In this paper, a research was carried out to extract the more concrete and systematic method for the safety management of skyscraper construction. Here, the most risky processes in the construction of skyscrapers were extracted through the general risk evaluation for safety management processes and their characteristics and trends were analyzed for the suggestion of safety management methods and safety inspection factors in the construction of skyscrapers, as well as for the suggestion of prevention measures for major disasters. The result of this paper will be well used as a basic data in establishing the manual necessary for executing the construction of skyscrapers more safely than the present where there is no specific direction for the safe management of skyscraper construction yet.
