Recently, offshore wind farms are increasingly expected, because there are huge resource and large site in offshore. Jeju island has optimum condition for constructing a wind energy farm. Unlike the mainland, Jeju island has stratified structure distribution between rock layers sediments due to volcanic activation. In these case, it can be occur engineering problems in whole structures as well as the safety of foundation as the thickness and distribution of sediment under top rock layer can not support sufficiently the structure. In this paper, the settlement and stress distribution is predicted by numerical analysis when the mono-pile base are constructed on various soft layer between stratified structure. To determine the settlement of the pile foundation supported on stratified rock layer, the geological investigation at the 3 regiions and the results of laboratory experiments of the stratified rock layer is required.

Recently, the projects which are to increase the capacity of the flood control are being actively performed because of the abnormal climate changes throughout the country. In this study, the regression analysis was performed using both Kelvin model and the real settlement measured at the crest of the existing concrete face rockfill dam(CFRD) to estimate the long-term deformation behavior characteristics such as creep which occurs without additional load. In addition, the effects on changes in physical properties (E, G, K) of the dam construction materials by deformation characteristics of the dam were evaluated, and the reasonable stability analysis method of the dam was proposed to obtain the long-term stability considering the changes in physical properties induced by the long-term deformation behavior in case of heightening the existing dams.

In this study the negative skin friction test of foundation pile was performed in order to monitor the negative skin frictional force acting on the steel pipe pile installed in soft soil. The monitored frictional stresses obtained from the long-term loading test. Through the long-term frictional stress monitoring test, the economical period for the construction of the superstructure was determined. The following conclusion were derived from this study: (1) In soft soil, negative skin friction increases with the increase in the rate of settlement. (2) In the friction relationship graph, the period where there is no frictional strain increase is verified and the time for the construction of the superstructure is determined. (3) The pile loading test was performed and the negative skin friction was compared with the test results. It was determined that the negative skin friction after driving was larger than the negative skin friction obtained from the loading test. 15 days after the construction, the monitored value was similar with the theoretical data. (4) It was determined that even during the occurrence of negative skin friction an economical construction management can be performed using the long-term monitoring method of negative skin friction.

Recently, the high speed railway comes into the spotlight as the important and convenient traffic infrastructure. In Korea, Kyung-Bu high speed train service began in about 400km section at 2004, and the Ho-Nam high speed railway will be constructed by 2017. The high speed train will run with a design maximum speed of 300-350km/hr. Since the trains are operated at high speed, the differential settlement of subgrade under the rail is able to cause a fatal disaster. Therefore, the differential settlement of the embankment must be controlled with the greatest care. Furthermore, the characteristics and causes of settlements which occurred under construction and post-construction should be investigated. A considerable number of studies have been conducted on the settlement of the natural ground over the past several decades. But little attention has been given to the compression settlement of the embankment. The long-term settlement of compacted fills embankments is greatly influenced by the post-construction wetting. This is called 'hydro collapse' or 'wetting collapse'. This wetting collapse problem for the compressibility of compacted sands, gravels and rockfills, has been recognized by several researchers. For this wetting settlement problem, we showed the test results carried out with 4 fill materials. These tests were performed under the condition that the fill materials were inundated at the first wetting. Subsequently, in this study, we investigated the long-term settlement characteristics of the fill materials under the repeated partial wetting and rising of the ground water table happend by rainfall.

The theory of consolidation has been achieved remarkable development, but associated properties are very difficult to determine in the laboratory. The theoretical shortcomings of those consolidation theories and uncertainties of associated properties make inevitably some discrepancy between theoretical and field settlements. Field settlement measurement by settlement plate is, therefore, widely used to overcome the discrepancy. Among the various methods of ultimate settlement predictions using field settlement data, hyperbolic method and Asaoka's method are most commonly used because of their simplicity and ability to give a reasonable estimate of consolidation settlement. In this paper, the applicability of hyperbolic method and Asaoka's method has been estimated by the analysis of the laboratory consolidation test and field measured data. It is shown that both hyperbolic method and Asaoka's method are significantly affected by the direction of drainage, and Asaoka's method is better to reflect the properties of the soft foundation than hyperbolic method.

