A modular house is a house that is assembled on-site from modularized units. As such units are manufactured in a factory, the construction period is reduced, resources are recycled, and quality is improved. However, the construction technique applied to conventional modular houses has not overcome certain structural restrictions, as it is currently used to build houses less than 4 stories in height, which means that it lacks economic feasibility. For this reason, this research aims to develop a scenario of a construction method for Korean modular housing that can be applied to urban-type housing higher than 12 stories. This research is expected to provide fundamental data necessary for the future development of a construction method for Korean modular housing.

The government has applied the Construction New Excellent Technology Endorsement System to enhance national competitiveness and advance domestic construction technology since 1989. Nevertheless, It's application hasn't been expanded to overall construction industry, due to insufficient verification of the cost effectiveness. So, the government has established the standardized cost estimation guideline to verify the cost effectiveness in 2011. This research classified the technology group based on 27 cases of the cost estimation reports to increase understanding of the cost effectiveness of the new excellent technology. It is expected to contribute establishing reasonable and feasible cost estimation standards.

In this study, the study was conducted to derive the utility of the safety management system applying block chain technology and big data technology to improve the problems of construction sites where concealment and operation of safety accidents occur. If block chain technology and big data technology are applied to construction safety management, transparent data can be collected, and based on the collected data, it is possible to predict accidents that can occur at the construction site and establish countermeasures. It can also be an opportunity to strengthen the safety awareness of construction workers and managers, and can clearly identify the responsibility in the event of a safety accident. This study suggests that the application of the 4th Industrial Revolution technology could be a great opportunity to innovate the construction industry which is less than other industries.

In the field of domestic construction, 3D modeling mainly targets outdoor construction sites, and acquires outdoor spatial information by operating UAVs and UGVs equipped with cameras. 3D modeling of construction sites tends to expand its scope to indoors along with the increasing demand for site monitoring and management through indoor spatial information. In the case of indoors, it is impossible to shoot with a drone after the framework and outer walls of the building are completed, so it is necessary to collect indoor spatial information and 3D modeling using a 360 camera. The purpose of this study is limited to basic research to establish a process that can obtain simple and high-quality indoor 3D modeling results using indoor data collected from 360 cameras.

As a result of analyzing related laws and cases regarding the problems of PF requiring construction companies to guarantee liability for the entire scope of construction, including firefighting facility construction, the law requires repayment ability, and the capital ratio of PF in Korea is 10%. , Since the equity capital ratio of PF in the United States is 30%, it is judged that it is necessary to reduce the dependence of construction companies.

The recent increase of the construction business. reflects tile rapid increase of the amounts of construction wastes caused by new buildings and demolitions. This trend brings about a problem of insufficient aggregate in the construction arena because construction wastes from new buildings are usually reclaimed in the land and it causes environmental pollution and a restriction of exploiting a natural aggregate, brought up by environmental organizations as well. Accordingly, researchers suggest recycled aggregate as a countermeasure of the two problems, however, it's not actually been used in the construction fields. By this study, it'll be feasible to expect to solve the problem of insufficient aggregate and to reduce environmental pollution from waste-reclamation.

The demand on free-form buildings is gradually increasing, but there are several problems such as increased cost and construction duration, and decreased constructability at the construction phase upon construction of a building owing to the difficulty of member production-installation. To solve these problems, a technology to produce FCP using a CNC machine was developed. Basically, it delivers the information on a free-form building designed to the CNC machine, the shapes of RTM and PCM are created using the information delivered and FCP are produced with the RTM and PCM which act as forms. Since the construction duration and project cost are limited on site, the efficiency of FCP production-installation is significant for application of the technology. For it is almost impossible to change the production-installation layout and process once they are set in the construction phase, they should be carefully determined. Before the production-installation layout are established, it is necessary to analyze the factors that influence the duration. Thus, the study intends to analyze influence factors in PCM mold on estimation of the production-installation duration for FCP. According to the analysis of influence factors, a simulation model for estimation of the duration that changes depending on the constraint conditions can be built.

Analytical hierarchy process (AHP) is a potential decision making method in management that can be used in project management as well. Lack of productivity is perhaps the number one problem confronting in the construction industry. There are numerous factors which affect the productivity of a construction project, so it is necessary to find out the critical factors giving birth to productivity. In this paper, construction productivity is taken as example for the demonstration of the AHP application to find out the critical productivity factor in which the Level 1 is taken as selection of critical productivity factor, Level 2 as construction parties and Level 3 as productivity factors group. The outcome of this study is beneficial to the entire constructional professionals for applying the AHP.

With the advent of the recent Fourth Industrial Revolution, efforts are vigorously underway to comprehend the new paradigm of Construction 4.0, following in the footsteps of Industry 4.0, and to establish novel production systems. The necessity and significance of technological advancements in the field of construction automation and robotics, a pivotal component for Construction 4.0, are being emphasized. This paper aims to discuss the concept of construction automation and robotics, encompassing its past, present, and future prospects. Particularly, it reviews the six relevant papers featured in the June 2022 special issue of IJHRB, along with discussions on the integration of cutting-edge ICT technologies and R&D in the realm of automation and robotics. With the progression of ICT technology, the domain of construction automation and robotics is anticipated to play a substantial role in the realization of Construction 4.0 and smart construction through more dynamic convergence in technological development.

Underground building constructions are recently more important because the ratio of underground area is increasing in the huge and high-rise building construction projects. For reducing the total building construction periods, it is required to reduce not only the over-ground structural work periods but also the underground structural work periods. Therefore, this study is proposed the non-supporting system forms for single face walls in underground building construction by one of the methods for reducing the underground structural work periods and investigated the applicability of the non-supporting system forms by analyzing the case-study in civil construction project. In regard of construction duration, the results of analyzing the case-study showed that the non-supporting system forms are better than the euro forms with soldier system for single face walls in underground building construction. In addition, it is showed that the cost of these two forms is similar and usage the working space and safety in non-supporting system forms are better that those of the euro forms with soldier system, too.
