Abstract |
Recently as people’s values are changing from development into quality of life, the needs of environmentally friendly construction are gradually increasing, also popular discontent about the construction pollution such as the noise and vibration caused by construction machinery is increasing. Even though it is impossible to eliminate the construction pollution fully, it is necessary to make efforts to reduce construction pollution to a minimum. The first step for solving these matters is that the necessary sum of expenses must be secured as the environmental management costs in the conceptual phase. However, in fact, the environmental management costs have not been secured in the budget. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to suggest the efficient budgeting method regarding Environmental management costs. To provide an efficient budgeting method, a interview with the person in charge of environment management was conducted. And the environmental management costs were analyzed through the historical data in 78 construction sites. According to the results of analysis, the ratio of environmental management costs is revealed 0.45% of construction cost. |
