It is very important to study on the structural behaviors of structurally damaged tunnel linings. A series of centrifuge model tests were performed in order to investigate different behaviors of tunnel linings. A 1/100-scaled aluminum horseshoe tunnel linings with a radius 5 cm, height 8 cm were buried in a depth with dry Joomunjin standard sand, the relative density of which was 86%. Such sectional forces as bending moments and thrusts along the tunnel circumference were measured by twelve strain gages. Earth pressures in soil mass and on the outside of lining model were estimated by pressure transducers, ground surface settlements at a center and edges by using LVDTs.

The lining concrete of water tunnel is a much capability to occur crack due to drying shrinkage and vibrator compaction etc. Because of crack of concrete induce structural problem and decrease durability of concrete, it is need to reduce crack of concrete. In this an Analytical study to analyze the effect of curing of concrete and compaction on the lining concrete. As the results, it was found that control of construction condition into curing of concrete and compaction improve on construction efficiency of the lining concrete.

Concrete member has been subjected to dead and live loads in use, and the induced stress can affect not only structural but also durability behavior. In mass concrete construction, construction joint are required, however cold joint usually occur due to poor surface treatment and delayed concrete placing. The concrete with joint is vulnerable to both shear stress and chloride ingress. This paper presents a quantitative evaluation of cold joint and loading conditions on chloride diffusion behavior. With increasing tensile stress from 30% to 60%, chloride diffusion coefficient gradually increases, which shows no significant difference from result in the sound concrete. However chloride diffusion coefficient under 30% level of compressive stress significantly increases by 1.70 times compared with normal condition. Special attention should be paid for the enlarged diffusion behavior cold joint concrete under compressive stress.

The blast demolition technology has been used to demolish various industrial facilities and tall buildings since 1950s in the advanced countries such as USA and U.K. It is now considered as one of safe demolition methods in the above countries. In Korea, several companies have tried to introduce blast demolition technology in the early days of the 1990s. However, this technology is still at the beginning stage and not fully adopted due to situation of avoiding technology transfer by overseas technical tie-up companies, lack of objects to be demolished and low level recognition on blast demolition. This technology shall be considered as a cutting edge technology to be applicable to demolition of skyscrapers, various industrial structures and factory buildings in the near future. Blast demolition of a pier structure was carried out under the site condition where there were already the constructed 2 pier structures of up and down line which had safety problems in an expressway construction project. The pier structures need to be demolished and reconstructed for a short period of time in consideration of the construction work process to be followed.

Through field surveys and evaluation on several widened concrete pavements, issues on construction and design related problems are broken down into three categories to be discussed; poor smoothness, influence of traffic vibration on concrete curing, and poor connection to the existing pavement. There are many places where about 100mm only of the marginal strip is removed and where defects such as widening and faulting are observed. Also cracks arise again from the patched areas due to stress concentration near the joint. Roughness on the widened concrete pavement was evaluated and there are some stations where the smoothness limit is over passed. For design consideration, shortage of the required force in the tie-bar is expected in case of road widening specially from 3 lanes to 4 lanes. Finally the average pull-out force of specimens made from the current practice was about 57% of the required force. New connecting methods were suggested in this study.

In this study, we carried out investigation and analysis on damages in tunnels on order to provide the basic information for the safety assessment of tunnels and to minimize the potential damage of the same kind as investigated. The frequencies of occurrence in terms of 4 items, i.e., service life interval, type of the damage, cause of the damage, and geological condition, were examined and summarized based on 44 foreign and domestic cases of tunnel damages. Also, we carried out a survey research of which the content included 28 questions on the tunnel safety assessment. The answers collected from domestic experts in tunneling suggested that the most probable cause of the tunnel damages was cracking in tunnels at 42~58%. They also suggested that the poor constrution work strongly caused the damages. Therefore, to ensure tunnel safety, high quality of constrution should be maintained as examined. The types of damage and their extent of influence on the overall tunnel safety are of practical importance to be used in the artficial intelligent system for tunnel safety assessment.

In this research, we embarked on a meticulous analysis of the challenges inherent in real-world scenarios relating to the durability design standards of engineered concrete structures and the assessment of carbonation durability in concrete guidelines. Our investigation brought to light substantial issues concerning constructability and quality assurance. The genesis of these problems is the exclusive application of prescribed strength to exterior walls, neglecting other elements to facilitate smoother licensing procedures. While this methodology aims to mitigate financial constraints in alignment with enhanced standards, it invariably invites complications. Furthermore, it is imperative to resolve the uncertainty surrounding durability evaluations by establishing a clear and definitive objective. Alongside this, actionable steps must be formulated to forestall the emergence of fissures between the floors of residential buildings, particularly apartment complexes. It is equally essential to tackle issues connected to application by devising a comprehensive management strategy for potential cracking during the phase of maintenance.

설계 하중이 큰 대형 구조물의 기초로 많이 사용되는 현장타설말뚝은 현장에서 지반을 굴착하여 조립된 철근망을 삽입한 후, 콘크리트를 타설하여 제작되므로 복잡한 시공 과정과 현장의 특수한 지하수 및 지반 조건으로 인하여 현장타설말뚝의 내부에는 결함이 포함될 수 있다. 발생 가능한 대표적인 결함으로 연약한 말뚝 선단, 말뚝체 콘크리트의 품질 저하, 말뚝과 지반의 접촉 불량, 주 철근의 부식 등이 있으며, 이들 결함을 감지하기 위한 건전도 시험법으로 공대공초음파 검층, 충격반향시험, 충격응답시험, 감마-감마 검층법 등이 있다. 결함은 말뚝의 수평지지력을 감소시키며, 일반적으로 발생하는 비대칭단면 결함에 의한 응력 집중현상과 수평 하중에 의한 휨모멘트는 연직지지거동에 영향을 준다. 따라서 결함을 감지하고 평가하는 것이 현장타설말뚝의 품질관리에 있어 매우 중요하다.

The construction road work are increasing now. And the domestic slope construction are steadily increased and changed the complicated and large-scale. Therefore ground reinforcement for slope stabilization has been increasingly used during the past few decades with a wide variety of techniques including soil nailing, rock bolt, anchor and different types. But in some cases which applied slope reinforcement construction by badness or mistake. So this paper is the study of construction badness for slope reinforcement.
