When various construction types of architectural construction are proceeded in order, the reinforced concrete construction is the frame construction which takes up the most important proportion among the construction process. Thus, the analysis of the effectiveness and productivity of the reinforced concrete construction is necessarily needed for smooth performance of construction projects. However, the conventional studies are performing the analysis of the productivity of only part(mould and steel) of the reinforced concrete construction and they have limitation in that they do not propose quantitatively the overall productivity of reinforced concrete construction.

Because the construction type SFRB is completely different in comparison with that of RC apartment the construction and work process, which are currently used, have to be changed. The main purpose of study is to analyze the difficulties of this construction and to apply the technology for other construction area. In this study, it is investigated to the problems of construction for SFRB and the construction method of PC panel fabricated on SFRB in Yongin goosng. Later, it is estimated prefabricated method had an great effect on PC panel System as lower cost and shorter schedule in SFRB. The Precast concrete framed System has many merit than the reinforced concrete structures system at constructability, structural safety and quality, therefore, it will be widely applied at parking structure in the future.

In this thesis using FTA technique, the author proposes a new method of analysis of some accidents in construction work. Some efficient plans of safe facility investment are made out. For this study, I referred to 'The Death Accident in Construction Works', which have been published by Korea Industrial Safety Corporation from 1993 to 1999 for 6 years. I selected some of apartment constructions which have caused many deaths for the purpose of analysis in the study. I found that the concrete work using ferro-deck takes more deaths than the conventional construction. After finding this, I selected GANG FORM works using ferro-concrete which is the most widely used but causes many accidents. On the basis of the classification, I try to do some quantitative analyses by adding the death frequency and material factors. In order to draw up the most efficient investment plan, it is imperative that FT diagram be made out and that factors. In order to draw up the most efficient investment plan, it is imperative that FT diagram be made out and that minimal Cut Set be needed. It requires a great deal to labor and time to get Minimal Cut Set. The Minimal Cut Set which is formed of these process is the main factor to analyze disaster in the work. It is desirable that we add calculated percentage of accidents to these factors to these factors in value order, that is to say, from the high cost to low cost.

Apartment housings that adopt a bearing wall structure design, which account for a majority of the housing units available in Korea, are not free from structural constraints that limit the extension of their service life. The resulting need for reconstruction from the ground up requires a massive consumption of resources and energy, and triggers environmental pollution resulting from construction wastes. As a solution to such issues, the government enforces incentive schemes to promote a remodeling-friendly rahmen structure design. Green Frame, which is a novel concept of composite precast concrete structure to support rahmen structure apartment housing buildings, can address the constraints of bearing wall structure and conventional rahmen structure designs that limit the potential for remodeling projects, while reducing the term of construction. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the characteristics of Green Frame and its absolute term of construction, and compare the terms of frame work construction in apartment housing projects adopting different structural design approaches to illuminate their differences. In the end, Green Frame is found to be capable of reducing the term of construction in apartment housing projects. As the term of construction is a very critical element of a construction project, Green Frame will ultimately prove to be one of the key enablers to ensure the success of apartment housing construction projects.

Application of system form is very effective to continuous horizontal or vertical walls of the apartment housing. Though the system forms that are used in the construction field have the advantage of concrete quality improvement and increasing number of usages, there are some problems in reaching early planning scheduling goal due to schedule delay and low productivity. This study is initiated to solve the problem and suggest some improvements searching for reasons that diminish the productivity. A case study was done in apartment construction field where system form was used and the productivity is analyzed by work sampling. Finally, productivity improvements for assembly of the form, internal form and external form are suggested, respectively.

The research is to verify by experiments whether the steel truss structure is able to withstand the load of cement bricks of upper part of a door for the safe use of lightweight steel truss structure instead of concrete lintel which is to be installed at upper part of door frame in building cement bricks for apartment construction. The steel truss is designed in order not to disturb bricks-building and the shape of structure was verified by bending test. According to experiments result, camber was applied to steel structure that enabled construction work to be improved and was proved effective for the prevention of accidents by cement bricks-building load test.

Public construction companies have strictly followed a rule that they should not do the works using water such as concrete pouring for the structural frame for a certain period during the winter season. It is usually known that the designated non-working period during the winter causes increase of the project duration and the project cost escalation. The halted work also makes negative effects on national economy because it reduces worker's income. However, the situation would be a lot better if the work for the structural frame is allowed under some conditions. The structural framework done alone without being followed by finish works gives a lot of stresses on the finish works. In this sense, this study examines how the structural framework performed during the winter season affect on the critical path of the finish works. To accomplish the objective of this research, the subnet for the finish works as well as a master network are prepared along with critical paths for a virtual construction site. Using the prepared networks, simulations are carried out to see the effects described above. This study is expected to be used in estimating the construction duration of high-rise apartment housing when the site work for the structural frame should be performed during this period.

Gangform compared with conventional wood and steel form is systemized form which has a capability to install and dismantle form at a time without repeating to assembly and disassembly small members. Gangform compared with ACS has some problems such as 1) Tower Crane load increase, 2) increase in safety incidence during climbing Gangform, 3) decrease in detachment operation productivity, 4) stop work due to climate impacts, and 5) decrease in labor cost, productivity, quality. A conceptual design model of automated Gangform climbing system is suggested for apartment housing construction to show its technical/economic feasibility and workers' safety while increasing operation productivity and concrete quality.

Precast Concrete (PC) construction method can be the one that is suitable for long-life housing due to its merit in respect of maintenance and durability based on crack-free from mass production with indirect construction cost-saving-effect due to shortening construction period comparing to the conventional construction method, but it has the problem that causes the raise of direction construction costs. So, this study analyzed its economic feasibility of PC method whose maintenance and durability are excellent for underground parking lot of apartment house for accomplishing cost-saving long-life housing by applying the various structural system. In evaluation of unit module structural system, two-way PC system requires 10 to 28% more costs for frame work than RC rigid frames, and, one-way PC system 98~112%. Although it varies depending on the method, the costs are similar to RC rigid frame structure, provided a proper method is adopted. Also, Model 11, which was most economical in the evaluation, was applied to an real parking lot and about 2 to 6% of construction costs was reduced than RC rigid frames. This seems to be because, although PC system has a higher production cost, introduction of P.S (prestress) reduces member depth and, therefore, height, as well as the number of members per unit module.
