In recent years, pollution in residential spaces has been a significant area of concern. In particular, the indoor air quality (IAQ) of an apartment building before occupancy, which is related to the interior material, is a serious problem. Unlike previous research, which has mainly focused on pollution control after construction, this study has derived influencing factors and priority of management with a controlling schedule for IAQ. The objectives of this research are 1) control of schedule or improvement of management for IAQ, 2) distribution of responsibility to the parties concerned (factory, material company, construction company, design and engineering, occupancy). The results show the relative priority of the four major items in wall?based apartment buildings and in column?based apartment buildings. An analysis of the parties responsible for improvement based on the IAQ results shows more efforts to improve IAQ are needed in material factories and engineering/design companies.

Conservation of energy and fuel is the trend in smart building design. Radio Frequency Integrated Circuit (RFIC) technology is often used in temperature sensing and signal transmission to manage indoor temperature, but it is rarely applied to the shell of the building. Heat retention and poor insulation in building shells are the largest causes of high energy consumption by indoor air conditioning. Through combining RFIC technology with temperature sensors, this study will develop smart temperature information material that can be embedded in concrete. In addition to accurately evaluating the effectiveness of shell insulation material, the already-designed Building Physiology Information System can monitor long-term temperature changes, leading to smarter building health management.

Is not used by consistency transport at transport of freight nothing but is using Pallet only by pedestal when work palletized unit load or materials handling when keep simplicity receptacle which fill raw material or product in factory in our country. Therefore, pallet that is most important function of Pallet is not empled circulation to end consumer from manufacturing plant which is circulation process whole path being done and factory. It is real condition stopping only in extremely determinate part process use of warehouse back. Additionally, it is possible to figure out the flow of all the materials loaded on the RFID pallet; product, material, raw material immediately, so that epoch-making management is possible and it contributes to the reduction of logistics cost because there are little loss or outflow of pallet. The materials flow is getting speedy and inventory is decreasing in the logistics process, and also bad inventory and loss problems are prevented. As a result, not only logistics cost of company but also national logistics cost is decreased. Thus it contributes to the strength of national competitiveness.

Conventionally, in material management at a construction site, the type, size, and quantity of materials are identified by the eyes of the worker. Labor-intensive material management by manpower is slow, requires a lot of manpower, is prone to errors, and has limitations in that computerization of information on the identified types and quantities is additionally required. Therefore, a method that can quickly and accurately determine the type, size, and quantity of materials with a minimum number of workers is required to reduce labor costs at the construction site and improve work efficiency. In this study, we developed an automated convolution neural network(CNN) and computer vision technology-based rebar size and quantity estimation system that can quickly and accurately determine the type, size, and quantity of materials through images.

Military material-supply problem is one of the most important logistic problems under conscription system. Formally, two approaches were followed lowed to this problem. (1) Needs for material per soldier is estimated by past experience. The total demand for the material is estimated by multiplication of this coefficient and the number of soldiers given in the governmental programme. (2) The total demand for the material is estimated by the forcast based on the past statistics. The material supply system based on these estimates, however, relies too much on past statistics ;lack of flexibility is feared to adapt itself to changes in conscription programme, life-time of materials and so on. In this paper, the author has followed new approach : The conscription system itself is a linear input-output system, in which sequences of enlistment and dischargement are regarded as input and output. And the sequencial demands for the material are related by another linear transformation to the former sequences. In this regard z-transformation is applied to construct to transfer functions associated with this system. With these transfer functions, methods are established to determine the material demand corresponding to conscription programme and life-time distribution. Numerical methods by computers are also prepared.

The aim of online technology transfer market is not just to offer meeting place for technology seller and technology buyer, but to save cost and time in technology transfer by providing information on technology transfer. Providing timely information in technology transfer is important. As such integrated management system of the technology transfer information is required for efficient management of information on technology transfer. The existing online technology transfer sites provide simple technology information and can not check and update information from technology seller or buyer. This paper present an example of integrated management system of the technology transfer information which provides technology seller and buyer timely information.

High-rise construction sites, especially those situated in spatially constrained urban areas, have difficulties in timely delivery of materials. Modern techniques such as Just-in-time delivery, and use of information technology such as Project Management Information System (PMIS), are targeted to improve the efficiency of the logistics. Such IT-driven management techniques can be further benefited from state-of-the-art devices such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags and Ubiquitous Sensor Networks (USN), which has resulted in notable achievements in automated logistics management at the construction sites. Based on those achievements, this research develops USN hardware toolkits for construction lifts, which aims to be automated the vertical material delivery by sensing the material information and routing it automatically to the right place. The gathered information from the sensors can also be used for monitoring the overall status. The developed system will be tested in the actual high-rise construction sites to assess the system's feasibility. The proposed system is being implemented using Zigbee communication modules and RFID sensor networks which will communicate with the intelligent palette system (previously developed by the authors). To support the system, a lift-mountable intelligent toolkit is under development. Its feasibility test will be conducted by applying the implemented system to a test bed and then analyzing efficiency of the system and the toolkit. The collected test data will be provided as a basis of autonomous vertical transport equipment development. From this research, efficient management of the material lift is expected with increased accuracy, as well as better management of overall construction schedule benefited from the system. Further research will be expected to develop a smart construction lift, which will eliminate the need for human supervision, thus enabling a real 'autonomous' operation of the system.
