As Korea's economy is entering a period of gradual growth, rate of growth on the construction market is becoming slow like that in developed countries. Remodeling construction market will be gradually expanded due to change in the social environment and diversification of individual demand. This study aims to promote the status of building equipment field with corresponding strategies based on the current situation that the importance of building equipment field is emphasized. Although it is desirable that building equipment construction companies lead remodeling construction, the building equipment part of general construction companies take the important role may be a advisable way, because the technology of building equipment construction companies is a little insufficient. Though building equipment field has become more important, the number of credits and professor of the field is still small than other fields of architectural engineering. More practical curriculums are necessary to meet the expectation of companies. Mechanical part of building equipment construction does not have independent law otherwise the other parts of building equipment construction. Establishing the independent law is urgent to promote the remodeling construction technology.

Recently, defect management have been considered as one of the major issues for more large-sized and complicated in domestic construction industry. However, the defect management have not been performed systematically because of special manpower, excessive amount of documents, 2D based inspection work, unclear traditional checklists, complicated work process and difficulty in communicating construction information. Therefore, the construction field manager could not performed the quality inspection and defect management work on time as well as the reliability of recorded quality and defect factors was decreased. The primary objective of this study is develop a Construction Defect Management Application CDMA) using a mobile (smartphone). The application can be sharing a huge information and communication technology based on RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification), BIM (Building Information Modeling) which enables field mangers to efficiently gather the information of defection in construction on-site.

Recently, high-strength concrete used for shortening the construction time of high-rise building construction, Concrete pumping technology is emerging as the core technology of high-rise buildings. In this paper, we have started to study the use of electromagnetic field as a method to increase the efficiency of the lubricating layer between the inside of the pipe and concrete, which has been established as the most important factor determining the pumping performance. The pumping performance improvement effect of concrete strength was verified and basic research was carried out to utilize it as a method to increase the efficiency of pumping in field application. In the related work, the effect of the electromagnetic field was verified by conducting a mock-up performance evaluation (horizontal 300 m) of the pumping force by the concrete strength.

The collaboration with members are very important things to manage the field organization in the building construction project. These collaborations are related with the communication in the organization, so the field organization ability could be advanced by improving the communication level. However, the research about communication in building construction field organizations has rarely studied. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the organizational factors to influence the communications in building construction field organizations. In this study, the leadership style of head managers and organizational cultural characteristics is determined the factors to influence the communication level by literature reviewing. The results of this study showed that the communication level is good when head managers in building construction site had an idealized influence style leadership and individual consideration style leadership. In addition, the good communicated field organizations had the higher characteristics of a consensus culture and development culture. This study is expected to help to improve the performance of the building construction field organizations.

The communication issue in the building construction site organization effects on the job stress of the field mangers, because the field managers are working with various members in the construction site organization. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of opponents' communication styles on job stress of the building construction field managers. As a result of this study, it was found that the job stress felt by the building construction field managers was differed according to the opponents' communication styles. In special, when the communication style of the opponents of construction field managers was an emotive style or a director style, job stress was higher. However it was a supportive style or a reflective style, job stress was lower. The results of this study are expected to help to build the site organizational management system to improve the performance of construction work in the building construction projects.

Green building technology has the potential a competitiveness. Reflecting this situation, the renewable energy market is growing rapidly. And, this field became value-added field in construction industry. In this study perform to prioritize the value improvements of green building technologies. To do this, first, we will extract potential development field through literature and case studies. Next, we will built a hierarchy structure based on the economic efficiency, technical skill, and policy. Third, we decide to prioritize between the items by performing AHP analysis.

Tall Buildings have been popular in recent years. Tall buildings require special consideration to design and construction due to their structural features. Column shortening is one of the important technologies to be considered in. The long-term deformations of concrete cause vertical shortening on cores and columns, trigger deformations on cladding, partitions and finishes, and damage their serviceability. This also affects structural stability by inducing unexpected stress to the structural members such as outrigger. The main objective of this paper is to re-evaluate column shortening according to revised field information and to compare the analysis results with the actual field measurement. Mok-Dong Hyperion, a 69-story apartment building which is currently under construction, was chosen for the case study.

This study was conducted a survey for suggesting direction of improvement of on­site inspections in Korean construction industry. The survey is limited perspective of owners, contractors and construction managers (including supervisors) about existing 'construction field inspection manual' with field inspections (eg. central inspection, central quality safety unit inspection etc.): focusing on stakeholder's perception and actual state of inspections.

Top-down construction is a useful method of utilizing the working space, economic benefits and shorten the construction period. Precision construction of the elevator core is very important for safety of the top-down structure. In this study, the layout system for the field-BIM(Building Information Modeling) was used to precisely construct the elevator core in the basement and the ground. Through the layout system, it was possible to process the construction status, review the design results and construction errors, and confirm whether there is or not within the construction error range for elevator installation.

The success of a construction project hinges on the effective and efficient management of human resources. The stress of human resources is directly related with work performance, and as such, should be managed to improve work performance. This study examined the correlation between job stress and job satisfaction among building construction project managers. A questionnaire to measure work performance was created by referring to the Korean Occupational Stress Questionnaire Short Form developed by the Korean Occupational Safety & Health Agency, as well as a previous study. The mean job satisfaction score of field managers was 3.6, which suggests that they are generally satisfied in their current job environment. A Pearson's correlation analysis showed that the field managers that were satisfied with their job had less job stress. These results could be used for the effective management of construction site managers and to improve their job performance in the field.
