Recently, the condensation of walls often occurring in domestic high-rise apartment buildings is an important problem. The main purpose of this study is to develop the prediction method for the surface condensation on curtain wall in high-rise apartment buildings. Therefore, in this study, we first analyzed exterior climate factors through the analysis of the Seoul climate data and predicted the change of indoor temperature by using Apache program to find the cause of the condensation state and to prevent condensation. Also, according to this result, exterior climate factors and interior factors, which caused the condensation, was examined. The thermal performance of the curtain wall and the range of potential condensation were analyzed to focus on high-rise apartment buildings through computer simulation programs. The results are as $follows;^1$) The frame edge of curtain wall has a higher U-value than in the center by $30%^2$) Because of stack effect, the rooms on the higher floor have a lower external ventilation rate resulting to a higher relative humidity3) Installing a ventilation system($20m^3$/h. person) makes it possible to have a higher external ventilation rate, resulting to a lower relative humidity.

In this study, in regard to concrete considering variety of admixture content rate, we evaluated property of adiabatic temperature rise. By setting up high temperature history, we evaluated effect to compression strength property of high strength concrete by early high temperature history. As a result, early high temperature history accelerated Hydration reaction of cement and contribute early strength development but it didn't accomplish performance objective in long-term aged.

These days, the super high-rise buildings construction plans are increased in Korea. But the stack effect in the super high-rise building interrupts the smoke control system's operation because of pressure difference, so it is more dangerous than the general building when firing. Therefore it needs to study about the pressure difference in the super high-rise buildings. We research the smoke control influence factor in the super high-rise building. Reflecting the influence factor, the simulation is practiced the case by case.

The practical difficulties of construction will impose many restrictions on the structural design, and the construction method can also provide unexpected ideas for solving design problems. Through the discussion of three issues closely related to construction in the structural design of Wuhan Center, this paper illustrates the importance of in-depth consideration of the construction situations in the structural design stage. The topics of "Connection between Embedded Steel Plates in Steel Plate Composite Shear Wall" and "Connection Joint between Outrigger Truss and Core Wall" are about how to facilitate on-site construction by simplifying and optimizing detail design. The topic of "Adjusting Internal Force Distribution by Optimizing Construction Sequence" is about how to make the construction process a tool for structural design.

In high-density high-rise cities such as Hong Kong, buildings account for nearly 90% of energy consumption and 61% of carbon emissions. Therefore, it is important to study the design of buildings, especially high-rise buildings, to achieve lower carbon emissions in the city. The carbon emissions of a building consist of embodied carbon from the production of construction materials and operational carbon from energy consumption during daily operation (e.g., air-conditioning and lighting). An integrated analysis of both types of carbon emissions can strengthen the design of low carbon buildings, but most of the previous studies concentrated mainly on either embodied or operational carbon. Therefore, the primary objective of this study is to develop a holistic methodology framework considering both embodied and operational carbon, in order to enhance the sustainable design of low carbon high-rise buildings. The framework will be based on the building information modeling (BIM) technology because BIM can be integrated with simulation systems and digital models of different disciplines, thereby enabling a holistic design and assessment of low carbon buildings. Structural analysis program is first coupled with BIM to validate the structural performance of a building design. The amounts of construction materials and embodied carbon are then quantified by a BIM-based program using the Dynamo programming interface. Operational carbon is quantified by energy simulation software based on the green building extensible Markup Language (gbXML) file from BIM. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) will be applied to analyze the ambient wind effect on indoor temperature and operational carbon. The BIM-based framework serves as a decision support tool to compare and explore more environmentally-sustainable design options to help reduce the carbon emissions in buildings.

As the increase amount of high rise building, equipments for high rise building have been extensively studied. However quality problems caused as the pumping of concrete including loss of flowalility, air content and increasing of the temperature. In this study, fundamental performances of the 80 MPa concrete before·after pumping has been tested. Results showed slump flow increased after pumping temperature of concrete also increased after pumping. Results also shown air content all satisfied the target range and compressive strength of concrete increased about 20 % after pumping, All the performances satisfied the standard for 80 MPa.

As a rule, in case of CFT for high-rise building, high strength concrete is required since it should have high fluidity, segregation resistance and large proportion of cement per unit considering the fi11ing beneath the diaphragm. However, regarding the low-rise building under 20 stories, it is somewhat difficult to use high strength concrete. This is a fundamental study to develop a concrete with normal strength and high fluidity for CFT of low-rise building, whose purposes are in speculating several kinds of changes in concrete's characteristics through various experiments and offering basic documents for practicalization in si to and production through mock-up test.

In this paper, we introduce a new technique for automatic construction of steel frames in high-rise buildings. Basically, we combine advanced robotic technologies to building construction techniques. Four main topics will be developed such as: 1) Planning and synthesis of automatic construction system, 2) Development of construction factory system with climbing oil-pressured robot, 3) Core techniques for automatic assembly for steel frames, and 4) Intelligent resource management system. We expect that this new technique will increase the construction efficiency and will alleviate the manpower shortage problem in the aging society.

The construction projects contain a lot of variables and risk affecting productivity. The duration of the project must be recognized important as for quality, unit cost and safety. There is need for improving work efficiency by investigating relationship of works to prevent delay. This study focuses on analysing the delay factors of steel staircase system to suggest regression model that enables construction productivity estimation. The position of the observers and construction delay factors were expressed by the independent variable of the regression model and productivity was expressed by a dependent variable. This paper suggests quantitative productivity and it is expected that will be helpful estimating application in construction new technologies.

There is a need for effective tracking and control of material loading and delivery time especially during the finishing-work phases to eliminate the need for lay-down space on the site. Hence, it is essential to monitor the relevant information regarding material procurement in construction sites, and it is also the key factor for successful site control and the adoption of the Just-in-Time concept for high-rise building construction. The purpose of this study is to test RFID's readability in order to develop a finishing material monitoring system through the application of RFID technology.
