Thus, this study is to suggest the way to develop the automated building construction system base on one performed in Japan in order to solve urgent problems of construction industry in Korea. Therefore interviews and questionnaires were performed based on experts who work for the automated building construction system field and analyzed through analytic hierarchy process. In doing so, it was the most important factor to develop a branch of automatic, mechanical or machine technologies for the automated building construction system. Especially the study indicated the importance of the technologies to substitute skilled labors such as a robot. This research could contribute to developing the automated building construction which is very unique and suitable for construction industry in Korea.

The planning process for roadway construction involves a large amount of information on design, construction methods, quantities, unit costs, production rates, and site conditions. Therefore, it is very important to acquire, manage, and process the necessary information efficiently to produce a rigorous construction plan. GIS (Geographic Information System) is a very effective tool for integrating and managing various types of information including spatial and non-spatial data required for roadway construction planning. This paper proposes a GIS-based system for improving roadway construction planning with its 'Interactive Space Scheduling' and 'Operation Level Planning' functions. The proposed system can assist construction planners in a unique way by integrating design and construction information and creating modularized design elements for space scheduling in real time. It is expected that the proposed system could improve the efficiency of roadway construction planning.

Modular Construction is regarded as having enhanced safety compared to traditional construction since most of modular manufacturing process in plants. Unlike general consideration for safety in modular construction, several industrial accident data and studies have pointed out that the accident rate of modular construction is not enough less as much as the practitioners have expected. It means that there is a clear need for improvement of safety management in modular construction. To enhance safety, it is necessary to identify the type and cause of accident through accident cases in order to prevent safety accident in advance. In this consideration, this study analyzed the types and causes of accidents through root cause analysis procedure with accident cases of U.S. OSHA. The classification was carried out in the order of process type, accident type and cause of accident. By following the classification criteria in this study, the causal factor was derived and the root cause map was created. Based on the analysis results, cross-analysis was conducted and it is shown that activity characteristics of modular construction are related to safety accidents. In addition, prevention methods to reduce safety accident by major activity are presented in terms of organizational, educational and technical aspects. This study contributes that the result can be used as the basic safety management in the manufacturing and construction process of modular construction.

Even though graphical simulation is very useful for construction planning, the application of graphical simulation has a limitation in dealing with objects without fixed form like earthmoving process. In this case, the mathematical/statistical simulation about the productivity of the whole processes based on the numerical data of working time, waiting time and working capacity of using equipment becomes effective. The mathematical/statistical simulation is not fully utilized in the field of construction due to the difficulties of creating process models and securing trust the numerically expressed results of simulation. In this research, the output of discrete-event simulation programs which are the most common mathematical/statistical simulation tool for construction processes were analyzed for the purpose of earthmoving process visualization. The purpose of this research is to develop a graphical simulation system that can help the construction planner select most suitable equipment and construction methods through the visualize the numerical simulation results of the working time, the queuing time as well as the amount resources etc.

In this study, we presented a teaching-learning method that can apply process-focused assessment for mathematical creativity of problem solving process of the gifted student, By necessity of appropriate teaching-learning program development to the level and ability of students who belong to high school gifted classes and courses evaluation for students who participated in education programs for the gifted. In the construction implementation process of students utilizing a kind of teaching-learning software, GeoGebra. We analyzed process of a variety of creative constructing figures using interfaces of GeoGebra and algebraic calculation. Utilizing 'Construction Protocol' and 'Navigation Bar' of GeoGebra, We identified computer languages, construction order, run times used in construction process of individual student and found mathematical creativity of students in the process. Comparing this result with prerequisite learning degree of individual student, We verified that this teaching-learning method can apply at the high school gifted classes as well as institutes for the gifted education in the city office.

"The Act on Ubiquitous City Construction and etc." stipulates the regulations on the planning, construction and management of the u-City. As its national-level law system is about to take its effects, future new city developments are expected to have its legal basis to be built to meet u-City requirements. Also, it is anticipated that such needs would require much more planning techniques and strategies. In reaction to those upcoming needs, this study is to search for new IT infrastructure construction process of the u-City in reality. It is also to supply with the each step framework to execute the u-City projects in more structuralize and systemize manner. Therefore, with the u-City IT infra construction guide line v1.0, purpose of the establishment of comprehensive IT infrastructure construction process.

Since 1980, rapid social and economic development due to increased plant construction has led to a plant dormitory in a short period. In recent years, by the advent of the durability of dormitory remodeling is a critical need. However, user requirements due to the lack of owner's budget do not reflected. As a result, users have complained about the scope of construction, and construction stakeholder in accordance with the budget efficiency of the complaints have decreased. In this study the remodeling requirements in the planning stages is proposed for the remodeling process. In addition work type and element can select a range of construction worksheet are proposal.

The Development of Cost Management is embossed efficiently to use the budget for the construction industry. The government is exploring every efforts and polices to control increasing the budget for the construction industry. However, despite of the government's efforts, researches are insufficient for a cost management of development. Also, the changed cost of construction by frequent plan change is caused of decline in quality etc during an accomplishing project. Therefore, in this study, analyzed about principal official phase of design phase to solve the problem. In order to define clearly the target cost concepts in the planning phase apply to the DTC(Design To Cost) concept and technique at the development of cost management process which will be able to manage the enterprise expense. It's process is expected with the fact that will be the possibility efficiently of fixing target cost in the planning phase by the construction client and designer.
