[18] The vertical moving unit 300 is preferably a winch 310, and a fixing unit 330 is provided at an end of a wire 311 wound on the winch 310. The fixing unit is a structure installed at a position according to need, and allowing the vertical moving unit to be fixed to the building. The fixing unit can include a bracket 331 attached to the building, and having an insertion through-hole; a connection member 333 connected with the insertion through-hole, and allowing the bracket to be fixed to the building; catching rings 336 and 336a provided at the bracket, and fixing the wire of the winch. In addition, the vertical moving unit 300 is fixed to the steel frame structure 100, and can include a rail installed at the building; a wheel moving on the rail; and a motor activating the wheel.

[19] A structure of the present invention can be changed in position, size, shape, number, structure, and material, and can be of course applied with some parts omitted.

[20] The steel frame structure 100 can be assembled by welding of a plurality of steels

110 or can be assembled using a connector such as a bolt 111 and a nut 112 (FlG. 4), and is opened at its lower side to allow passage of the building. In this case, the steel frame structure 100 can have a size corresponding to a size of the building.

[21] The steel frame structure 100 can be combined with a structure such as a bracket, a scaffolding system, a clamp, a steel frame (safety) worktable, a safety temporary equipment, and a safety network, for the purpose of securing work space and stably fixing the building.

[22] The horizontal moving unit 200 is installed at the top of the steel frame structure

100, and transports the materials in the horizontal direction of the steel frame structure 100.

[23] The steel frame structure 100 installs the rail at its top, and the pair of wheels 220a moving on the rail 210 is connected by a connection rod 230a.

[24] The connection rod 230a can include a plurality of winches 240. The winch 240 is movable on the connection rod 230a by activation of the motor, and can employ an applied structure of the winch such as a crane according to need. In this case, the horizontal moving unit 200 can have a corresponding structure making it possible to perform up/down movement on the steel frame structure 100 or the building by operations of the rail installed at the steel frame structure 100 or the building, the wheel moving on the rail, and the motor according to need.

[25] The connection rods 230a and 230c having the winches 240 can be constructed to have the number according to need, and the winch 240 and the connection rods 230a and 230c can be all or some interlocked with one another or operated separately.

[26] The wire 41 is wound on the winch 240, and a hook 243 and a structure such as a nipper are provided at an end of the wire 241 to easily fix the corresponding material to be transported.

[27] The vertical moving unit 300 can be constructed in plural, and can be all or some interlocked with one another or operated separately.

[28] The bracket 331 can be fabricated to have various shapes such as "D", "D", and

"D"-shapes, and can be attached to a ceiling surface, a bottom surface, and a sidewall of the building 500, and can have the insertion through-hole 332 (FlG. 5). The connection member 333 such as the bolt 334 and the nut is coupled to the insertion through-hole 332. In this case, the bolt 334 can pass through the ceiling surface 510 or the bottom surface of the concrete structure 500, and the nut 355 can be connected and fixed to one end of the bolt 334, thereby fixing the bracket 331a to the concrete structure 500. A pair of the bolts 333a can be connected to the insertion through-hole 332a of the bracket 331a, and can be fixed to be in contact with upper and lower surfaces of the ceiling surface 510, respectively, thereby fixing the bracket 331a to the concrete structure 500 (FlG. 6).

[29] For operation of the present invention, an execution unit (adjustment unit, a controlling unit, a terminal unit) can be provided for wire/wireless controlling operations of the horizontal moving unit 200 and the vertical moving unit 300.

[30] The adjustment unit (being similar with a conventional adjustment chamber of a tower crane) can control the horizontal moving unit 200 and the vertical moving unit 300. The adjustment unit can have a space for worker's riding and a structure necessary for the control, and can have a corresponding structure of allowing an omni¬ directional movement and a 360? rotation on the steel frame structure.

[31] The controlling unit (400 of FlG. 7) can control the horizontal moving unit 200 and the vertical moving unit 300, and can be of a type being installed at the internal or external of the other structure. [32] The terminal unit can manually or automatically control the horizontal moving unit

200 and the vertical moving unit 300, and can employ a notebook computer, a portable digital assistants (PDA), and a cellular phone. The terminal unit can be installed at the internal or the external of the other structure of the present invention.

