Effective project planning is essential in construction project management for timely delivery and economic benefit realization. Work packages are pivotal in this planning, providing clear organization and progress tracking. However, existing methods for creating work package schemes often overlook environmental sustainability, specifically carbon emissions-a growing concern in construction. This study introduces a tabu search-based optimization method for work package schemes, aiming to reduce both project costs and carbon emissions. A cost-carbon model is devised, and a tabu search algorithm is developed to identify the Pareto frontier for total project cost and carbon emissions. A case study shows the tabu search outperforms existing heuristics, reducing carbon emissions by 6.19% with a marginal cost increase of 0.9%. The algorithm's adaptability and generalizability suggest it could significantly enhance economic and sustainable outcomes in construction project planning.

This paper analyzed <7-나> and <8-나> textbooks and teacher instruction activities in classrooms, focusing on procedures used to solve construction problems. The analysis of the teachers' instruction and organization of the construction unit in <7-나> textbooks showed that the majority of the textbooks focused on the second step, i.e., the constructive step. Of the four steps for solving construction problems, teachers placed the most emphasis on the constructive order. The result of the analysis of <8-나> textbooks showed that a large number of textbooks explained the meaning of theorems that were to be proved, and that teachers demonstrated new terms by using a paper-folding activities, but there were no textbooks that tried to prove theorems through the process of construction. Here are two alternative suggestions for teaching strategies related to the construction step, a crucial means of connecting intuitive geometry with formal geometry. First, it is necessary to teach the four steps for solving construction problems in a practical manner and to divide instruction time evenly among the <7-나> textbooks' construction units. The four steps are analysis, construction, verification, and reflection. Second, it is necessary to understand the nature of geometrical figures involved before proving the problems and introducing the construction part as a tool for conjecture upon theorems used in <8-나> textbooks' demonstrative geometry units.

In this paper, the method how to build up technological strength in the domestic construction industry competing with foreign foremost construction firms is provided. Each construction company should make individual research and development continuously, and technologies made by the research and development should be applied widely to real construction projects, therefore, the technological strength can be made. To accelerate the research and development each construction company should consider primary factors, e.g. organization structure, special personnel and strategic plan related to technology, and operation system for the research and development.

Construction is a collaborative endeavor. The complexity in delivering construction projects successfully is impacted by the effective collaboration needs of a multitude of stakeholders throughout the project life-cycle. Technologies such as Building Information Modelling and relational project delivery approaches such as Alliancing and Integrated Project Delivery have developed to address this conundrum. However, with the onset of the pandemic, the digital economy has surged world-wide and advances in technology such as in the areas of machine learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have grown deep roots across specializations and domains to the point of matching its capabilities to the human mind. Several recent studies have both explored the role of AI in the construction process and highlighted its benefits. In contrast, literature in the organization studies field has highlighted the fear that tasks currently done by humans will be done by AI in future. Motivated by these insights and with the understanding that construction is a labour intensive sector where knowledge is both fragmented and predominantly tacit in nature, this paper explores the integration of AI in construction processes across project phases from planning, scheduling, execution and maintenance operations using literary evidence and experiential insights. The findings show that AI can complement human skills rather than provide a substitute for them. This preliminary study is expected to be a stepping stone for further research and implementation in practice.

In order to meet the trend, construction public data are already disclosing not only data generated at the construction site but also various data ranging from inspection reports and public construction contracts through multiple portals. However, unlike the excellence of the open performance evaluated by the number of data, it is difficult to evaluate the specific level of disclosure because there is no case of analyzing the quality, ease of use, and possibility of further opening of the public construction data set. On the other hand, performance measurement is already performed using an internationally agreed evaluation method in different fields such as real estate, population, and environment. So it is essential to analyze the current status of public data openings in the construction field and to derive improvement tasks. Therefore, this study conducted a survey of researchers with the highest system utilization targeting representative public data open systems in the construction field, such as E-AIS(세움터) and KISCON. To ensure fairness and increase comparability, the questionnaire was composed using evaluation items on implementing public data conducted annually by the World Wide Web Foundation, an international non-profit organization. With these responses, we investigated the status of public data disclosure and opinions on data quality and derived tasks to improve public data disclosure in construction through the analysis of the results.

Poor safety management in construction management may adversely affect cost, schedule and quality of a project. Heavy fines upon safety offence becomes a burden to the budget; losing working hours as a result of safety incident impacts on the schedule, and compromising quality is always an indirect consequence when workers perform duties in an unsafe site environment. Therefore, promotion of safety management becomes the top priority in any construction manager's agenda. Working safely will benefit construction project and lead to a "real" success. This paper is a case study, based upon "Geller's 10 principles for achieving a total safety culture", reviewing how a Hong Kong leading construction company fosters the safety culture and possesses a pleasant safety record over years. Its safety performance is not only well ahead the local industry, but also ranges top within the Asia Pacific region and comparable to those mature Western industries. The review concluded that safety culture is one of the major components in construction management and collaboration is the essence to realize this positive culture within an organization. Safety management is not merely a "top down" approach, but requires the positive "bottom up" actions from the other end. The successful story of this company can demonstrate the contribution of safety management in construction management.

In this study, there should be a debation on the methods, such as considerations on the CM organization of skyscraper project for the client's side, process and impact factors need to be taken, and suggesting the evaluation and selection criteria, which may lead strategic decision-making by the client. Owner of the CM organizational decision to establish a variety of alternatives, the range of CM performance characteristics of the project, considering the weight and also by evaluating the effectiveness of appropriate alternative is selected. Domestic skyscraper project, decisions about the CM organization for 'S Tower' prior to the proposed decision and the criteria was applied. As a result, domestic CM/PM companies and overseas CM/PM companies were doing business as J/V, Supervision of the integration work order types showed the highest performance levels. when they ordered CM services. The project cost reduced and organizational improvements, the results of applying alternative way, improve on-site construction plans, sharing key technologies, process improvement plan could benefit from such expectations.

Maintenance services provided to users in buildings are not sufficient simply to provide them, but it is necessary to provide them with a service system that can accurately identify and respond to users' needs. This study analyzed the relationship between user satisfaction with the helpdesk service corresponding to the building claim and the quality of service of the maintenance organization to identify the interaction between the user and the maintenance organization in the building. We then examined whether there were significant differences between the buildings in terms of variables in the helpdesk service that affect the user's satisfaction. It was also presented as a measure of the quality of service of the SERVQUAL tool to assess the potential for building maintenance response strategies. Research shows that each building has a helpdesk service item that is significant in user satisfaction and empathy has emerged in a typical dimension as SERVQUAL dimension.
