The public safety management guidelines were introduced in 2019 and continue to be dedicated to advancing comprehensive measures for public safety management, with a primary focus on prioritizing the safety and well-being of the public within governmental institutions. To achieve this goal, our previous study developed a establishment procedure of risk assessment-based safety inspection system for public institutions that order construction projects and applied it to highway construction projects to evaluate its effectiveness. To enhance the practicality of the establishment procedure, it is essential to collect and analyze feedback from stakeholders regarding its performance and suitability. This study conducted a survey involving 200 participants who had experience with the establishment procedure, and performed statistical analyses to evaluate its performance and applicability. The survey results indicated that the participants reported a high level of satisfaction (scoring 4 and above on a 5-point Likert scale) in several areas: specialization of safety inspection items for different types of work (with a satisfaction rate of 65%), the evaluation process for safety ratings (64.5%), and their willingness to recommend the procedure to other institutions (75.5%). In the factor analysis with Varimax rotation, two factors emerged: (1) a specialization factor related to safety inspection items, and (2) a grading factor associated with safety evaluation results. Regression analyses of these factors unveiled significant positive relationships with improvements in safety and health performance, including the prevention of fatal accidents, heightened safety responsibility, and raised safety inspection standards. The establishment procedure of safety inspection system developed in our previous study can play a crucial role in reducing accidents resulting in fatalities and injuries at construction sites, ultimately contributing to a safer working environment for all involved parties.

This paper presents the selection, examination, and user test (SEUT) procedure to determine the ideal color scheme for a 4D model. This systematic procedure can be performed iteratively to obtain the color scheme that would be most appropriate for construction purposes. To verify the proposed procedure, an example case with two iterations is presented. Ten color schemes were examined and 48 users tested during the two iterations, and the result shows that the SEUT procedure is an effective method for determining the ideal color scheme for 4D models.

The construction industry has maintained a strong level of development in China in recent years. And with the steady development of the national economy, the construction industry will continue its momentum of growth in the coming years, which indicates a great tendering market in China. To gain a comprehensive understanding of Chinese tender market, a research based on construction laws and tendering laws was carried out. This research focused on differences of the tender environment between China and Korea, such as construction company certificate, bidding procedure and so on.

In this study, we deals with the implementation of an optimal basis identification procedure for interior point methods. Our implementation is based on Megiddo’s strongly polynomial algorithm applied to Andersen and Ye’s approximate LP construction. Several techniques are explained such as the use of effective indicator for obtaining optimal partition when constructing the approximate LP, the efficient implementation of the problem reduction technique proposed by Andersen, the crashing procedure needed for fast dual phase of Megiddo’s algorithm and the construction of the stable initial basis. By experimental comparison, we show that our implementation is superior to the crossover scheme implementation.

When the fire door is recently installed in the field, there are frequent cases where the fire door is manufactured with fire door having low quality or different structure compared to the performance that the fire door producer has confirmed in the performance test or the construction specification. In order to improve the on-site quality management of the fire door, we comprehensively classify the quality management items of the fire door according to the management subject and the step by stage and set the field quality management procedure, the field quality management inspection item, regulations and standardized checklists were presented.

Various risk factors affect construction projects. Due to the uncertainties created by risk factors, actual activity durations frequently deviate from the estimated durations in either favorable or adverse direction. For this reason, evaluation of schedule uncertainty is required to make decisions accurately when managing construction projects. In this regard, this paper presents a new computer simulation model - the Repetitive Schedule Risk Analysis Model (RSRAM) - to evaluate unit-based repetitive building project schedules under uncertainty when activity durations and risk factors are correlated. The proposed model utilizes Monte Carlo Simulation and a Critical Path Method based repetitive scheduling procedure. This new procedure concurrently provides the utilization of resources without interruption and the maintenance of network logic through successive units. Furthermore, it enables assigning variable production rates to the activities from one unit to another and any kind of relationship type with or without lag time. Details of the model are described and an example application is presented. The findings show that the model produces realistic results regarding the extent of uncertainty inherent in the schedule.

Construction Management tends to create a formal procurement resulted from recent legislative procedures system in domestic construction industry. However, the fact that construction Manager(CMr) has been chosen, in practice, under a poor circumstance in selecting and discriminating specialty requires the more optimal procedures. Therefore, in this research, we analyze the existing shortcomings. the various procedures, influence factors, and the criteria to be considered in selecting and evaluating CMr. Also. this study suggests the improved method based on the facts above. To accomplish the construction project successfully, it is one of the advanced schemes to choose an adequate CMr needed to the project through the precision in the formation and application of the procedure as well as the suggested criterion in selecting CM.

This paper presents the case study of the CE by collaborative system and proposes a model of the CM group for the cable supported bridge. The cable supported bridges have a large project scale and need a high level of construction method. Therefore an advanced construction management system is required for successful completion of project. The construction management (CM) group which control design management, construction plan, subcontract, technical support and R&D is organized for the cable supported bridge project. The CM group established a collaborative system with construction site and drew an effective management of cost, process, quality, safety for each project. Furthermore, the CM group established the procedure of construction management based on the construction engineering (CE) items and performed the project management on the construction phase. Efficiency of cost reduction and site control is maximized by using a collaborative system.

Tools for these phases from chronometric test to verifying of the assumed model are indicated. Apart from the classic verification activities the method of artificial neural networks has been successfully applied. The paper presents the usage of these tools to model the process of assembly of structural corrugated steel plate structures.

A construction project with a total construction cost of over 10 billion KRW should be evaluated whether construction works are appropriately executed. The evaluation is carried out on quality management, process management, construction management, safety management, environmental management. The implementation period is within 60 days after completion of construction of the construction, from the time when the construction rate of the construction work has progressed by more than 90% to the construction cost. However, the participating construction engineers should prepare the evaluation within the period according to the evaluation criteria, but there are difficulties in preparation for the evaluation due to the reasons such as the change of engineers in charge and loss of data. Therefore, this study proposes the procedure of construction evaluation and adjusts timing of construction evaluation.
