Development of a Multi-Layer Marking Toolkit for Layout-Printing Automation at Construction Sites.

In this study, the development of a multi-layer marking toolkit was investigated to improve construction quality and mitigate the problem of irregular designs in the layout-printing work performed at construction sites. The quality of conventional layout-printing work is dependent on the skill of the worker, and construction quality can suffer owing to inconsistencies in drawings resulting from human error. In this study, these problems were analyzed, and a construction-site-layout-marking toolkit apparatus and mechanical unit, with a structure that allowed for multi-layer installation for automated implementation at construction sites, were developed.

Techno-Cultural Factors Affecting Policy Decision-Making: A Social Network Analysis of South Korea's Local Spatial Planning Policy.

Increasing interest in various local construction forms necessitate examining its link to human life. Construction culture should be adapted and applied to the contemporary context to create a harmonious coexistence with diverse local cultures and to strengthen regional sustainability, avoiding the rigid, one-dimensional local construction development. Thus, this study aims to analyze the factors of influence needed for policy decision-making at the local spatial planning stage, with regional technologies and cultural contents from a convergent perspective taken into consideration.
