In this paper, always monitoring system of fiber Bragg Crating(FBG)Sensor is described and FBGs are well suited for measuring the movement in the part of the spatial structure(for example, cable, membrane and so on)under the pressure conditions. In order to measure the movement of long span structure, we need the measurable equipment that takes in many spots to measure. In the result of experiment, the fiber sensors showed good response to the pressure conditions. Therefore, We could calculate the movement of spatial structure and be possible health monitoring of the spatial structure.

대공간 구조시스템은 일반적으로 자중을 최소화하고 부재내력의 효과적인 사용이 매우중요하다. 따라서 준공후의 외력에 대한 구조적 거동에 대한 파악도 중요하지만 시공중의 거동에 대한 파악도 매우 중요하다. 특히 케이블 막구조의 경우 시각초기에 구조물이 불안정하지만 케이블에 장력이 도입되면서 점차적으로 구조물의 강성이 높아져 구조물이 안정화를 이루게 피므로 시공과정 해석 즉 안정화 이행과정해석이 시공계획을 설정하는 부분에서 매우 중요한 요소가 된다. 본고에서는 케이블 막구조의 실례로써 최근 완공된 인천문학 경기장 지붕구조를 대상으로 시공과정과 안정화 이행과정해석에 대한 소개를 한다. 인천문학경기장 지붕구조는 케이블에 장력을 도입하는 과정에서 발생되는 변형과 내력을 흡수하고 하부구조에 대한 영향을 최소화하기 위하여 마스크 지점의 회전과 이동이 가능한 특수공법을 채택하였으며 시공과정해석(안정화이행과정해석)을 통하여 제시된 단계별 목표장력 및 변위에 따라 시공과정이 계획되고 제어되었다. 특히 외국의 기술로 설계된 자료를 근거로 일방적으로 공사를 수행한 다른 구조물과는 다르게 국내의 기술력에 바탕한 구조 해석 등을 통하여 검증하여 최종 시공방법을 결정하였고 이러한 과정을 통하여 대공간 구조에 대한 기술력을 확보하고 확인할 수 있었으며, 그 결과 향후에는 국내의 기술력으로 이와 같은 대규모의 케이블 막구조의 설계와 시공이 가능할 것이라고 판단된다.

A shell structure, having a curvature with a curved surface, is an extremely efficient mechanical creation regard to the external load. A basic structural resistance mechanism is the structural system, which is resisted the out-of-plane direction load by in-plane forces using the structure's curvature. Therefore, it has a merit to make thin and lightweight large spacial structures using minimum materials. Among the large spare structural system, the rapid development of the membrane structures, cable structures and the hybrid structures are watched recently. But, this kind of structural system shows the unstable phenomenon by snap-through or bifurcation according to the shape of structure, and the understanding of the collapse mechanism by this phenomenon is very important to the design process. In this study, I investigated the unstable characteristics of the Geiger-type, Zetlin-type and flower-type hybrid cable dome structures, which is the lightweight hybrid structures using compression and tension elements continuously, according to the difference of structural system.

Recently, the demand of the large span structures has been increasing. The large span structures include such a large scaled structures such as: the shell structure, the space frame structure, the membrane structure and the cable structure, etc. The large span structures are supposed to be confirmed and issued carefully at the initial process of the design besides the construction engineering aspects because of the structural specific cause that should solve and accomodate those large and wide space without columns. In the field of the large span structure construction, the erection construction method has been regarded as a major affected aspects on the construction cost, construction term, and stability. In the field of the large span structure construction, there are various construction method and system could be applied depends on the condition of the construction site and other circumstances such a major construction method as: the element method, the block method, the sliding method, the lift-up method and complexed method, etc. In this study, as the case study of the erection construction method of the large span structures, after survey and study that those existing large span structures construction cases which had applied and adopted the election construction method and analysis and classify into the Uoups by the size, span, ceiling height, structural system in odor to supply and suggest the data for the enhancement and development in the field of the erection construction method as a efficient structural solution of the large span structure construction.

