Construction of metro transportation infra is a large-scale project requiring tremendous financial resources. This study suggests operation method to use for rapid transit line existing infra such as Gyeongbu line and spare line capacity following second phase KTX construction. Reviewing various constraints of metro rapid transit operation, we found that the conditions for metro rapid transit operation are already satisfied in Daegu area, just like the case of Gyeongbu line in Seoul Metro area. Also, the evaluation of the economic feasibility of metro rapid transit operation in Daegu area shows that B/C is about 2.4, which implies that there is sufficient economic feasibility. According to the result of sensitivity analysis, the project is economically feasible unless the passenger demand decreases 15% and construction costs increases more than 70%. B/C is evaluated large because the utilization of already exiting infra lowers the initial cost. As one of mass transportation system of large capacity, metro rapid transit can generate significant spillover effect: It will strengthen competitiveness of metro area by connecting cities within the area and by extending one-day life zone of the area, to say nothing of the benefit of improving traffic condition. The construction of metro rapid transit network is necessary for the mass transportation system of Yeongnam area as well as Daegu area, and it may work as a starting point for uniting Daegu and Gyeongbuk and strengthening regional competitiveness.

In this study, Composite beam flexural capacity was investigated experimentally using angle as a shear connector. The main experimental parameters are the size and the spacing of the angle and the overall behavior of before and after composite. Also, the composite beam bending performance when it used with hollow PC slab and the general RC slab was compared. When determining that it synthetically, the flexural capacity of the composite beam with angle shear connector estimated 25% to 55% more strength than the nominal strength. Effects of strength parameters of composite beam by angles shear connector are size and spacing of the angle. As expected, the larger and the narrower spacing of the angles, the more strength the composite beam have. In addition, the performance of the composite beam with a hollow slab was well demonstrated by the test.

To help a owner selecting proper contractors about the specified contract, the Evaluation and Public Announcing System of the Contractor's Construction Capacity has been introduced since 1997. But, the system has been done violence to its original meaning and purpose as time went on. When annually announcing the Contractor's Construction Capacity, especially, there was frequently a large range of opinion on the issues. On that account, MLTM(Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs) has had to make a alteration to improve those and is making efforts for a constructive policy now. The purpose of this paper is to conduct a basis study on the Integrated System after reflecting points to be considered about improvements and the current of the times.

In case of fire spray protection sheath, fire resisting capacity is assessed for each material and installation method according to fire-resistive construction recognition. This study reviews effects of the percentage of water content that exist in fire spray protection sheath during the assess process of fire resisting capacity on fire resisting capacity, and changes of the percentage of water content according to temperature conditions. As a result of exams, as curing temperature is higher and thickness of specimen is thinner, decrease of the percentage of water content becomes significant.

The samll-medium sized cities do not have enough infrastructure for the construction work, especially in terms of concrete supply. This research surveyed the capacity of remicon companies in Gunsan related with production and delivery. Their production capacity is bigger than the daily quantity required, however the delivery capacity is not enough to supply the daily quantity required and it is inevitable to use the several remicon using different admixture. It might cause the harm to the structure. This research studied the way to remove the quality risk when using different admixture at the same time.

In Korea, many buildings are built with underground spaces and cast-in-place pile method is mostly applied in the temporary retaining walls for the underground space construction. A H-shaped steel section is generally embedded in the soldier pile in the C.I.P method. In this study, a new and economical section with high strength steel replacing the H-shaped section was proposed and its flexural capacity was evaluated experimentally. The new section is the concrete-filled composite section with pentagonal thin plate and thick flange plate. Test results showed that the proposed section has an excellent flexural strength and ductility.

In this study, the physical and dynamic characteristics of soil were analyzed by selecting 3 sections as research subjects among road and structure construction sections in the construction site of the Gwangyang ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ industry area, and conducted consolidation analysis and bearing capacity assessments through Midas-GTS according to the construction conditions of the structures and section conditions of reinforcement using stabilized soil. The effects of improving the settlement and bearing capacity according to the improved effects of the stability and sections of reinforcement using stabilized soil in applying the reinforcement method using stabilized soil were analyzed as a solution for improving the settlement and bearing capacity of soft clay for constructing roads and structures. The improvement effects of the settlement and bearing capacity were outstanding when the reinforcement method using stabilized soil to the soft clay was applied. After applying the reinforcement method using stabilized soil, the holdback effect of the consolidation settlement was excellent by decreasing the volume of the consolidation settlement from a minimum of 53% to a maximum of 82%. When the width of the reinforcement using stabilized soil was twice the width of the constructed structure, it was found that the holdback effect of the consolidation settlement ranged from 1% to 7% through the width of reinforcement using stabilized soil. In addition, when applying reinforcement more than 6m in width and 1m in depth using stabilized soil, it was found that the increase in the allowable bearing capacity was 2.3 to 3.3 times more than that before applying the reinforcement, which suggests that the increase in bearing capacity by applying the reinforcement method using stabilized soil was significant.

A number of construction practices, implemented during the design process of a reinforced concrete (RC) structural system, may have significant consequences on the behaviour of the structural system in the case of earthquake loading. Although a number of provisions are imposed by the contemporary Greek national design codes for the seismic design of RC structures, in order to reduce the consequences, the influence of the construction practices on the seismic behaviour of the structural system remains significant. The objective of this work is to perform a comparative study in order to examine the influence of three, often encountered, construction practices namely weak ground storey, short and floating columns and two combinations on the seismic performance of the structural system with respect to the structural capacity and the maximum interstorey drifts in three earthquake hazard levels.

The body of an excavator, one sort of the construction equipment, consists of mainframe part, track frame part, boom part and arm part. The all parts are manufactured in the body welding operation. The scheduling in the body welding operation of a construction equipment manufacturing is to take all the various constraints into consideration. The offset time, due date, daily capacity of operations, daily jig's capacity, precedence relation, outsourcing, alternative resource and all of the shop floor environment should be considered. An APS(Advanced Planning & Scheduling) system is a proper and efficient system in such circumstance. In this paper, we present an APS system, the optimal scheduling system for the construction equipment manufacturing specifically for the body welding operation, using ILOG Solver/Scheduler. ILOG Solver/Scheduler is a general purposed commercial software which supports to find a feasible or optimal solution using object oriented technique and constraints satisfaction programming, given constraints and objectives.
