This paper presents an optimization approach to the configuration of train radio communication network for CBTC. The target specifications of CBTC communication systems are derived from technical requirements for CBTC. The proposed communication system has a ring-topology backbone communication network between stations and a radio network based on IEEE 802.11b wireless tan between trains and wayside devices. The proposed method has been applied to the standardization of the signalling system of urban transits.

To meet the urgent requirements of safety surveillance from civil engineering management authorities, this study proposes a refined and efficient approach to generate full-field high-resolution panorama of construction sites using camera-amounted UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). GPS (Global Position System) information extraction for pre-registration, feature points filtering for efficient registration and optimal seaming line seeking for fusion are performed in sequence to form the full-field panorama generation framework. Advantages of the proposed method are as follows. First, GPS information can sort images for pre-registration, avoiding inefficient repeated pairwise calculations and matching. Second, the feature points are filtered according to the characteristics of the construction site images to reduce the amount of calculation. The proposed framework is validated on a road construction site and results demonstrate that it can generate an accurate and high-quality full-site panorama for the safety supervision in a much efficient manner.

In large public construction projects with a certain size or larger that need to be carried out over a number of years, the Authority must secure a budget for construction project management activities by the construction manager. There is no problem if the project management budget secured by the issuing Authority and the project management budget executed by the issuing Authority are the same, but if not, various problems will arise. Therefore, in this study, the following measures were proposed to improve the system for efficient operation of construction project management: First, the construction project management terms and tasks specified in the statutes and the guidelines of government agencies should be unified and the standard for calculating consideration should be unified. Second, the total project cost management guideline should be specified so that the missing construction project manager can receive compensation for the technical proposal. Third, if the project cost is changed in the long-term continuous construction project, the construction project management expense should be adjusted accordingly. Fourth, if construction project management service is required from the Authority, the basis for consignment to a specialized institution should be specified in the total project cost management guideline.

Demands for systemized management of workers' safety systemically in construction sites have been increased. Industrial accidents at work places are often happened by risk factors of construction sites, and also it brings a lot of loss as the correct direction for workers about locations to work is not delivered properly. In this paper, a safety supervision system for construction sites is designed and implemented to figure out the location of workers accurately and to provide the information about the status of works and workers in real-time by personal device which is based on RFID. The system designed in this paper achieved high performance in its function and efficiency through a performance test, compared with existing analogous systems.

Since February 2017, site managers in small architectural projects are required by the revised building act. In order to address issues for site managers and to improve project efficiency, system improving methods are surveyed and proposed in this study. The key inspection items in the existing surveillance guidance manual were investigated, and the checklist for site managers for a small to medium sized construction site was analyzed. This study also tries to propose using web-based site management systems for improvement of the utilization of checklists. It is expected that these on-site management systems, along with BIM technology, will be able to monitor the small size building construction project in real time and effectively monitor the various problems occurring on-site.

This study (II) aims to draw up the future-oriented construction policy recommendations based on the outcomes as a result of a broad research and conducting questionnaire surveys on the arguable issues raised by construction engineers for roads and bridges in the course of previous study (I) implementation. As for the question of "The term 'Construction Management (CM)' which currently is defined in two (2) ways", 45% of respondents have answered that two (2) different types of CM should be unified into one (1) CM type as is the case in most advanced countries. About the question of "The ways to educate the CM professionals", many respondents have preferred to acquire CM professional certificate after receiving education for a certain period of time from private CM training institutions. As for the question of The revised draft that the ICEC grade of special engineers for design, construction and quality control areas shall be "more than 78 points from a more than 75 points by the original draft." 52% of respondents preferred to maintain the original draft. About the question of "The reason why the CM system has not been working well yet." 62% of respondents have answered that the staff members who are in charge of handling public project procurements are concerned about the fact that their roles (or activities) might be deprived as a result of CM adoption. In order for the CM system to be activated, based on the notion that the construction projects must be out soured, the reshuffle of the headquarter organization of Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transportation (MLIT) should be preceded.

도로 과적 차량은 일반 승용차보다 도로를 많이 훼손하여 도로, 교량의 사용 수명을 단축시키고, 유지보수 비용을 상승시키는 원인으로 분석되고 있다. 또한 과적 화물차량은 정상차량에 비해 도로 주행 흐름을 상대적으로 떨어뜨려, 도로 용량을 저하시키며, 소음과 진동의 발생, 배기가스 배출 등 여러 가지 문제를 발생시키는 원인이다. 특히, 도심지에서의 화물차 운행은 선진적인 단속체계가 더욱 필요하다. 현재의 단속시스템은 단속인력과 계측장비를 설치한 고정식의 과적 검문소를 운영하거나 이동식의 단속 검문을 병행하는 방식이다. 그러나 도심지의 경우, 교통정체, 고정식 검문소의 부지 확보 등 현실적으로 단속업무를 실시하기 어려운 환경이다. 본 논문에서는 현재 운영하는 고정식의 단속시스템을 자동 단속시스템으로 전환시키기 위한 기술적 구성 방안에 대해서 검토하였다.
