The purpose of this study was to investigate the performance of hollow reinforced concrete bridge column systems with reinforcement details for material quantity reduction. The proposed reinforcement details have economic feasibility and rationality and make construction periods shorter. A model of hollow reinforced concrete bridge columns was tested under a constant axial load and a quasi-static cyclically reversed horizontal load. As a result, proposed reinforcement details for material quantity reduction were equal to existing reinforcement details in terms of required performance. The companion paper presents the experimental and analytical study for the performance assessment of hollow reinforced concrete bridge column systems with reinforcement details for material quantity reduction.

These days, shipbuilding companies are making an effort to adopt the IT technology in order to improve the production efficiency. One such effort is to utilize a planning and scheduling system to predict the production cost in advance. In this system, assessing the welding material quantity is an important factor. Unfortunately, obtaining the welding material quantity in the early design stage is extremely difficult because the detailed production information, which is essential in deriving the cost associated with welding, is normally available at a later stage. This paper aims at developing a computerized program that produces an index to estimate the welding material quantity in the early design stage. By using only three-dimensional geometric information, the program analyzes the production process and estimates the welding material quantity at any design or production stage when no production information is available. The results can be used for the planning and scheduling system.

These days, the great part of design processes in the field of ship or offshore manufacturing are planned and implemented using the CAD system customized for shipbuilding companies. It means that all information for design and production could be extracted and reused at the other useful fields which need cost considerable time and efforts. The typical example is the field of welding material quantity evaluation which is demanded during the construction of ship or offshore structures. The proper evaluation of welding material to be used and the usage of them at the stage of schedule planning are mostly important to achieve the seamless process of production and costing in advance. This study is related to the calculation of welding length and needed welding material quantity at the stage of design completion utilizing the customized CAD system. The calculated welding material quantity would be classified according to welding posture, assembly stage, block, bevel and welding type so as to improve the accuracy of total cost evaluation. Moreover it is possible to predict the working time for welding operation and could be used efficiently for the cost management using the results of this research.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the seismic performance of hollow RC bridge columns with reinforcement details for material quantity reduction. The proposed reinforcement details provide economy, are rational and shorthen the construction periods. The accuracy and objectivity of the assessment process can be enhanced by using a sophisticated nonlinear finite element analysis program. Solution of the equations of motion is obtained by numerical integration using Hilber-Hughes-Taylor (HHT) algorithm. The adopted numerical method gives a realistic prediction of seismic performance throughout the input ground motions for several test specimens investigated. As a result, the proposed reinforcement details for material quantity reduction develop equal performance to that required for existing reinforcement details.

Conventionally, in material management at a construction site, the type, size, and quantity of materials are identified by the eyes of the worker. Labor-intensive material management by manpower is slow, requires a lot of manpower, is prone to errors, and has limitations in that computerization of information on the identified types and quantities is additionally required. Therefore, a method that can quickly and accurately determine the type, size, and quantity of materials with a minimum number of workers is required to reduce labor costs at the construction site and improve work efficiency. In this study, we developed an automated convolution neural network(CNN) and computer vision technology-based rebar size and quantity estimation system that can quickly and accurately determine the type, size, and quantity of materials through images.

This paper is a study on the modeling of the quantity estimation model for offshore plant Material handling equipment in FEED(Front End Engineering Design) verification stage using system engineering approach which is an engineering design methods. The relevant engineering execution procedure is not systemized although the operation method and Material handling equipment selection with weight and space constraints is a key part of the FEED. Using the system engineering process, the stakeholder requirements analysis process, the system requirements analysis, and the final system architecture design were sequentially performed, and the process developed through the functional development diagram and Requirement traceability matrix (RTM) was verified. In addition, based on the established process, we propose a Material handling quantity estimation model and Quantity calculation verification Table that can be applied at the FEED verification stage and we verify the applicability through case studies.

The quantity bill writing of organized electrical construction can be an effective to quality and process management in the construction. Therefore, in order to overcome confusion of the construction and doing an effective work, the clearly quantity bill writing is need. This paper is a focused to solve a problem of existing quantity bill as the difference in terms of work section and item information, regulatory information of ordering authority. Therefore, a terms of work section and item information, regulatory information of ordering authority has been normalized. Moreover, basic data of simplification for quantity bill writing and structure has been guaranteed.

Part of material and inventory management is one of important factor for business interests. But importance of material and inventory management in domestic construction project has been relatively devalued. The existing study of inventory has been studied with limited individual factor about inventory management. Therefore construction material management needs improvement via an accurate prediction with whole and systematic process viewpoint. and existing theory of material and inventory introduction to construction from manufacturing needs reflecting characteristics about construction project. This paper suggests material management process for economic material management. This paper to make a unit curtain wall of case construction project comparison between total cost of existing material management process and total cost of economic order quantity of proposal material management process To verify usefulness of order point and order quantity determination process.
