The purpose of this study is to improve regulations such as law and standard contract forms related to defects liability in Korea. Defects liability has been one of the major causes of construction contract disputes in Korea in recent years. It is important to avoid or resolve disputes regarding defects liability through regulations containing clear criteria and to specify the standard regarding the mitigation and remission of the contractor's defects liability. This study was carried out through document research and analysis of judicial precedents. The following are the courses of improvement regarding the mitigation and remission of defects liability in Korea. First, laws and standard contract forms must contain more detailed clauses regarding exemption of a contractor's defects liability, which clearly set out the scope of the defects liability of the contractor. Second, the current system for defects liability favors the owner rather than the contractor - it is necessary to change the defects liability system in order to give the owner and the contractor an equal standing. Third, strict liability is taken on by the contractor even when the term of guarantee for defects lasts longer than the legally set period of liability for defects. Hence, it is necessary to improve the system by alleviating the liability of the contractor through applying negligence liability as opposed to strict liability during the term of guarantee.

Defects caused by apartment houses have the term of warranty liability according to the enforcement ordinance of Acts of the Management of Apartment Houses. In case when defects occur during the term, free defect maintenance can be provided from the construction company. Yet, there occur conflicts between the construction company and residents, as to whether there occur defects or not. To resolve these conflicts, this study aimed to analyze construction classification and types that need managing, based on defects of apartment houses occurring during the term of warranty liability. This research analyzed 138,576 cases of data, as of five apartment house complexes. For the construction classification for defects of apartment houses, wooden flooring products accounted for the highest rate, followed by paper hanging, and wooden window. For the construction types of defects, torn/scratching took up with the highest rate, followed by the condition of defect in fixing and operating. In order to embody defects occurring during the term of warranty liability, into the visualization technique, this researcher utilized the word cloud method. This study will pursue the method for maintaining defects during the term of warranty liability, in the subsequent research, using the data that this research presented.

건설사업에서 공공건설사업은 국가계약법령에 의해 집행되고 있고, 계약유형으로 볼 때 도급, 위임, 고용 등 복합적인 계약성질을 띠고 있으므로, 수급인의 하자책임을 단일화하여 규정하는 것이 쉽지 않다. 이로 인해 계약이행중 발생하는 불완전이행과 목적물 인수 후 발생하는 하자에 대한 수급인의 책임에 대한 적용 및 해석은 어려운 작업이 되어 왔다. 그리고 불완전이행이나 하자에 대한 연구는 활성화되지 못하였고, 불완전이행이나 하자관련 분쟁이 발생하게 될 경우 당사자 일방이 포기하거나 일반론적으로 접근하여 본질적인 문제해결을 이루지 못하였다. 따라서 공공건설사업에 있어서 수급인의 하자책임에 대해 심층적으로 고찰할 필요성이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 인식하여 본 연구에서는 건설공사의 하자나 불완전이행은 제조물책임법에서 규정하는 결함과는 다르므로 국내외 수급인의 하자책임에 대해 고찰한 후, 우리나라 국가계약법령에 근거한 수급인의 불완전이행 및 하자책임을 분석하여 문제점을 도출한 후 개선방안을 항목별로 도출하였다.

Under the Manufacturing Liability Act, consumers want to be protected from manufacturers by mitigating burden of proof as an important target to be protected. However, due to the complexity of the product, it is very difficult for consumers to prove defects from the manufacturing defect. This situation has led to a major revision of the Manufacturing Liability Act, which mitigates the burden of proof of consumers by applying fruitless liability. The Manufacturing Liability Act is comparable to the U.S., which has strong consumer rights and is protected by the Manufacturing Liability Act. The burden of proof can be regarded as the most necessary content for consumers within the manufacturing product liability law when responding to manufacturing defects. The U.S. intends to provide implications for achieving consumer protection in Korea's Manufacturing Liability Act by imitating the U.S. based on the burden of proof. Case comparison regarding burden of proof can be conducted based on various criteria, including criteria for each product and key features for determining the importance of the manufacturing product liability law. The Act on the Responsibility of Korean Manufacturing Products for the Protection of Consumers was developed based on the assessment criteria, and a remedy was proposed to protect consumers who suffered from manufacturing defects.

The defects that are bound to arise in most construction projects cause disputes among the contracting parties regarding the defect warranty liability (DWL)guaranteed by the retention of the contractor's performance security at the end of the performance period of the contract. Most current projects involve a multiple-tier contractual relationship, causing the liability for some defects to overlap. In addition, many construction projects are made up of multiple detailed work types which an expert hired by the owner inspects the part completed by the contractor and pays an interim payment. However, after the completion of work, the contractor will still hold the defect warranty liability. In a scenario in which the work is delayed due to reasons for which the owner is responsible, the defect warranty liability period is also increased, imposing an additional burden on the contractor. In this study, basic research was carried out with the goal of reducing problems related to defect warranty liability Problems related to defect warranty liability cases and the nature of the defect warranty liability period were investigated. Possible solutions to the problems caused by the DWL that were suggested include the separation of the negligence liability period and the strict liability period, as well as the introduction of a retention money system.

This study describes the exclusion of the seller's liability for defects in title under CISG and UCC. Through comparing two provisions, this article provides contracting parties with guidance regarding choosing governing laws and practical advice. CISG and UCC states not only the seller's liability for defects in title but also the exclusion respectively. Under two provisions, contracting parties who wish to avoid this liability may agree that the liability will not apply. Under UCC ${\S}$2-213(2), the seller's warranty can be disclaimed by specific language in the contract or by the circumstances surrounding the transaction. Although there is no express exclusion provision under CISG Article 41 and 42, Article 6 allows contracting parties to agree that they may exclude the application of the seller's liability. Both Article 42 under CISG and ${\S}$2-213(3) under UCC provide where the buyer furnishes specification to the seller. Under UCC ${\S}$2-213(3), it is the buyer's warranty to hold the seller harmless from any claims which arise from the seller complying with specification furnished by the buyer. But, under CISG Article 42, the seller's duty is excluded if the third party right or claim result from the fact that the seller has complied with specifications provided by the buyer. Therefore Article 42 does not charge the buyer with the duty, but rather limits the circumstances under which he could cause claims under Article 42. Interestingly, CISG has provisions which are absent from UCC. First, under Article 41, the seller escapes the liability if the buyer agree to take the goods subject to the third party right or claim. Second, under Article 42(2)(a), the seller is not liable if the buyer knew or could not have been unaware of the third party right or claim at the time of the conclusion of the contract.
