In this study, we analysed the effect of the fire source in the warehouse under the bridge and the height of the bridge using FDS code. To compare accuracy of simulation results, we simulated the experimental result with unit combustibles which is heptane as well as the mock-up test. Using this method, we evaluated the fire safety of the bridge which contains spalling and strength damage of concrete as well as damage of reinforcements according to the fire source and the height of the bridge. Most of the bridges are vulnerable to spalling of concrete. The book combustion has the strongest fire intensity which is expected to damage the bridge less than 30m height in the three types of the fire sources. The bridge over the 30m height can ensure the fire safety in the case of the rubber combustion.

This paper evaluated the optimum Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) using a circular concrete bridge pier subjected to dynamic loading. A three-dimensional finite element model was simulated using finite element program, ABAQUS. Concrete Damage Plasticity (CDP) option and plastic properties of the materials were incorporated to model the non-linearity of the structure. The analyses parameters were changed in length-to-height ratio and width-to-span ratio where columns were subjected to dynamic loading. Numerical analysis was conducted, and the seismic performance of the structures were evaluated by analyzing the ductility behavior of the structure. Results showed that the use of CFRP enhances the structural performance of column and revealed that the increase in length-to-height ratio plays vital role of improving the performance of the structure than the change in width-to-span ratio.

The insertion loss of the noise barriers with several top shape is measured in an anechoic room by using a reduced scale model test. The insertion loss differences between a straight vertical barrier having 0.3 m height and several barriers with simple top shaped are compared. The results show that the latter is more effective than the former and absorptive barrier is more effective than the reflective one. Among the barrier types of 'T', 'Y', and '(equation omitted)', type 'Y' is the best one and the rest have similar effect. This result is well agree with Alfredson (PIOC. Inter-Noise 95, p. 381, 1995)'s but contradict to May (J. Sound Vb. 71, p. 73, 1980)'s. Therefore, it is difficult to determine which type is the best. In order to find out this discrepancy, boundary element method is adopted and the result shows one can have different result because each supposed different experimental conditions like height of noise barrier, positions of sound source and receiver, etc.

Focusing effect of a metallic layer in a severe accident depending on the aspect ratios and cooling conditions of top plate and side wall was investigated. Experiments were carried out for Rayleigh numbers and aspect ratio in the range of $8.49{\times}10^7{\sim}5.43{\times}10^9$, 0.135~0.541 respectively. In order to achieve high Rayleigh numbers, the heat transfer experiments were replaced by mass transfer experiments based on the heat and mass transfer analogy. A sulfuric acid-copper sulfate ($H_2SO4-CuSO_4$) electroplating system was adopted as the mass transfer system. The experimental results agreed well with the Rayleigh-Benard natural convection correlations of Dropkin and Somerscales and Globe and Dropkin. When compared with the standard Rayleigh-Benard problem, the cooling by the side wall is even higher than the top. For a shorter height, the interaction between the heated and cooled plumes increases due to decrease of the height. Thus, the heat transfer increases.

This paper describes external and internal stability of reinforced earth wall using large-scale modular block and geogrid reinforcement. The evaluation for external and internal stability was conducted to analyze effect of wall height, reinforced soil (or backfill soils) and reinforcement strength. The external stability showed that the analysis cases were satisfied with design criteria, when the required minimum length and vertical spacing of reinforcement were 0.7H and 1m, respectively. The internal stability conformed that some cases were satisfied with design criteria in $25^{\circ}$ of internal friction angle of reinforced soil. Expecially, it will be applicable as wall structure considering a structural stability and economic efficiency based on evaluation of internal stability.

In this study the inelastic behavior of the existing school buildings with infilled masonry walls is analysed by pushover method. The shear stiffness and strength of masonry wall is calculated from the prior experimets and verified by inelastic analysis. The height of infilled masonry wall affects the structural behavior. The higher the masonry wall height, the higher the initial shear stiffness and strength of masonry wall. As the cracks are developed, the strength of masonry wall is much decreased. The proposed inelastic analysis method shows similar results with the experiments and can be used as inelastic analysis model of reinforced concrete buildings with infilled masonry walls.

