SOC(Social Overhead Capital) projects such as road, power plant, airport or telecommunication facility construction require a large scale of cost, a long period of time and management of a number of sub-contractors. So systematic and efficient management tool in SOC projects is inevitable. Information system provides a valuable tool which can integrate and manage the large volume of information for SOC projects. This study investigates and analyzes the information system of nuclear power plant construction project. Based on this study, we can suggest the direction for designing information system for SOC projects.

The absence of systematic project procedures in the domestic SOC projects has caused many problems. Therefore, it has been raised the needs for the effective project management of the projects which helps the participants to have systematic procedures at each phase of the SOC projects. The purpose of this research is to build the current model of procurement management process for the airport facilities and to derive inherent problems, and the building direction of the effective procurement management is suggested for the future research. The result of this research could be used for delivering the effective SOC projects and for establishing interrelationships between procurement and other phases of the projects for the integrated project management. The procurement process of the Inchon International Airport was investigated and the as-is model was built. Through the analysis of the as-is model, and the questionnaires and the interviews with the participants of the SOC projects, the problems of the current procurement process has been derived.

As the Korean economy went into a recession because of the global financial crisis in 2008, in order to vitalize the Korean economy, the government raised SOC budget and made its execution earlier. To prevent increases in budget for the government financial investment projects, the government controlled the project cost of SOC construction projects by enacting 'Guideline for total project cost management' in 1994 and complementing the relevant system. However, different from government intention, the total project cost of SOC projects were increased drastically. Hence, the government authorities and research institutions insisted the necessity of supplementation and improvement for the total project cost management system. This research is to provide the improvement for the total project cost management system of domestic SOC projects. In this research, As-Is Model was adjusted considering status of the total project cost management in the current SOC projects. Also the cost management of construction projects between domestic and other developed countries was studied, analyzed and compared. Based on the above, problems related to total project cost management of domestic SOC projects were found out and an improved total project cost management was provided to improve these problems.

In Korea, demand for the Social Overhead Capital(SOC) projects has tremendously increased since 1970's and is expected to keep growing to support national economic development as well as to enhance the quality of life. In these projects, project planning and feasibility study phase is one of the most critical phases because it determines the success of later phases. However, we have experienced trial and errors repeatedly such as cost overruns and schedule delays in many of the SOC projects. These problems can be prevented or at least expected in the earlier phase and it requires well-developed and standardized project planning process and systems before design, procurement, and construction phases begin. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to investigate current problems in this phase and provide framework for a model for the project planning management which can be used for the SOC projects to insure the whole project success.

SOC projects entail inherently large-scale works, and need much capital and time. Because of these features, the design activities in SOC projects are performed through a complicated process involving many organizations. A great deal of information is generated and vanished during the process, and the communication among the related organizations plays a very important role in successful fulfillment of SOC projects. But, because the method of information communication has not yet systematically established, there are many difficulties in sharing information. This study aims at establishing the design interface management model which enables the participants to effectively share the information during the design phase. The contents of the study include (1) Restructuring performance organization, (2) A decision making method in collaborative design through partnering with experts, (3) A method to develop Open Design Information Integrated model using Standardization(ODIIS).

"Master Plan of Cadastral Resurvey Project" aims to put the governmental budget of 1.3 trillion Won into the cadastral resurvey project until 2030 that reflects the preliminary feasibility study, conducted by government at 2012. The cadastral Resurvey, which takes 78.8% of the expenses in the project, has to take an critical role for earning the most effective results from the project. The cadastral confirmation surveying take up almost 13% of the project and is controlled under the areal SOC(Social Overhead Capital) projects in current "Master Plan of Cadastral Resurvey Project". Also, the affiliations of cadastral resurvey and linear SOC projects are expected to bring advanced results, although those are excluded from cadastral confirmation surveying. For linear SOC projects, the land division survey is conducted by using boundary stakes in boundary survey, while the cadastral resurvey is conducted within the SOC project area, after the completion of the project. In this study, we could conclude that cadastral resurvey results with the world geodetic system from boundary survey at the point of land division could be produced without the duplication of land division and cadastral resurvey. As a result, the expected benefits are 73,877 parcels and 4,078 million won, annually.

Development of social overhead capital (SOC) requires huge national finance, and performance issues such as cost-efficiency, safety, and environment have been constantly raised. However, currently each construction client has limited access to its own projects' performance without analytic methodology for industry-level comparisons and benchmarking for improvement. To overcome this problem, this study proposes a comprehensive performance analysis framework for post-evaluation of large-scale construction projects. To this end, this study performed a case study of advanced countries (the U.S., the U.K. and Japan) and consultation with related experts to develop a tailored performance analysis framework for the Post- Construction Evaluation and Management system in Korea. The developed framework covers three categories (project performance, project efficiency, and ripple effect), nine areas (cost, schedule, change, safety, quality, demand, benefit-cost ratio, civil complaint, and defect), and 31 detailed metrics. Using industry-level project performance database and statistical techniques, the proposed framework can be used not only to diagnose excellent and unsatisfactory performance areas for completed construction projects, but also to provide reference data for future similar projects. This study can contribute to the improvement of clients' performance management practices and effectiveness of construction projects.

The purpose of this study is to extract deficiency areas as basic data of policies and projects in the future Living SOC introduction and planning. In order to extract living SOC deficient areas, accessibility data for living SOC and density data for main users by facility were overlapped, focusing on the living SOC indicators presented in the National Urban Regeneration Basic Policy. According to the analysis of accessibility of the Iksan-si Living SOC, the gap between deficiency in urban and township areas was large in common with the accessibility of the village and local base units. As a result of overlapping life SOC accessibility data and density data analysis of the main users by facility, areas where accessibility is weak but not inhabited by the main users of each facility were extracted. It is meaningful that more accurate deficient areas can be extracted by simultaneously utilizing the density distribution of the main users, rather than simply accessing the facilities.

The private investment on the SOC facilities is a worldwide tendency since it can supplement the insufficient investment of public finance in the construction of infrastructures. Alter the formulation of private investment law, private sector's investment on roads, harbors and environmental facilities are being progressed considerably. However, railway construction by private sector is not active comparing to the former areas because of huge investment for construction but relatively low and unpredictable benefit in operation. This paper reviews the financial, social and institutional aspects on the private investment for SOC projects, especially railway projects. Also, this paper tries to find the desirable way to expedite the private investment on railway project,. Conclusively, the paper propose that the private sector in railway projects is better constituted with financial investor and the private financing could be. activated and settled if a stable minimum benefit on their investment being ensured institutionally, for example, by BTL.

The purpose of this study is to secure reasonable transportation infrastructure stock for enhancing national competitiveness in Korea. National competitiveness may be defined as a country's overall capacity to create the most effective social structure, institutions and policies that allow her company within the national boundary to be more competitive in the world market. If Korea's transportation infrastructure stock is not sufficient and a connection among transportation facilities is not efficient, we should pay the social and economic cost. As a result, we worry that national competitiveness may drop. Some methods to maintain or to increase the national investment for transportation infrastructure that are suggested from this study are as follows: Firstly, we need to operate the Spcial Account for Traffic Facilities. Secondly, the investment should be focused on the facilities and districts in needs. Thirdly, PFI (private finance initiative) policy should be aimed at investing for the highly economic-valued projects.
