The exposed concrete has been widely used in building construction. Therefore, many researches are presented to secure a proper construction quality of exposed concrete. Low quality and management absence, however, still remained in construction fields. Thus, many studies have been conducted to improve the quality, but defects still occur in the exposed concrete finishing work. In this study, the causes of defects were analyzed by process in order to prevent the generation of defects and to enhance the need for integrated management to secure quality. In addition, a case study and AHP analysis have derived the importance of defects occurring in the exposed concrete finishing work. The study concluded that the occurrence of the exposed concrete finishing work needs to be managed throughout the process, not the management limited by one process, according to the causes of the existing defects, and integrated management is required to prevent defects and improve quality of exposed concrete finishing work.

This report is to do design management for constructability review of high quality exposed concrete, which is used increasingly in recent. To secure systematic management at design phase, we reviewed each definition and work at each design phase, we define high quality exposed concrete, a part of architectural concrete, as "an exposed concrete which has well ordered joint & is in pursuit of smooth surface." We reviewed requirements and influential factor to obtain High quality finishing surface and compared construction process of high quality exposed concrete with that of other finishing method. Management method at each design phase for constructability review to meet additional works and requirements is presented.
