The paper presents the economic analysis of optimized-rehabilitation area method considered as one of the preventive maintenance methods in asphalt concrete pavement. The optimized-rehabilitation area was selected based on the analysis of traffic lane characteristics. The main concept of the selected method was to minimize the maintenance cost. The effective width of traffic lane in this method was 70 cm of each wheel path. According to the traffic survey conducted in this research, more than 95% of vehicles passed within the width of each wheel path. The new preventive optimized-rehabilitation area method showed less maintenance cost than the conventional overlay. In addition, traffic congestions and the user cost can be reduced. The research results revealed that the total maintenance cost was reduced by 35% by using the new method compare to the conventional one.

This paper presents minimum area repair method that is one of the preventive maintenance techniques in asphalt concrete pavements. In this method, a 70cm-width as an effective repair zone was suggested considering the conventional longitudinal damages (rutting and fatigue cracking) in early stages. In addition, the repair zone can be readjusted according to the pavement damage levels. A field test bed was constructed to verify the adaptness for the repair method. Test results revealed that the minimum area repair method can be adopted as a preventive maintenance technique in flexible pavements to recover an appropriate serviceability level. The preventive maintenance method may be one of the major maintenance methods of flexible pavements with an appropriate application. It is also noted that the method may be a long term maintenance cost effective and pavement life ensuring one.

The objective of this study was to investigate applicability of epoxy injection method to cracked RC beams and structural behavior of repaired RC beams considering pre-loading conditions. For this purpose, five test beams were fabricated under two experimental variables. The main variables of this experimental study were pre-loading conditions and repair methods. The two pre-loading conditions were selected as $70\%$ and $90\%$ of nominal strength and the repair methods were to repair the cracked RC beams under free loading after crack and sustained loading. The comparative study was executed to evaluate effects of pre-loading conditions on the structural behavior of the cracked RC beams after crack-repair. The strains of reinforcement and concrete and deflections of beams at each loading step were measured and evaluated. As the results of this study, repair methods have much influence on structural behavior of epoxy injected RC beams and epoxy injection method for cracks of RC structures is appeared to be efficient.

In this study, to solve the problems of the conventional crack repair and injection method, high elasticity latex was used as the material of the storage tube to withstand the high pressure in the center part differently from the general port. When the repair solution was injected into the crack part, The TPS method was developed so that the air existing in the TPS can be discharged. In addition, a new infusion port in which a valve blocking the backflow of the remediation solution was installed at the injection port was developed and the physical characteristics of the port were analyzed. As a result of the evaluation, it was found that the filling rate of the remedial solution was improved compared to the existing ordinary injector method, and the cracks were completely filled in the test conditions. Compressive strength and tensile strength after repair showed about 20% decrease after repair in case of using ordinary injector method, while TPS method showed about 2~7% increase after repair. The results of this study showed that the injection port method using the elastic storage tube increased the injection performance and the quality after repair compared to the conventional injector method. The result of this study is expected to be utilized as the basic data for application and commercialization of the result to the practical structure.

댐 및 저수지 시설물은 노후화나 안전성 미확보로 인한 파손 또는 붕괴 발생 시 하류부에 막대한 인명과 재산피해 등 치명적인 결과를 초래하게 된다. 이러한 대형 안전사고를 예방하고자 시설물의 안전관리에 관한 특별법에서는 댐 시설물을 규모별로 1, 2종 시설물로 구분하고, 이에 대해 주기적으로 안전점검 및 정밀안전진단을 실시하도록 제도화하는 한편 진단 결과에 따라 보수 보강 등의 안전조치를 의무화하고 있다. 구조물 결함에 따른 보수 보강은 보수재료와 공법 선정시 공법의 적용성, 구조적 안전성, 경제성 등을 종합적으로 검토하여 결정하여야 한다. 손상 부위에 대한 보수 보강은 제한된 예산과 인력을 효율적으로 투자하기 위해 보수재료 및 공법의 선정 뿐만 아니라 보수 보강이 이루어져야 하는 부재에 대한 우선순위를 산정하는 것이 최우선적으로 선행되어야 한다. 안전점검 및 정밀안전진단 세부지침에서는 보수 보강 대책 마련 시안전점검 및 정밀안전진단 결과를 기초로 하여 적정 재료 및 공법을 선정하고, 보수 보강의 수준 및 우선순위를 결정하도록 명시되어 있다. 하지만 우선순위 결정에 대한 가이드라인이 부재하여 불필요한 시공과 비효율적인 예산 투입으로 인해 국가예산의 낭비되고 시설물의 안전까지 위협받게 되는 경우가 발생하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 시설물의 상태에 따른 적절한 보수 보강 필요성을 판단하고 보수 보강 수준 및 우선순위를 결정하기 위한 방법론을 개발하였다. 댐 시설물에 대한 안전점검 및 정밀안전진단의 종합평가는 평가대상 개별시설에 대하여 상태 평가 및 안전성 평가를 실시한 후 그 결과에 의해 산출된 상태평가지수와 안전성평가지수를 비교하여 평가단계별로 그 결과를 취합하여 종합평가를 실시하고 있다. 따라서 상태평가에 의해 산정된 종합평가 결과를 이용하여 개별 부재의 상태평가값 산정을 위해 하부 단계의 가중치 및 평가 지수 역산하고, 재산정된 가중치 및 평가지수를 이용하여 각 부재에 대한 보수 보강 우선순위를 산정하고자 하였다. 개발된 방법론은 점검 진단 책임기술자 및 시설물 관리주체 담당자가 댐 시설물의 개별부재에 대한 보수 보강 실시 여부를 판정할 수 있는 기준으로, 보수 보강에 대한 정책 결정시 경제성을 고려한 신뢰도 있는 기준으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Currently the reasonability of threshold values for rutting and cracking does not clearly defined at the Pavement Rehabilitation Decision Tree on national highway PMS(Pavement Management System). The goal of this study is to provide the reasonable threshold values for the national highway asphalt concrete pavement rehabilitation. To achieve this goal, test section that represents typical asphalt concrete pavement of national highway was selected and pavement export were participated. Pavement condition survey has been conducted and pavement performance data at the selected roadway section were analyzed. From this study, reasonable threshold values of Pavement Rehabilitation Decision Tree were suggested based on the pavement expert's engineering judgement. In terms of crack repairs, the application of overlay after cutting is required to deteriorated area where existing crack ratio is over 35% and just overlay is required to where crack ratio is over 20%. On rutting, rut depth over 13mm is required to overlay after cutting and rut depth over 10mm is just needed to overlay.

Maintenance cost for managing the whole network of Expressway system in Korea increases rapidly with the increase of the total length of the system. Implementation of the Pavement Management System(PMS) is essential for efficient management of the Expressway with a limited budget. The purpose of this study is to develop the main algorithm of PMS for Korea Expressway System and to associate the algorithm with database and the Highway Geographic Information System(HGIS) recently developed. Emphasis is laid on developing the algorithm as easy as possible, so that the users can use the PMS without practical difficulty. PMS is not the decision maker, but just a supporting system for the user. The algorithm is designed in such a way that the users can modify the decision criteria if necessary. The user is the one who makes the final decision of the priority and the maintenance alternatives. The users can also inquire the current condition of the whole Expressway network in detail by association of the database and the algorithm with HGIS.
