Interdisciplinary structural engineering Lab

Interdisciplinary structural engineering lab. aims to cultivate engineers with creative and convergence thinking competency by adopting structural engineering techniques in various fields such as human body, building, and infrastructures. In this lab, analytical techniques are studied for understanding mechanics of solid structures of human body, evaluating performance of fire damaged buildings, and improving durability of infrastructures.

Prof. Kim, Hee Sun

Smart Construction Management Lab

Smart Construction Management Lab is researching and developing smart construction technologies and construction management techniques for efficient execution of construction projects. We are developing smart construction technologies that combine the latest technologies such as artificial intelligence, data analysis, computer simulation, optimization techniques, game theory, wireless sensing technology, and computer graphics technology. We are also conducting research on delivery methods, construction management techniques, policies and systems for integrated construction management. The research results are applied not only to construction projects but also to areas such as off-site construction, sustainable construction, smart city, urban disaster response, industrial consulting, and engineering education.