Urban Skyline is strongly influenced by high-rise buildings. It is changed and becoming over time and is formed by the human choice. This study does an analysis of the foreign urban skyline managements in three aspects: criteria and control, operation and deliberation, and citizen participation and inducement. It draws common characteristics of foreign cases; preparing rational and premeditated building height control in the aspect of district, transformation from height restrictions of individual building to height standards in the aspect of urban landscape, devising efficient design review and citizen participation methods, and administrative processing for an integrated building height management. It also suggests policy implications for preparing both comprehensive and systematic building height standards in the aspect of district to create a desirable city image and urban skyline.

경사가 급한 산지하천은 대부분 전석이 산재한 자갈하상으로 되어 있다. 전석은 계곡이나 사면에서 발생한 토석류의 일부로 하천에 유입하여 하류로 이송되는 중에 하상에 퇴적된다. 이후 발생하는 홍수에 따라서 거대 전석은 단속적 이동하기 때문에 하천 흐름을 방해하는 돌출장애물로서 기능하는 경우가 많다. 본 연구에서는 개수로 흐름의 장애를 유발하는 돌출물이 경계층 높이에 어떤 영향을 미치는 지를 파악하기 위하여 장애물 돌출높이의 변화가 경계층고에 미치는 영향을 수리실험으로 조사하였다. 본 연구인 경계층분포 실험은 폭 0.6m, 길이 9m인 순환식 유량공급 개수로에서 진행하였으며 실제 경계층 측정 길이는 폭 0.6m, 최대 길이 1.2m, 수심 0.2m이다. 개수로에 돌출장애물을 부착 후 3차원 유속계를 이용하여 유속을 측정하였다. 유속계의 측정간격은 수로 방향, 폭 방향, 수심방향으로 각각 1cm씩 이동하며 유속 u, v, w를 측정하였으며 이때 흐름의 평균유속은 0.51m/s이다. 실험에 사용된 돌출 장애물의 크기는 가로와 세로는 6cm, 길이 6~10cm인 직육면체 콘크리트이다. 포설된 하상재료의 평균입경은 20.5mm의 강자갈이며 포설된 높이는 평균 20.5mm이다. 실험방법은 개수로 바닥에 돌출장애물을 부착 후 그 하류에서 수심, 유량, 유속, 수온을 측정한다. 또한 하상재료를 포설하고 위와 같은 방법으로 실험을 진행 후 결과를 비교, 분석한다. 본 연구는 결과를 정리하면, 동일한 높이의 돌출장애물이 있을 경우 개수로 유속분포는 자갈하상에서 기울기가 더 급하였다. 돌출 장애물에서 하류로 갈수록 무차원 경계층 두께는 감소하는 경향을 보였으나 자갈하상인 경우에는 진동을 나타내고 있어서 하상의 조도가 경계층 안정에 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 자갈하상과 같이 하상의 조도고가 클 때 경계층 변화에 미치는 기구를 파악하는 연구가 필요하다.

In this study, basic data that can be referenced for ventilation modeling was presented by analyzing the characteristics of wind pressure coefficients(Cp) according to wind direction angles under conditions of different building layouts and aspect ratios through CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis for flat-type apartment complexes. In the case of a wind direction angle of 0°, Cp distribution in the form of an inverted S-shape was shown on the front of the building located on the windward side. And Cp corresponding to the lowest floor, the uppermost floor, and the two inflection points showed relatively close values regardless of the height of the building. The inflection point of the low-rise part was formed at a height of about 11m, and the height of the high-rise part could be calculated through a trend formula proportional to the height of the building. It was confirmed that the averaged Cp value can be applied in most conditions except for the wind direction angle of 45 degrees.

The Purpose of this study is to find the adjustment of the minimum height regulation district in Busan metropolitan city. For this purpose, data of buildings in the minimum height regulation district are collected and analysed. Especially, detailed data of buildings in CBD are analysed. The results of this study provide that CBD's average building height is the fourth floor and the ratio that a building less than the fourth floor holds in total building is 51%. In the case of central area, CBD's building height should be maintained and it is necessary to make the policy that reinforce limited height for the high land use and landscape management. Based on these findings this study suggests that the limit building height should put it up more than the seventh floor.
