The construction environment has the trend of oversizing and professionalizing, the increase of the construction period, and the risk factors and the uncertain factors which are important in the construction bid. The misunderstanding and the lack of knowledge of the subcontractor result in the decrease of the profit or the deficit. In conclusion, these are supposed to give the financial burden to the subcontractor. So, it is very important to predict the construction preparation cost calculation by the risk factors in the bidding stage and to calculate the bid unit cost considering the target profit of the subcontractor in the process of the mutual agreement and performance of the contract. In these points of view, this study analyzes how the importance of the risks influencing the bidding cost calculation affect the construction cost, and this analysis can be used as the basic data to establish the suitable bid strategy of the subcontractor.

According to the Korean Statistical Information Service, the number of fatal occupational accidents per 100,000 workers is the highest in Korea, among all the OECD countries. The safety of construction workers is managed by the construction technology promotion act (CTPA) and the occupational safety and health act (OHSA). A review of the current safety management laws is required to improve them for the construction industry, where the numbers of accidents and deaths are constantly increasing. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to identify the problems in unclear business areas through comparison and analysis of the CTPA and OHSA guidelines and establish effective site-dependent construction safety management plans. The overlapping safety and health management terms and tasks of organizations were derived along with identifying the overlapping items of the safety management and hazard and risk prevention plans. Based on these results, several improvements for the design stage, safety cost, and safety education have been suggested in this paper. In addition, an improved model based on the integration and an optimized compromise between these two laws for safety management in areas where many accidents have occurred in recent years has been reported here.

The widened Seoul-Bridge is the first continuous 8-span prestressed concrete(PSC) girder bridge in domain. The construction sequence of the bridge consists of S steps in a large way. The measuring in construction stage includes the determination of the allowable fluctuation value of beam stress in each step and the measurement beam stress during prestessing. The measured tendon prestress force was compared with the design value. When it was compared with the analytic result, the difference between the measured stress and the analytic stress was below allowable error. The friction loss and the anchorage slip loss of the tendon prestress force was lower than the design loss value.

The construction of concrete track for the first time in Korea gives lots of meanings to civil engineering in various aspects. Settlement level needs to be kept minimal for the safety of the track. Concrete track has different structural characteristics comparing to conventional ballast track, so load distribution in concrete track is also different. Since it is the first time to build concrete track, there are very few experience and data available on the subject. Therefore it is important to evaluate how much load is transferred to the ground due to the running vehicle in concrete track and to determine the optimal thickness of layers. In this research, 9 individual earth pressure cells were installed at OOOk930 site in 2nd stage of Kyungbu high speed railway during under construction. The in-situ pressure data were measured at each layers during pump-car and locomotive were moving on the high speed railway surface.

The project participants make use of floats for their benefits. The owner may consume floats in an event of issuing change order(s) and may avoid the risk factors attributed by them; the contractor may reduce activities' costs by substituting the activity with alternative construction method and by leveling the resources, hence consuming floats. There are a lot of disputes and claims involved in the float ownership issue. The ownership of floats should be stipulated in the contract stage. To alleviate these disputes and claims, it is commendable to develop a computational method that quantifies the float value. This paper presents the method that computes the values of total floats which changes over the project life span. The system calculates CPM, compute the ratio of area of banana curve which is enclosed by earliest start curve and latest start-curve.

Effective cost management requires reliable cost estimates at every stage of project development. The primary purpose of this research is to develop systematic modeling procedures and an automatic computing program for infrastructure estimating in the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). The computing system toggles between project input information and segregated district unit prices for highway work item quantity estimates associated with earthwork and landscape, subgrade treatments and base, surface courses and pavement, structures, miscellaneous construction, and lighting, signing, markings and signals. This quantity-based approach was chosen because of the conventional approach lacking of quantity information until primary design is complete.