[33] The terminal unit includes a management system; an outputting device such as a liquid crystal display and a monitor for converting data (Hereinafter, referred to as "coordinate data") sensed in a sensor and an image device, into image data; a coordinate processor for analyzing and processing coordinate data, analyzing and processing coordinate values on X, Y, and Z-axes of the corresponding structure and material, and outputting the processed data to a control program; the control program for controlling a structure and an operation of the present invention with reference to the data and control data received from the coordinate processor; an output unit for wire/wireless outputting a control content to the corresponding unit; a control program management unit programmed for the purpose of editing, modifying, and deleting the control program and the control data; an input unit such as a mouse, a keyboard, and a joystick; a storage unit such as a hard disc drive (HDD) and a compact disc-read only memory (CD-ROM); and a database. The terminal unit can be installed at the steel frame structure 100, the horizontal moving unit 200, the vertical moving unit 300, and the corresponding material, and can be interlocked with the image device such as the sensor and a camera for sensing and photographing a position and a status of the structure. In the case of being controlled by the terminal unit, the sensor and the image device output the coordinate value of the installed corresponding structure to the real¬ time coordinate processor.

[34] The outputting device makes it possible for the horizontal moving unit 200 and the vertical moving unit 300 to perform a precision work. For one example, in case where the corresponding material is moved using the horizontal moving unit 200, image data on a current position and a position at which the corresponding material is to be installed can be outputted, and contents necessary for the work can be confirmed, compared, and analyzed.

[35] The control data has the control content of the horizontal moving unit 200 and the vertical moving unit 300, and data on the to-be-installed position of the corresponding material and a construction work procedure and method such as a movement method.

[36] The control program, the control data, and the control program management unit can be inputted through the storage unit such as the CD-ROM and Internet.

[37] The inventive structure can be manually controlled through the terminal unit, and can be automatically controlled by the control program. In this case, the structure has a receiver for wire/wireless receiving a corresponding command, and a corresponding device. [38] In the case of being controlled automatically, the structure according to an embodiment of the present invention is as follows. In the operation of the horizontal moving unit, the coordinate processor analyzes, processes and outputs real-time coordinate data to the control program. The control program moves the horizontal moving unit and the corresponding material to corresponding positions with reference to the received data and control data. A worker welds and fixes the moved cor¬ responding material to a corresponding position using the connection member.

[39] In an embodiment of the present invention, in the building such as an apartment house, a mold corresponding to an outside surface of the sidewall 530 is defined as an outside panel 630, a mold corresponding to an inside surface of the sidewall 530 is defined as an inside panel 610, and a mold corresponding to the ceiling surface 510 is defined as a top panel 650. The panel can be formed of various materials such as wood and steel. In case where a plurality of panels constitute one panel, a combined joint 620 can be rotated centering on a hinge shaft to fold the panel (FIGS. 8 A and 8B), and a hook unit is provided to connect a hook 243 and the wire 241 of the horizontal moving unit 200.

[40] The constructed sidewall 530 includes a top panel support 670 (In FIGS. 9A, 9B, and 9C, it includes a bracket 671 fixed to the sidewall using a bolt 672 and a nut 673, and a support member 675 seated on the bracket and supporting a bottom surface of the panel) for supporting the top panel 650.

[41] The top panel support 670 can be fixed to the sidewall 530 using various methods.

In this case, in the case of needing a through-hole passing through the sidewall 530, the corresponding panel can have a corresponding structure allowing the through-hole.

[42] The pair of brackets 671 is installed correspondingly to both sidewalls, and both ends of the support member 675 are seated in the brackets 671, respectively. The brackets 671 can be fabricated to have various shapes such as "D", "D", and "D"-shapes according to the embodiments of the present invention.

[43] The support member 675 can be of wood and steel, and can be supported at its lower surface by a structure such as a support.
