A bridge scour management system is developed to evaluate the vulnerability of bridge piers to scour and to help establish effective disaster measures, taking into account the locality and scour characteristics in Korea. This system is programmed using the techniques of the geographical information system(GIS) for the storage, retrieval, and display of information regarding to bridge scour. The system functions are basically divided into two parts; prioritization and maintenance. Bridges are initially screened and prioritized for bridge scour inspection and evaluation using the basic information which is obtained from the office review. The bridge scour evaluation including site investigation is performed and the vulnerability of bridge piers is categorized into six groups taking into account the local scour depth, foundation bearing capacity, foundation type, foundation depth, and present scour condition. The system tabulates and plots all the data and the results.

We propose a weather-related service for fire risk assessment in order to increase fire safety awareness in everyday life. The proposed service offers a fire risk assessment level according to weather forecasts and a degree of fire risk according to fire factors under certain weather conditions. In order to estimate the fire risk, we produced a risk matrix through data mining with a decision tree using investigation data and weather data. Through the proposed service, residents can calculate the degree of fire risk under certain weather conditions using the fire factors around them. In addition, they can choose from various solutions to reduce fire risk. In order to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed services, we developed a system that offers the services. Whenever weather forecasting is carried out by the Korea Meteorological Administration, the system produces the fire risk assessment levels for seven major cities and nine provinces of South Korea in an online process, as well as the fire risk according to fire factors for the weather conditions in each region.

A traffic accident analysis method was developed and tested based on the highway alignment risk indices using geographic information systems(GIS). Impacts of the highway alignment on traffic accidents have been identified by examining accidents occurred on different alignment conditions and by investigating traffic accident risk indices(TARI). Evaluative criteria are suggested using geometric design elements as an independent variable. Traffic accident rates were forecasted more realistically and objectively by considering the interaction between highway alignment factors and the design consistency. And traffic accident risk indices and risk ratings were suggested based on model estimation results and accident data. Finally, forecasting traffic accident rates, evaluating the level of risk and then visualizing information graphically were combined into one system called risk assessment system by means of GIS. This risk assessment system is expected to play a major role in designing four-lane highways and developing remedies for highway sections susceptible to traffic accidents.

최근 도심지 침수예방을 위해 구조적 비구조적인 대책 등이 수행되어 왔으나, 도심지의 국지성 호우의 발생빈도가 증가함에 따라 단시간의 도심지 침수예측의 중요성이 다시 대두되고 있다. 이에 도심지 침수 예측을 위해서는 수치모의 프로그램을 사용한 연구가 진행되어 왔으나, 국지성 호우에 의한 침수를 막을 만킁의 실시간 위험예측은 아직까지 힘든 실정이다. 한편 해양재난의 침수를 예방하기 위해서 국립재난안전연구원(2017)에서는 과학적 보간법을 적용한 침수예측 모형인 SIND(Scientific Interpolation for Natural Disaster) Model을 개발한 바 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 SIND Model을 도심지 침수예측에 적용하여 집중호우와 같은 단기간의 침수를 예방하고자 한다. SIND Model은 기 구축된 침수예상도를 활용하여 모든 시나리오에 대한 침수 위험도 등급을 실시간으로 평가하는 모형이다. 국토부에서 제공하는 국가홍수위험지도와 내수침수지도를 활용하였고, SIND Model은 Comsol Multyphisic를 활용하여 침수예측지도를 생성하였다. 기존에 해양재난 예측을 위해 사용하였던 Risk Grade 방정식에 시간 항(time term)과 도심지의 최초 침수 발생위치에 생성 항(source term)을 추가하여 도심지 침수특성을 반영하였다. 결과를 평가하기 위하여 CRITIC(CRiteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation) 방법을 활용한 형상유사도를 산출하였다. 그 결과, 기 구축된 홍수위험지도와 형상유사도는 전체 구역 중 80%의 구역이 0.8 이상의 값을 나타내었다. 20%의 구역에서는 복잡한 도심지의 건물, 구조물 등의 침수특성을 반영하지 못하여 형상유사도가 낮게 평가된 것으로 판단되며, 향후 위험도 예측을 위해 배수시스템 등의 영향인자를 고려한다면 위험도 등급 예측의 정확도를 높일 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.

Recently, intentional arsons for exploitation and wildland fire caused by abnormal change of weather are increasing as well as the damage scale due to such fire in the world. The number of such big wildland fire is also increasing in Korea these days. Fire prevention activity can be said as more important than fire putting-out activity after a fire occurrence for the most effective way to cope with wildland fire, and the research on wildland fire prevention system is what we need to do urgently, In this study I examined and analyzed the experiments and data about the factors influencing wildland fire and stated the dangerousness of each factor for all of the 6 factors and set up the general dangerousness rating applying each factor's contribution to the dangerousness.

In order to evaluate the fire risk and fire risk rating of wood for construction materials, this study focused on fire performance index-III (FPI-III), fire growth index-III (FGI-III), and fire risk index-IV (FRI-IV) according to Chung's equations-III and -IV. Western red cedar, needle fir, ash, and maple were used as the specimens. The fire characteristics were investigated using a cone calorimeter (ISO 5660-1) equipment on the specimen. The FPI-III measured after the combustion reaction was 0.86 to 12.77 based on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). The FGI-III was found to be 0.63 to 5.26 based on PMMA. The fire rating according to the FRI-IV, which is the fire rating index, was 0.05 to 6.12, and the western red cedar was 122.4 times higher than that of the maple. The fire risk rating according to the FRI-IV increased in the order of maple, ash, needle fir, PMMA and western red cedar. The CO peak concentration of all specimens was measured as 103 to 162 ppm, and it was 2.1 to 3.2 times higher than 50 ppm, the permissible exposure limits of the US occupational safety and health administration. Materials such as western red cedar, which have a low bulk density and contain a large amount of volatile organic substances, have a low FPI-III and a high FGI-III, so they have a high fire risk rating.

Due to climate change, the occurrence of abnormal rainfall is increasing, and the intensity and scale of damage caused by heavy rain are increasing every year. In addition, as the frequency of heavy rains becomes more frequent, heavy rains often occur continuously, resulting in large flooding damage that has never been seen before in urban area. When near rivers and coastal areas are impermeable areas, the maximum flow increases rapidly as the rainfall intensity increases, so a comprehensive flood risk evaluation is needed considering the characteristics of the basin. In this study, the flood inundation risk evaluation was analyzed by giving scores on evaluation factors as a measure to prevent inundation in subway stations. Through the flood inundation risk evaluation process considering the comprehensive evaluation index, the flood risk evaluation was conducted on five urban railway stations with a large amount of traffic and floating population that had been inundated in the past. It is judged that by comprehensively analyzing this and establishing a inundation risk grade (grade 1 to 4) to establish a flood measure suitable for the risk grade.
