RC slab bridges account for the largest portion of deteriorated bridges in Korea. However, most RC slabs are not included in the first and second classes of bridges, which are subject to bridge safety management and maintenance. The highest damaged components in highway bridges are the subsidiary facilities including expansion joints and bearings. In particular, leakage through expansion joints causes deterioration and cracks of concrete and exposure of reinforced bars. Therefore, this study analyzed the effect of adhesion damage at expansion joints on the response of the deck in RC slab bridges. When the spacing between the expansion joints at both ends was closely adhered, cracks occurred in the concrete at both ends of the deck due to the resistance rigidity at the expansion joints. Based on the response results, the correlation analysis between displacements in the longitudinal direction of the expansion joint and concrete stress at both ends of the deck for each damage scenario was performed to investigate the effect of the occurrence of damage on the bridge behavior. When expansion joint devices at both sides were damaged, the correlation between displacement and stress showed a low correlation of 0.18 when the vehicles proceeded along all the lanes. Compared with those in the intact state, the deflections of the deck in the damaged case at both sides showed a low correlation of 0.34 to 0.53 while the vehicle passed and 0.17 to 0.43 after the vehicle passed. This means that the occurrence of cracks in the ends of concrete changed the behavior of the deck. Therefore, data-deriven damage detection could be developed to manage the damage to expansion joints that cause damage and deterioration of the deck.

The major cause of deterioration for the bare concrete bridge decks exposed to de-icing chemicals would be chloride-induced reinforcement corrosion. Thus, in this paper, in order to predict time to corrode for concrete bridge decks on highways, the chloride concentration was measured with depth from the surface. Then, the surface chloride concentration and apparent diffusion coefficient were calculated by regression. The premature failure of bare concrete decks were mostly related with thin cover depth and poor concrete property(high permeability). The good protection of deck surface might contribute to the prolongation of the service life of bare concrete bridge decks.

건설 분야에서 FRP(Fiber Reinforced Polymers) 부재는 기존의 건설부재에 비해 많은 장점을 가지고 있어 여러 분야에서 연구 및 개발이 이루어지고 있다. 그중 FRP 재료를 이용한 교량 부재들이 해외 뿐만 아니라 국내에서도 연구되고 있으며, FRP 인장재 및 바닥판은 연구 및 개발이 완료돼 현재 시공 중에 있고 FRP 휨 부재 또한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이런 FRP 부재는 외부 환경에 그대로 노출됨으로써, 온도 등의 주위 환경의 변화에 많은 영향을 받게 되며, 특히 높은 온도에 취약한 성질을 가지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 FRP 부재의 온도에 따른 역학적 특성을 파악하기위한 실험적 연구로써, $-21^{\circ}C$, $100^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C$에 각각 1시간씩 시험체를 보관한 뒤 내구성 실험을 실시하였다. 각각의 시험체는 FRP 모듈형 박스부재에서 4개씩 채취하였으며, 실험 실시 후 SEM촬영을 실시하여 파괴모드를 분석하였다. 실험 결과 저온일 때는 강도변화가 많이 나타나지 않았으나 고온일 때 압축 및 휨강도의 급격한 저조를 확인할 수 있었다. 고온 보관 시험체의 SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope) 촬영결과 수지의 손상으로 낮은 강도가 측정되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

현재의 오피스는 공간이 좁고, 바닥위의 배선이 장애물이며, 형광전구가 노출된 조명으로 실내 작업환경에 대한 고려가 매우 미약한 점에 의심할 여지가 없다고 생각된다. 특히 OA기기의 도입에 따른 집무 공간의 감소, 프린터 소음, 기기의 발생열, 배선, VDT(Visual Display Terminal:화면이 있는 OA기기) 작업과 관련된 환경 관리, 작업관리, 건강관리의 필요성등의 문제가 발생하고 있다. 그러므로 쾌적한 분위기를 구성요소로 조명은 실의 LAY OUT, 표면처리, 배색등 인테리어 디자인과 함께 그 효과를 최대한으로 연출하도록 되리라 생각된다. 따라서, 자연채광 이용을 통하여 절감될 수 있는 인공조명(형광등)의 제어방법으로서 본 논문에서는 점멸방식(ON,OFF)을 시도하였으며 점멸에 따른 급격한 조도저하를 보다 심리적인 차원을 고려한 실내조명 조광장치(천정형태와 외부에 댄 반사판)로 인한 실내조도 분포의 영향에 대하여 파악하고자 하였다.

The deterioration environments caused by de-icing salt and airborne chlorides in the seashore, evaluated in the "Detailed guideline for safety and management practice of facilities (performance evaluation)", were reviewed in terms of penetrated chlorides into concrete on various road facilities. Target concrete structures, in this study, were 4 concrete barriers in Gangwon area, 3 concrete barriers and 1 retaining wall in Busan area, and 4 bridges in Gangwon-do, Seoul, Gyeonggi-do, and Busan. The deterioration environments were classified into three categories: direct and indirect de-icing salt attack, and airborne salt attack depending on the distance to seashore and the height of pier, and the penetrated chlorides in to concrete were analyzed. The results showed that (1) the regional deterioration environments were clearly classified by de-icing salt sprayed days (snowfall days), (2) the penetrated chlorides increased significantly when leakage occurred through slabs or expansion joints, and (3) the airborne chlorides affected to a height of 20 m concrete in the seashore, Busan. From these, it could be confirmed that the chloride ion penetration properties depend on the exposed aging environment, member location and height, and deterioration status, even on the same structure, so the selection of target members and location is very important in the inspection and maintenance. If the database of penetrated chlorides properties in various deterioration environments is constructed, it is expected that the proactive durability management on concrete structures will be possible in the field.

Steel elevator pit was developed for the purpose of minimizing the excavation, simplifying the construction of the frame and economical efficiency by improving the problems that occurred in the existing reinforced concrete. It is common to apply conventional RC method through excavation to underground structures such as underground floor collector well and elevator pit. In recent years, the use of steel collector well and steel elevator pits to reduce construction costs by minimizing the materials of steel and concrete has been continuously increasing. The steel elevator pit is an underground structure and then the performance of the welding part and the structure system is important. Specimen with only steel plate and concrete without studs could support the load more than 3 times than the specimen with deck only. Therefore, even if there is no stud, the deck (steel plate) rib is formed and the effect of restraining the steel plate and the concrete during the bending action can be expected. However, since sudden fracture in the elevator pit may occur, stud bolt arrangement is necessary for the composite effect of steel plate and concrete. It is expected that the bending strength can be expected to increase by about 15% or more depending with and without stud bolts.
