Recently, resettlement problems of low income groups in the urban regeneration area have been issued in Korea because they have no capability to purchase (or lease) redeveloped housing (or apartment). There are several approaches for supplying affordable housing and one of these is the bidding system which can reduce construction cost. However, the lowest bidding system has many problems such as dumping and substandard quality. In this context, this study proposed bidding system based on technical proposal applying the concept of the lowest total combined bid price for optimization of bid price, reduction of construction cost and period, and maintenance of suitable quality. This bidding system embraces the best value and cost plus time concept on the basis of an improved lowest price bidding system. It consists of the following components: work unit based, project unit based, and period reducing technical proposals. The proposed bidding system for determining bidders are designed to evaluate the adequacy of each technical proposal in the order of the combined minimum price in an effort to effectively optimize bid prices and reduce the construction periods, as well as to maintain a minimum appropriate quality.

Portland cement production is under critical review due to high amount of $CO_2$ gas released to the atmosphere. Attempts to increase the utilization of a by-products such as fly ash and ground granulated blast-furnace slag to partially replace the cement in concrete are gathering momentum. Many researchs on alkali-activated concrete that does not need the presence of cement as a binder have been carried out recently. Instead, the sources of material such as fly ash, that are rich in Silicon(Si) and Aluminium(Al), are activated by alkaline liquids to produce the binder. Hence concrete with no cement is effect reduction of $CO_2$ gas. In this study, we investigated the influence of the fluidity, air content and compressive strength of mortar on alkaline activator in order to develop cementless fly ash and ground granulated blast-furnace slag based alkali-activated mortar with superplasticizer. In view of the results, we found out that Pn of fluidity and compressive strength is the best in four type of superplasticizer, and PNS of powder type of fluidity is better than that of liquid type in the case of AA.

This study examined concrete characteristics depending on the replacement ratio of recycled fine aggregates, which suits the KS F 2573 concrete recycled aggregate standard. As physical properties, slump, air content, changes in the elapse of time and compressive strength were studied in order to provide basic data for activation of recycled fine aggregate recycling. As a result of experimenting recycled fine aggregate concrete, the increase in the replacement ratio of recycled aggregates led to the increase in slump and air content. Also, when the replacement ratio of recycled fine aggregates was 30%, it was judged that there was no problem with constructability. When the replacement ratio was 30%, recycled fine aggregate concrete had a similar tendency to natural aggregate concrete at a compressive strength of 24MPa. When the replacement ratio was 30%, at a target strength of 24MPa, recycled fine aggregate concrete had the same physical characteristics as natural aggregate concrete. This means that a replacement ratio of 30% is appropriate for replacement of recycled fine aggregates. In future, there will be a need to improve the quality of recycled fine aggregates for activating the use of recycled fine aggregates and further research will have to evaluate physical properties of recycled fine aggregate concrete using improved recycled fine aggregates.

Recently, a research regarding calculation of construction time extension-oriented incidental costs has been intensively suggested in quantitative aspect and recent studies on system improvement has been made continuously. In the case of Domestic Public Construction Works, State Contract Act is applied when the client is government whereas Local Government Contract Act is done when the client is local government, but more meticulous study is required because improvement plan is not proposed even there is a clear demand for improvement of these problems on calculation standard. Thus this study suggested appropriate standard by comparing each the calculation standards followed by 'State Contract Act' and 'Local Government Contract Act', considering the problems accorded, and analyzing field cases. Calculation method of other expenses was differently regulated as the revision of each regulation, and this demonstrates that there is a difference of actual cost from 12.37% to 24.95%. It is shown that less cost of construction time were calculated than actual cost according to a problem of calculation method by State Contract Act as the rate at the time of contract to be applied in other expense rate. This study suggested the rate against incidental cost and the rate of other expense per day against total construction cost as an appropriate rate calculation for other expense based on field database.

Currently, safety management is becoming important at domestic construction sites. Despite the importance of safety management, accidents at construction sites are steadily increasing. Fire accidents among safety accidents cause not only negative effects on schedule delay or work plans at construction sites, but also huge casualties. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to extract the causes of fire at the construction site through the case of fire at the construction site, and to prioritize prevention through the analysis of the factors to contribute to the prevention of fire. As a research method, we select fire factors through case, conduct surveys through expert group, and analyze survey through AHP technique. The results of the AHP analysis of the survey of expert groups showed that the workers and their sub-item ranked high. Therefore, the priority for fire prevention was given, and this research is believed to help prevent fire.

