  • Construction is one of the oldest fields of providing human living comfort. However, despite the continuous development not only in IT but also in other fields, productivity degradation due to low automation is still serious. In particular, the use of the 4th industrial revolution technologies in construction is just beginning. Blockchain, which is one of the 4th industrial revolution technologies, is a type of a distributed database that is used to replicate, share, and synchronize data spread across different geographical locations, such as multiple sites, countries, or organizations. In this paper, we introduce the block chain and analyze use cases according to seven themes in construction. As a result of the analysis, it is expected to increase the understanding of blockchain in construction and provide usefulness for the development of various services in the future.

  • We present a novel method to implement time-delayed propagation of radiation fields in cosmological radiative transfer simulations. Time-delayed propagation of radiation fields requires construction of retarded-time fields by tracking the location and lifetime of radiation sources along the corresponding light-cones. Cosmological radiative transfer simulations have, until now, ignored this "light-cone effect" or implemented ray-tracing methods that are computationally demanding. We show that radiative transfer calculation of the time-delayed fields can be easily achieved in numerical simulations when periodic boundary conditions are used, by calculating the time-discretized retarded-time Green's function using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method and convolving it with the source distribution. We also present a direct application of this method to the long-range radiation field of Lyman-Werner band photons, which is important in the high-redshift astrophysics with first stars.

  • Environmental problems caused by air pollution have been considered as serious critical issues in global perspectives. Controlling greenhouse gases has become one of the major environmental problems in construction fields as well. However, similar studies were mainly focused on suggestion of various methodologies for measuring CO2 emissions of construction equipment and calculating emissions. This study aims to analyze the correlation between the CO2 emissions and RPMs of equipment by the construction process based on row data collected from construction equipment actually operated in job sites. This study allows site personnels to determine the amount of emitted CO2 under particular construction equipment under specific conditions during the targeted construction operations. The research findings expect to be used as fundamental informations for establishing environment-friendly construction operation planning.

  • With the recent emergence of the 4th Industrial Revolution, the government is promoting the development of smart construction technology and institutional improvement through various policies to induce cutting-edge and technological innovation in the construction industry. As part of such smart construction technology, the application of BIM is being activated, and related regulations and guidelines are constantly being supplemented. In relation to BIM, there are many studies on the fields of library, design standards etc., but research on specific unit price utilization and unit price DB construction for calculating construction cost is insufficient. Therefore, in this study, a basic study was conducted on the linkage of the construction standard market unit price and the BIM library. Based on the basic research conducted in the future, we intend to establish specific standards for calculating BIM-based construction costs.

  • Along with the increase of the quantity of data in various industries, the construction industry has also developed various systems focusing on collecting data related to the construction performance such as productivity and costs achieved in construction job sites. Numerous researchers worldwide have been focusing on developing efficient methodologies to analyze such data. However, applications of such methodologies have shown serious limitations on practical applications due to lack of data and difficulty in finding appropriate analytic methodologies which were capable of implementing significant insights. With development of information technology, the new trend in analytic methodologies has been introduced and steeply developed with the new name of "big data analysis" in various fields in academia and industry. The new concept of big data can be applied for significant analysis on various formats of construction data such as structured, semi-structured, or non-structured formats. This study investigates preliminary application methods based on data collected from actual construction site. This preliminary investigation in this study expects to assess fundamental feasibility of big data analytic applications in construction.

  • 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.
