Construction works have become larger and more complex, improving productivity by introducing Information Technology (IT) is pursued. In this circumstance, many different kinds of project management system is being introduced, and various IT technologies are applied such as Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), Bar Code, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Web Camera, and so on. However, these kinds of technologies might cause reprocessing of information and ineffectiveness of project because of lack of real time information processing technology or separation between construction sites and management offices. Therefore, this research aims to develop Application that can be applied efficiently for construction material management, by understanding problems of former management system with questionnaires and extracting functions with analysis of requirements. This will be possible to input information automatically, to process and check material information in real time, and to identify the location of necessary material. Then, the problem of separation between construction sites and management offices are solved, and as a result, more efficient management of materials in construction sites will become possible.

Nowadays, High-rise building becomes higher and bigger than ever. As a result, lots of construction materials are needed at the same times. Because of divided diverse process of construction, several different Processes concur simultaneously with complexity of procurement. So, effective construction material supply and lift-up are essential part of the spot. Especially, when ending part of construction, there are much conflict between finishing and equipment materials also problems of folding lift-up. The Purpose of this paper is suggesting better effective lift-up system through analysis of loading factors.

Due to the rapid development of Internet technology, qualities of Web services are steadily improving and the Web database systems are actively employed to efficiently manage proper informations in various fields. In this paper, we propose a Web database system for the efficient material management for reusing construction materials. The proposed Web-based management system is operated using the spring framework, after constructing a database based on the collected data including tag ID, Location, Material, State, and Cycle, using the RFID(: Radion Frequency IDentification) system equipped with a location estimation module. Recently, the processing problem for a large amount of the residues generated at the demolition stage of various buildings is magnified in the construction site. The proposed Web-based construction material management system is expected for improving the processing problem as increasing the reusability and for reducing the construction cost as efficiently managing the construction materials for the reuse.

Construction sites are becoming larger and complex with the growth of national economy. Accordingly, It is essential to indentify real-time information about materials, equipments and manpower during construction at job sites. Even though research utilizing cutting-edge sensors has been conducted in architectural engineering field; this area of research is almost nil in civil engineering field. Therefore a feasibility study to find a way to apply cutting-edge sensors to an in-situ tunnel construction site adopting NATM is tried as the first step. After listing all construction materials needed in each activity, the most representative materials were identified so that IT technology can be applied by attaching and monitoring sensors to the selected materials; shotcrete and lining were selected as representative materials. Moreover, a plan to visualize construction process and progress management system using selected representative materials was proposed.

There are many problems in management of high-rise building construction performed in downtown area due to limited spaces and equipments for increasing kinds and quantities of material. By these restrictions, problems such as increase of construction cost. delay of construction period, decrease of productivity, occurrence of accident are caused. Recently, studies on JIT concept have focused on construction materials as a solution for the problems. But, studies about finishing material are insufficient yet. Accordingly, this study suggests flowing of current material management, JIT management effect, and development direction of lifting-up and procurement system with Low-emissivity double Glazing, among of main finishing materials.

Part of material and inventory management is one of important factor for business interests. But importance of material and inventory management in domestic construction project has been relatively devalued. The existing study of inventory has been studied with limited individual factor about inventory management. Therefore construction material management needs improvement via an accurate prediction with whole and systematic process viewpoint. and existing theory of material and inventory introduction to construction from manufacturing needs reflecting characteristics about construction project. This paper suggests material management process for economic material management. This paper to make a unit curtain wall of case construction project comparison between total cost of existing material management process and total cost of economic order quantity of proposal material management process To verify usefulness of order point and order quantity determination process.

Construction sites are becoming larger and complex with the growth of national economy. Accordingly, it is important to identify real-time information about materials, equipments, and manpower during construction at sites. Even though research utilizing position tracking sensors has been conducted in architectural engineering fields, this area of research is almost nil in civil engineering fields. Therefore, a feasibility study to find a way to apply position tracking sensors to an in-situ tunnel construction site adopting conventional tunnelling method is performed in this study. A methodology is proposed that the progress management of the tunnelling work can be monitored by checking construction materials needed at job site and the safety management system can be assessed by checking distance between in-situ workers and construction equipments. The most representative materials were identified so that IT technology can be applied by attaching and monitoring sensors to the selected materials. Also, time of arrival (TOA) for a position determination technology along with a wireless network technology was chosen and build wireless network system. The adopted methodology was applied to an in-situ tunnelling site, and verified the usefulness of the proposed system.

HwaSeong (Suwon Fortress) was built during the reign of King Jeong-jo in the Choseon Dynasty. Detailed information on the construction of HwaSeong can be found in Hwaseong Seongyeok Euigui. In this sense, it is necessary to perform a comparative analysis on the Hwaseong Seongyeok Euigui based on construction management factors. This paper aims to analyze the HwaSeong construction project from a modern construction perspective by comparing and reviewing information related to the procurement of construction materials of the time. For this, wooden and steel materials and tiles were analyzed by supply area, supply channel, type and price. From the results of the analysis, it is found that the government used both private and official channels to supply materials. In particular, except for wooden materials that could be supplied from Bongsan, the supply of materials showed a high dependency on private channels. In terms of steel, it was almost 30 percent cheaper through private channels than when purchased through the official channel. Finally, materials vulnerable to damage like tiles were manufactured from the areas near the construction site. From this fact it can be interpreted that the government had a flexible procurement system, including manufacturing on the spot and external suppliers,depending on the property of the material. It is expected these analytical results will serve as key data to understand the management factors in constructing HwaSeong.
