A recent issue of fine dust is particulate matter with a diameter of less than $10{\mu}g/m^3$. It's classified as a pollutant that has a fatal effect on the human body when inhaled. The fugitive dust must be well controlled, since the adverse effects of dust on the surroundings are increased when the dust is blown away by the wind. Since the construction site is the place where the most fugitive dust is discharged in Korea, managing the fugitive dust discharged from the construction site can be an important issue to solve the problem of domestic fine dust. However, since the construction industry in Korea is the largest in Korea, it is difficult to control the emission of fugitive dust in the domestic construction site. In this paper, we compare and analyze the fugitive dust regulations applied to construction sites in major cities and propose the improvement plans to help control the fugitive dust generated in domestic construction sites.
