Chinese construction corporations take more market shares in the global construction market. The performance of Chinese construction corporations need to be reviewed from the capability and qualification system of the engineers including supervision engineer. The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of professional qualifications for supervision engineer in China. The research methodology is to investigate the qualification exam system, process and examination subjects for searching the fundamental body of knowledge about supervision engineer qualification. The results shows that the qualification system in supervision engineer are classified in detail for the body of knowledge and operated by the government. The qualification examination requires broad and defied knowledge structure together with practical experiences. The research results may lead further research subjects of Chinese construction related qualifications and education system in the ways of more specificity, expertise, and practicality. The mutual understanding of qualification system becomes major issue to build better collaboration in global market.

Professional Engineers for Building Electrical Facility is required to have both theoretical background and field experiences as an expert for managing a building electrical facility. In order to cultivate many Professional Engineers with both theoretical and practical basis, it is necessary to analyze the past examinations and develop an efficient cultivating plan. In this work, we analyzed the tendency of past and recent 4 year's examinations and the relation of examinations to the university curriculum. We suggest some methods that supplement the gap between curriculums of universities and qualification tests. Also, this paper introduces some advanced education programs of the reeducation agencies for these areas.

By prosperous condition of construction economy in the early 90s in Korea, the government needed a lot of the qualified professional engineers (PE) to manage the construction site. In order to meet the high demand of P.E., Government has established the admitted engineer systems(AES) in 1995 that give the authority of principal engineers to the admitted engineers who do not take the written examination but have equivalent working experience. Since 2000, professional $engineer^{\circ}{\phi}s$ shortage has been resolved. however, the opposite situation, which is serious over-supply of construction engineers has occurred. Thus, Government announced that would abolish the admitted engineer systems as recognized the existent admitted engineers(about 1,000,000 persons) from 2007. However, Professional Engineers Institution has strongly insisted that Government should not recognize existent admitted engineers. From this point of view, it is critical to make the supply-demand forecast systems as a derivative approach of System Dynamics also, that is useful in comparing the argument between Government and Professional Engineers Institution. This paper describes about principal $engineer^{\circ}{\phi}s$ supply change by admitted engineer system abrogation and suggests the idea to regulate the supply and demand with the improvement of the regal system.

1. Purposes and importances of the study. In gaining heating resources by combustion of briquette, which is the necessaries of every day's life, victims occur from poisonous affection of combustion gas (carbon mono-oxide) in every year and this gas attributable to increase death rate proportion to the high demand of briquette usage. It arise great problem ill point of national sanitation. Therefore, the study has a big aim to accomplish depressing CO gas or stimulating comlete combustion by both the methods of physical improvement of present combustion devices and chemical improvement by using V$_2$O$\sub$5/ catalyst to depress CO gas or fasten complete combustion Progress. Sucessful result of this study will not only to decrease the death rate but also to contribute fearless handling of briquette combustion so as to perform improving public Welfare. 2. Contents and scope of study. A. comparison of present and improved fuel hole device. B. Examination of effectness of improved elements. C. Effectness of miffed usage of catalyst. D. Comparison of Catalyst effectness. E. Examination of effectness of black slate containing V$_2$O$\sub$5/. 3. Results and recommendations of the study A. Absolute necessity of supplying secondary air by improved combustion device. B. Oxide Vanadium (V$_2$O$\sub$5/) has the greatest effectness to eliminate CO gas. C. Most effective catalyst of V$_2$O$\sub$5/ containing slate comes from "Samgoe" coal mine. D. By plastering catalyst on the cover plate of fire hole, it stimulate chemical reaction of re-combustion and preserving heat. E. Recommend to continute further precise study to practice with low-cost and handy devices to be applied the study results.

The rising number of accidents during building demolition work has significantly heightened interest in this field. This study undertakes a comprehensive analysis of the essential capabilities required for building demolition experts, drawing on both domestic and international examples. This includes an examination of training courses for building demolition inspectors and the competencies mandated for structural demolition roles as per Korea's National Competency Standards(NCS). Furthermore, the study reviews the qualification tests and training programs for building demolition professionals in the United States, Japan, and England. The research concludes that the expertise needed for demolition construction professionals should be categorized into seven key domains: legal, structural, safety, planning, operational, constructional, and environmental aspects. These competencies are further divided across three professional tiers: technician, engineer, and manager.

In order to calculate the quality management cost of construction work, the process must conform to relevant laws and regulations. In details, the cost of the various items such as quality test fee and quality control activity cost are required to be calculated. Regarding the quality management costs, the labor cost is applied to the quality examination fee and the calculation unit quantity in the construction quality management duties. The application of the unit price of the labor cost stipulates that Construction Association of Korea and Korea Engineering & Consulting Association apply the unit price which is surveyed and published. However, in the related laws and regulations, the standard of the quality manager and quality tester is not clear. This accounts for the confusion in the cost of construction management and the cost of labor. In the current law, the allocation standard of quality control personnel is specified according to the size of the construction, but the standard of placement of quality testers is not specified. At the construction site, there is no assignment criteria manpower for quality testers except quality managers, or very little work is being done. The quality control personnel conducts the quality test work to be carried out by the quality tester, and this carrying out heavy work. Therefore, it is difficult to maintain quality control activities. In this study, the labor cost of quality management expenses and the allocation criteria of quality managers and quality testers are established and presented for the purpose of securing the quality of the construction work and preventing the construction work. It is stipulated that the standards of the relevant laws and regulations, which are not clear, should be classified into quality control personnel and quality testers according to the size of the construction. Based on the unit price of Korea Engineering & Consulting Association, the personnel expenses of quality managers and quality testers are proposed to apply the unit price of engineer (professional engineer, specialist, advanced, intermediate, beginner) and skilled technicians (advanced, intermediate, beginner).
