The failure of the road cut-slope due to heavy rains brings about lots of injuries and damage on national properties. KICT has developed CSMS system by means of prevention to manage the dangerous cut slopes. In spite of the continuous management the frequency of cut-slopes failure is increasing the past due to changes of earth-environment. KICT has installed the "Real-Time Monitoring System" on dangerous slopes. The operation of Real-Time Monitoring System is used as a positive system to reduce injuries and damages. However, Although the slope manager is aware of the signs collapsed in advance, it has temporal and spatial limits until the slope manager performs the works which are preventing the accidents. When real time monitoring system finds out an indication of slope collapse, the Rock-fall Signal Lamp System makes road-users indicated the risk of cut slopes. It is a kind of prevention system that it will minimize the damages of the properties as suspension of traffic automatically or passively.

The purpose of this study is to suggest performance levels, a test method, and assessment criteria for the performance assessment to allow standardized tests for rockfall protection systems. The range of rockfall impact energy was determined by using domestic rockfall data and a total of 9 performance levels from 50kJ to 1500kJ were suggested. The performance assessment is implemented by two types of full-scale free-fall impact tests to investigate the serviceability and the maximum capacity as in European and American standards. It was considered to be reasonable that the specimens of rockfall protection systems consist of 3 spans and the concrete block of a polyhedron with 26 faces, similar to spheres, impacts at the center of a center span. Assessment criteria were constructed to investigate whether a rockfall penetrated rockfall protection systems and whether the deformed specimen encroached on the roadway or obstructed the vehicle traffic.

In order to develop a new rockfall protection fence using high carbon steel wire rod (HSWR) material instead of the conventional wire rope material, the author has conducted the laboratory strength tests of both materials and their connections, and carried out evaluation of absorbing rockfall energy through the vertical field rockfall tests. The vertical filed rockfall tests showed that the new rockfall protection fence with 12 rows of the HSWR could absorb more rockfall energy than 50 kJ which stands for the typical design criteria. In addition, when the quantity of HSWR was increased up to the 16 rows, the capacity of absorbing energy was greatly improved. The new rockfall protection fence was successfully applied to the highway rock-cut slope. As a result of the filed application, its constructability was similar to the conventional fence, but its total image was improved as simple and clean. The total construction cost was saved up to 20% in comparison with the conventional one.

우리나라는 계절적 특성으로 인하여 겨울에서 봄에 이르기까지 도로포장의 동결 융해가 반복되어 도로 파손을 유발 시키고 있다. 동결 융해로 인한 피해를 줄이기 위하여 도로포장 설계시 동상방지층을 별도로 설치를 하고 있으나 실효성 검증 없이 무분별하게 적용되고 있어 국가적으로 예산을 낭비하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 효과적인 동상방지층의 설계를 목적으로 계측된 온도 및 함수비 데이터를 효율적으로 관리하고 모니터링하는 기반을 마련하고자 한다.

Rock sheds are a type of rockfall protection facility that is installed on the road near steep slopes, where large amount of rockfall is expected. Rock sheds are generally designed to resist approximately 200 kJ to 3,000 kJ of rockfall energy. In a previous study, a new type rock shed structure having a concrete-filled tube (CFT) main frame was proposed. By using CFT as the main frame in a rock shed, rapid construction is possible. Additionally, high load carrying capacity and ductility can be achieved. The behavior of the proposed rock shed structure was studied via elastic analysis with the equivalent static load of rockfall energy as in a previous study. However, it is necessary to investigate the behavior of the proposed rock shed in more detail with a full 3D finite element (FE) model considering realistic rockfall load. The FE model for the CFT rock shed main frame was developed first in this study. Then, the resistance of the CFT rock shed main frame Under ultimate rockfall energy was investigated.

The objective of this study is to provide systematic design of the Korea's Integrated Road Transport System in intelligent transport systems. Integrated Road Transport System services support safety driving and traffic information for travellers, and rapid response of the system for emergency status not only dissemination of traffic for traffic but also flood, heavy snowfall, falling rocks, closed-road, collapse, accident and so on. Therefore, integrated road transport system service contributes national highway safety management system to the voice of the nation of integrated road transport system center service for user friendly.
