Highway construction is a combination of linear, repetitive, and highly equipment intensive operations. Various types of construction equipment are deployed to ensure undisrupted performance of construction, and thus productivity improvement and cost-saving can be achieved through well-thought-out planning. The selection of construction equipment is dependent upon construction sequence, site conditions, and construction methods. In the process of planning, management should consider various types of construction methods per each type of construction operation. Also, management should map out proper construction equipment operation plan that takes the construction duration and cost measures into consideration. However, limited availability of historic data from the similar types of operations has been a stumbling block to proper construction planning, making the operations performed based upon experience and intuition guided by rules-of-thumb. As a consequence, the planing phase rarely provided an adequate validity in the implementation phase. The researchers developed a process logic for each construction type that management can utilize from early phase of highway construction planning process. Moreover, derived the construction equipment combination optimized for efficiency by using the process simulation technique. The developed method is expected to be useful for the decision-making process that aims to evaluate efficiency of various process plans and to ensure optimal selection of construction equipment for highway construction projects.

Cost estimation in the early phase enables government to plan public budgeting more efficiently by providing information about construction cost. However, cost estimation in the early phase is difficult to predict because only a little information can be utilized. The cost estimation method now being used by the government is calculated by length of the road multiplied by unit cost per length and shows high error rate because it cannot reflect the unique characteristics of each project. As the project is being proceeded, level of available information also changed. So, reflecting available information of a project is important. This paper divided early phase into two parts : planning phase and early design phase, and developed cost estimation model considering level of available information of each phase. Total 143 cases are utilized to find influencing variables and develop cost estimation model and model validation is done by adopting required accuracy level. This cost estimation model reflecting level of available information can be applied to public budgeting, feasibility test, and comparison between routes.

This study is started from a situation of korean construction which has been undergoing diversity. And risk of construction project has been increased recently. The purpose of this study is to propose the model which is able to estimate the proper manpower by eliciting the variable which is offered in the pre-design and construction phase. The existing method of estimate has a problem with calculating exact costs. For this model, it was analyzed the existing manpower estimating model and used historical data of 38 apartment houses, constructed from 2000 to now. Based on these, the regression model of the construction manpower was built. And then the regression model was verified. The result of verification was relatively adequate in the statistics exept for some cases. This regression model will help make it possible for constructor to estimate the deduction of retirement more accurate than existing method.

In cost estimation of construction, several methods including quantity-per-unit costing, job costing, unit cost estimation and lumpsum estimation are being utilized in Korea. Among them, a Quantity-per-unit Costing Method is used as a standard of cost estimation in public and private works. This paper presents the realistic job-costing method on all road construction tasks through statistical analyses with field survey data to solve the problems induced by the existing quantity-per-unit costing method. Furthermore, it was found that the newly developed job costing method is able to produce a simple costing procedure and a more actual construction cost estimation by a case study, which was performed to compare particular construction costs produced by two different methods, existing quantity-per-unit costing and newly developed job costing. These methods is compared by Case-study about sub-base. In the case of Job costing method, the estimate is shorter than the other case about 50% and can make up for the weak point about instrument in the current Standard of cost estimation. And it can be depict by Job Costing method about progress of work for using by a plan about construction management.

매립공사시 매립토의 유실로 인한 공사기간의 지연, 공사비 증액 등이 발생할 수 있다. 이에 대한 정량적인 예측은 매우 중요하나, 그에 대한 연구는 상대적으로 미비하다. 본 연구에서는 매립토의 유실은 유입된 유사와 호안 표면의 유사가 흐름에 의해 공사구간을 빠져나간 양이라 정하였다. 매립공사에서 유실량의 산정은 매립물량 산정과 직결되며 이는 경제성 부분에서 매우 중요하다. 그러나 국내에서는 경험에 의존한 유실율을 기준으로 매립물량을 결정하고 있는 실정이고, 현장계측으로도 유실량을 정량적으로 판단하기 쉽지않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 호안 주변의 흐름 특성을 고려한 매립토의 유실량을 정량적으로 평가하기 위한 방안으로 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 수리실험은 길이 13.0 m, 폭 5.0 m의 직사각형 단면의 광폭 수로에서 수행하였으며 일정한 양의 유사를 유입하기 위해 자체 제작한 유사공급장치를 사용하였다. 매립토의 특성을 고려하기 위하여 일반모래($d_{50}=0.621mm$, SG=2.72)와 안트라사이트($d_{50}=1.547mm$, SG=1.61) 두 가지 유사를 사용하였고, 매립토 유실요인 중 흐름특성에 의해 외부로 유실되는 양을 보다 명확히 규명하기 위해 유사를 유입하기 전과 후의 양을 각각 직접 채취하는 원시적인 방법과 3D 스캔을 통한 방법을 이용하여 평가한 유실율과 비교 검토해 보았다. 두 가지 방법에 대한 상대오차는 최대 3.12%로 나타났다. 흐름조건에 따른 매립토의 유실율은 살펴보면 두 가지 유사 모두 한계유속(Vc)을 넘어서는 순간, 급격히 유실율이 증가하였고, 일반모래는 약 10 % 안트라사이트는 약 30%로 각각 나타났다. 향후 매립토의 특성인자의 영향을 명확하게 구분하기 위해 다양한 매립토를 활용하여 보다 많은 조건하에서 실험을 수행한다면 매립토의 유실량 산정의 정확성을 높일 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.

In recent years, the proportion of medium and small-sized apartments within the housing market has seen a noticeable increase, alongside a corresponding rise in disputes related to construction defects. Such disputes are most prevalent in the finishing works phase of construction, which not only are frequent in occurrence but also impose significant repair costs. Furthermore, there is a noticeable scarcity of research focused on the quality management of finishing work defects prior to the completion of construction. Addressing this issue necessitates a methodology capable of preemptively identifying defects by analyzing their frequency and associated costs across various defect types. Consequently, the aim of this study is to propose a risk assessment methodology by conducting an analysis of defect cases across 3,299 apartment units, considering aspects such as frequency and severity. The outcomes of this research endeavor are expected to offer practical management strategies to enhance the quality of apartment finishing works and serve as an academic foundation for the enhancement of construction management systems pertaining to apartment finishing works.

The purpose of this study is to analyze and remedy the irregular rework problems in shipbuilding industry. We collected and refined the rework event log of the SAP (ERP) outsourcing company of SPP shipbuilding. The process discovery and analysis were performed by fuzzy mining, pattern analysis and bottle neck analysis among process mining methods. The reworking of SPP shipbuilding was found to cause production rework and design change rework as ship owner 's requirement, design improvement, and field work were also causes of immaturity. In addition, method of case analysis result should be carried out in order to prevent PB(ship painting)-2A(ship owner request)-P1(re-work of production) which is the most common pattern in rework process. First, in the shipbuilding industry, the reworking process model and the analysis of the cause of rework contributed to prevention and minimization of rework, productivity improvement and cost reduction. Second, the process mining methodology is analyzed and the guidelines for future research are presented. Finally, it has a significance in that it contributes to improvement of business ability by systematically showing process model, problems and causes to enterprise managers.