In June of 1983 authors had investigated the occurrence of the avian malaria in the Humboldt penguins imported from Japan to the Farmland Zoo in central district of Korea. The disease was characterized by acute course and high mortality. The peripheral blood smears from the affected penguins demonstrated different developmental stages of Plasmodium sp. in the mature erythrocytes. The predominant gross lesions noticed were pulmonary and epicardial edema and hepato-splenomegaly. Microscopically the lesions were characterized by extensive reticuloendothelial cell hyperplasia with striking feature of exoerythrocytic schizogony affecting a variety of tissues. The report also signifies the first description of a disastrous epizootic of avian malaria in Korea.

Based on the proven feasibility of bottom ash and tire shred-soil mixtures as lightweight fill materials, tire shred-bottom ash mixtures were suggested as a new lightweight fill material to replace the conventional construction material with bottom ash. Therefore, we carried out the laboratory test, field compaction test and performance test of large scale embankment in order to evaluate their suitability for the use of lightweight fill materials in the before studies. We could verified that the ash, tire-shred and the mixture are able to be the useful materials as light fill materials. In this study, we estimated the long-term compressible settlements for 6 materials such as TA(Tire-Bottom Ash mixture), TBA(Tire-Bottom Ash<5mm) mixture, TWS(Tire-Weathered Soil mixture), Bottom Ash, Bottom Ash(<5mm), Weathered soils.

연약한 점토 지반에 안벽을 축조하고 매립하는 경우, 안벽의 기초로서 케이슨 기초공법이 종종 쓰이고 있다. 케이슨 기초는 안벽의 연직 하중을 지지층에 전달할 뿐만 아니라, 매립하중에 의한 연약 점토의 횡방향 소성 유동에 대하여는 매우 효과적인 공법으로 호안공사에서 그 사용 빈도가 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 반면 매립하중에 의해 점토지반에서 장기간에 걸쳐 발생하는 압밀침하에 대해서는 아무런 역할을 하지 못하는 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 케이슨 기초의 배면에 다수의 강관 배수공을 설치함으로써 과잉간극수압의 횡방향 소산을 촉진시켜 압밀 시간을 단축시키는 \"매립측 연약점토 압밀촉진 케이슨 기초공법\"을 제안하였다. 이 새로운 케이슨 공법의 압밀촉진 효과를 분석하기 위하여 2차원 압밀방정식의 해석해를 유도하였다. 연구결과, 등방성 점토에서 압밀촉진 케이슨 사용시 ξ=0.1인 단면에서 평균압밀도 50%, 90%에 이르는 시간이 기존 케이슨을 사용한 것에 비해 각각 약 7배, 3.5배 단축되는 것으로 나타났다. 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구의 목적은 DGPS 기법을 이용하여 장대교량의 거동을 모니터링하는 기술을 개발하는데 있다. GPS 센서를 이용한 교량거동 모니터링 기술은 다수의 GPS 센서를 시설물 외부에 설치하여 전체적인 거동상태를 모니터링 함으로써 순간적인 세부변위는 물론 장기간의 관측을 통한 기초침하, 크리프 릴렉세이션 등의 거동까지 실시간으로 모니터링 할 수 있는 기술이다. 본 연구의 최종 성과물은 안전관리 대상 주요 시설물의 거동을 비접촉 방식으로 감시하고 그 결과를 그래픽으로 화면을 통하여 사용자에게 제공함으로써 사용자의 직관적인 이해도를 높일 수 있을 것으로 기대되며, 장대교량, 터널, 댐, 건물 등 대형시설물의 거동을 효과적으로 감시하고 그 결과를 전송할 수 있어 광범위하게 사용이 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

터널의 방수형식은 배수형(Wet System)과 방수형(Dry System)으로 대별된다. 배수형은 터널의 아치부와 측벽부에만 방수막을 설치하고 이의 배면과 바닥으로부터 유입되는 지하수를 배수공을 통하여 배수처리하는 방식이며 경제성과 시공성이 우수하여 대부분의 도로 터널 및 지하철 등에 적용되어 왔다. 방수형은 터널의 주변장 전체를 방수시공하여 터널내로 유입되는 지하수를 완전히 차단하는 방법으로서, 이러한 방수형 터널은 경제성과 시공성은 불리하나, 지하수위 저하에 따른 압밀침하나 생태계 파괴 방지, 터널의 장기적 환경보전 및 운영유지비 감소 등의 이유로 최근 상당수의 도심지 지하철 터널에 계획되어 시공중에 있다.
