  • Due to the aging workforce in the construction industry in South Korea, the accident rate has been increasing. The cognitive abilities of older workers are closely related to both safety incidents and labor productivity. Therefore, there is a need to improve cognitive abilities through personalized training based on cognitive assessment results, using cognitive training content, in order to enable safe performance in labor-intensive environments. The provided cognitive training content includes concentration, memory, oreintation, attention, and executive functions. Difficulty levels were applied to each content to enhance user engagement and interest. To stimulate interest and encourage active participation of the participants, the difficulty level was automatically adjusted based on feedback from the MMSE-DS results and content measurement data. Based on the accumulated data, individual training scenarios have been set differently to intensively improve insufficient cognitive skills, and cognitive training programs will be developed to reduce safety accidents at construction sites through measured data and research. Through such simple cognitive training, it is expected that the reduction of accidents in the aging construction workforce can lead to a decrease in the social costs associated with prolonged construction periods caused by accidents.

  • 2014년 기준 29만명의 근로자가 전체 1조 3천억원의 임금체불을 당하는 것으로 나타났으며 특히 노동집약적 산업인 건설산업의 특성상 임금체불로 인한 부작용이 심각한 실정이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 임금체불 해소를 위한 연구는 근로자의 인식을 배제한체 임금체불 해소제도 개선에 주안점을 두고 이루어 지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 임금체불 해소를 위하여 근로자의 인식에 기반하여 임금체불 해소절차에 대한 실효성을 분석하고 근로자들의 인식을 파악하고자 한다. 연구 결과 전체 근로자 및 관리자의 30% 이상이 임금체불 해소절차 및 해소제도에 대하여 전혀 인식하지 못하고 있었으며 연구체불 해소를 위한 제도 또한 많은 개선이 필요한 것으로 나타났다.

  • 현장에서 수행되는 대부분의 공사는 다수의 공종과 다양한 협력업체가 공사를 진행해 나간다. 그러므로 투입노무자 및 자원의 관리 상 변수의 발생이 많아 공사정보관리에 어려운 점이 많다. 이러한 현장공사의 효율적인 관리를 위해서 다양한 공사정보 관리 시스템 들이 제시되고 있으나, 시공업체 중심의 시스템 관리와 협력 업체의 참여도 및 이해도 부족과 영세로 인한 적용 어려움이 문제점으로 나타나고 있다. 또한 현장공사관리에 기초자료로 제공되는 작업일보의 정보들을 수집/분석/관리하는데 상당한 시간과 인력이 소모되고, 이동시 정보손실, 수 작업에 의한 정보의 왜곡 및 신뢰성 저하 등등 다양한 문제점이 나타나고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 기존 협력업체가 작성하는 작업일보의 기능 및 문제점을 분석하고, 작업일보내의 생산성 정보의 흐름 및 생산성 향상 요인을 분석하여, 작업일보의 작성프로세스를 개선하는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. 더 나아가, 협력업체 중심의 정보입력 및 관리를 통한 공사의 생산성을 향상시킬 수 있는 개선된 작업일보 시스템의 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

  • Change is inevitable and is a reality of construction projects. Most construction contracts include change clauses and allowing contractors an equitable adjustment to the contract price and duration caused by change. However, the actions of a contractor can cause a loss of productivity and furthermore can result in disruption of the whole project because of a cumulative or ripple effect. Because of its complicated nature, it becomes a complex issue to determine the cumulative impact (ripple effect) caused by single or multiple change orders. Furthermore, owners and contractors do not always agree on the adjusted contract price for the cumulative impact of the changes. A number of studies have attempted to quantify the impact of change orders on project costs and schedule. Many of these attempted to develop regression models to quantify the loss. However, regression analysis has shortcomings in dealing with many qualitative or noisy input data. This study develops ANN models to classify and quantify the labor productivity losses that are caused by the cumulative impact of change orders. The results show that ANN models give significantly improved performance compared to traditional statistical models.

  • 국내 건설산업에서 생산성 정보는 중요성과 그 기능에도 불구하고 생산성 데이터의 수집 및 분석 방법이 체계화되어 있지 못하다. 또한 생산성 관리는 대부분 현장관리자의 경험과 직관에 의존하고 있으며 생산성 데이터를 공사계획 및 관리에 적극 활용하지 못하고 있는 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 공동주택 마감공사의 생산성 예측 및 생산성 영향요인을 분석할 수 있는 기반을 마련하기 위해 단위작업별 생산성 관련 데이터를 수집하여 딥러닝 기반의 생산성 예측모델을 개발하고자 한다. 연구결과인 딥러닝 기반의 공동주택 단위작업별 생산성 예측모델은 신뢰할 수 있는 생산성 정보 데이터에 딥러닝을 적용하여 향후 데이터가 축적될수록 발전되는 기술로 공동주택 프로젝트 관리시스템의 기본 모듈이 될 수 있다. 또한 과거 유사한 프로젝트의 생산성 데이터를 통한 개산견적, 공정계획을 위한 작업일수 산정, 투입인원 산정 등과 같은 프로젝트 엔지니어링 과정에 활용 가능하며 공사 진행 중 예측과 다른 생산성 발견 시 원인 분석에 용이하여 신속한 대응 및 향후 예방이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

  • The attention in construction Automation is getting higher since it could be the answer to the lack of skilled labor by decrease in construction population and aging which adversely affects productivity and quality in the construction site. We are on the way to develop a construction automation system adequate for domestic circumstances in Korea; it is called RCA(Robotic-crane based Construction Automation)system. Climbing hydraulic robots system is a part of RCA system and makes Construction factory(CF) climb through the guide rail on the core wall. The safety of climbing hydraulic robots system is at issue due to the overloaded weight of CF. Preventing this issue, present study did the design verification through the structural analysis and the simulation. Mock-up test also was done to analyze the drive performance of climbing hydraulic robots system.

  • In recent years, construction projects have been forced to cope with lack of skilled labor and increasing hazard circumstance of human operations. A construction robotic system has been frequently accomplished as one alterative for overcoming these difficulties in increasing construction quality, enhancing productivity, and improving safety. However, while the complexity of such a system increases, there are few ways to carry out an assessment of the system. This paper introduces a knowledge-based multi-criteria decision-making process to assist decision makers in systematically evaluating an automated system for a given project and quantifying its system performance index. The model employs linguistic terms and fuzzy numbers in attempts to deal with the vagueness inherent in experts' or decision makers' subjective opinions, considering the contribution resulted from their knowledge on a decision problem. As an illustrative case, the system, called Robotic-based Construction Automation, for constructing steel erection of high-rise buildings was applied into this model. The results show the model's capacities and imply the application to other extended types of construction robotic systems.

  • In recent years, a mm1ber of construction robots have been developed, but few practical examples can be found on construction sites today. Nevertheless, automation and robotics are proposed as apparent solutions to problems in productivity, quality, safety, and skilled-labor availability in future construction industry. Since the early 2000s, there has been growing interest in construction automation and robotics in Korea, and significant progresses have also been made. This paper mainly describes the needs of research and development program to introduce robots on construction sites, and primary outcomes which are developed in domestic construction industry. Essential technologies required for the development of construction robots, future prospects of the technology advances, and several suggestions are also presented in this paper.
