A high degree of management skills and functions is essential to the success of construction projects. While the various construction management delivery methods have been realized as the solutions, Korean government is planning to introduce 'CM at Risk Method' to the public construction projects. However, even if its effect has been verified successful in the international market, it must be considered before legally adapting the method that it would be suitable to our public sector, In this respect, the purpose of this study is to evaluate and analyze feasibility of 'CM at Risk Method'. In order to do that, 15 attributes of construction projects were found, which were suitable to 'CM at Risk Method' in general, 'CM at Risk-GMP Method', and 'CM at Risk-Cost Reimbursable Method' and suitability of each attribute to each of 9 categories of public construction facilities was evaluated by questionnaire survey to CM specialists. Results showed that 'CM at Risk Method' might not bring improper effect to the industry but due to the characteristic of public sector, the effect would be very limited.

On December, 1996, Construction Management(CM) was introduced in Korean construction industry due to its managerial efficiency proven in the international construction industries. However, It have had serious problems with many regulations, standards, manuals and details of practices considering its constituents and industry conditions. Especially, there were controversial points in the CM fee estimate; difference between the fee on the owner's view point and that from contractor's that impedes appropriate CM services. Therefore, this paper is to analyze public construction projects into Cm fee calculation such as fee as a percent of construction cost, cost plus fixed fee and contract price, and analyzed what is irrationality and why irrationality is made. So it makes a contribution to a study on standards for paper CM fee calculation.

Recently, projects are being actively promoted to develop a new residential district centered around the metropolitan area, or to redevelop the residential area that was established long ago as unplanned land development. In this residential area, the owner can directly construct the building, and the way the building owner builds the residential house is called the direct construction of the owner. If the owner has the construction management (CM) capability while conducting direct management of the owner, the direct construction can be carried out by the CM method. This type of construction is called Owner-CM delivery method. However, it is very rare for small-scale construction in Korea to be implemented by the Owner-CM method. This may be due to the lack of knowledge and experience about the CM of the owner. In this study, we investigated the actual cases of the scheduling for the residential houses of similar size which were built at the same time in the residential housing complex developed near the metropolitan area. The purpose of this study is to derive the success factors of the scheduling in the small-scale construction from the cases carried out by the Owner-CM method. These success factors of the scheduling can be used as meaningful reference for the owners who want to build their own house in the future.

Alternative project delivery methods including design-build and CM at Risk have evolved as a means of meeting owner's diverse needs and implementing project efficiently with limited budget and time in more competitive construction environment. It is time to consider adopting alternative project delivery methods, especially CM at Risk, for domestic construction industry to enhance competitiveness and to provide various options for owners so that they can select more appropriate project delivery methods for the facility being planned. This research report derives suggestions from investigating how CM at Risk has been evolved in the US construction market. Besides the analysis of CM at Risk market in the US construction industry, the characteristics of companies whose market share are in Top 100, the type of facility usually built by this method were investigated. Based on the analysis of CM at Risk in the US, the prepositions in adopting CM at Risk to domestic construction industry and the possibility of adopting this method have been identified.

This study investigates the construction management selection methods for fair competition within the construction management market by analyzing the current status of domestic construction management, the 2010 publication on the status of construction management, and the construction management evaluation criteria. Also, the 2009 publication of top CM service establishments, the average proportion of tender for 120 CM services from 2002 to 2010, and six assessment results which are open to the parties directly involved were statistically analyzed to review the adequacy of the evaluation criteria. This analysis shows that the evaluation criteria for the CM service impedes the development of the construction management industry and companies, since the criteria are decided by the service payment, and the technical skills assessed by technical proposals have no ties with contract prices. Therefore, this study proposes an improvement of the selection methods in accordance with the project characteristics and the technical requirements. However, more research is still needed to derive a detailed classification method of the technical requirement, the owner's evaluation criteria selection, and the preparation of an institutional foundation for the construction manager's post-evaluation.

In 1997, after Construction Management was introduced, it has been ten years; moreover, there has been many thesis until recently. However, in the past thesis, studies of Construction Management were limited to the public and standards for an activation were not certain. So, in this study, using Public Announcement of CM Ability Valuation, we analyzed the market of the domestic CM in the aspect of the number of contracts and the sum of money. The number of domestic construction contracts has decreased since 2002. In contrast with the number, the sum of money has increased. And the market of CM has been extended. However, the occupancy rate of the contract money was low in contrast with the number of contracts. But comparing with the growth rate of economy and Construction market, that of the CM market has been extending. Through this study, we decided that the market of CM was being activated.

In this paper, we design and implement the upstream packet bandwidth allocation algorithm on OPNET-based DOCSIS 3.0 simulator including channel-bonding CM (Cable Modem)s. Previous DOCSIS CM could not support channel bonding, it has problem in upstream bandwidth allocation and determine the contention area. The proposed upstream bandwidth allocation algorithm has been improved the queuing time and success rate. For the simulation, we design the MAC frame structure with channel bonding supported CM and not. And then, this paper design and implement the CMTS node model, CM node model, CMTS process model, and CM process model.

There are many contract patterns in the international construction market, such as CM, EPC, PM and so on. To be geared to international standards, the Construction Ministry of P.R.C improved the laws and regulations related to the construction contract. Therefore, some international contract patterns are available in China now, but the application of the international contract patterns is still in the early stage, At the same time South Korea has made a great achievement to use the international contract patterns in the practical projects. This pater carried out a study to identify differences of construction contract patterns between these Chinese construction market and Korean construction market, and to learn from each other to gain more experiences.
