Recently, large residental buildings including high-rise apartment and a multi-business and commercial-residential building are appearing in the form of Korean construction work. According to this large-size trend a tenn and cost of construction works was largely increased. Therefore, studies of techniques construction management for successful project are lively being progressed. This study introduced Just-In-Time form and Lean Construction concept in order to establish management system of a house construction work taking up much portion on aspects of work scale and materials transportation in finishing works of high-rise residental building architecture. The process of house construction works will be analyzed with these two principles for productivity improvement and then the improvement plan will be suggested. This analysis and proposal can induce the flow of finishing works smoothly and contribute to success of project through saving of a tenn and cost of construction works.

In a construction project, process planning is an important factor in determining the success or failure of a project. In particular, it is necessary to systematically establish a process plan in the early stage because the finishing work of an apartment house involves more interference than the foundation work or the frame work. First, in this study the problems of Tact process management were identified, Based on the data from the case project, conventional Tact process management and compositive Tact process management were compared and analyzed. Second, cost analysis was performed on applicable plastering work to suggest the necessity and direction of compositive Tact process management. Third, the appropriateness of manpower according to the number of construction households is analyzed through cost analysis. Through this, the validity and effectiveness of compositive Tact process management were verified based on the results derived from this study.

There are insufficient models that find problems and solutions for accident prevention through risk assessment and suggest safe work process and work instruction from foundation works to finish work for accident decrease. This paper presents a quantitative risk assessment model by analysis of risk factors in each process such as appurtenant works, temporary works, structural works, equipment work, finishing work and etc based on accident examples and investigation on actual condition in plants construction work. In addition, the safety management system was developed to perform risk assessment of plants construction and use it for effective safety training for labor.

In recent years, the proportion of medium and small-sized apartments within the housing market has seen a noticeable increase, alongside a corresponding rise in disputes related to construction defects. Such disputes are most prevalent in the finishing works phase of construction, which not only are frequent in occurrence but also impose significant repair costs. Furthermore, there is a noticeable scarcity of research focused on the quality management of finishing work defects prior to the completion of construction. Addressing this issue necessitates a methodology capable of preemptively identifying defects by analyzing their frequency and associated costs across various defect types. Consequently, the aim of this study is to propose a risk assessment methodology by conducting an analysis of defect cases across 3,299 apartment units, considering aspects such as frequency and severity. The outcomes of this research endeavor are expected to offer practical management strategies to enhance the quality of apartment finishing works and serve as an academic foundation for the enhancement of construction management systems pertaining to apartment finishing works.

Unnecessary transportation of resources are one of the major causes that adversely affect construction site work productivity. Therefore, layout related studies have been conducted with efforts to develop management technologies and techniques to minimize the resource transportation made at site-level. However, although the necessity for floor-level layout planning studies has been increasing as buildings have become larger and floors have become more complicated, studies to optimize the transportation of materials inside buildings are currently not being actively conducted. Therefore, in this study, a model was developed using genetic algorithms(GA) that will enable the optimization of the locations of finishing materials on the work-floor. With the established model, the arrangement of diverse materials on complicated floors can be planned and the optimized material layout planning derived from the model can minimize the total material transportation time spent by laborers during their working day. In addition, to calculate travel distances between work sites and materials realistically, the concept of actual travel distances was applied. To identify the applicability of the developed model and compare it with existing methodologies and analyze it, the model was applied to actual high-rise residential complexes.

In this study, a new type of Durometer was invented by modifying the currently used Durometer with the hemisphere shaped needle to columnar shaped needle. The aim of the study is, hence, to provide the feasibility of the advanced Durometer for assessing setting time of the concrete. Generally, the finishing of concrete surface should be conducted to secure the smooth surface, improve the permeability, and prevent the plastic shrinkage cracking. Although this surface finishing work should be conducted during the plastic phase between initial and final setting, currently in practical situations, the timing of starting the finishing work was determined by the sense of the worker. To improve this situation, Kato Junji suggested to use the hemisphere and needle shaped Durometers to determine the initial and final setting time, respectively. However, in this case, there are difficulties of using two different Durometers and of occurring failure of the Durometer due to the intruded cement paste. To prove the feasibility of new typed Durometer, setting time and surface hardness were evaluated by applying for the concrete with various replacing ratios of fly-ash and coal gasification slag as an aggregate.

Exterior Insulation and Finishing System(EIFS) is recognized as a promising alternative for energy reduction as energy reduction ratio of apartment is to be increased from 40% to 60% in 2017. However, EIFS is not actively applied to apartment because additional construction costs and duration are required for the current existing construction method of EIFS. Therefore, this study proposes a conceptual framework for concurrent construction method of EIFS which can reduce construction costs and duration by working sequentially from frame work to exterior insulation finishing work, and then verify the method's feasibility by analyzing a case study. It has been proven from the analysis that concurrent construction method of EIFS reduces 6.7% of construction duration and 13% of construction costs compared with the conventional exiting method. The proposed method is expected to contribute to invigorated application of EIFS to apartment.
