Post-installed anchor is a structural material that connects structural and non-structural members to existing concrete members. However, there are cases where rebar interception and construction error occur at the site. In that case, measures are needed to prevent performance degradation of the rear-installation anchors. In this study, in order to evaluate the performance of torsional control expandable post-installed anchors for compressive strength and effective depth of the reference concrete was tested. The results of the most commonly used tests of M10 and M20 showed that had variable coefficients within 15%, satisfying the reliability presented in KCI(2017). It was also confirmed that the depth of the buried and the strength of concrete affect the strength of the pavement. Based on the results of the existing similar studies and the results of this study, the design equation of the post-installed anchor was proposed and the results were compared with the existing design.

Domestic construction firms make every effort to save cost and, contrarily, enhance quality for competitive advantage in the market. Structural work of building construction takes chaise of the total cost and schedule, thus elaborate planning and management of the work help to lead the project into a successful way. Therefore, the idea to save time and cost and enhance constructability securing quality and safety of the work should be developed after analyzing the designed documents and site conditions comprehensively in the initial construction planning phase. Value Engineering (VE) technique is introduced in the substructural work in this paper to save cost creatively and systematically in the design and construction phase. A practical VE model that is applied to the underground building work systematically is proposed to save cost and it applies to the actual project to confirm the effectiveness of the model.

최근 들어 보의 환경적인 측면을 고려한 저낙차형 구조물 설치가 요구되면서 고정보의 형태도 다양하게 제안되고 있다. 그러나 실무에 적용하기 위한 고정보의 설계 가이드라인은 매우 한정적이며 대부분 보 하류부에 대한 세굴이나 세굴 방지에 대한 연구가 주를 이루고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 국내 중소하천에 설치된 고정보의 물리적 제원 변경에 의한 수리적 특성을 분석함으로써 환경적인 측면을 고려한 저낙차형 고정보 설계 시 반영할 수 있는 기초자료를 제공하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 경사형 및 계단형 보에 대해 crest 변화에 따른 기본적인 유량계수를 도출하였으며 수위-유량 관계 곡선을 개발하였다. 또한 유량과 crest 등과 같은 수리학적 조건을 변화시켜 자유 흐름 조건 및 잠긴 흐름 조건의 흐름특성을 분석하였다. 실험은 crest 길이에 따라 총 4개의 case로 나누어 수행하였다. 각 case 별 총 8개 유량조건에 대해 각각 자유흐름과 잠긴 흐름에서의 수위를 측정하였으며 정확한 흐름 및 수위 계측을 위해 디지털 카메라와 캠코더를 활용하였다. 분석결과 같은 유량조건에서는 crest가 증가할수록 수위 값도 증가하였으며 유량별 수위의 범위는 경사형 보가 계단형 보 보다 넓은 것으로 나타났다. 향후 본 연구 결과는 현장에서 고정보에 대한 crest 설계 시 충분히 고려될 수 있는 자료가 될 것으로 판단된다.

Piling engineers in limit state design should consider both capacity of a pile and settlements of pile for stability of a structure. This paper analyzes the prediction of the settlements of single piles and nine-group piles installed at an overconsolidated clay site by common prediction methods and cone penetrometer test data obtained closely at pile locations. The effects of Young's modulus, which varies spatially in soil profile, on estimating the set tlements of piles have been investigated briefly. The predicted settlements for single piles and nine-pile group by using simple linear elan tic methods, Vesic's method and Poulos's method, overestimated overalls the measured valroes, and the assumption of Youngs modulus, which are to be varied linearly through the soil layers. did not significantly affect the settlement predictions.

As the use of drilled shafts for foundation of a large size structure increases, the evaluation of the reliable bearing capacity of the pile has become important. The purpose of this study is to verify the reliability of bearing capacity equations for drilled shafts socketed in weathered rock by comparing the bearing capacity values from static load tests with values from bearing capacity equations. In this study, twelve data from static load test were selected from four field sites, and the data of load test and the properties of weathered rock were analyzed. Three methods widely used in practice were selected for analysis, namely the AASHTO method (1996), Carter & Kulhawy method (1988), and FHWA method (1999). The comparison of the bearing capacity values from the bearing capacity equations to those obtained from load tests showed that the Carter & Kulhawy method (1988) was the most reliable in giving conservative design values and smaller COV (Coefficient Of Variation).

