International contractors must consider the substantial risks related to unexpected foreign exchange fluctuation incurred by conducting their business and using foreign currencies in foreign countries. Most international contractors attempt to minimize foreign exchange exposure within a manageable range because it may influence the company's fundamental financial structure, reduce market value or profit margins, or disrupt ongoing and future projects. This research provides a qualitative study of existing foreign exchange exposure (transaction, operation, and translation exposure) and current & effective foreign exchange risk management in American and Korean international contractors, as they represent both new and long-time members of the global construction market. Finally, recommendations of techniques for new and existing international contractors to minimize and better manage foreign exchange risk will be offered.

Accurate initial cost estimates are essential to effective management of construction projects where many decisions are made in the course of project management by referencing the estimates. In practice, the initial estimates are frequently derived from historical actual cost data, for which standard distribution-based techniques are widely applied in the construction industry to account for risk associated with the estimates. This approach assumes the same probability distribution of estimate errors for any selected estimates. This assumption, however, is not always satisfied. In order to account for the probabilistic nature of estimate errors, an alternative method for measuring the risk associated with a selected initial estimate is developed by applying the Bayesian probability approach. An application example include demonstrates how the method is implemented. A hypothesis test is conducted to reveal the robustness of the Bayesian probability model. The method is envisioned to effectively complement cost estimating methods that are currently in use by providing benefits as follows: (1) it effectively accounts for the probabilistic nature of errors in estimates; (2) it is easy to implement by using historical estimates and actual costs that are readily available in most construction companies; and (3) it minimizes subjective judgment by using quantitative data only.

Change orders represent one of the largest sources of cost growth on construction projects, but an efficient change management control system can help the projects steer clear of the constant construction changes. This study was performed to achieve a better understanding of all changes and to develop a new set of Best Practices using process mapping techniques. The project data for this research were collected from case studies of aviation projects implemented in Houston, Texas at Bush Intercontinental Airport. The findings and contributions of this research should help owners and project managers determine and identify major causes that impact project budget and schedule and implement solutions prior to them surfacing.

BIM(Building Information Modeling)은 원칙적으로 건설 전 생애주기에 걸쳐 활용되어야 그 효과를 극대화 할 수 있으나, 아직은 계획 및 설계단계에 비하여 공사단계에서는 그 활용도가 상당히 낮은 수준이었다. 최근 대형 국책사업이 발주, 시공되면서 효율적인 공사관리를 위한 방법으로 3D 성과품 검토나 4D 공정관리 등 BIM기법 중 일부가 도입되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 토목시설물의 공사단계에서 BIM 활용방안에 대하여 제시하였다. 토목공사의 종류별, 관리 분야별 BIM 활용방안에 대하여 논의하고, 서울 지하철 919공구에 실제로 적용하여 그 효용성에 대하여 분석하였다. 특히, 현장에 구축된 BIM 기반의 웹 공사관리 시스템은 공사중, 현장과 본사를 비롯해 발주처와 감리단 등 다수의 공사 주체들이 BIM을 보다 효과적으로 사용하도록 함으로써, BIM의 공사단계 활용성을 높일 뿐만 아니라 유지관리 단계까지 확장하여 이용될 수 있다.

초고층$\cdot$대형 현장은 일반 현장관리 방법과는 달리 경험에 의한 의사결정에는 한계가 있다. 특히 도심지 고층 공사의 경우 대지의 여유 공간이 협소하여, 자재적치와 수평 동선을 위한 공간의 확보가 용이하지 않다. 이러한 초대형 프로젝트를 수행하기 위해서는 기존 경험에 의존하는 양중 및 조달 관리의 한계성을 인식하고 새로운 양중 및 조달 관리 방법의 모색이 필요하게 되었다. 따라서 JIT의 개념을 도입하는 것이 필수적이라 하겠다 현장 내 즉, 반입 이후의 단계는 물리적인 자재의 흐름보다는 정보의 흐름과 의사소통이 중요시되는 단계로 본 연구에서는 현장 내 물류흐름의 문제점을 분석하여, 자재별 속성을 고려한 양중계획수립, 작업일정과 양중일정의 통합관리, 자재의 위치현황 및 작업의 설치현황 가시화를 통한 정보의 공유, 계획대비 실적의 평가의 부분을 시스템개발 방향으로 설정하여. 커뮤니케이션 도구로서의 역할과 계획 대비 실적 평가를 통한 계획의 신뢰도 확보 등을 주요 기능으로 하는 양중관리시스템을 개발하였다.

Efficient scheduling and resource management are the key factor to reduce construction project budget (e.g., labor cost, equipment cost, material cost, etc.). Resource-based line of balance (LOB) technique has been used to complement the limitations of existing time-driven scheduling techniques (e.g., critical-path method). Optimizing construction alternatives contributes to cost savings while honoring the project deadline. However, existing LOB scheduling is lack of identifying optimal resource combination. This study presents a method which identifies the optimal construction alternatives, hence achieving resource minimization in a repetitive construction by using genetic algorithm (GA). The method provides efficient planning tool that enhances the usability of the system.

In this paper, we introduce a new technique for automatic construction of steel frames in high-rise buildings. Basically, we combine advanced robotic technologies to building construction techniques. Four main topics will be developed such as: 1) Planning and synthesis of automatic construction system, 2) Development of construction factory system with climbing oil-pressured robot, 3) Core techniques for automatic assembly for steel frames, and 4) Intelligent resource management system. We expect that this new technique will increase the construction efficiency and will alleviate the manpower shortage problem in the aging society.

가치공학(Value Engineering, 이하 VE)은 제조업에서 출발한 생산성 향상 기법으로 건설 분야에서도 수 십년 간 적용되어 선진외국 뿐만 아니라 국내에서도 그 효과가 이미 입증된 우수한 관리 기법이다. 그러나, 건설 부문에서의 VE는 국내외를 막론하고 그 이론과 적용에 있어 다소의 차이를 보여왔으며, 이러한 괴리는 YE의 잠재력을 극대화하는 데 있어 하나의 장애가 되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 된 연구에서는 국내 건설 YE의 내적 성장을 유도하기 위한 노력의 일관으로, 건설 VE 프로세스의 제 단계 및 기법에서 제기될 수 있는 문제점과 그 원인을 다각적으로 검토하고, 이에 대한 개선방항을 제시하고자 한다.

This study was carried out to propose the optimum technologies that can be applicable to noise and fugitive dust controlling in construction sites by comparative analysis in cases. The ninety three environmental management technologies applied to fifty-five construction projects conducted during 2005~2007 in Korea were analyzed by checklist method. The construction companies paid more attention to the noise and fugitive dust controlling technologies than the waste and wastewater. The diverse pollution controlling techniques were applied to the architectural projects than the civil projects to meet the environmental requirements in residential area. The fugitive dust controlling technologies(75.3%) were more widely applied to all construction projects than the noise controlling technologies(24.7%). As the noise controlling techniques, the noise barriers in wall-form which are set up as boundary in construction site were more widely used than the noise barriers in curtain-form, in cabin and silencers. Water spraying systems, wind barriers and mechanical sweepers were the preferred technologies for controlling fugitive dust emission.
