It is impossible, however, to reflect all the side factors on the construction cost. Therefore, at least the cost factors from similar conditions in similar projects must be reflected. For the effective method used at this time, the unit price for the measurement of the quantity could be the most suitable cost model. This research aims to study the utilization goal and the current utilization status of the standard methods of measurement of some countries, and to propose new directions for the domestic standard methods of measurement. Not only are the standard methods of measurement utilized in the detailed design stage, but a method of interconnecting the information to be utilized in the initial design stage is also required.  \nKeywords: SMM(Standard Methods of Measurement), Cost Estimating, Design Stage  \n1. Background and Goal  \nCost planning model can be applied to cost factors based on quality methods of measurement with respect to the characteristics of the construction project. Many studies have been  \nperformed in domestic until now, but they have various problems regarding their utilization in practice.  \nTherefore, this study propos the cost model, through it is compared and analyzed with the standard methods of measurement(SMM) of developed countries and that can reflect the construction cost factors based on quantities unit by design stage.  \nThis cost model is to support decision-making by the owner and the architecture considering cost and design simultaneously  \nThis study first examined the primary theoretical base for performing the conceptual cost calculation model, and then studied the prototype of the calculation system as an advanced study. This study is meant to be a practical study that will make possible systemization and computerization through consistent review of and complementation by succeeding research.  \n1.1 Research Process  \nThis study examined the methods of utilization of standard methods of cost measurement and calculation by stage based on related literature and standard methods of cost measurement in other developed countries.  \n(1) Study of the Cost Calculation Method by Design Stage  \n(2) Study of the Current Status of Advanced Foreign Countries’ Standard Methods of Measurement  \n(3) Analysis of the Cost Estimating Utilization Model in the Planning Stage with the Standard Methods of Measurement in the Construction Documents Stage.  \nThe abovementioned research process aimed to study the utilization of standard methods of measurement and the method of connecting cost calculation methods in the construction documents stage and the initial design stage based on the quantities of unit or elements.  \n2.
