As the construction industry gets specialized and complicated gradually, the number of participating organizations increased, and also the necessity of construction management(CM) is getting bigger because construction scale is becoming bigger. However, in spite of the increase in necessity, its activation through performance measurement and evaluation is very insufficient compared with advanced countries. Therefore, a checklist for CM by construction stage using AHP method in the current study is for efficient CM for successful completion of a project by dividing CM affairs by construction stage and checking performance degree by stage. If the CM checklist by construction stage, the final result of the study, is used by all the parties concerned such as construction managers, orders, designers, constructor, etc., it will be possibile to improve work efficiency of project management and produce a final outcome corresponding to the goals of a project.

Public institutions recognize the importance of cost management from the planning stage but they do not have an organized construction cost estimation and management system. Thus, at the stage of planning a new public construction project and estimating the cost, those in charge of budgeting estimate construction cost based on existing data and experiences, compare construction cost estimated after the basic design stage and the execution design stage with budgets, and then decide whether to continue the project or change the design according to the budgets. Therefore, we would develop the cost prediction model through regression analysis that can predict construction cost in Schematic Design Phase of the Public Multi-Family housing. Accordingly, if public institutions have a construction cost prediction model and management system that can estimate the optimum construction cost, they can make and execute budgets in a more efficient way than they do at present.

Construction materials usually constitute a major portion of the total cost in a building construction project. Materials management Is made problematic by materials shortages, delays in supply, price fluctuations, damage and wastage, and lack of storage space. Despite the potential benefit of ICT, convincing construction organisations to embrace its use and implementation has proved a difficult task. This study seeks to identify the implementation of ICT for materials management processes in construction projects. The findings from the case studies reveal that the implementation of ICT in the materials management processes for construction projects in Malaysia Is at early stage. Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet and handheld devices are found to be the common ICT tools adopted in the materials management processes. The main barrier is found to be the cost involvement at the initial stage or overall implementation of ICT in the materials management processes. Finally, this paper concludes the finding from interviews towards the ICT implementation of materials management in the construction projects.

With the 4th industrial revolution, many advanced information technologies are being applied to the area of construction engineering and project management. These applications are usually focusing on design, construction and operation stage and are producing many meaningful fruits. Even though these studies are very important for the development of the construction industry, this study insists that the other stage perspective such as construction business also should be emphasized. Because business phase has significant impacts on the success of a construction project as well as design, construction and operation phase. So, this study reviewed the intelligent-approach papers in planning and marketing, estimation and bid, contract and claim, and project financing fields. This study provides some insights such as values, difficulties, limitations and future directions of business intelligence application.

Carbon emission calculation guidelines provided by the Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transportation (MOLIT) and existing environmental load assessment studies have suggested a method for estimating based on the volume determined after the design development. Therefore they are not being helpful in the decision making of the environmental economics of road facilities in the planning stage in which specific information on construction output volume is lacking. Based on literature analysis of existing studies and consultation from a group of construction environmental professionals, 12 types of property information considered to be related to environmental load were selected from an inventory of information that will be available in the road planning stage. In addition, multiple regression analysis was performed based on the environmental load computed through the life cycle assessment (LCA) of 40 national highway project cases of Korea to deduce five impact factors of environmental load in the road facilities planning stage.

When managers predict exact construction cost at early stage and design phase, they can reduce construction cost in a more efficient way than to predict at construction stage. But present of public construction cost estimation and management almost after the construction documents design phase. Therefore, construction cost management in the early stage and schematic design phase to generally use approximate estimating is not correct. Accordingly, this study analyze problem of current cost estimating method and a concrete cost plans make using case information of actual cost to analyze in schematic design phase. Possible to check going on the suitable design, this study conducts the preliminary research for the development of cost estimating model.

Recently, the construction industry is increasingly in need of securing safety rights due to repeated serious accident. Accordingly, the government enacted the "Serious accident Punishment Act" to strengthen punishment for serious accident and expand the scope of punishment. However, safety managers in the construction industry are still vulnerable to safety accidents due to the heavy workload. The purpose of this study is to increase the efficiency of performance tasks and reduce serious accidents in the construction industry through analysis of performance tasks by stages of construction projects. The tasks derived through domestic research and domestic and foreign system analysis were classified step by step to analyze the correlation between difficulty and preventive effect, and inefficient tasks were discovered and improved. This can be used as basic data for identifying safety management tasks and preparing effective safety prevention measures, and it is expected to be a preventive measure against industrial accidents in the construction industry by using it for efficient work reorganization by safety managers.

Modal Shift from road to rail has been adapted in several countries as one of effective ways of reducing $CO_2$ emissions caused by transport. Generally, effect analysis of $CO_2$ reduction toward modal shift is calculated mainly from use stage and less consideration from other stages of life cycle, even though, in some case of modal shift needs that new line construction or new vehicle manufacturing. In this study, modal shift effect analysis is performed with considering construction, manufacturing vehicle and use stage. As a result we can get total $CO_2$ reduction effect using life cycle thinking and check the necessity of including other life cycle stage not only considering use stage. In conclusion, there is no $CO_2$ reduction effect if the reduction amount of $CO_2$ in use stage is not bigger than allocated annual amount of $CO_2$ in construction and manufacturing vehicle stage. According to this fact, analysing $CO_2$ reduction effect of Modal Shift should be considered not only the use stage.

The purpose of this study was to suggest ways to vitalize residential container architecture by identifying the building process of domestic residential container architecture and analyzing various problems appeared in the process and status of construction related to planning, design, and construction. Conclusion and suggestions of this study are as follows.; firstly, according to the current situation of domestic residential container architecture, the usage was planned mainly for accommodation. Secondly, For planning background of planning preparation stage, economic benefit for long-term residence individuality and diversity for long short term complex residence were the primary planning backgrounds. Thirdly, for floor planning of planning design stage, space planning for various purposes is necessary as creating inter-space, wide LDK space, and loft by using narrow and long container for the long-term residence. Lastly, For construction stage, ways to reduce personnel expenses are being required by reducing the term of works and simplifying the processing stage by running factory production and field construction in parallel. If reduction method of construction cost through energy saving and mass production system is considered in the future, it would be possible to expand the development to dormitory and community housing for university students who are pressured by housing cost.

In this study, the CO₂ emission and economic efficiency of high-rise apartment houses were evaluated, and were analyzed as a way to establish database on the evaluation of environment-friendliness of high-rise buildings. To that end, standard of buildings to be evaluated were proposed through analysis of the designing guideline for high-rise apartment houses proposed by Seoul city, and CO₂ emission of the subject buildings were evaluated based on the characteristics of materials admitted into each building and the amounts of energy consumed during lifecycle period. In addition, the initial costs in construction stage and annual costs in operation stage were set as analysis parameters, and along with calculation of direct cost by the consumption of construction materials and energy, the costs of CO₂ emission were evaluated and analyzed. As a result, the CO₂ emission and economic efficiencies of high-rise apartment houses by construction stage and operation stage could be analyzed quantitatively.
