Abstract Standard Estimating System, which can be used for estimating a construction cost, has been pointed out having several problems such as non-reflecting a variety of construction environments and site conditions, non-adapting new technologies and methods since it was established in 1970. For solving these problems, the Korean Institute of Construction Technology(KICT) has amended Standard Estimating System with some organizations. However, they have had many mistakes in the process of amending works because of non-establishing amending process and absence of the depreciation measurement method. The primary objective of this research is to improve the amending process of the Standard Estimating System so that amending participants can reduce error in the process of amending the Standard Estimating System. Furthermore, this research proposed the depreciation measurement method available for the construction temporary work by means of analyzing researches that performed in the manufacturing industry and the measurement method for depreciation of general accounts. It is anticipated that the effective use of the proposed depreciation measurement method would be able to minimize the dispute between the owner and construction company.
