For the design of underpass structures, -1.0m(G.L) ground water level guideline for the design of railway, subway, utility tunnel etc, is still being used in Korea. As a result, the underpass structure can be forced by buoyancy, and therefore the in-situ buoyancy anchor method is usually being applied to prevent the uplifting force. For the Yeongjongdo sky city project, the drainage method was applied to remove the buoyancy force. In this study we estimate the efficiency and safety of the applied design and propose the detailed guidelines for standard design and maintenance of the guided drainage technique. Especially, the auxiliary pumping well was operated to maintain the ground water level around the underpass. In the study site, the applied guided drainage method has advantages in both engineering and economic aspects.

Cost Estimate for alternative in design phase of construction become criterion for profitability and feasibility analysis of projects. Initial design phase performed schematic estimate based on similar data in the past. The quantity take-off according to estimators experience and calculation method are occurred different or missing. IT (Information Technology) technology evolution has been promoting BIM technology in construction. It is changing the paradigm of planning, design, construction and maintenance phase throughout the construction project. A number of studies have been attempted to apply BIM technology in the construction. In this paper, we propose schematic estimation framework linking standard format IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) and estimate related knowledge. As a result, it performs a cost prediction for decision-making in the design phase, and expected to overcome the limitations of previous studies. In addition, it is possible actively coping with changes.

This study examines the design intent and the construction background of the UNESCO House in Korea planned in the 1950s, with a focus on the initial plans of the House by Kuzosa Architects & Engineers in 1959. To this day, the House has been evaluated as a representative example of an office building in the 1960s, and an early case of introducing curtain walls in Korea. However, only its technical characteristics have been explored with less emphasis on further research data. This study attempts to demonstrate the social and cultural expectations and the demands of the construction of the House by examining the documents produced at the time and the initial plan. This study also highlights the fact that the House was the first project of the architect Pai Ki Hyung to realize high-rise reinforced concrete construction in Seoul's dense center. In the 1950s, the House was planned as a modern building with a complex of various cultural facilities and offices due to the character of activities of the Commission, and the lack of public cultural facilities in Korea. The plan of the Kuzosa Architects & Engineers was selected through a design competition held in 1959. The House was completed in 1967, which took about eight years from planning to completion with design modification in the 1960s. The initial plan submitted before the design modification shows that Pai used the vocabulary and logic of modern architecture and planned the House not as a simple office building but as a complex cultural facility.

One of the methods which can enhance the efficiency of railroad network is construction of interconnection branch line for several route to share one railway. In Korea, this method already has been implemented or excuted as project level. This study suggests a network design model and a solution algorithm to choice most proper site to construction it and determine the priority of branch lines which can be considered in planning level, not project level. The model is a non-linear optimization program which minimize total cost-construction cost, operating cost and passengers' travel cost. The decision variables are a binary variable to explain whether construction or not and its direction and a integer variable of the frequencies of travel routes. The solution algorithm-problem solution and route choice and also the result of implementation for example network are suggested. This result can be more advanced after application in real network and calibration of parameters.

Successful project planning relies on a good estimation of the manpower required to complete a project in addition to the schedule options that may be available. Existing software manpower estimation models present the total manpower and instantaneous manpower distribution for the software life cycle. Putnam's Rayleigh and Phillai et al.'s Gamma models present a model with assumption that the manpower is needed at the system delivery. This means that 40 percent of total manpower is applied at the software development, and the other 60% is applied during maintenance phase. However Warburton observes the manpower is needed during development phase with the peak at the completion of the software design phase. So, the existing models were not appropriate to be applied to practical projects. This paper suggests the Sigmoid model which does not consider the point of manpower peak to fix the problem above. The suggested model showed some improvement when practical data was applied. Therefore, the Sigmoid model can be used as alternative of Rayleigh and Gamma model to estimate distribution of manpower during software development phas.

Actual construction data are unsystematically handled and uselessly hoarded after completion of the project although actual construction data can be applied to the various works of the future projects. Many researches have been carried out by several engineers and scholars of construction firms and research institutes, but the level of the application is not plausible yet. The objective of this paper is to propose a web-based data model and application system for commercial buildings in order to enhance the usability of the actual construction data on line. The principal factors of commercial building project data and the user$^{\circ}{\phi}s$ requirements in various areas, such as planning, design, procurement and construction and so on are analyzed to implement the database structure of the proposed system. The application of resource Information focused on cost, manpower, equipment is included in the system, which is expected to enhances the usability of actual database application system compared with other researches proposed so far.

Appropriate selection of lifting equipments for a high-rise building construction project is one of the important factors to the project's success. Proper position of a tower crane on a construction site is so important to be determined by an expert or an experienced construction manager who draws working range of a tower crane and moves it over 2D(dimensional) site layout plan. 3D CAD, BIM, and virtual reality are is used for building design and construction, but it is not usual to use them for temporary facility planning or selection of a tower crane. This study proposes a suitable method to use augmented reality to select proper position of tower cranes. An augmented reality prototype is implemented by Vuforia and Unity 3D on a smart device to verify the practicability of the proposed method. The prototype application installed on a smart device shows several tower cranes on different markers in a real architectural drawing to locate the proper tower crane.

Expressways are often upgraded by widening the lanes and/or by reshaping the roads to be more linear for faster travel time. However, during the process of improving the route of the expressways, the areas where the old expressways used to be are often unused and abandoned. When these neglected sites are left alone, they often become dump sites causing pollution and impacting the surrounding environment. Therefore, it is important to restore the abandoned expressway sites to its full natural beauty. In this study, the abandoned expressway at the Soksa interchange in Pyungchang county, located in Kangwon province was studied for establishing the model of ecological restoration project. Considering the characteristics of the site, the target flora species was chosen to be Quercus species and the target fauna species as amphibians. After the target species were carefully chosen, each species' habitat requirements were studied in order to figure out the appropriate methods toward habitat restoration specifically for these species. In addition, to determine the most efficient method toward restoration of abandoned expressways, the study utilized the planting hole techniques, the crack techniques, and the colonization techniques. In terms of the spatial organization, public education program is incorporated at the main entrance area and the programs for experimenting, and developing vegetation and habitat restoration techniques are placed in the vicinity. In the master plan-to provide natural ecosystem at the site-ASCON (asphalt concrete) was removed first, then plans for restoration including species' habitat restoration were established. Furthermore, the project included plans for improving water quality polluted through non-point source considering the surrounding nearby road and farm lands. Finally, the study established a planning process that will experimentally apply to the abandoned expressway restoration method. In the future, there will be a continuous monitoring of the methods applied to verify if the restoration methods are effective. Also, new restoration techniques should be available according to a variety of abandoned expressways' characteristics.

Being dealt in Alfred Weber's Theory of the location of Industries, a lot of economic benefits can be obtained through aggregation and clustering of industrial facilities, which derived to the development of industrial complexes in Korea. However, with the IMF economic crisis as well as various institutional changes, the framework of aggregation and clustering of industries is broken, which led to individual developments that took place without any consideration of surrounding industries. For reformation of these condition of industrial complexes, national government-led regeneration projects are being carried out currently. However, national government-led projects mainly focus on profitable projects such as officetel and hotel that are irrelevant to exist composition of industrial complexes which is usually manufacturing base industries and are unable to solve the fundamental problems of industrial complexes. Thus, a necessity of industry clustering is deduced through case analysis of actual private-led manufacturing industry cluster with governance and analysis of benefits on financial, spatial and environmental aspects. In addition, implications on the necessity follow base on factorial analysis on the benefit of clustering development than individual development as well as analysis on the measures taken for successful clustering.
