This paper elaborates the significance of scenario planning in risk management, and presents an integrated approach which takes into account the 'Risk Events' derived from scenario planning for risk prioritisation. This research integrates scenario planning with Risk Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (RFMEA) through examples from construction litigations of project schedule and cost overrun cases as a simplified approach to project risk management. The proposed methodology incorporates scenarios developed from realistic events of dispute and arbitration cases from construction projects, and thereby increasing potential to foresee risks and their effects well in advance. The results from this methodology shall be validated against outcome of survey study conducted by KPMG-PMI (2013) on project schedule and cost overruns that was based on Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) Project Monitoring data for 2012-13.

Construction management services have been adopted for more than a decade and are continuously growing; however, the advantages of utilizing a construction management service are still not quite clear, regardless of many arguments can be made in their favor. The construction manager, as a coordinator, is supposed to smoothly facilitate the project teamwork in order to deliver a profitable and satisfactory project, not only for the owner's interests but also for the success of all project participants. This study has focused on the teamwork supports a construction manager can provide during project operations. This study developed a benchmarking tool to assess the construction manager's role in terms of its project teamwork supports, by utilizing the evaluation model and several case studies. In addition, this study also attempted to set the industry average and higher performance so that both the owner and the construction manager can self-assess, and more importantly, can improve project operation. The actual implementation of the benchmarking tool into on-going projects can allow the construction manager to understand the current operation and to make a better project process through teamwork.

In construction work, there is often a difference between the estimated construction period and the actual construction period. Accordingly, the project may be delayed from the scheduled date, leading to huge losses due to problems such as increased costs during construction. In this way, it is important to calculate the appropriate construction period at the project planning stage in construction work. To solve this problem, we would like to study a model that will increase the accuracy of the scheduled construction period at the project planning stage. This study compared and analyzed linear regression, Lasso regression, Ridge regression among the types of regression analysis to select an appropriate construction period prediction model to secure an appropriate construction period at the project planning stage to reduce problems during construction.

Building information modeling (BIM) can improve to communicate with project participants by early construction involvement (ECI) from the beginning of the project. Therefore, they can minimize design changes and improve design quality and construction. However, because there is insufficient research on the scope and application level of BIM according to project delivery system and project characteristics, construction companies have efficiently not been using the BIM. Therefore, this study intends to conduct basic research as a basis for confirming appropriate BIM application and level according to project delivery system and project characteristics. To do this, we investigated the project delivery system and project characteristics of domestic and foreign projects that have successfully applied BIM, and compare and analyze them based on BIM application and BIM level framework derived from theory reviews and experts. Therefore, this study can be used as a basis for strategically establishing the scope and level of BIM according to project delivery system and project characteristics through the result of this study.

The construction industry has the most safety accidents among domestic industries. Special care must be taken because disasters in the construction industry lead to social problems caused by huge property losses and casualties. As a result of this, there is a growing awareness of disasters occurring in the construction industry, and government departments are tightening regulations on safety management. In particular, the OSHA(Occupational Safety and Health Agency) focuses on the expansion of protection targets and the clarification of responsibility in the full amendment OSHA. As a result, a study that focuses on safety management by client's responsibility is needed. In this study, the project performance capability assessment of construction project management contractors, which is being carried out with uniform assessment criteria without considering the characteristics of the construction project, is considered and all the amendments to the OSHA are considered, and the factors were derived for improvement measures.

Advanced countries have mandated applying BIM in construction projects. Also, Public Procurement Service has planned to mandate applying BIM to all construction project that ordered in PPS from 2016 in KOREA. However, now Seumter that is building administration system is not supported BIM based construction license BIM information from Seumter. Thus, despite the applicant is preparing a BIM model, they do not take advantage of BIM information in Seumter. In previous studies. We developed a BIM based building approval submission system. In this study, we verified the system that developed in previous research. As a result, requirement information input time reduction in Seumter system showed high satisfaction. But there was as low usability because building approval submission system cannot support some information for building approval in seumter. If the system will do utilization and management with the building approval system, the applicant can be using BIM base design document information and saving the time that takes at building approval submission. Study about the system improvement is required for application to building approval system.

International construction contracts to Korean construction companies have been dramatically increased over the 48 years (Contract received worth 65.2 billion dollars in 2013). Especially, the plant construction sector has achieved about 61% among the 65.2 billion dollars. Under this trend, in order to ensure plant construction's competitiveness, 'standard classification' is an important area for systematic management. However, these standards in the plant construction are not widely utilized yet, in comparison with civil and building sectors. Therefore, in this research, a higher level of standard classifications is proposed for various types of power plants from a PMO's (Project Management Office) perspective. This study also provides a comparative analysis outlining different features and common components based on various types of power plants.

A vibration in the building occurs by influences of the facility equipment and the structural system. As the building recently becomes higher and bigger, the vibration in the floor slab is issued. Specially, the vibration with $4{\sim}8Hz$ frequency is harder to control than any other range of frequency. This vibration easily affects human sensibility and often makes the resonance phenomenon by corresponding with the floor slab's natural frequency when people and heavy equipments move. Moreover, the permission regulations for the vibration of the building are established by building's purposes. However, it is not subdivided in detail and sometimes ambiguous to each client. Even though the vibration could cause negative influences in a research building, there is not the vibration criterion for a research building. Therefore, it is necessary to set up its own vibration criterion with the client before building and to keep checking this vibration criterion under the construction. This study proposes the reasonable control methods and the vibration criterion for floor slab's vibration which are adapted to the R4-project. The R4-project is a research building and a high-rise building also. Accordingly, this study could help to the next similar project in the design and the construction phase.

"Environmentally Sound and Sustainable Development (ESSD)" is a key word in recent years. The construction industry, have put a great influence on ergonomic and sustainable environment. Recently, "green building certifications", such as Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and eco-friendly material regulation have been established. With this regard, new construction and aged-housing remodeling projects are required to meet these certification criteria. Multi-housing residents have great concern on eco-product, since many cases are reported that Sick Building Syndrome is caused by toxic substance from building materials. Aged-housing remodeling project is very unique in that building residents are selected prior to design phase. Therefore, the analysis of resident's need for building materials in aged-housing remodeling is relatively easy compared to new building construction. As such, it is very important to analyze their preferences for eco-friendly materials prior to project execution. The purpose of this study is to find the needs of residents and priority of their needs. Based on their needs and priority, this paper provides a new strategy in using environment-friendly materials and maximizing their satisfaction level when aged housing remodeling is constructed. In addition, this paper provide new criteria in selecting new developed environmental materials in remodeling projects for the purpose of improving the safety and health level in construction industry.
