Furnishing traffic safety information can contribute to providing hazard warnings to drivers, thereby avoiding crashes. A smart road lighting platform that instantly recognizes road conditions using various sensors and provides appropriate traffic safety information has therefore been developed. This study analyzes the short-term traffic safety improvement effects of the smart road lighting's tunnel traffic safety information service using surrogate safety measures (SSM). Individual driving behavior was investigated by applying the vehicle trajectory data collected with RADAR in the Anin Avalanche 1 and 2 tunnel sections in Gangneung. Comparing accumulated speeding, speed variation, time-to-collision, and deceleration rate to avoid the crash before and after providing traffic safety information, all SSMs showed significant improvement, indicating that the tunnel traffic safety information service is beneficial in improving traffic safety. Analyzing potential crash risk in the subdivided tunnel and access road sections revealed that providing traffic safety information reduced the probability of traffic accidents in most segments. The results of this study will be valuable for analyzing the short-term quantitative effects of traffic safety information services.

최근 건설 기술의 비약적인 발전으로, 국내외적으로 장대교량의 건설이 증가하고 있다. 이러한 장대교량들은 지속적인 안전성 관리가 필요하며 현재 국내 다수의 장대교량들에는 다양한 센서로 이루어진 구조건전성 모니터링 시스템이 설치, 운용되고 있다. 장대교량과 같은 대형 구조물의 물리적 상태를 정확하게 파악하기 위해서는 다수의 센서배치가 필요로 하지만, 이는 센서 자체의 비용뿐만 아니라 센서와 데이터 서버를 연결하는 케이블의 설치비용으로 인하여 상당히 제약을 받을 수 밖에 없다. 실례로 홍콩의 Tsing Ma 대교의 경우 350개의 센서를 설치하는데 약 8 백만불이 넘는 금액이 들었으며(Farrar 등, 2004), Celeby(2002)의 보고에 의하면 각 센서의 채널 당 케이블의 설치비용으로 약 5000불의 비용이 소모되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 센서와 이러한 불편함을 극복하기 위하여 자체 연산기능을 가지고 있는 스마트 무선 센서를 개발하고, 이를 해남과 진도를 잇는 연육교인 제 2 진도대교에 적용, 사장교의 구조 건전성을 저비용 및 높은 편의성으로 모니터링 하기 위한 테스트베드를 구축하였다.

Along with the emergence of technologies related to the 4th industrial revolution, all industry sectors are making efforts to dramatically increase productivity by actively introducing high-tech technologies. Recently, the MLIT (Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport) is trying to solve problems related to low productivity and high accident rate in the construction industry by applying the 4th industrial revolution technologies to infrastructure construction through smart construction R&D projects. This research was performed as part of the smart construction R&D project supported by MLIT, and the purpose is to develop a module that automatically generates moving paths for construction equipment based on the earthwork plan for road construction. The generated moving path can be used to provide safe and efficient paths for construction equipment and to support MC and MG to work efficiently. The moving paths for construction equipment are created based on the Visibility Graph and a case study is performed to show how the paths are generated based on a given construction site.

In high-risk workplaces where communication is not possible, such as deforestation, it is necessary to use equipment that monitors the worker's situation in real time and obtains information according to the worker's location in case of an emergency. This paper analyzes the development and demonstration experiments of smart hard hats for deforestation workers to maintain a safe working environment. The developed smart helmet identifies the location of the worker based on the UWB signal for location estimation, and it is necessary to keep the distance between the workers not too close. UWB, Gyro, and LoRa are used to communicate even in the communication shadow area. It is used to provide a safe working environment such as improved construction to reduce worker risks and risks in forest working environments.

Although the construction industry has become highly advanced, traditional accidents still occur on construction sites, prompting numerous studies and systems aimed at accident prevention using smart construction technology. This study is an exploratory investigation of utilizing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for safety management. The study aims to verify harmful and hazardous factors that UAVs can detect on construction sites, classify management factors, and define improvement measures to present a checklist for each process. Through this, we hope that smart construction technology will be further expanded and applied for on-site safety management.

In the era of AI, intelligent construction safety technologies are being introduced to the construction safety environment, but the application of AI has limitations due to the lack of accident images to learn in complex construction sites. In order to overcome this, we will introduce an intelligent risk detection system that dramatically improves risk detection accuracy by combining AI with digital twin technology, and introduce various cases.

Recently, many studies have been conducted for safety management in construction sites by incorporating computer vision. Anchor box parameters are used in state-of-the-art deep learning-based object detection and segmentation, and the optimized parameters are critical in the training process to ensure consistent accuracy. Those parameters are generally tuned by fixing the shape and size by the user's heuristic method, and a single parameter controls the training rate in the model. However, the anchor box parameters are sensitive depending on the type of object and the size of the object, and as the number of training data increases. There is a limit to reflecting all the characteristics of the training data with a single parameter. Therefore, this paper suggests a method of applying multiple parameters optimized through data split to solve the above-mentioned problem. Criteria for efficiently segmenting integrated training data according to object size, number of objects, and shape of objects were established, and the effectiveness of the proposed data split method was verified through a comparative study of conventional scheme and proposed methods.

Skid resistance pavement is an accessory to the road and is a facility for the safe driving of cars by increasing the skid resistance of road pavement. In particular, in bad weather conditions such as snow, rain, and black ice, the skid resistance performance of skid resistance pavement greatly affects the safety of road traffic and drivers. However, BPT(British Pendulum Tester) has a test area of only 0.009 m², making it difficult to represent the overall packaging surface. A reliable method of evaluating slip resistance performance is needed for maintaining non-slip packaging. In this study, the conventional BPT test and the skid resistance performance evaluation method of the PFT(Pavement Friction Tester) and µGT(Micro Grip Tester) tests were compared through guidelines and standard investigations and applied to the field skid resistance performance evaluation. In addition, skid resistance pavement with different skid resistance performance was installed at the test-bed and actual road demonstration sites to compare BPN(British Pendulum Number), SN(Skid Number), GN(Grip Number), and to derive correlations for each performance evaluation method. As a result of the experiment, SN and GN showed similar skid resistance performance, and the GN value was derived similar to BPN × 0.01.
