  • Excavation is most commonly used activity in all construction projects. All contracting agencies prefer to use bigger and heavier excavators and dumpers on site to do excavations if quantity of excavation is huge. Estimation of required number of excavators and dumpers for completion of excavation could be rather a tedious process involving repetitive calculation on which professionals spend their valuable time. As the Information Technology is highly involved in construction section there os need to have IT model for estimation of number of excavators and dumpers. The developed model is useful to calculate required equipments within short period of time. The purpose of the developed IT model is to save the time and efforts of the construction professional. The paper discusses about model which can be used on site to estimate numbers of excavators and dumpers required for completion of certain quantity of excavation within the given time. The calculation considers various existing formulas and method to generate the output. This information could certainly be useful in planning equipments on construction project sites. The tool is user friendly where any non IT background person can use it on construction sites.

  • Building Information Modeling (BIM) and modular construction are regarded as important technologies that address several issues faced by the construction industry. However, the application guidelines for BIM in current modular construction projects are insufficient. This paper presents the preliminary work on the analysis of BIM utilization in a modular construction project; a five-point likert scale questionnaire was conducted to assess the necessity of BIM applications by the Necessity Index(NI) of nine categories(U1~U9) across two construction phases (onsite and offsite). The survey results indicate that applications for BIM based quantity takeoff for offsite phase(U4) as well as BIM modeling for module joint details(U8) were deemed to be the most necessary in each phase. The results of this study can be used as detailed guidelines for the integration of BIM in modular construction projects.

  • Background and objective: It is difficult to conclusively determine the exact cause of tree defects since multiple causes are involved such as climate change, plantation, tree quality and planting time, construction, planting base, drainage, sunshine conditions, maintenance, and microclimate. The data related to landscaping construction defects are scattered or fragmented by companies and years, but not managed systematically by the defect information management system. Most of the earlier studies associated with tree defects in apartment complexes suggested defect rates after examining tree defects in the completed construction site and proposed fragmentary and subjective conclusions about the causes of defects observed in trees with high defect rates. It is proposed to continue to conduct studies on the establishment and analysis of systematic databases to identify the exact causes of tree defects and measures to improve, and the need to accumulate systematic data in the construction process where many defects arises. This study was conducted to reduce the defects of trees planted in apartment complexes. Methods: Main factors related to tree defects were subdivided based on the results of literature review and a defect investigation at the completion site, and tree history management items were selected and subdivided during the construction stage. Results: The criteria for the preparation of subdivided items were obtained, and the tree history management checklist was written for the site under actual construction and a systematic database was established. Items that are categorized based to the causes of defects include the location of nurseries, date, tree quality, site conditions, planting techniques, microclimates, and maintenance. Conclusion: This study suggested tree history management items based on the tree defects that can be identified at the construction stage and applied them to the selected study site, which differentiates this study from earlier studies. It will be necessary to conduct a comprehensive and objective time series analysis on tree defects that occur over time by continuously monitoring and collecting data after construction.

  • It is needed to classify the kinds of construction and demolition(c&d) debris to 6 catagories of waste concrete, waste asphalt concrete, waste wood, scraps, combustible waste and incombustible waste in order to properly do a separate discharge and to estimate unit generation rate in construction site. Also, in this case, the unit treating cost for mixed wastes should be applied with the unit treating cost for combustible waste. The construction standard materials estimation data is used for basic data for estimating unit generation rate. The mixed wastes in this data should be classified to waste wood, combustible waste and incombustible waste, and their ratio is obtained by using the unit generation rate of Asia Pacific Environment and Management Institute and Seoul Metropolitan Development Institute. The waste amounts generated from newly-built construction can be obtained from multiplying the loss rate by the amount of materials used from construction standard estimation data. Also, those from dismantling construction can be obtained by subtracting waste amount generated during newly-built construction from total input amount of materials in newly-built construction. Those in two cases can be used in construction site. It can be used for estimating the amount generated and establishing the treating plan in the case of setting up the policy of waste management and doing the environment impact assessment.

  • It is required to study systematical on the concrete quality management to extend structure life because rebuilding effect is reducing under present condition of large sized and high stories structure. Concrete, which shows its intensity by hydrating action and a big change in quality according to hot weather and temperature, produces a lot of qualify problem under hot and cold weather Because of each specification and construction plan which does not have basic standard on site, concrete's quality is irregular and makes some defect. As a result, Daegu is turned out to be the longest area after investigating application period and days focused on 8 cities weather information about relationship between hot weather circumstance and construction environment. Therefore, we first surveyed the concrete material in the region and found out the problem of quality nanagement. Then figure out the way of solution. Moreover, we integrated concrete material quality management, which is applied differently to each site, to have equal quality and to reduce defect from construction site. And then, based on various test of construction condition and analysis of quality management item, we suggest effective concrete quality management to make concrete material construction standard guide and plan under hot weather.
