Delay on State-Funded Construction Projects (SFCPs) in Dong Thap - a province in Mekong Delta of Vietnam, as many provinces of Vietnam, have caused budget overrun through many recent years. The budget-overrun situations, in turn, have deepened the delay. Identifying critical factors affecting delay SFCPs plays a key role to mitigate negative impact of delay. 134/160 questionnaires were collected from personals working for project owners, consultants, supervisors and contractors in Dong Thap Province. Convenient sampling method was used. EFA was resulted in critical 04 factors with 20 variables caused delay in SFCPs, including: "Project technic, contractor's financial capacity and adjustment role of the government", "Regulation and Policy", "Mutual benefit support and concern between the government and residents", and "Disadvantage of construction site and weather season". Reliable measures to reduce delay on SFCPs are discussed to establish legal corridors to strictly controlling the process, consider mutual benefit between the government and its residents, and evaluating construction conditions. Those measures are considered could be applied in not only Dong Thap province, but most provinces of Vietnam as well.

The major countries including Korea extend the national investment on R&D and implement the business performance diffusion policy as the knowledge based competition age arrives recently. The necessity for risk management and systematic management system for R&D achievement have been appeared to prevent the failure as the R&D scale becomes larger as it was said. For this matter, the organization such as NASA and DoD in USA defines the Technology Readiness Level (TRL) as a quantitative accomplishment management index and utilize the Technology Readiness Assessment (TRA) system as a criterion. Such tool is evaluated as very effective in the R&D project purposed the practicalization. It is expected that the disadvantage of evaluation system which is oriented to the academic accomplishment in its contents of current research and to contribute greatly to the practicalization of outcomes when such technology readiness level concept is applied to Korean national construction and transportation R&D project. Accordingly, this study analyzed the concept of TRL·TRA, the characteristics and current evaluation management system of Korean national construction and transportation R&D project and suggested the construction and transportation R&D project TRL·TRA performance model to accomplish the practicalization purpose.

Post-evaluation system reflects the results of performing a public construction project in the future similar public construction projects to be utilized in the planning. However, the current system simply compares the expected values, such as demand, B/C ratio, cost of construction, construction period, with the actual values after the completion of construction. In addition, most public owner does not actively conduct the post-construction evaluation tasks, so that the evaluation results has not been returned to early stage of a construction project. In this study, status of the post-construction evaluation system is investigated by a survey of the public owner and the construction project evaluation system of the United States and Japan was analyzed. This paper presents the improvement scheme of utilization of the results of the post-construction evaluation system. Through improving the post-construction evaluation system, it is expected that public agencies would easily utilize the post-construction evaluation.

How the balanced national development policy will be propelled? We study for the vision of a construction of the three leading strategic business; Multifunctional Administrative city, Innovation city, Enterprise city. The balanced regional development of our counry promotes the development of the falling behind area and solves the inefficiency of over crowding from quantitative expansion of the Metropolitan area.

In this paper is described "the water resources policy, a new paradigm of water resources control. the characteristic of rainfall in Korea and the compatibility of a new water routes opening in natural river". Also the construction of the Korean grand waterway in the view of disaster prevention, flood control, irrigation and environment-friendly transportation is needed eventually. And I detail a routes of Korean grand waterway, using of a flood gate, supply of irrigation water. cruse duration, activating under developed region and economic efficiency.

The government is promoting the reorganization of the construction indusrty under the theme of reorganizing the production system. However, it has been pointed out that this is contrary to the increasingly specialized and technical skills of the landscaping field. Therefore, it is urgent to respond to the construction industry integration policy and improve an appropriate work system and the content of the landscape field. Therefore, this study investigated the intention of the industry to reorganize the production system and the production structure of the landscape field, so that it can be used as a reference for future changes. As a result of the survey, 1) the perception of the reorganization policy is a highly requesting step-by-step promotion that reflects the industry's will, 2) the system is divided into generalization and specialization and is highly opposed to integration, 3) appropriate design and construction costs are the most important directions for improving landscape construction projects, and 4) reestablishing the relationship with related civil engineering works is important for improving detailed construction types. Overall, it was pointed out that the current specialized landscape construction does not sufficiently reflect the changing landscape business and is only appropriate for subcontractors in other industries. Therefore, it is necessary to promote policies that reflect this. In the long run, it is urgent to establish the status of landscape construction as an independent object, and it is necessary to supplement the legal system and change the industry accordingly.

As a green construction is a world-wide hot issue, Korean government is also putting forth a multilateral effort into reducing energy usage with setting aggressive goal under green growth policy. It is essential to analyse cost raised from designing and building green construction and benefit derived from the built facility for the sustainable green construction. However, compared to advanced countries in terms of green construction, there is lack of data and a systematic way for data collection and analysis in Korea. Without analyzing the cost-benefit of green construction, investors will hesitate to put his/her money into green construction and we can not expect its growth in construction industry. In this paper, cost of green construction was defined and categorized. Through case studies and various reports on cost-benefit analysis in advanced green construction countries, problems in terms of data collection and analysis in domestic green construction sector and improvement ways were suggested. The results of this study will contribute in classification of cost and benefit of green construction, data collection in systematic way, and increasing the feasibility of green construction via appropriate analysis on cost-benefit of green construction.

The need for off-site construction has increased in the construction industry in Korea in recent years due to the enforcement of the 52-hour workweek, the increasing age of workers on construction sites, the deepening dependence on overseas workers, and the stagnation of productivity in the construction industry. Thus, studies on OSC started in April 2020. In addition, as a national policy study advocating the modular construction method, which is one of the OSC methods, was completed in the first half of 2019. 70 housing units in two complexes that satisfied the Housing Act requirements have been supplied to citizens. However, although modular construction methods have been recognized as a dramatic construction method that achieves shortened construction schedules and solves the issues of cost reduction and the shortage of technical workers on sites by combining the advantages of the manufacturing industry and applying the economies of scale, realistically it has issues due to the rising cost of steel and a low pre-fabrication ratio. Moreover, the construction time of core parts, such as those built by pouring concrete, has become a factor that hinders the shortening of construction times. Thus, this study aims to propose a precast concrete(PC) modular construction system, which fuses three-dimensional infill as an interior finish material and a three-surface PC module that can acts as a structure for a construction method that is economical and can shorten construction time.