There are many cuts or natural rock slopes that remain stable for a long time in the natural environment with steep slopes ($65^{\circ}$ to $85^{\circ}$). In terms of design practice, the rock mass consisting of similar rock condition and geological structures is defined as a good continuum rock slope, and during the process of decision making angle of this rock slope, it will be important to establish the geotechnical properties estimating method of the continuum rock on the process of stability analysis in the early stages of design and construction. In this study, the stability analysis of a good continuum rock slope that can be designed as a steep slope proposed a practical method of estimating the shear strength by induced from the Hoek-Brown failure criterion, and in addition, the design applicability was evaluated through the stability analysis of steep rock slope. The existing method of estimating the shear strength was inadequate for practical use in the design, as the equivalent M-C shear strength corresponding to the H-B envelope changes sensitively, even with small variations in confining stress. To compensate for this problem, it was proposed to estimate equivalent M-C shear strength by iso-angle division method. To verify the design applicability of the iso-angle division method, the results of the safety factor and the displacement according to the change in angle of the cut slope constructed at the existing working design site were reviewed. The safety factor is FS=16~59 on the 1:0.5 slope, FS=12~52 on the 1:0.3 slope, most of which show a 10~12 percent reduction. Displacement is 0.126 to 0.975 mm on the 1:0.5 slope, 0.152 to 1.158 mm on the 1:0.3 slope, and represents an increase of 10 to 15%. This is a slightly change in normal proportion and is in good condition in terms of stability. In terms practical the working design, it was confirmed that applying the shear strength estimated by Iso-angle division method derived from the H-B failure criterion as a universal shear strength for a good continuum rock mass slope was also able to produce stable and economic results. The procedure for stability analysis using LEM (Limit Equilibrium Analysis Method) and FEM (Finite Element Analysis Method) will also be practical in the rock slope where is not distributed fault. The study was conducted by selecting the slope of study area as a good rock condition, establishing a verification for which it can be applied universal to a various rock conditions will be a research subject later on.

The major objective of this study is to investigate the fatigue damage factor evaluation of immovability crossing for railway turnout by the field test and qualitative analysis. From the field test results of the servicing turnout crossing and qualitative analysis with frictional wear which section stiffness decreased, it was evaluated fatigue life of servicing turnout crossing. Most design practices have not taken advantage of the advanced theories in the modern fracture mechanics and finite element analysis due to complexity of analysis as well as the large quantity of vaguely defined parameters in actual designs. This paper considers fatigue problems in turnout crossing using effective analytical and design tools from the field of qualitative constraint reasoning. A set of software modules was developed for fatigue analysis and evaluation, which is easily applicable in engineering practices of designers. The techniques enable the use complex analysis formulations to tackle practical problems with uncertainties, and present the design outcome in two-dimensional design space solution. Appropriate engineering assumptions and judgments in carrying out these procedures, often the most difficult part for practicing engineers, can be partially produced by using qualitative reasoning to define the trends and ranges, interval constraint analysis to derive the controlling parameters, as well as design space to account for practical experience.

The architectural drawing, construction project specification, etc. are included in the contract of a documents. However, construction project specification, for being documentation, is not utilized to such an extent. The reason is that specification information is difficult in collecting information in relation to the architectural drawing, material finishing list and other architectural information. Therefore, an integrated model, which can be associated with other architectural information, is needed, and a DB based on this integrated model must be established in order for it to be utilized in design, construction, and management. The DB, which is established through this process, must be updated according to modification in design, and construction. Furthermore the specification must be in document on the web for reference. Consequently in this research, the structure of integrated model has been introduced, and it has made the search and preparation of the integrated model on the Internet, using the specification information DB established for the mutual reference of DB, possible. The improvements of construction project specification standards are expected by this system. Also, it will bring about Improvements upon claim prevention, and design, construction, management qualities. Furthermore, it will make the use of information more convenient in practical business such as order agency, design service and building site.

There has been much focus on the strong axis steel moment connections after the Northridge earthquake in 1994. However, research studieson the seismic behavior of weak axis moment connections could be hardly found despite the fact that these connection details have been frequently used as seismic details of MRF in Korea. Therefore, the objective of this research is to provide better knowledge on the seismic behavior of weak-axis steel moment connections, which can be widely applicable to many structures with similar characteristics. For this purpose, an experimental program was designed and performed with twotypes of weak-axis steel moment connections, namely the bracket type and WUF-B type, based on the survey of existing field data and literatures. Using the experimental results obtained from the quasi-static cyclic testing of these specimens, structural performances of the joints such as hysteretic curves, maximum strength capacities and the strain of reinforced bars were investigated. From the test results, the bracket-type connection was shown to have more than a 5% story drift capacity, compared with the WUF-B type connection's 4%. These specimens were also shown to have higher strength capacities than the nominal design strength. The bracket-type connection showed a slow strength degradation after maximum strength was researched. However,the WUF-B type connection showed a rapid strength degradation that caused brittle behavior.
