Ubiquitous technology is believed to be the next trend following the 3rd wave by information technology to revolutionize the modern society. Ubiquitous construction which is the convergence of ubiquitous technology and construction technology is the blue ocean area for creating new values in the construction industry and therefore requires pro-active participation from construction companies. Many expect that the ubiquitous society would get started in the year of 2008 and the year 2015 be the time of maturity. The importation of 100 U-Cities to foreign countries would be a new driving force for the growth of our economy and construction industry.

In the edge of new jumping up in global market, our construction industry is required to develop a competitive power and new construction market. As a considerable global player, our construction industry and information technology industry are regarded as to achieve more competitiveness and new market by developing fusion technology between information and construction technology. But, practically not only the technologic barrier but unripe developing model, it is time to visualize fusion strategic model and possible area as a constructional point of view. The aim of fusion technology is to increase productivity by reducing labor power and over all life cycle cost and to suggest new market with effective demanding power such as ubiquitous-city. As a successful development model, both the demand driven approach dealing with prompt IT developing speed and a circular leading model boosted by leading group will be key factors.

Recently, micropiling techniques are increasingly applied in foundation rehabilitation/underpinning and seismic retrofitting projects where working space provides the limited access for conventional piling methods. Micropiling techniques provide environmental-friendly methods for minimizing disturbance to adjacent structures, ground, and the environment. Its installation is possible in restrictive area and general ground conditions. The cardinal features that the installation procedures cause minimal vibration and noise and require very low ceiling height make the micropiling methods to be commonly used for underpin existing structures. In the design point of view, the current practice obligates the bearing capacity of micropile to be obtained from skin friction of only rock-socketing area, in which it implies the frictional resistance of upper soil layer is ignored in the design process. In this paper, a new micropiling method and its verification studies via field installation are presented. The new method provides a specific way to grout bore-hole to increase frictional resistance between surrounding soil and pile-structure and it allows to consider the skin friction of micropiles for upper soil layer during design process.

A modular construction method includes factory-prefabricated room-sized volumetric units. Although low-rise buildings have been constructed worldwide using this method for more than 30 years, it is a relatively new technology in high-rise construction. There are three basic methods of constructing high-rise buildings using modular construction: the core method, the core-and-podium combination method, and the modular in-fill method. While the first two have been used in the USA and in several European countries, the third method, introduced in 2011 by an international cruise ship development firm, is a rather new approach for which there are few case histories. Therefore, its applicability and construction feasibility should be verified. As a pilot study to test the applicability of the modular in-fill method, a 12-story residential building was built in Korea. This paper describes a case study of the pilot project. The advantages and disadvantages of the method and its applicability in terms of cost effectiveness and construction schedule management were evaluated.
