Domestic construction industry that accounts for nearly 17.5 percent of GDP is one of the major industries that has been leading domestic economy development. However, accumulated negative image such as corruption, fraudulent work and 3D industries shadowing the remarkable achievement is rampant. In order to improve the image for construction industry, this research investigated various cases and activities related to the image enhancement. Cases analyzed include activities of National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER) and Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) such as 'Build Your Future', 'Construct My Future', 'Positive Image 2004', and so on. Based on the analysis results, a strategic framework to improve the image of Korean construction industry was proposed. It is envisioned that improved image of the industry will positively affect the growth of the construction industry by attracting more qualified human resources.

The construction industry has been leading the growth of the nation's economy not only by providing with various infrastructure projects but also by positively impaction related industries such as crating numerous job opportunities. Relevant statistics show the production amount of construction taking about 17.5% of the GDP (Gross Domestic Product). In spite of its positive impacts on the economy, image of Korea construction industry is generally reflected as negative mainly because of its environmental disruption, low payment, bribe, fraudulent work and inefficiency. It brings students to be reluctant choosing the construction industry as their carrier path and governmental and principal research status. Therefore it has been difficult to recruit highly qualitied human resources to the industry while the morale of the whole industry has gradually become demoralized. To improve this stand, many domestic researchers carried out research projects for improving the image of Korea Construction Industry. This study also sympathizes with necessity of improving the negative image of construction industry to remain as one of the leading industry in the 21st century. Especially, this study focused on finding important factors which have significant influences on the image of the industry. Through out the research, image influence factors was identified by rigorous literature review and interviews as industrial and academic experts. Factors, then, categorized and used as the main framework for the survey which designed to fine the degree of impacts on the image of the construction industry. In analyzing the survey results, various statistical techniques was employed including factor analysis, Chi-Square-Test, Correlation Analysis and Multiple Linear Regression. Identified as the most influent factors to the image of the construction industry include morale of construction employee, and prospects the industry which of the judgement by payment, impacts on nation's economy, future of the industry, etc.

Construction engineers are the core resource for the sustainable development of construction industry and positive images toward construction engineers give much impacts on recruit and retainment of the young and talented. Although previous studies reported on negative aspects of the image of construction industry, the image of construction engineers has not been properly investigated to date. The objective of the study is to compare images of construction engineers as perceived by general public and construction engineers themselves in order to identify key characteristics and implications. The result shows that construction engineers themselves, compared with general public, have more negative tendencies on images of construction engineers. The study suggests that it is critical to enhance the understanding of roles of construction engineers and their morality in order to improve general public's perception on construction engineers images. On the other hand, fundamental measures to be taken to restore the environments of construction industry for construction engineers to improve their self-perception on images of construction engineers.

The construction industry is very important to supply the facilities and infrastructure in Korea. However, the images of construction industry are negative in actual. In addition, the studies to improve the images of construction industry up to now have a limitation to research the images about that time. So, in this study, the authors examined and analyzed the peoples' trend changes of the images of construction industry with time. The results showed that the positive images of construction industry about the contribution to national economy and the future prospect are diminished. And it is revealed that the negative images of construction industry about the morality are decreased, too. The authors proposed the strategies to improve the images of construction industry by the based on these results.

Classifying work trades using images can serve an important role in a multitude of advanced applications in construction management and automated progress monitoring. However, images obtained from work sites may not always be clean. Defective images can damage an image classifier's accuracy which gives rise to a needs for a method to enhance a work trade image classifier's performance. We propose a method that uses work dependency information to aid image classifiers. We show that using work dependency can enhance the classifier's performance, especially when a base classifier is not so great in doing its job.

3D(Difficult, Dirty, Dangerous) 산업의 대표적인 산업으로 인식되는 건설업은 현재 노무기능인력의 고령화와 신규 기능인력 육성의 어려움이라는 문제에 당면하였으며, 이러한 3D 산업이라는 이미지의 탈피 및 노동집약적 사업구조에 대한 변화에 대한 대안으로써 타산업과의 융복합을 통한 이미지 쇄신 및 생산성 향상을 위해 자동화 및 정보화를 위한 노력을 경주하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 건설 자동화 및 정보화를 위한 알고리즘 개발 연구방법론에 대한 기초연구로써, 초고층 공사에서의 물류 효율화를 위한 장비간 통신방법에 대한 모델을 설정하고, 해당 모델에 대해 적용 가능한 알고리즘을 도출하는 프로세스를 규명함으로써, 건설 자동화 및 정보화 연구를 진행하는 단계에서 최적화(Optimization)를 위한 알고리즘 규명에 대한 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

건설산업공생발전위원회가 지난해 10월 출범했다. 국토해양부장관을 필두로 주요 발주기관장과 종합 전문 설비협회 단체장, 민간전문가 등이 대거 참여한 위원회가 건설산업의 당면과제를 논의하기 시작한 것이다. 그동안 상생협력 및 동반성장을 지원하기 위한 제도 개선이 지속적으로 이뤄져 왔지만 이번 공생발전위원회는 건설산업 공통의 과제와 미래 발전방안을 민 관이 함께 모색한다는 점에서 향후 적지 않은 성과가 기대된다. 공생발전위는 크게 ${\bigtriangleup}$건설문화 개선 및 이미지 제고 ${\bigtriangleup}$건설산업 참여주체 간 공생발전 정착 ${\bigtriangleup}$건설산업의 경쟁력 제고 등 3가지 대주제를 제시해 놓고 있다. 이 위원회에 정해돈 대한설비건설협회 회장이 설비건설업계 대표로 참석하여 기계설비업계의 당면문제를 건의하고 있다. 이에 따라 지난해 12월 23일 열린 제3차 회의에서는 그동안 대한설비건설협회가 지속적으로 건의한 저가하도급 심사제도 개선, 하도급 계약 시 부당특약 근절방안, 산재은폐 제도개선 등의 논의가 본격화 되었다. 이처럼 설비건설업계는 공생위원회가 저가하도급 유도 및 불공정 하도급 관행 등을 개선해 줄 것으로 기대하고 있다. 즉, 하도급업계가 피부로 느낄 수 있는 진정한 공생발전이 이루어지기를 기대하고 있는 것이다.
