In reinforced concrete constructions, reinforcing bar generates more CO₂ per unit weight than other construction materials. In particular, cutting and bending rebar is the main source of rebar waste in the construction industry. Rebar-cutting waste is inevitable during the construction of a reinforced concrete structure since the rebar is not manufactured as designed. Large amounts of waste can be avoided by utilizing optimal cutting patterns and schedules. This research provides a fundamental analysis of the automatic calculation of column rebar length using BIM-based shape codes to minimize cutting waste to near zero. By employing this approach in practice, it is possible to minimize the rate of rebar-cutting waste, reduce costs, shorten construction duration, and reduce CO₂ emissions. In addition, the development of this research will serve as a clue for the development of BIM-based rebar layout automation algorithms.

The construction industry is hard to apply to the statistical methodology of 6-sigma. For example, it is hard to verification of fraction defective through quantity production. So, in this research the proposed approach for effective process of technology development through establish of innovative methodology reflecting constructional characteristics. Few studies have progressed in construction industry, but there are so many examples using 6-sigma for applying to customer needs at the product development or process improvement in manufacturing business. So this research proposed the design methodology using QFD of 6-sigma and TRIZ.

The domestic construction market is recently daunted because of the sustainable real estate regulation policy by the government. In other aspect, after the WTO(World Trade Organization)system opened overseas construction is growing continuously with grow of international economy and opening of market through world. Therefor needs to establish strategy on expansion or over seas construction competitive power. The purpose of this research is expansion on over seas construction competitive power by suggesting project cost guarantee methods to Owner and cost guarantee methods are Official Development Assistance(ODA). Accordingly, this research analyzed a developed $country^{\circ}{\phi}s$ ODA and domestic ODA. Moreover, survey to Expert of related field about over seas construction and ODA for identified problems. Especially, based on the results it intends to analyzed domestic ODA competitive power and improve strategy to competitive power of receive an order on over seas construction.

Technology roadmapping is one of the widely used technology planning methodologies. Using a technology roadmap, the researchers can increase the possibility of the project success by systematic management of research contents, budgets, and commercialization strategies. Currently, Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs has a plan to increase the research fund to improve the construction industry. As a result, the number of long term research projects with more than five years of research period, is increasing. This entails the need for a methodology for the systematic planning and management of research. However, the construction industry has the characteristics that the research results should ultimately be implemented in an outdoor environment. Through processes of diverse literature reviews, questionnaire-based survey, and pilot research, this paper presents a systematic procedure for the development of construction technology roadmaps, which can consider the unique nature of the construction industry. Based on the procedure, a technology roadmap for intelligent construction monitoring is also developed.

Increasing wages and decreasing skilled labors are problems awaiting solution. The development of automatic technologies contributes to accelerating the one of construction automation. Thus, this study is to suggest the way to develop the automated building construction system base on one performed in Japan in order to solve urgent problems of construction industry in Korea. Therefore interviews and questionnaires were performed based on experts who work for the automated building construction system field and analyzed through analytic hierarchy process. In doing so, it was the most important factor to develop a branch of automatic, mechanical or machine technologies for the automated building construction system. Especially the study indicated the importance of the technologies to substitute skilled labors such as a robot. This research could contribute to developing the automated building construction which is very unique and suitable for construction industry in Korea.

Evaluating infrastructure's impact on social equity is an emerging area of research in transportation construction engineering. Transportation agencies have been trying to include sustainable development. The three components of sustainable development are environmental protection, social equity, and economic development. Although social equity is one of the essential components of sustainable development, most transportation agencies do not consider this component. The research publications in this area are limited. The principal objective of this study is to synthesize existing studies related to the impact of transportation infrastructures on social equity. This study will also identify social equity indicators, the correlation between social equity and transportation infrastructures and their services, and the impact of transportation infrastructures' on social equity. In addition, this study will identify current issues of social equity and will provide some recommendations. This synthesis study revealed that transportation infrastructures impacted social equity in various ways. Some effects are positive, such as new job creation on the market. Other effects are adverse, such as diminishing socio-economic and environmental degradation. Studies also showed that the current practices evaluated infrastructures' impact on a case-by-case basis. The authors recommend adopting a multi-disciplinary holistic for assessing infrastructure's effects on social equity. The multi-disciplinary fields of study include civil engineers, construction engineers/managers, public policy researchers, environmentalists, and social scientists.

Three cases of supertall connected structures are presented and each of them represents a quite style. The first case is a strong-connected structure. The coupling function of towers and connector contributes a lot to the structural stiffness and stability. Its special construction scheme had great impact on the construction quality and the structural safety, and must be accurately considered. For the second case which is a weak-connected structure, the influences of different connecting modes to the structural dynamic characteristic were explained. Then the combined bearings were proposed to achieve the design presume. In the third case which represents the multi-supported structures, the structural distinctive mechanical properties were discussed. For the structural state during construction process is quite different from that in final service condition, two construction procedures were simulated to get an optimal one. Although there are great challenges to designers, the advantages of the supertall connected buildings are obvious. Further work is needed in this area to adapt to the development of future cities.

In Korea, the productivity of the construction industry is evaluated at a very low level, and the utilization of the elemental technology of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is also very low compared to other industries. In order to solve this problematic situation, it is necessary to identify the demand for technology improvement in the specialty construction industry that is directly in charge of construction in projects. Therefore, this study aims to investigate improving construction competitiveness and the demand for technology improvement in Korea's specialty construction industry. First, the concept and status of classification of the specialized construction industry were identified, and a questionnaire was organized. Second, a survey was conducted on experts construction experts, and the demand for technical improvement of the specialty construction industry was derived by applying AHP and cluster analysis. The results of this study will serve as a practical reference for policy development, R&D direction, and technology development roadmap to enhance construction competitiveness in the future, and ultimately will help to present directions to improve the construction competitiveness of the construction industry.
