Abstract
The safety accidents due to the insufficient visibility are frequently occurred at the coastal zone. Therefore, safety facilities that provide visibility are certainly required to prevent accidents. In order to solve this demand, the concept of the light emitting system embedded concrete (LESeCON) are established and then concrete curb is produced for application to the coastal zone. To investigate the mechanical and functional performance of concrete curb developed in this study, the bending strength test and the visibility test are conducted.
