The purpose of this study is to analyze collaborative relationship between members of a building construction organization. For the analysis of collaborative relationship, this researcher collected data by conducting a questionnaire survey with members of three large building construction organizations for apartment housing. The analyzed contents of collaborative relationship were the 'frequency of communication between organizational members' and their 'reliability'. According to the analysis of communication network, construction managers had low frequency of communication, whereas those responsible for each area, like construction deputy managers, had high frequency of communication. It indicates that middle managers are at the center of communication related to construction work in construction organizations. According to the analysis of reliability network, construction managers showed highest reliability, and employees at the top level in an organizational map also showed high reliability. Since they generally have a lot of experience, are some older of age, and assume responsibility for work, they are considered to receive reliability from other organizational members. This study proved that it was possible to numerically express reliability of organizational members, which is an abstract concept, and analyze it. Therefore, it is expected that the analysis result will highly be likely to be used in the area of construction management.

Recently the diversification of construction market and the continuous reduction of construction amount are raising the need of alternative delivery method in the construction industry. The foreign advanced companies actively adopted the CM at Risk delivery method where they perform the service of agent CM in the design phase, and agree GMP(Guaranteed Maximum Price) with the client at the time of 50~80% completion of design. Even in Korea they began to apply that method to pilot projects. In CM at Risk, through the early participation of builder, the level of design completion can be improved and the change order and construction period delay can be minimized. On the other hand, GMP is usually calculated when the design is about 80% complete, so there is uncertainty in the construction cost. Therefore, in this research, the increased amounts of construction cost are analyzed in a number of public construction projects, and GMP calculation process is proposed using the analysis results and CBR(Case-Based Reasoning) technique to reduce the construction cost increase in the construction phase.

Despite various government and institutional movements to promote implementation of smart construction, the utilization of smart technologies in the construction industry is still low compared to other industries. To take a systemic look at the impediments in the implementation of smart construction, this study identifies and analyzes the challenging factors of smart construction within the Korean construction industry. Through content analysis of relevant literature, including official documents, research reports, databases, 19 challenging factors have been identified. The intricate relationships among these challenging factors have been examined based on a hierarchy structure established by using the Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) approach. Furthermore, factors are classified into four distinct clusters by using the MICMAC analysis: driving factors, dependent factors, autonomous factors, and linkage factors. This classification delineates the interrelationships among the challenging factors and identifies the key factors that drive the system, which is different from that in traditional studies where the relative importance is generally given between factors. The findings will provide crucial information for policy designers and top-level authorities, indicating which challenging factors to prioritize limited resources and efforts. It will aid in formulating effective policies, standards, and regulations to foster the implementation of smart construction in the Korean construction industry.

The application of BIM that can manage and integrate information generated during the entire life cycle of buildings in domestic and overseas construction projects is becoming active. When BIM is utilized in the construction phase, it can shorten the construction period, reduce the occurrence of reworks and improve collaboration capability. However, there are limitations in applying BIM to the construction phase due to the insufficient definition level of domestic BIM guidelines and inadequate design standards. In this regard, this study developed BIM model requirements checklist for the application of BIM in the construction phase. To develop the checklists, 21 domestic and overseas BIM guidelines, three public construction projects and four private construction projects to which construction BIM was applied, were analyzed. Based on the guidelines and cases, a total of 62 construction BIM model requirements (31 model objects and 31 attribute rules) and proposed construction BIM model requirement checklists by dividing the 61 requirements according to the requirement and purpose for utilization were identified. It is expected that the practical applications of the checklists proposed in this study will improve the level of BIM model in construction phase. In addition, this study has its significance as a basic research that can be used in the development of standardized guidelines for BIM model in construction phase from academic aspects.

The construction phase of the construction project needs a large scale of manpower, materials and equipment. Among them, manpower is a core part for project construction. These manpower are divided into two groups. The first is the management group that manages the construction, and the second is the site technician manpower for construction work. Recently, construction company has suffering due to the insufficient supply of technician labor. Accordingly, this study will perform an empirical analysis about the construction technician. To do this, we surveyed related research trends and conducted surveys on the satisfaction of the construction technician. The result, satisfaction with pay and insurance was relatively low compared to other items. Therefore, this study were conducted in-depth interviews with technician managers in order to analyze the cause. In addition, case analysis was conducted to analyze actual working conditions. As a result, it was analyzed that the wage level and insurance system of construction technician were considerably stable compared to the manufacturing industry. The result of this study is expected to contribute to the activation of excellent technician cultivation through the change of recognition about construction technician.
