Working Posture is an important factor directly connected with quality and productivity of the construction project. In particular, High-rise building construction is required to manage the working posture due to the repetitive task and unfavorable working condition such as high place work, limited space. However existing construction planning of high-rise building construction has a negative effect on the labor's productivity because it is not insufficiently considered for working posture. Therefore the purpose of this study is to suggest a work that needs improvement by analyzing labor's working posture quantitatively using OWAS method. These results would provide the basic information to improve the productivity of the construction project by supporting the construction plan considering the working posture in high-rise building.

Excavation is most commonly used activity in all construction projects. All contracting agencies prefer to use bigger and heavier excavators and dumpers on site to do excavations if quantity of excavation is huge. Estimation of required number of excavators and dumpers for completion of excavation could be rather a tedious process involving repetitive calculation on which professionals spend their valuable time. As the Information Technology is highly involved in construction section there os need to have IT model for estimation of number of excavators and dumpers. The developed model is useful to calculate required equipments within short period of time. The purpose of the developed IT model is to save the time and efforts of the construction professional. The paper discusses about model which can be used on site to estimate numbers of excavators and dumpers required for completion of certain quantity of excavation within the given time. The calculation considers various existing formulas and method to generate the output. This information could certainly be useful in planning equipments on construction project sites. The tool is user friendly where any non IT background person can use it on construction sites.

Robots for construction sites, although not deeply widespread, are finding applications in the duties of project monitoring, material movement, documentation, security, and simple repetitive construction-related tasks. A significant shortcoming in the use of robots is the complexity involved in programming and re-programming an automation routine. Robotic programming is not an expected skill set of the traditional construction industry professional. Therefore, this research seeks to deliver a low-cost approach toward re-programming that does not involve a programmer's skill set. The researchers in this study examined an approach toward programming a terrestrial-based drone so that it follows a taped path. By doing so, if an alternative path is required, programmers would not be needed to re-program any part of the automated routine. Changing the path of the drone simply requires removing the tape and placing a different path - ideally simplifying the process and quickly allowing practitioners to implement a new automated routine. Python programming scripts were used with a DJI Robomaster EP Core drone, and a terrain navigation assessment was conducted. The study examined the pass/fail rates for a series of trial run over different terrains. The analysis of this data along with video recording for each trial run allowed the researchers to conclude that the accuracy of the tape follow technique was predictable on each of the terrain surfaces. The accuracy and predictability inform a non-coding construction practitioner of the optimal placement of the taped path. This paper further presents limitations and suggestions for some possible extended research options for this study.

Labor productivity is a significant factor related to control time, cost, and quality. Many researchers have developed models to define method of measuring the relationship between productivity and various constraints such as the size of working area, maximum working hours, and the crew composition. Most of the previous research has focused on estimating productivity; however, this research concentrates on estimating labor productivity and developing time and cost data for repetitive concrete pouring activity. In Korea, "Standard Estimating" only contains the average productivity data of the construction industry, and it is difficult to predict the time and cost of any particular project; hence, there are some errors in estimating duration and cost for individual activity and project. To address these issues, this research collects data, measures productivity, and develops time and cost data using labor productivity based on field conditions from the collected data. A probabilistic approach is also proposed to develop data. A case study is performed to validate this process using actual data collected from construction sites and it is possible that the result will be used as the EVMS baseline of cost management and schedule management.

건설공사의 공정 계획에 많이 사용되는 네트워크 방식의 공정표는 CPM방식과 PERT 방식으로 분류할 수 있다. 네트워크 공정표에서는 주공정선의 산정은 전진 계산과 후진 계산을 통하여 가장 합계기간이 크게 산출되는 경로를 선택하는 방식에 의하는 것이 일반적이다. CPM 기법에서는 각 액티비티의 소요기간이 고정된 값으로 제시되므로 이를 기반으로 하여 주공정선의 산정이 용이하다. 그러나 PERT 네트워크에서는 소요기간이 확률적으로 주어지므로 단순히 특정 경로 상 액티비티 기간의 합계만으로 주공정은 정하는 것은 불합리하며, 확률에 기반하여 산정된 예상기간에 의해 최가능 주공정으로 제시되어야만 PERT의 목적에 부합할 것이다. 이는 목표 기간에 따라 주공정선이 변화할 수 있으며, 경우에 따라서는 예상 기간이 더 작은 경로가 최가능 주공정이 될 수 있음을 의미한다. 이러한 개념에 의거하여 본 연구에서는 PERT 네트워크 공정표에서 경로별로 예상기간의 비교를 통해 확률적 의미를 가진 최가능 주공정을 도출하는 기법을 제안하는 것을 목적으로 진행한다. 체계적인 대안 경로 도출을 위해 작업 구획과 작업 공정이 교차하여 반복적으로 진행하는 방식의 네트워크 반복 작업 공정표를 대상으로 하여 대안 경로 도출 방식을 제시하였으며, 도출된 경로를 대상으로 예상 기간과 표준 편차를 산출하여 예상기간이 목표 기간을 초과할 확률을 기반으로 하여 최가능 주공정을 산출하는 기법을 제안하였다. 사례 연구를 통해 최가능 주공정은 고정된 경로가 아니며 목표 기간과 표준편차에 따라 변화할 수 있음을 예시한다. 본 연구에서 제시된 기법은 건설 공사와 같이 목표 공사기간이 변화하는 상황에서 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것이며 기간 예측의 리스크를 명확화하는데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The accident risk at the construction workplace associated with agricultural engineering is comparatively higher than those of other fields due mainly to its complex work types and processes. Agricultural engineering deals with a variety of agricultural infrastructures from irrigation and drainage facilities to giant-scale coastal reclamation land infrastructures. The characteristics that most agricultural projects have conducted on a small-scale even worsen the situation drawing low attentions to risk management. Therefore, systematical risk assessment that focuses on details of agricultural construction work process is required in order to enhance safety management capacity and to prevent repetitive accidents ultimately. This study aims to categorize construction work types and processes of agricultural construction works, and to quantitatively assess the accident risk of them based on accident analysis. Regarding classification of construction works, actual 827 accident cases were thoroughly reviewed and coded by their construction site, facility and work type, project scale and so on. Most accidents (71.8 % of total cases) occurred in small-scale construction workplaces with less than 5 billion Korean won project budget. And those accidents related to agricultural infrastructure project (37.4%) and agricultural water development project (22.4%). In terms of work types, accidents frequently took place in form-work followed by pipe installation work, steel bar work and concrete work. The potential risks were compared with actual outbreak of accidents based on Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The results show that the potential conditions of accident expected to be took place is somewhat different from the actual conditions where accidents actually happened. This implicates that risk management manuals or education needs to be adjusted by reflecting unexpected circumstances. Overall, this study is meaningful in that the results could be foundations as to strengthen risk management capacity for agricultural engineering projects.
