Abstract This study attempted to estimate oil consumption and carbon dioxide emissions caused by the use of construction equipment and machine at the construction operation phase in 27 apartment construction sites. To calculate oil consumption at the construction operation phase of the apartment buildings, the construction equipment & machine-used construction items were classified using the construction statements. Then, oil consumption at the construction operation phase was obtained in 27 apartment construction sites. For carbon dioxide emissions, the construction items were categorized by construction type and building based on the estimated oil consumption. In terms of carbon dioxide emissions by building, 'welfare facilities' were the highest with 11,508.86g-CO2/㎡(27%). In terms of carbon dioxide emission by construction type, on the contrary, 'building construction' was the largest with 5,453.25g-CO2/㎡(89.34%).
