Abstract Among the various factors influencing construction productivity, weather conditions or elements become very important factors in planning and executing construction project. It is especially true in Korea where the weather changes dramatically through four seasons. In this study, relationship between construction productivity of the reinforced concrete structure for the high-rise apartment buildings and 5 weather elements including temperature, humidity, day time, rainfall, and wind velocity have been analyzed. The results through regression analysis showed that weather elements explain 58.8% of productivity in total and temperature and day time were more important factors among them.
