement between experimental measurements and numerical simulation at the design flow condition is obtained. Throughout present study, it is known that pressure increases as the bending length from the trailing edge and bending angle increase while efficiency decreases. But efficiency is decreased. Detailed flow field inside the centrifugal blower is also analyzed and compared.

  • Due to increasing competition of construction companies, it is required to optimize the management of construction projects and "lean" concepts are rapidly spreaded in construction industry. Steel work accounts for a large proportion in construction work, and a variety of attempts to efficiently perform steel work has currently made. And since rebar (Engineer-to-Order) can be engineered through design once order is placed, it gives the great impact on construction, thus, entire management is required. The purpose of this study is to present the method to increase the efficiency of field processing method of steel work in terms of lean construction. Once we examine process of steel work and identify the flow, we would like to analyze which processes should be improved through value analysis approach and present the improvement plans. Also, this study examines cases of field processing and factory processing, and it identifies the waste factors in the procurement process. Finally, this study would like to present the result of analysis from the perspectives of value. The rebar delivery process is divided into several steps and the duration of every step is surveyed. Using duration data, VAT (Value added time) can be calculated for analyzing the efficiency of the process.

  • Construction post-evaluation (CPE) boosts the efficiency of public construction projects by assessing the performance results of public construction projects and using the results to pursue similar projects. This evaluation comprehensively analyzes and assesses the planning of construction work, the estimated and actual construction costs, the construction period, the demand for construction projects, and the effects of construction projects after the construction work to ensure efficiency. The data was used to prevent lax project execution and enhance the quality and efficiency of similar construction projects. On the other hand, CPE results information must be managed systematically to refer to and use CPE data in similar construction projects. Therefore, in this study, the CPE system was developed as a measure of the systematic and comprehensive management and use of the CPE results information of individual ordering agencies. Therefore, the groundwork was laid for the assurance of quality enhancement and efficient project execution in public construction projects. This system is expected to serve as a useful tool for comprehensively analyzing and assessing construction works.

  • The purpose of this study is to compare the degradation characteristics by subcritical water of RDX contaminated soil using batch mode and dynamic mode devices. First, upon application of RDX contaminated soil, RDX treatment efficiency was increased with increasing the temperature in both modes. At 150℃, the treatment efficiency was 99.9%. RDX degradation efficiency got higher with lower ratio of solid to liquid. However, the treatment efficiency in the dynamic mode tended to be decreased at a certain ratio of solid to liquid or lower. The treatment efficiency was increased when it took longer time for the reactions in both modes. As the results of analysis on concentration of treated water after subcritical water degradation, the RDX recovery rate of dynamic and batch modes at 150℃ was 10.5% and 1.5%, respectively. However, both modes showed very similar recovery rates at 175℃ or higher. RDX degradation products were analyzed in treated water after it was treated with subcritical water. According to the results, RDX degradation mechanism was mostly oxidation reaction and reduction reaction was partially involved. Therefore, it suggested that most of RDX in soil was degraded by oxidation of subcritical water upon extraction. According to this result, it was found that both batch and dynamic modes were very effectively applied in the treatment of explosive contaminated soil.

  • A series of experiments with a laboratory scale ultrasound treatment system for MTBE polluted groundwater was performed to increase the efficiency of MTBE degradation in groundwater. This study evaluated several factors to increase the efficiency of MTBE treatment for artificial and natural groundwater. The treated volume of groundwater, ultrasound frequency and power, and pollutant concentrations have been changed to evaluate its effects on the degradation efficiency of MTBE in batch and continuous flow reactor. For the specific experimental conditions on this paper, MTBE degradations are more efficient at 580 kHz than those at 1 MHz. The efficiency of MTBE degradation is proportional to the intensity of ultrasound power per unit volume of MTBE polluted groundwater. The concentration of ions in groundwater does not much affect the efficiency of MTBE degradation. The $1^{st}$ order degradation constant of MTBE for different power per unit volume at 580 kHz shows linear relationship at same concentration. The $1^{st}$ order degradation constant for 0.1 mM MTBE solution is higher than that for 1 mM MTBE solution. These experimental results could be helpful to seek optimal conditions for relatively large volume of polluted groundwater treatment.
