Due to the increase in the size of buildings and scale, the importance of construction engineering that reflects the constructability from the design stage of the project is increasing. Especially, engineering efforts related to facilities, equipment and construction methods for temporary work at the design stage can significantly contribute to improvement of constructability and project performance. The purpose of this study is to derive construction engineering tasks on temporary work at the design phase of the high-rise building projects. 27 preliminary tasks were firstly investigated through literature review and experts' group interview, and the necessity and importance analysis of each tasks were then performed based on questionnaire survey. Most of the tasks related to plans on structural framework and lifting equipment were analyzed as relatively more important ones. Lastly, 21 engineering tasks, which are classified into 5 factors, were proposed through factor analysis. The factors were determined as 1) structural framework, measurement and circulation, 2) lifting equipment and pumping, 3) space zoning, 4) water supply, 5) temporary facility, electric power supply and lighting. The results of this study can be used as basic data for establishing efficient work process of construction engineering on temporary work at the design phase.

Constructing high buildings is a global trend, and skyscrapers for residing are also increasing. But a period of works for finish construction is different depending on a company while a period of works for frame construction of skyscrapers for residing in the country is regular when considering a difference of a method of construction, and the increase of repeated construction for high buildings and number of related process for finish construction are stressing the importance of improving productivity through construction management and plan for works. Because there are many compositive factors affecting productivity other than technical factors, we should intensively study the way of improvement and prevention preferentially through analyzing factors affecting productivity. So in this study, we present important management factors for making systematic strategy and plan for improvement of productivity by finding factors affecting productivity depending on the degree of importance unifying factors affecting productivity of plan factor(internal factor of construction process) and management factor(outer factor of construction process).

Tower crane hoisting plan is one of the key element for the success of entire High-Rise Building construction. Hoisting time is the basic factor to appropriate hoisting plan which need to the hoisting load estimate and tower crane selection. With this reason, accurate hoisting time is needed to the proper hoisting plan. The current hoisting time estimation for High-Rise Building focus on the hoisting cycle time estimation with historical data. However, this method underestimated the external influences like environmental factor. Thus, this paper aims to develop the hoisting time estimation model with discrete event simulation which include the wind influences with certain height. According to the simulation result, the hoisting time which applied wind influence is increasing with height growth. Because of the high speed wind, the upper area of building has more operation delay time than the mechanical operation time. Seoul, the research area, has the most fastest wind speed on April and the least on October. Due to these differences of wind speed, the hoisting time is estimated with significant differences between April and October. This hosting time estimation model would be used for estimating the influence of wind. Moreover, this could apply to make the realistic hoisting plan.

In recent years, the number of high-rise buildings has been on the rise. As buildings have become larger in scale, significantly different issues related to their construction and maintenance have emerged. In addition, the automation and mechanization of the cleaning work for the curtain wall, one of the most frequently-performed tasks in building maintenance, is required as a fundamental measure. For this reason, a guide-rail type cleaning robot system is emerging as one of the measures in response to external factors, including gust. The major objective of this study is to propose an economic feasibility forecasting model and to apply the a building facade cleaning robot which is now under development.

The volume of material and number of workers mobilized has been on the rise in line with the domestic projects getting higher, larger and complex currently. Particularly for the project in downtown, delivering the resources in timely manner is very crucial in carrying out the overall project as scheduled. Inappropriate lifting plan often causes inefficiency over the entire project, resulting in increase in schedule and cost. Despite of such importance of lifting plan for architectural work, lifting plans at the most of domestic projects, except a few cases for large scale high-rise buildings, have been heavily dependent on engineer's personal experience and intuition alone. To deal with such problems, the study was intended to develop and suggest a systematic and objective process for determining the lift, categorizing the lifting equipment into the two types, one for workers and another for material.

It is necessary to develop a new technology for effectively controlling thermal crack caused hydration heat according to the increasing construction of large size massive concrete structures such as mat foundation of high-rise building. Therefore, to develop a new technology for reducing hydration heat of large size massive concrete in this study, it was investigated hydration heat generation properties of binder using latent heat materials. As a test result, it was confirmed that latent heat materials were advanced on the reduction of hydration heat and control of thermal crack. It is expected to be applied as the excellent technology on the management of hydration heat and thermal crack in large size massive concrete structures.

The unit curtain wall is an exterior finish currently used on the exterior walls of high-rise buildings. Curtain walls used as non-endurance walls are largely classified into stick curtain walls and unit curtain walls, and their use has recently been on the rise to reduce risks at construction sites through factory manufacturing. Accordingly, this study attempted to examine the insulation performance according to the shape of the unit curtain wall profile through insulation simulation.
