Differing Site Conditions('DSC') Claims among construction claims are on the increase as a direct result of the steady construction of Social Overhead Capital Facilities initiated by Government. As DSC claims generally became apparent during the intial stage of the construction project, it is necessary to timely review and study the proposal on the prevention of DSC claims because delayed settlement will incur more substantial damages to all parties concerned. This research is focused on the identification and analysis of the causes for DSC claims as applicable to design-build project in public sector and it presents the possible short term, medium and long term proposals on the improvement of causes related with DSC claims. The major results of this research are summarized as follows: 1. Improvement of contractor's tender practice 2. Contractor's division of responsibility on the site survey 3. Improvement of owner's exculpatory clause 4. Flexibility on the adjustment of contract amount The proposals stated above could be useful in resolving the DSC claims between owner and contractors.

Since the recently established obligation to implement safety and health measures for specialized workers as outlined in the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) for nine occupations in January 2020 and five occupations in November 2021, there is a need to verify and inspect the on-site operation of related systems. After a comprehensive fact-finding survey and risk factor analysis, it is necessary to examine the responsibility for on-site safety and preventive measures, along with the roles and responsibilities of specialized workers. Stakeholder analysis is essential to identify the fundamental problems related to the responsibility stipulated in the purpose of OSHA and to explore the entity responsible for implementing safety measures. Therefore, in this paper, we discuss the topic of implementation based on legal standards for on-site safety and preventive measures. Additionally, we develop a role model for appropriate safety measures, outlining the dynamic relationship between those who provide labor and those who provide labor in the context of specialized workers.

This study investigated service quality perception, purchase satisfaction, recommendation intention, and switching intention of fashion consumers according to the types of internet shopping malls. The survey was conducted from February 7 to 21 in 2011, and 294 responses were used in the data analysis. The statistical analysis methods were frequency analysis, factor analysis, reliability analysis, ANOVA, and regression analysis. The result of the service quality perception of internet fashion consumers was classified by site characteristics, reliability, enjoyment, product diversity, responsibility, security, and order convenience. There were significant differences in the site characteristics, reliability, enjoyment, responsibility, and security of service quality perception by the types of internet shopping malls. In addition, the factors of service quality perception that could affect the purchase satisfaction of fashion consumers showed differently according to the types of internet shopping malls. The purchase satisfaction of fashion consumers influenced the recommendation intention in all types of internet shopping malls and the purchase satisfaction influenced the switching intention in fashion specialized internet shopping malls.

The aim of this study is to survey and analyze the safety perception and attitude of the construction managers for the purpose of contributing to the construction industry accident prevention by inducing safety behaviors of managers. The data analysis found that there were significant differences on safety perception and attitude depending on job positions. This survey found that job position and career affect the safety perception and attitude of manager. Further analysis revealed job position has more an effect on it than career. Therefore, in order to improve the safety perception and attitude of managers, it is effective to put managers more responsibility on safety.

Domestic plant construction sites have a tendency to become bigger, more various and complicated. Moreover frequency of industrial incident is increasing due to short project period, coexistence work condition and using heavy construction equipment. Installing safety facilities and safety training contribute to prevent incident. But mostly incident happens due to workers' unsafe action and wrong work method. Technically, it is very difficult for us to closely manage workers preventing incident. Therefore, the role of foreman who ordinarily works together with his workers is considered more important. Specific execution plan was drawn through industrial incident statistics from Ministry of Labor and questionnaire survey to interest parties(supervisor, safety staff and foreman). If foreman has raised sense of belonging and responsibility by conducting practical safety training for his workers, manages job site and receives proper compensation for these roles, it will be expected that it fully influences incident decrease.

Recently, the importance of disaster prevention has emerged as serious accidents have occurred frequently, in which workers died or seriously injured at industrial sites. In response, the government enacted the 'Act on the Punishment of Major Disasters' to strengthen the responsibility, punishment intensity, and regulation of business owners for accidents at the site. In particular, the construction industry accounts for a large proportion of serious accidents, so safety levels need to be raised through on-site management. This study aims to reduce the occurrence of disasters at construction sites and to improve the work efficiency of safety managers. To derive detailed elements of the safety manager's work, domestic and overseas cases were investigated. The derived items were analyzed for the difficulty and preventive effects of the work through a survey of experts, and they will contribute to disaster prevention by presenting tasks to be focused and suggesting ways to improve inefficient tasks.

Risk-based security impact evaluation may be affected by various factors according to numerous combinations of explosive devices, cutting devices, impact vehicles, and specific attack location to consider. Presently, in planning and design phases, designers are still often uncertain of their responsibility, lack of information and training of security. Therefore, designers are still failing to exploit the potential to reduce threats on site. In this study, the concept of security impact assessment is introduced in order to derive the performing design for safety in design phase. For this purpose, a framework for security impact assessment model using risk-based approach for bridge structures is suggested. The suggested model includes of information survey, classification of terror threats, and quantitative estimation of severity and occurrence.

If the participants in construction site safety management perform their duties in accordance with the provisions of the Industrial Safety and Health Act, the burden on safety managers would be minimal. However, the lack of specific work guidelines for each participating entity and the greater responsibility of the safety and health general manager than the management supervisor have resulted in safety managers' workload being increased due to the problem of management supervisors' neglect of safety management. In this study, we conducted a survey of the safety manager's duties and related documents during the construction project initiation, early stages, ongoing work, and disaster occurrence/investigation, and conducted interviews to improve and enhance the division of duties.

The number of accidents is raising every year and severity is also increasing. A lot of studies are interested in the leading indicator such as safety culture or safety audit to reduce accidents. In particular, the studies on safety awareness are actively conducted. However, these studies showed that there was consciousness of scapegoatism which to pass responsibility of accident causes to others regardless of safety awareness. It means that there are probability about overestimating and making light of unsafe condition and act which have to manage and control. Eventually, the direct causes which lead to the fatal accident may be consistently arisen. Nevertheless, researches about consciousness of scapegoatism are shortage. Therefore, this study proposed the means to investigate the relationship between consciousness of scapegoatism and accidents through report from KOSHA and conducts the survey with suggested means. This paper will contribute to prevent accidents by identifying relationship between consciousness of scapegoatism and accidents.
