Larger area will be constructed in a harbor land and container terminal which are constructed in reclaimed land using the dredged materials. Soil improvement work is to be carried out including constructibility, in which is monitoring devices, measuring frequency, installations etc. The ground water tables in the reclaimed area are affected by the several factors which are design reclamation level, consolidation settlement, remaining surcharge pressure and remaining excess pore water pressure. The plan wii be drawn up in which monitoring results for the ground water tables are capable to provide the reliable ground water table when designers and civil engineers construct the harbor structures considering constructibility.

In this research, we develop a systematic learning the materials on constructibility of cubic roots. We propose two sets of materials: one is based on concepts of field, vector space, minimal polynomial in abstract algebra, another based on properties of cubic roots in elementary algebra. We assess the validity, applicability, defects and merits of developed materials through prospective teachers, in-service teachers, and professionals. It could be expected that materials be used for advanced secondary students, mathematics majoring college students and mathematics teachers. Furthermore, we may expect the materials be useful for understanding and solving the (un)constructibility problems.

Construction automation and robotics are being introduced as an efficient alternative to overcome troubles caused by lack of skilled labors. To accomplish effective automated construction system, design for automation(DFA) should be performed in parallel with the development of core technologies such as control and sensing of robots. In Korea, the development of robotic crane-based construction automation(RCA) system is progressing, and the research group has recently developed newly designed steel joint to improve the efficiency of the system. However, performance of the new system should be examined prior to its application on construction sites. Therefore, This study analyzed performance of the new steel frame focused on its constructibility by carrying out mock-up test. As a result, the steel frame satisfied the standards of allowable stress and deflection. It also enables to reduce the time for installation.

The main purpose of this study is to figure out of seismic structural behaviour of Gukrakjeon of Bongjung-Temple which is the oldest wooden architecture in Korea, and to evaluate in engineering aspect of seismic records. The non-lineal analysis is essential for accurate evaluation of wooden architecture in seismic behaviour. Based on the experimental test with applying cycle forces in joint specimens is focusing on not only to prove the structural characteristics, but also to evaluate damping ratio, As the result of this test, damping ratio is affected not the joint methods but the frame variations. The average damping ratio was 26%.

Recently, structural system of apartment building is changing from wall type to column type to accommodate various life styles of residents in Korea. Reinforced-concrete bearing wall structures have been mainly used in apartment construction since 1980's. It is impossible to remove the bearing wall in case of remodeling a house, so that the lightweight wall is needed to apply to the column type structure of the Long Life Housing. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the construction performance of the wall. Constructibility reviews are performed throughout interview survey from builders who charge with managing the construction of the lightweight wall in field. This paper present that constructor prefer the bearing wall rather than the lightweight wall because of the schedule delay, difficulty of management, and lack of skilled labor. The results indicate what we should improve on the lightweight wall from now on.

Various the low noise & vibration pile methods were developed and used in many construction sites. Low noise & vibration pile methods must be used essentially from the sites where popular complints would be expected. In this paper, low noise & vibration pile methods and screw pile methods were investigated, noise & vibration-free screw PHC pile method, also, was studied and its constructibility and applicability were analyzed.

This paper summarizes the design procedure and constructibility of an ECC (Engineered Cementitious Composite), which is a synthetic fiber-reinforced composite produced with the Portland cement-based mortar matrix. This study employs a stepwise method to develop useful ECC in construction field, which possesses different fluid properties to facilitate diverse types of processing (i.e., self-consolidating or spray processing). To control the rheological properties of the composite, the aggregates and reinforcing fibers were initially selected based on micromechanical analysis and steady-state cracking theory. The stability and consequent viscosity of the suspensions were then mediated by optimizing the dosage of the chemical and mineral admixtures. The rheological properties altered through this approach were revealed to be effective in obtaining ECC-hardened properties, represented by pseudo strain-hardening behavior in uniaxial tension, allowing the readily achievement of the desired function of the fresh ECC.

The steel pipe strut for a means of the retaining structure has been used generally in North America, Europe and China so far. However, Korea and Japan, two countries are much familiar with H-shape steel strut having its anisotropic strength on two different axes(named as strong and weak axes), even though they recognize the steel pipe's excellence of structural function associated with its compressive ability. This trend is mainly due to a number of its field application, accumulated know-hows and workmanship etc. This paper introduces particular features of a high-strength steel pipe strut in comparison with the H-shape steel strut and its application for two excavation sites in Seoul. As a result of field verification, the high-strength pipe steel strut is more effective than the H-shape steel strut in terms of construction costs, schedules, constructibility and structural stability.