The most commonly used method for space management in the industry is development of site plans. These plans outline how to manage material deliveries, staging areas, and crane locations for construction sites in suburban area but not in congested urban areas. This study focuses on how to efficiently manage space for construction facilities on high-rise buildings in congested urban areas where normally space for facilities around a building footprint is not available. The limitations of available horizontal space create a need to explore vertical expansion of facilities. This raises new aspects of vertical facility handling and flow that need to be considered in the facility design problem. The construction facilities layout plan method provides layout planners with a valuable technique to develop efficient sequences of work that optimally defines how to efficiently utilize the construction facilities and minimize the travel of specific facilities effort on multiple-floor buildings. A genetic algorithm-based heuristic will be presented for generating block layouts for multiple-floor la)rout problems.

In recent years, mechanized construction has become commonplace due to increases in the scale and complexity of construction, and construction machinery is a major factor in successful construction. However, even though the proportion of construction machinery is increasing, analysis of the work capacity of construction machinery is inadequate. In addition, since the standards for all construction machines are currently not defined in quantity-per-unit, the construction period is arbitrarily applied according to the operator at the time of the construction plan. As a result, the construction period of the actual construction is insufficient, and rushed work or construction delays occur. Therefore, in this study, in order to calculate the construction period of the piling work of the pile driver used in the PRD method more accurately than the existing method, the formula for calculating the time required for the piling work of the pile driver was established by collecting piling time data from the daily task reports through the field survey. If the precise construction period of piling work is estimated based on the results of this study, it will be possible to prevent the rushed work and construction delays that occur due to the short construction period.

Design for Safety(DfS) at the design stage is introduced and executed in order to fundamentally reduce the occurrence of construction safety accidents in Korea. Therefore, in this study, the construction method selected by Design for Safety can reduce safety accidents, but the effects on construction duration and costs were examined to confirm the effectiveness of various aspects. The construction method of the structural frame for the exterior wall cladding of the building, which have the factors for the fall accident, was selected for construction safety and compared and analyzed in terms of construction duration and costs. As a result, it was found to be effective not only in terms of safety, but also in terms of construction duration and costs. Therefore, it is considered that the construction method selected by the Design for Safety at the design stage will have a positive effect on the entire construction project.

국내의 국지성 집중호우와 같은 기후변화와 토지피복율 증가 등 복합적인 원인으로 인한 표면 유출수의 증가로 도시에서의 내수침수가 매년 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 이러한 도심지 돌발홍수로 인한 피해에 대한 구조적인 대책으로 지하방수로가 효과적인 방안으로 대두되고 있으며, 현재 신월빗물저류배수시설이 설계단계에 있다. 그러나 미국, 일본 등의 국외의 기설치된 지하방수로에서 발생되는 Geyser 현상으로 인한 피해에 대한 연구는 국외에 비해 미비한 편이므로, 선행적으로 Geyser에 대한 물리기반의 동수역학적인 이해가 필요한 실정이다. Geyser는 홍수 시 급격한 유량의 유입으로 단파가 발생하여 지하방수로 내 공기의 압축이 발생하고 수직관을 통해 공기가 물과 함께 지상으로 분출되면서 발생된다. 따라서 공기와 물의 혼합 유동을 모의해야 하며 동시에 단파의 불연속성을 모의하기 위해서는 기존의 상용프로그램으로는 다소 어려움이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 지하방수로의 Geyser 현상의 발생 예측을 위해 1차원 Saint-Venant 방정식을 지배방정식으로 선정하였으며, 단파 발생을 수치적으로 안정적으로 모의하기 위해 Roe Approximate Riemann 수치기법을 사용하였다. 또한 공기의 압력항을 고려하기 위해서 수정된 형태의 Preissmann slot 모형을 적용하였다. Geyser 현상의 영향인자로서 지하방수로 수평관의 직경, 마찰계수, 바닥경사, 초기수위, 유입유량을 고려하였으며 상류에서 유입되는 유량에 의한 하류에서의 동수역학적 거동을 분석하였다. 5개의 영향인자의 변화에 따른 단파의 유입속도 및 공기부 압력의 변화를 관찰하여 Geyser 현상에 대한 동수역학적 검토를 수행하였다. 추후 본 연구결과를 적절히 활용한다면 지하방수로의 사용 안정성을 확보하고, 홍수발생 시 모니터링 인자도출에 도움이 될 것으로 예상된다.
