Recently domestic youth unemployment rate has increased continuously. The cause is due to construction recession. As a result, the youth unemployment rate was approximately 8.0% in 2013. In particular, graduates of civil engineers and architecture engineers are difficult to find a new job. Major construction companies also prefer new employees rather than career employees. Therefore, the employment rate of construction-related university graduates is continuing decline. Accordingly, construction and technical engineers will be aging. Therefore, this study was looking for ways to promote the overseas expansion of young construction engineers. And this research has suggested the ways which young engineers can find a new job through improving the system.

Construction engineers are the core resource for the sustainable development of construction industry and positive images toward construction engineers give much impacts on recruit and retainment of the young and talented. Although previous studies reported on negative aspects of the image of construction industry, the image of construction engineers has not been properly investigated to date. The objective of the study is to compare images of construction engineers as perceived by general public and construction engineers themselves in order to identify key characteristics and implications. The result shows that construction engineers themselves, compared with general public, have more negative tendencies on images of construction engineers. The study suggests that it is critical to enhance the understanding of roles of construction engineers and their morality in order to improve general public's perception on construction engineers images. On the other hand, fundamental measures to be taken to restore the environments of construction industry for construction engineers to improve their self-perception on images of construction engineers.

The existing leg-rest for transmission line construction was established on the ground as a structure. As a result of that, it caused some problems such as, a tremendous forest damage, excessive construction costs and the long time of construction period. In order to solve these problems, we suggest the protective net for an air installation. It is a new method of construction which has a dielectric strength with a light-weight and high-strength. And it's not influenced by a geographical feature. This excellent method doesn't affect a forest and can reduce tremendously the construction cost and period.

In the early 90s, we had serious shortage of construction engineers for the expansion of construction market. So, Government has established the admitted engineer system in 1995. However, since year 2000, while the engineershortage has been resolved, the opposite situation has occurred: serious over-supply of construction engineers. Therefore, Government announced that would abolish the admitted engineer systems as recognized the existent admitted engineers from 2007. From this point of view, it is critical to make the accurate forecast of number of required construction engineers for providing the basis for the most appropriate policy from 2008 to 2017. This research have developed a construction engineer supply-demand forecast model based on the GDP and construction market analysis. The results of this research will be applied to the basic data that policy planner establishes the supply-demand policy of construction engineers.

This study is conducted to compare three methods of hazard analyses and to propose the control for the accidents arising under construction of heat accumulator of group energy projects(co-generation plants). The analysis of fatal accidents and the Analytic Hierarchical Process(AHP) using by the questionnaire survey for the workers engaged in the construction of heat accumulator and the quantitative questionnaire survey of expert group has been carried out. In order to analyze the fatal accidents, the 115 cases of accidents from 2001 to 2012 published by Korean Occupational Safety and Health Agency(KOSHA) and workers suffered from industrial accidents are collected and analyzed. The AHP is applied and analyzed for 66 persons of the construction site managers, safety engineers and construction engineers and the questionnaire survey of expert group is carried out and analyzed for the 51 persons of contractors and construction inspectors. The analyses of the types of accidents and the jobs of the suffered workers and the hazardous construction processes which are occurred accidents frequently are shown. The results of the analysis of fatal accidents and the AHP as well as the questionnaire of expert group are shown similar results.

Construction projects heavily rely on construction engineers competency, and instant judgment and problem solving ability against unpredictable situation directly affect the success of construction project. Therefore in order to hire construction engineers that are competent to lead construction projects successfully, the construction engineer competency evaluation is essential from the selection process. Hence, this research proposed items to assess the operation competency of construction engineers by deducing influence factors necessary to measure operation competency via interviews with experts and applying the factors. After conducting survey questionnaire utilizing analytic hierarchy process(AHP) for the proposed operation competency measurement items, weighted values were assigned.

According to development and urbanization of country, environment and ecosystem were ignored during the past thirty years. Therefore canal, which had been developed by concrete, is remained as the space where life can not alive any longer. In this study, Environmental friendly canal construction method using porous loess block are investigated. Porous loess blocks are which is developing focused on both scenery and hydraulic safty. Canal using Porous loess blocks can take a vegetation's distribution and improvement of soil properties and hydraulic safty of bank. In this study, The examination of applied canal construction method using porous loess block that is considering vegetation's distribution and properties of material is done to present development of environmental friendly canal construction method.

We need to do the supervision work is necessary to prepare detailed criteria in order to pursue the electronic power facility's quality, prevention of poor construction, electric safety, and the qualitative improvement of electronic technology. The detail standard has need of legalization for systematic and efficiently achievement at the field of construction work. In such respect, this paper will examine a lump improvement of supervision works and prevention of poor construction by arranging the necessity of constructive supervision accomplishment guide notice and the establish plan for rationalization of supervision works.
