  • The comprehensive Topic of Total Quality Management (TQM) has been put forward since the 6th decade in industrial countries. The serious attention to it in developing countries goes back to recent years. Unfortunately serious attention is not paid to quality issues in building industry. Therefore, the construction of buildings is highly vulnerable against natural events while having low effective lifetime. Wide-range destruction of the residential buildings in the earthquake of Bam ( in IRAN ) is a clear proof for this claim. In this paper we tried to present the corresponding effects between quality issues and other aspects of a building project (such as costs) and proposed general solutions to improve quality indices in construction industry.

  • Importance of quality control is gradually increasing in the construction. And the reber work is very important things which influence in safety and durability of the building and accounts for about 9.8% of the total cost. Although reber work is important, quality control of the rebar work is still performed by attitude and experience of worker. Therefore, it is very important to quality achievement effort and quality standards recognition of rebar worker for quality sophistication in the construction. Some papers have dealt with the quality control in construction. But there was no study for actual conditions of quality standards recognition of rebar workers. The purpose of this study is to survey the actual conditions of quality standards recognition of rebar workers and to analyze difference of consciousness of administrator and worker. The result are : there id difference of consciousness of worker and administrator, workers work without knowing quality standard.

  • Modular construction, a prominent method in the evolving construction industry, necessitates robust quality control for successful implementation. This study investigates the potential of 3D scanning technology for enhancing quality control processes in modular building construction. Through an IPA analysis of major construction projects across factory production, transportation, and on-site stages, the study evaluates the current state of 3D scanning application in modular construction quality control. Results indicate a high demand for 3D scanning data across various quality control aspects. However, certain limitations in technology and practical application were identified. The findings of this research contribute to the advancement of 3D scanning technology in modular construction and inform future research on cutting-edge quality control strategies.

  • We this study investiged the level of perception such as construction quality-related systems according to the subject of construction work. The results of the recognition moisture survey showed a high response rate in the order of construction companies and supervisors. The result of the system's level of understanding was low at 3.6 points for the orderer and contractor. In addition, in recognition of the effectiveness of the quality management system, the contractor showed a somewhat negative perception than other targets.

  • Quality system of construction industry in Korea was a means to prevent unqualified construction work. But lately, it has became an essential requirement. So, lots of construction companies acquire ISO quality management system which provides fundamental management criteria. Now, most of the Korean construction companies have got IS0 quality management system. So, getting ISO quality management system doesn't mean advantage in public competition of construction bidding and that causes increase in the maintenance cost. That's why some construction companies abandon the 150 certificate. Therefore, the authors need to check the effect of ISO quality management system. For this, the authors provide the performance measurement index of ISO quality management system.

  • When the fire door is recently installed in the field, there are frequent cases where the fire door is manufactured with fire door having low quality or different structure compared to the performance that the fire door producer has confirmed in the performance test or the construction specification. Accordingly, on-site quality management and maintenance guideline for fire doors were presented. In this paper, we tried to explain the requirements for the construction of fire doors during the on-site quality management and maintenance guideline for fire doors presented in the study.

  • The success of a building design team is achieved as a result of a combination of multiple events/factors and interactions, and has a great impact on the quality of the building construction process. While most of previous studies have focused on quality of the construction process, the success of a design team has not been completely investigated. This paper presents the critical factors that impact the success of a building design team and describes an assessment tool to measure the successful performance of the design team with respect to the critical factors. The development of the assessment tool employs the concept of quality function deployment (QFD), a technique to measure the service quality of an organization.

  • In a reinforced concrete structure, coupler construction is easier to install than jointing or welding reinforcing bars, so it is possible to work by one person. When constructing a reinforcing bar coupler, the coupler construction method must be different for each member that receives a large tensile force or a member that receives a small tensile strength. Various coupler products are used in the global construction market, and the quality, performance, and cost of reinforcing bar joints vary from product to product. This study compares and analyzes the quality and cost of representative rebar couplers according to the requirements using the quality house of QFD-HOQ. The case study presents a quality and cost improvements strategy through QFD-HOQ analysis of rebar couplers.
