The surface of concrete tiles is weak in moisture that it occurrenced efflorescence, but in the former study we found that it is possible to ensure moisture stability of concrete surface by autoclaving. So this study is to discuss the moisture stability and Physical Properties of high-strength glossy concrete according to time and temperature of autoclave curing. As the results, by increasing time and temperature of autoclave curing, compressive strength and surface hardness increased and glossiness decreased. In the case to 3 hour and $180^{\circ}C$ of autoclave curing, there is not effloescences in mosture stability test.

The study of our investigating and analyzing through experiments the performance on nonslip techniques, which has been nationally applied and represented, showed the following results. 1) In wearing shoes condition, regardless the shape of the surface and surface condition of the object, it satisfied the performance standard in cleaned and dried condition and the pulverulent body mixed liquid dispersed moisture condition. However, for the case of the non-slip agent treatment, not likely as the non-slip tape treatment case, the effect was not approved as it shows almost the same CSR as none treatment. 2) In bare foot condition, it satisfied the performance standard in most of the objects except for the Ceramic tile (A), Ceramic tile (B), pure and soapy water dispersed condition.

Nowadays tiles are widely used as architectual material because of their external beauty, solidity with fire-resisting and water-resisting qualities, and convenience for construction, preservation and repairs. Owing to the improvement of living standard and makers scramble for tile markets, we regard tiles as art and culture. Tiles have been developed with technical improvement, based on mutual relation of material and design. The purpose of the third firing is to create high value added as we show artistic merit and decorative effect. For this reason, researches on new material and design have been carried out widely. I made researches whole process from design to printing by means of computer and experiment with color and vetroza of the third firing. I hope that tile makers will share the achievement of university researchers and this paper will be useful for those who are interested in tiles.

Today, in the cultural properties research, there are several methods for knowing the culture of the past through a lot of information that remains and relics contain. Especially, statistical method like presumption of producing center were introduced from computer development at the early 20th century. This study showed the characteristic about firing historic sites presumed as a tile-kiln in the remains of Cheonwang temple sites, Hanam, Gyeonggi province. Also, I used nature scientific methods for correlation between tiles excavated at historic sites and circumference building and obtained there results as follows. First, soft tile parts showed similar water suction ratio(over 10%) like another tiles, except hard tile parts. Second, identification about mineral crystallization in a sample showing low water suction ratio confirmed a result that Mullite, Tridymite, Cristobalite as high temperature crystal form were presented. I know that firing temperature was higher than the other tile parts from this result. Third, statistical analysis from micro-component resulted that tiles excavated at firing historic sites and Cheonwang temple sites were closely connected. As the results, I knew that the tiles got a supply after the establishment of tile-kiln, not at a long distance at the period of Cheonwang temple construction.

Construction CALS has contributed much to the improvement of construction management. Recently, the ubiquitous technology brings another opportunities for expanding tile business horizon in construction. The government policies to upgrade the information technologies in Korean offer an environment in which practical application of ubiquitous becomes more practical. To maintain the level of competitiveness, construction companies need to pay attention to the chance of ubiquitous technologies. This paper introduces the research movement in the construction industry in an attempt to find out the feasibility of ubiquitous technologies such as RFID, USN, etc. The construction process, which is executed in the natural environment, will benefit from the state-of-are information technologies in terms of improved communication interface.

A large number of low-rise buildings experienced serious roof covering failures under strong wind while few suffered structural damage. Clay and concrete tiles are two main kinds of roof covering. For the tile roof system, few researches were carried out based on Finite Element (FE) analysis due to the difficulty in the simulation of the interface between the tiles and the roof sheathing (the bonding materials, foam or mortar). In this paper, the FE analysis of a single clay or concrete tile with foam-set or mortar-set were built with the interface simulated by the equivalent nonlinear springs based on the mechanical uplift and displacement tests, and they were expanded into the whole roof. A detailed wind tunnel test was carried out at Tongji University to acquire the wind loads on these two kinds of roof tiles, and then the test data were fed into the FE analysis. For the purpose of validation and calibration, the results of FE analysis were compared with the full-scale performance ofthe tile roofs under simulated strong wind impact through one-of-a-kind Wall of Wind (WoW) apparatus at Florida International University. The results are consistent with the WoW test that the roof of concrete tiles with mortar-set provided the highest resistance, and the material defects or improper construction practices are the key factors to induce the roof tiles' failure. Meanwhile, the staggered setting of concrete tiles would help develop an interlocking mechanism between the tiles and increase their resistance.

A great amount of fly ash, which is a waste from a thermal power plant, has not been appropriately recycled until now. Landfill of flay ash causes environmental pollution and enormous economic costs. In this study, manufacturing of architectural ceramic tile was investigated replacing fly ash with clay raw material. The properties of porcelain tile was analyzed after manufacturing porcelain tile with mineral based glaze and fast firing process. In particular, the effect of the fly ash addition on the properties of ceramic tile was investigated by increasing the amount of limestone addition. Porcelain tile with fly ash showed excellent bending strength, water absorption, warping and abrasion resistance. However, a significant decrease in durability was observed through the autoclave test. Addition of limestone increased the water absorption, twisting and hydration expansion of the ceramic tile, but it was confirmed that the durability of the ceramic tile with fly ash was greatly improved. In conclusion, recycled architectural ceramic tiles, which can meet domestic construction standards, could be manufactured with the addition of fly ash and limestone.

Recently various construction management systems are applied for more efficient project management, and through them as-built construction information is collected. However, the accuracy of the collected information shows big differences among projects, since tile collection of tile as-built information is not based on objective manner or criteria and also each management personnel uses difference criteria on this based on individual experiences. This initiates the need for a development of methods and information frameworks for efficient collection and management of as-built information with assurance of data accuracy. Therefor the objective of this study is to suggest a method to determine the task performance measurement unit depending on the characteristics of work types. A prototype system was developed for generating task performance measurement units by utilizing MS ACCESS. The information framework and the system developed in this research is expected to help standardized performance measurements across projects by improving the objectivity and the accuracy of the collected information.
