새로 개발한 철재 교량용 방호울타리는 기존 시설에 비해 충격흡수기능과 조망권 확보, 융설작업, 유지보수가 용이하도록 설계되었다. 본 연구는 새로 개발한 철재 교량용 방호울타리를 건설교통부의 $\ulcorner$도로안전시설 설치 및 관리지침 - 교량용 방호울타리 편. 1999$\lrcorner$ 의 설계기준에 따라 기존 고속도로에 사용하고 있는 F형 콘크리트 교량용 방호울타리와 성능비교를 통해 평가하고자 하였다. 비교평가는 S2급 교량용 방호울타리의 시험기준으로 실시하였으며 결과는 다음과 같이 나타났다. 첫째, 소형승용차를 대상으로 한 운전자의 안전도 평가에서는 두가지 시설 모두 강도성능, 충돌 후 차량 안전성능 구성 부재 비산 억제 성능 등 세 가지 기준을 만족하였으나, 가속도 기준에 있어서는 철재 교량용 방호울타리는 기준인 20g 이하인 18.2605g로 나타나 안전기준을 만족하였고, F형 콘크리트 교량용 방호울타리는 20.1791g로 나타나 기준을 약간 상회하는 것으로 나타났으나 안전기준의 범위에 있는 것으로 평가하였다. 둘째. 대형차량을 대상으로 한 방호울타리의 구조적 안정성 평가에 있어서는 F형과 철재 교량용 방호울타리 모두 평가기준에 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 새로 개발한 철재 교량용 방호울타리는 국내 최초로 모의충돌시험과 실물차량 충돌시험을 통해 개발하였다는 의의를 가지고 있으며 성능측면에서도 기존의 시설에 비해 충분히 안전하다는 것을 증명하였다. 그러나 측정시설의 미비로 충돌후의 차량의 이탈속도나 이탈각도에 대하여 만족할 만한 수준의 결과를 제시하지는 못하였다.

In this study a test was conducted to identify weak section using 100kJ class rock energy to find out the protection performance of rockfall prevention fences in Korea. Performance rating of the rockfall protection fences is very low (48~61kJ) compared to that of foreign countries and it is necessary to determine whether it can function properly if high rock energy is generated. Furthermore, a reinforcing technology that can improve to 100kJ energy on the existing rockfall protection fences should be developed. Therefore, this study confirmed the protection performance using 100kJ rock energy in the existing rockfall protection fence system (for national road, for highway) and identified weak section of post, wire ropes and nets. Furthermore, it will be used as basic data for developing 100kJ class reinforcement technology without dismantling the existing rockfall protection fence (48-61kJ).

In this study a hybrid safety barrier system consisting of steel rail and carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) post is considered. W hile CFRP post is selected for impact energy reflection due to its high strength, steel rail is selected for impact energy absorption due to its high ductility. A numerical model considering the elastoplastic behavior of steel is formulated to simulate the dynamic responses of the hybrid system subject to an impact load. A hybrid roadside guard rail system of steel rail and CFRP post is proposed and analyzed with a case study. The numerical model for the hybrid roadside guard rail system is used to find optimized design of the proposed hybrid system.

This study had targeted the Manjong Junction~Hongchun interchange section of Jungang highway in order to analyze the efficiency and improvement of the highway wild-life fences. Being analyzed wild-life fence as an effective facility for the prevention of road-kill, it had founded that the wild animals did not jump over even the two layer guardrail, concrete barrier and noise barrier, fence for rock fall. For the section with high road-kill decrease effect after installing the wild-life fence, the effect was higher at wild-life fence with the height of 1.0m where the door had not been installed and the well connected points of road facility than the area with fence height of 1.5m. The road-kill decrease effect was also high at the well managed areas even if the door has not been installed. Also, road-kill had occurred by concentrating around the end of wild-life fence after installing the fence, Moreover road-kill had also occurred around the cutting section. The door of wild-life fence had higher amount of road-kill occurrence as the installation interval was closer. it was analyzed that the door management has a lot of effect on road-kill decrease. The fence for rock fall, two layer guardrail and concrete barrier having the effect of wild-life fence installed on the road would have to be installed by connecting with wild-life fences through proper facility improvement. Although the door should not be installed if possible, it should be installed as automatic door or gravity door to prevent the door from leaving the door open. An escape route has to be formed for the prompt escape away from the road for the animals entered through the ending section of the fence. The eco-corridor has to be made by restoring the soil layer of dual purpose eco-corridor forming a planting area. Also, the dead body after the accident has to be disposed to the outer section of the road immediately in order to prevent the secondary road-kill by the predator from the road-kill. The fence has to be installed as 500m or longer in both ways, in other words 1,000m or longer, from the targeted spot of minimum accident prevention while connecting up to the bridge or box culvert, etc that are next road facilities if possible to guide wild animals safely to the eco-corridor.

The Government is implementing the safety measures for pedestrian in living zone to decrease the traffic accident casualties in half. It is urgently to study the guideline because it contains to make the guideline of a median strip in City to prevent the violation of central line and jaywalking on the main contents. So, this study analyzed the pedestrian accidents and the violation of central line, and studied the type of a median strip, the installation guideline through studying the minimum crossing. Consequently, this study found out that a median strip which revised the attention inducement stick to decrease jaywalking could not have the strong prevention function of a crash barrier, so if it happens separation after the collision between vehicles, it induced the secondary accidents, and could take negative effects on traffic safety. In consideration of driving safety, this study analyzed that if it installs a median stirp, it has to ensure one meter, and such a thing could prevent the separation of lane or damage of facilities. However, if it is hard to ensure the space because of narrow road width, it could install a median strip in case of installing the road surface mark 0.5m. And the installation of the attention inducement stick or a median strip on the central line could be possible to induce the violation of central line, thus it is desirable not to install only anythings but also raised pavement markers.

A study is to research crash barriers for vehicles that prevent road breakaway of vehicles and protect car passengers and pedestrians as absorbing impulse. Protection performance tests on vehicle passengers were simulated by using a LS-DYNA program. Through repetitive simulation on various speed and angles, passenger protection performance according to different impact condition was contemplated. Variable setting for the simulation was calculated as the mean weight of domestic car sales. By analyzing NASS (National Automotive Sampling System) of NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) of the U.S., the actual speed and collision angle section of accidents were computed. As a result, we confirmed that THIV (Theoretical Head Impact Velocity) and PHD (Post-impact Head Deceleration) are increased according to the impact speed and angle. Also, when the vehicle hit the guardrail post, we could be confirmed that the passenger protection performance greatly decreased.
