Laboratory tests have revealed that the liquefaction resistance of sands depends strongly upon the degree of saturation, which is expressed in terms of the pore pressure coefficient, B. The velocity of compression waves(i.e. P-waves), which have been known to be influenced largely by the degree of saturation and can be measured conveniently in the field, appears as an indicator of saturation. In this paper, the Stokoe type torsional shear(TS) testing equipment is modified to saturate the specimen and measure the velocities of P-wave and S-wave and pore pressure buildup. The velocities of P-wave and S-wave for Toyoura sand from Japan is measured and compared at the various B-value (degree of saturation) which are partially saturated to fully saturated conditions. Additionally, the variation of the pore water pressure induced during undrained TS tests at the various B-value is measured and analyzed.

Reasonable methods are needed to predict the noise level of new/existing roads and to select means of noise reduction. In this study, the noise reduction effects of both soundproof walls and quiet pavements were predicted. The noise reduction effects of quiet pavements were predicted by measurement data obtained using the CPX method in test pavements. The noise reduction effect was predicted by KHTN program when applied to soundproof walls and quiet pavement. As a result, the predicted noise level was similar to the measured one. The design method was suggested by an economic analysis using noise benefit of predicted noise reduction. The research suggests that the optimum alternative has to be determined using noise prediction method and life-cycle cost analysis.

The skid resistant of pavement surface is an important parameter since it is directly related to the traffic safety under moving vehicular loads. In particular, it should be considered as a major factor in pavement performance evaluations to reduce the traffic accident from vehicular sliding. In this study, a portable and an automatic skid resistance tests were used to evaluate the skid resistances of the in-situ pavements. The test results showed that the skid resistance of the conventional dense graded pavement was more noticeable than the other pavement types such as the drainage pavement and the stone mastic asphalt(SMA) pavement as the service life of pavement was increased.

Due to the increasing concern about climate change, efforts to reduce environmental load are continuously being made in construction industry, and life cycle assessment (LCA) is being presented as an effective method to assess environmental load. Since LCA requires information on construction quantity used for environmental load estimation, however, it is not being utilized in the environmental review at the initial design stage where it is difficult to obtain such information. In this study, a construction quantity computation system based on the standard section was developed for the drainage facilities of the road and utilized in the model to calculate the environmental load. This model can estimate the environmental load by calculating the amount of resources required for LCA using only the information available at the initial design stage. To verify the validity of the model, five validation cases were applied and compared with the unit estimation model and the multiple regression analysis model. As a result, it is confirmed that the mean absolute error rate is 9.94%, which is relatively accurate and effective model in the initial design stage.

도시화로 인한 생활, 공업, 농업용수의 수요는 증가하지만, 이를 해결하기 위한 댐 건설은 생태계의 단절, 수몰 지역 생성 등의 이유로 비판적인 여론이 많아 신규 수자원 확보가 어려워지고 있다. 따라서 우리는 신규 수자원을 확보하기보다 기존 수자원의 물관리 체계를 개선하고 합리적인 물 배분 기술을 개발할 필요가 있다. 이중 농업용수의 회귀 수량에 대하여 알아볼 필요가 있다. 수리 시설물에서 공급된 농업용수는 전량 작물에 의해 소비되는 것이 아니며, 포장으로 공급되지 않고 용수로를 통해 배수되기도 한다. 포장으로 공급된 수량은 물꼬를 넘어 배수되기도 하고, 일부는 침투되어 지하수를 통해 흘러나가기도 한다. 이 와 같이, 농업용수 공급량 중 소모되지 않고 하천으로 유입되는 수량을 관계 회귀 수량이라 한다. 따라서 본연구에서는 농업에 소모되지 않고 하천으로 유입되는 회귀수량을 정확히 조절할 수 있도록 농업용수 회귀수량을 계산하는 모델을 구현하였다. SWMM(Storm Water Management Model)은 도로, 도랑, 관로, 초지 등 주로 도시지역의 강우-유출-지표면 유출을 해석하는 모델이며 농지의 수로네트워크 특성을 잘 반영할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 이번 연구에서는 용수로를 개수로로 고려하여 테스트베드 모형을 구축할 것이다. SWMM은 농업용수 물순환 모의를 위해 이미 활용되고 있으나 논에서의 증산량이 미반영되며 수혜지역 내의 지하수위가 미반영 되는 등 정확한 물순환 모의를 위해서 한계점 개선이 필요하다. 이 한계점 개선을 위해서 회귀수량 공식을 c언어로 구현 후 EPA SWMM의 소스코드를 활용하여 회귀수량 추정이 가능한 SWMM을 구현하였다. 해당 연구를 통해 농업용수의 회귀수량을 계산하여 정확한 물수지 분석이 가능하여 농업지역의 수자원 확보에 도움을 줄 것이다.

This study presents the experimental results of pervious blocks subjected to a series of unique inflow conditions in urban area. The measured properties include the strength, permeability, drainage capacity and runoff, and evaporation for blocks made of two different size of aggregates. Results revealed that the strength satisfies the Korean Standard regardless of aggregate size whereas the immediate runoff occurred for the block with small size aggregate. On the other hand, the block with large aggregates allowed the drainage upon the initial inflow condition, which became hampered to induce the runoff by subsequent inflow. It was attributed to the fact that the capillary water often served as the hydraulic barrier in partially saturated condition. The salient observation indicated that the runoff highly depended on the evaporation and pre-wetting condition as well as the porosity and pore connectivity. The bilinear evaporate rate that makes the degree of saturation vary also had great influence on deterining the time-dependent runoff.

The resolution issue of wetness index with relaxation of the steady state assumption is explored on the platform of Digital Elevation Model (DEM). The variabilities of the quasi-dynamic wetness index and the dynamic wetness index are discussed on the base of the spatial and statistical aspects depending upon resolutions of DEM and the drainage time. The organization patterns of the wetness index can be observed upon various drainage times and pixel size. The transient behaviour of wetness patterns of the Sulmachun watershed are shown in the relatively short drainage time. The statistical analysis of the quasi-dynamic and dynamic wetness analysis provide the convergence of analysis results to the steady state characteristics later than 10,000 hours drainage time. The probability density functions of the quasi-dynamic and the dynamic wetness index shows the existence of the threshold pixel size of DEM which provide stability and consistency in the computation result of these two wetness index.

Drainage is needed to run off excessive water stress during the rainy season for soybean cultivation in the converted upland from paddy field. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of planting dates and drainage methods on growth and yield of sprout soybeans in the converted upland from paddy field. The stem and root growth at flowering stage showed no difference by drainage method but plant height, number of nodes and branches, and fresh weight of stem and root were much greater as planting date delayed. Seed yield was correlated positively with fresh weight of stem and root, and T/R ratio at the flowering stage, respectively. Lodging degree was not different by drainage method but was higher in planting at June 16 than May 15. Number of pods and 100 seed weight were not different by drainage method and 100 seed weight was heavy in Eunhakong, light in Kwangankong as planting date delayed. Higher seed yield was observed in surface drainage than open ditched drainage. Yield performance of Eunhakong was good in late planting, while that of Kwangankong was in early planting.
