Connecting with cost, schedule, and quality in a construction project, resource management is one of the essential management elements. However, the material requirement planning is built at the beginning stage of construction and needs various concerned factors, it is limited to build the resource management planning on enterprise level. The disconnected communication among managements makes impossible to control historical data. In the construction project control system, the core of management elements is to manage cost and schedule information, therefore material requirement planning should be established based on historical data about EVM which is intergating schedule and cost. In this study, a resource management system concerning material requirement planning and attribute of procurement is suggested by connecting the historical data of EVM and the material requirement planning.

Last Planner System (LPS) developed by Lean Construction Institute consists of four steps: Master Schedule, Phase Schedule, Lookahead Planning and Weekly Work Plan. This paper focuses on the process of measuring Percent of Plan Completed (PPC) at the Weekly Work Plan stage. PPC means the percentage of weekly assignments completed. According to the results of the researches that deal with PPC from many other countries, we can assure the benefits of using PPC. However, the concept of PPC is unfamiliar in Korea construction industry. This paper analyzes the cases in which PPC is applied in other countries and compares them with the production control system in Korean construction industry. The results of this research will provide the time management system for using PPC in Korea.

A key use of applying building information modeling (BIM) to the construction stage of a project is to help identify construction obstacles and to visualize construction status according to the progress of the construction schedule. When employing 4D simulation for this purpose, start and finish dates for each activity and a 3D model of the activity must be prepared. In this work, in order to simplify the configuration of a 4D model, minimum attribute information of the BIM model produced in the design stage was used to construct a system that generated activity information in the construction stage using a clustering algorithm. Its usefulness as actual schedule management information was then analyzed.

Recently, both nationally and internationally, various BIM guidelines have been developed. These guidelines present fundamental principles and standards for the application of BIM. However, practical BIM guidelines for the schedule management area in the construction phase are lacking, making it difficult to apply them effectively in practical work settings. In this study, performance-based delivery guidelines are presented for the key functionalities of 4D CAD systems, which are representative BIM tools used in the construction phase. To achieve this, a survey analysis was conducted to determine the prioritization of these functionalities. Based on the characteristics of the project, delivery guidelines were formulated to allow users to selectively utilize the guidelines at different levels. Furthermore, practical ways to utilize performance-based delivery guidelines for schedule management using 4D CAD were proposed, validating the usability of these guidelines. The research findings suggest that these guidelines for BIM functionality in schedule management can hold practical significance as the utilization of BIM in construction phases continues to increase.

Construction duration is very important as a factor which comprises three axises of construction management with quality and cost in construction project. In general project condition, construction duration is optimized while minimizing construction cost and securing required quality. However, in case of insufficient project time duration or delayed projects, project progress management is different from those of normal projects. These project areas need solutions to complete work within a given completion day. To time shortening the current duration of each typical floor of structural framework in apartment construction is investigated, and a basic time schedule planning for typical floor of structural framework in normal projects is planned. This study proposed 3 ways for time shortening of urgent project or insufficient construction duration project. Also, This study proposed detailed time shortening method and technical solution conditions while time is shortened.

The availability of PMT(Project Management Tool) in the market has been increasing rapidly in recent years and Significant advancements have been made for project managers to use for planning, monitoring, and control. Recently, studies applying the Reinforcement-Learning Based Construction Schedule Simulation algorithm for construction project process planning/management are increasing. When reinforcement learning is applied, the agent recognizes the current state and learns to select the action that maximizes the reward among selectable actions. However, if the action of global optimal points is not selected in simulation selection, the local optimal resource may receive continuous compensation (+), which may result in failure to reach the global optimal point. In addition, there is a limitation that the optimization time can be long as numerous iterations are required to reach the global optimal point. Therefore, this study presented a method to improve optimization performance by increasing the probability that a resource with high productivity and low unit cost is selected, preventing local optimization, and reducing the number of iterations required to reach the global optimal point. In the performance evaluation process, we demonstrated that this method leads to closer approximation to the optimal value with fewer iterations.

Lately, Building Information Modeling (BIM) emerges as the most promising technology, now is expected to bring a great deal of improvement of productivity in every aspect of the construction industry. One of the BIM based scheduling is to use BIM model as a base for applying to schedule analysis and simulation tools. This type of tools may incorporate a various types of information such as the building model, construction method information, resource information, productivity information, rules and constraints to optimize activity sequencing. This paper proposes a framework of BIM based simulating system which can be used to optimize construction processes, especially for the floor construction cycle. For the purpose, all of the necessary components of the system will be defined and represented, and next an algorithm will be introduced to demonstrate the principle of simulating operation. The benefits of this technique are basically two : to test and optimize construction methods in respect of the construction duration and to reduce the floor construction cycle.

In order to reduce the construction cost and period without degrading the quality, construction companies are making a lot of efforts to prefabricate and mechanize the construction process, and introducing and utilizing various techniques of construction time management in the process of construction. However, due to the various factors (such as weather conditions, labor factors, supply of equipment and materials, safety accident, etc) in the process of construction, construction projects are not frequently completed within the scheduled Period. This research is to examine the current status of construction time management and factors causing delay in construction with regard to the concrete work (such as form work, steel reinforcement, and concrete work) in building apartments.

Delay schedule coming about duration extension is happening essentially because public construction project consist of many sub contractor. The method which can calculate delay day is suggested by many studies in case of happing delay schedule, but It is difficult to apply to real construction project because there is no mention about the control of The law of contract according to delay schedule. The law of Contract which is cost of account has more uncertain problem than FIDIC condition of contract. This study suggests method which can make extension of duration procedure clear in case of happing the reason of design change related with activity duration during carrying on construction, and a submission process of the reason of duration extension and modify schedule making way about section which is basis of calculating contract amount clear.
