For Mega foundation, concrete must have high strength and high flowability. Especially in marine environment, concrete durability becomes a significant property. In this study, high durable concrete, under marine environment, was developed. And to estimate its performance, the world's biggest Mock Up test, $4m{\times}4m{\times}4m$ size, was performed.

Mega-Y project is very important for a company to gain a competitive advantage in markets or to achieve drastic change in the internal processes. It stems from the company strategy and annual management goals or key performance measures, and is proceeded by the cross-functional team. This paper presents the success factors and implementation process of the Mega-Y projects. The implementation process is presented in 5 steps, including project selection, cross-functional team building, establishment of the master plan, development and execution of sub-projects, and project completion. A case study on the cost reduction project of aircraft development is presented to help for the practitioners to deploy the implementation process introduced in this paper.

Two individuals of intergeneric hybrids in the crossing of Brassica pekinensis ♀$\times$Raphanus sativus ♂ were obtained, and among the three kinds of plants, Brassica, Raphanus, and F1, comparison on the mega- and microsporogenesis, megagammetophyte formation, and morphological changes in the developing sporangia, etc., were made. Differences between Brassica and Raphanus were observed in the shape of mega- and microsporangia, their changes in development, and the formation of megagametophyte. Sporangia of the F1 plants, until pre-meiotic stage, show intermediate, maternal, paternal, or vigorous inclination, and the difference of these characteristics when compared with those of the parent is slight. Meiotic irregularity resulted from the intergeneric hybridity of F1 plant gives rise to the abnormal mega- and microspore and accompanied abortive female and male gametophytes, bringing about the remarkable differences from its parent in the morphological changes of the developing mega- and microsporangia.

A mega project such as an international airport construction generally consists of a number of sub-projects. Successful completion of this mega project requires project management information system(PMIS) because control and link of a number of component sub-projects is inevitable. Therefore, the role of PMIS should be more emphasized as the project is processed and managed by fast track concept where the design and construction work is performed concurrently. This study investigates and analyzes the present PMIS developed for the construction project of Inchon International airport. Based on this study, we can suggest the direction of PMIS for a mega project management and how to improve this kind of management information system.

Germany is trying to establish 'Metropolregionen' (metropolitan regions) through new regional development policies, in an effort to develop mega economic regions. The paper aims to analyze backgrounds and strategies for developing the 'Metropolregionen' in Germany and to examine policy implications. This research could help finding appropriate regional policies to develop the mega economic regions in Korea.

Mega-shock means a sporadic event such as the earning shock, which occurred by sudden market changes, and it can cause serious problems of profit loss of international construction projects. Therefore, the early response and prevention by analyzing and predicting the Mega-shock is critical for successful project delivery. This research is preliminary study to develop a prediction model that supports market condition analysis and Mega-shock forecasting. To avoid disadvantages of classic statistical approaches that assume the market factors are linear and independent and thus have limitations to explain complex interrelationship among a range of international market factors, the research team explored the Fractal Theory that can explain self-similarity and recursiveness of construction market changes. The research first found out correlation of the major market factors by statistically analyzing time-series data. The research then conducted a base of the Fractal analysis to distinguish features of fractal from data. The outcome will have potential to contribute to building up a foundation of the early shock warning system for the strategic international project management.

Recently, Several Mega project are been performing as a multi-dimensional development project in Korea, but some problem has been revealed about deficiency of the history, experience, and skill. A multi-dimensional development project require the technology which can manage mega project to its specific at the level of program management. predicting schedule and schedule management are the most important for mega project, been performing over several years. This research shows the method of predicting and planning schedule in the early stage as a pre-study on developing a technology of schedule management. First of all, it presents the development of database considering the specific of mega project that can accumulate the history of schedule and search the schedule according to the type of single and multi building. Also it suggests the method of prediction schedule by creating scenarios according to owner requirements and cash flow, affecting schedule management in the early stage, and the shortening possibility of schedule duration using CCPM theory.

Managing mega construction project is a very challenging task due to its large scale and complexity. To deal with the challenge, progress measurement must be estimated reliably and effectively. Many researchers have presented progress measurement methods, but previous studies are limited to single or several types of facilities. Thus, they have difficulties to being applied to mega construction projects that covers multiple facilities. To overcome the limitations, this paper proposes a progress measurement framework considering characteristics of mega construction projects. The framework consists of four phases : development of Work Breakdown Structure, determination of weights of main facilities and sub facilities, and calculation of the integrated progress rate. To validate the proposed approach, a case study of Sejong city in Korea was performed. The results of the case study showed the applicability of the proposed framework and confirmed that it enables to reliably measure progress rate of mega construction projects.

Safe and cheap emulsion explosives have recently replaced the existing CD explosives in order for people to reduce the prime cost and to prevent the safety accidents from happening in construction and civil engineering sites. However, the emulsion explosives have been in reality fared with difficulties in terms of the blasting force when using them in the tunnel constructed in the rock mass composed of hard rock. In this regards, this study is to verify their blasting efficiency and possibility of construction by applying MegaMEX, one of the high performance Emulsion explosives, to the rock mass of hard rock. In terms of their blasting efficiency such as advance ratio and fragmentation, it has turned out that they have overcome the limit of the existing Emulsion explosives and they have had the equivalent level of MegaMITE, one of the GD(Gelatin dynamite) types of explosives while they have been also advantageous to the environmental aspects.

Recently, mega-float offshore structure is studied as one of the effective utilization of the ocean space. And mega-float structure are now being considered for various applications such as floating airports, container yard, offshore cities and so on. This mega-float structure is relatively flexible compared with real floating structures like large ships. when we estimate dynamic responses of these structures in waves, the elastic deformation is important, because vertical dimension is small compared with horizontal. The analysis of the dynamic response as it receives regular wave is studied. The finite element method is used in the analysis of structural section of this model. And the analysis is carried out using the boundary element method int eh fluid division. In order to know the characteristics of the dynamic response of the mega-float structures, effects of wavelength, water depth, and wave direction on dynamic response of the floating structure are studied by use of numerical calculation.
