Compared with the Certification Requirements for Professional Engineer in other country, those of Korean are not satisfactory. This is due to a few facts such as no relation with accreditation of engineering education and no separation of technical field and engineering field. Eventually, this problem makes it impossible to ensure the international mobility of Korean professional engineers. This research reviews the international trends regarding the professional engineer certification requirements, compares the requirements of Korea and other countries, proposes three alternatives for improvement, and suggests two implementation plans for the alternatives.

By prosperous condition of construction economy in the early 90s in korea, we needed a lot of the qualified professional engineers(PE) to manage the construction site. In order to meet the high demand of P.E., government has established the admitted engineer system(AES) which is given to admitted engineer who do not take the written exam but have equivalent working experience in 1995. However, since 2000, while professional engineer's shortage has been resolved, the opposite situation has occurred that is serious over-supply of construction engineers. Thus, government announced that will abolish the admitted engineer systems as recognized existent admitted engineers. However, Professional Engineers institution is insisting that must not recognize existent admitted engineer. From this point of view, it is critical to make the supply-demand forecast systems as a derivative approach of system dynamics also, that is useful in comparing the argument between government and Professional Engineers institution. This paper describes about qualified engineer's supply change by admitted engineer system abrogation and suggests the idea to regulate the supply and demand with the improvement of the regal system.

The Environment - friendly construction industry has developed rapidly with sustained development of related technologies and government assistance. However, there is lack of consideration for nurturing professional manpower for Environment - friendly construction industry. In order to support rapid growth, it is necessary to analyze the competency of professional manpower to prepare for successful Environment - friendly construction industry. Thus, this research derive competency variables through the literature review and experts' interview was applied toward an validating of the key variables. Further, a survey of competency factors for sustainable construction was performed and analyzed through exploratory factor analysis. The result showed that four key competency factors were derived, and two factors stood out : Understanding of Sustainability and Affective Competency. The meaning of this research is to investigate relationship between the characteristics of Environment - friendly construction and importance of competency factor.

A plan of construction of subsea tunnels connecting Korea-Japan and Korea-China have been discussing over the past several ten years. This paper were wrote about the present capacity of our engineer, the cooperation plan of politics and economy. Especially we examined and studied resolution method and technical problem in the construction of Sub-sea tunnel. In terms of excavation technology, Blasting and water resistance technology should be cared considering the status of rock such as fault in the deep sea. After of a construction work, it should be carefully designed and constructed for the fire and leakage management in Tunnel, It should be applied to High Construction Management Professional and Value Management(CVS) etc.

This paper focuses on bibliometrics analysis of personnel training in construction management specialty using visualization software CiteSpace from CNKI database. And points out the research situation and development trend of college personnel training on construction management in China. The results show : (1)the research of professional talents in colleges of construction management presents continued activity, and the source journals are widely. There are a lot of researchers pay attention to this issue, but collaborate little with each other; (2)Most of literature fasten on the practical talent training mode, practical teaching reform and course system reformation. Therefore, we should be further strengthened in academic cooperation, be further broadened research scope, be further enriched the insight of the research, and should follow with interest the issue on personnel training on construction management under the background of new engineering disciplines.

Construction delay is one of the basic constrains to achieve the project objectives in developing countries. This study aims to find the causes and effects of construction delays in developing countries. A thorough literature review has been done following the content analysis method. The relevant literature of 28 developing countries was collected from the scholarly journals published in the period of 2006 to 2016. The different developing countries are grouped into three geographic regions, i.e. South and Southeast Asia, Middle East, and Africa. In these regions, total 53 potential causes of delay under 8 major groups are identified. Frequency and ranking of these factors have been done. The factors, delay in progress payment by owner, contractors' cash flow problem, improper planning and scheduling, poor site management, and change order by owner during construction, are acknowledged as critical causes of delay in developing countries. This study will assist both academic and professional experts providing more insight about the construction delays and project management in developing countries.

It has been debating on the performance evaluation of professional construction management (PCM) services since its introduction to Taiwan's construction industry more than a decade ago. Several evaluation systems were proposed by previous researchers. However, there has no comparison study been conducted for the feasibility, effectiveness, and appropriateness of these systems to the performance management (PM) of practical PCM services. This paper is intended for this end to compare the existing PCM performance evaluation systems in Taiwan. A real world design/build (D/B) building project was selected for case study. The result of case study concludes and compares the pro's and con's of the three systems. At the end, it recommends strategies for selecting the most appropriate PCM performance evaluation for PCM services.

Demand Side Management(DSM) is a system to reduce the investment cost for new power plant construction and expansion of supply facilities, power through the investment for the energy conservation and load management. In this study, the trend of the energy environment, the necessity and feasibility of DSM shall be investigated and analysed, so that this study will give a help to select and develope a proper DSM technologies for actual use.

The number of Construction Management Professional(CMP) is 2700 among 4600 of the total CMPs in Korea. Their characters and abilities are quite different from others. Because they must have 10 year field experiences, complete 180 hours CM oriented lectures and pass the certification test including written and interview in depth. And then, their level of standard is maintained by the Continuous Professional Development(CPD) program, periodic forum, case study seminar and CMP vision execution strategy sponsored by the CMP Association.

After the introduction of Professional Engineer System to secure superior technical personnel in 1963, the engineering license regulations were introduced in 1995 - the person qualified with either the academic back ground or career in the construction field can be authorized as a construction engineer- to cope with higher demands for construction engineers caused by revitalization of construction business such as 2 million house construction. As a result, the number of construction engineers has been increased drastically since year 2000, which caused serious problems in utilizing top technical certificate, the PE's. Recently, relating to the opening of technology market according to WTO agreement and mutual authentication among countries and etc., the government is preparing legal and systematic foundations to guarantee the professionalism of engineers. Through the exact supply-demand forecast of PE's reflecting these systematic aspects, we are going to analyze the problems in the supply-demand of PE's and suggest the systematic improvement plans for managing the supply-demand of PE's. The result of this research can be used for building efficient and consistent raising and utilizing system of PE's as well as supply and demand system of qualified PE's