우리의 경제발전과 함께, 막구조 및 케이블구조를 이용한 특수 대공간 구조물이 더욱 더 늘어날 전망이며, 이들 구조물의 구조해석은 일반적인 범용ㅇ 구조해석 프로그램으로는 해석이 불가능하다. 즉, 대부분의 범용 구조해석 프로그램이 초기강성을 가진 구조물을 해석할 수 있는데 반해, 막구조 및 케이블 구조는 초기강성이 매우 약한 구조체이므로, 초기 불안정현상을 나타내고, 따라서 해석이 불가능하게 된다. 이러한 구조적 특징을 가진 막구조 및 케이블구조를 해석하기 위하여, 막 케이블 및 트러스요소로 구성된 복합구조체를 해석할 수 있는 범용 구조해석 프로그램인 McS(Membrane and Cable/Truss Structures)가 개발되었으며, 그 Flow-chart는 표1에서와 같다. McS는 현재, 한국에서는 성균관대학교 자연과학캠퍼스의 VAX-11, 1명진단조공업주식회사의 SUN 워크스테이션에서 작동중이며, 일본에서는 동경대학 생산기술연구소의 M-380 및 T.I.S. & Partners의 IBM 워크스테이션에서 작동중에 있다.

Membrane structures, a kind of lightweight soft structural system, are used for spatial structures. The design procedure of membrane structures are needed to do shape finding, stress-deformation analysis and cutting pattern generation, because the material property has strong axial stiffness, but little bending stiffness. The problem of cooing pattern is highly varied in their size, curvature and material stiffness. So, the approximation inherent in cutting pattern generation methods is quite different. Therefore the ordinary computer software of structural analysis & design is not suitable for membrane structures. In this study, we develop the program for cooing pattern generation using geodesic line, and investigate the result of example's cooing pattern in detail.

With the increased demand for membrane structures in recent years, there have been many studies of their mechanical properties, to the extent that such structures have become recognized as independent structures with a level of safety and durability comparable to those of other general structures. But in reality, the study for the maintenance of membrane structures has not been as active. In particularly, the study of watertightness from the perspective of maintenance has been very limited. Accordingly, a study on securing watertightness performance and the guidelines for maintenance is necessary. In this study, through a case study of water leakage accidents in membrane structures overseas, causes of leakage were selected from the membrane material itself, joint parts and open door of roof part in membrane structure. The water leakage and deterioration elements were analyzed from those leakage causes. The degree of importance of the water leakage and deterioration index was also designated using the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method. As a result, the basic technical index was suggested for the maintenance of the roofs of large-span membrane structures to prevent water leakage. This index will be used to make a guideline for the long-term maintenance of the roofs of large-span membrane structures.

Architectural membrane are now used in the roof of large span structures throughout the world with the merits of free shape and lightness. Some membrane have some problems of structural capacity by the wind or snow load conditions, large span structures was shown to the tearing of the membrane. This paper is the experimental test on the stress strain curve of cycling load for the glass fiber membrane. In the result of stress strain relationship curve by the cycling load, glass fiber membrane was reduced the tensile strength, the polyester membrane was shown to occur the increase of displacement without load reduction in each load step.

This study is an evaluation of the water-tightness properties of rain-block systems in the sliding-roof joint of large-span membrane structures. In this study, we suggested a method of evaluating the water-tightness performance of the joint part of a sliding door in the roof of a large-span membrane structure (for a pilot project), in an environment of rain and wind. The shape of the rainwater blocking systems of the joint part in a sliding door verifies the defects and the effects of water leakage prevention when there is precipitation with wind conditions. To secure the water-tightness of large span membrane structures, it is necessary to have a guideline on the evaluation of the design for rain-block system of the joint part, and the quality of the membrane material, both of a retractable roof and a closed roof.
