The purpose of this study is to explore a safe, advanced, and environment-friendly demolition equipments and their operation methods. As an initial achievement, the capacity of the existing equipments have been evaluated through technical discussions and demonstrations with some experts in the related industry. From these evaluations, it was concluded that a haptic based remote control with force feed-back mechanism and sensor fusion functions would be the most appropriate to the demolition equipments. Therefore, a novel haptic device that is adequately designed for the demolition equipments is proposed in this paper. Top-down demolition method is also proposed, which is very effective in the demolition of high-rise buildings.

The time for form removal is an important factor for ensuring the safety and economical efficiency of concrete structures, because it affects the quality, period, and cost of construction. Although local specifications suggest the form curing time, there is a problem of low quality of concrete due to early removing of form. This is because they do not fully understand effect of curing condition, and they want to shorten construction period in the field. Therefore, this research evaluates the effect of curing condition according to the time for form removal by testing specimen. As a result, the concrete compressive strength at the age of 28 days decreased about 40% in the condition of form removal after 12 hours, while the strength in the condition of form removal after 28 days decreased about 7%. Finally, this paper suggests an estimating equation for the concrete compressive strength due to the time for form removal considering various curing temperatures as equivalent ages. The proposed equation can be used in the field for evaluating the strength after form removal.

The neutron activation inventories in reactor vessel and its internals, and bio-shield of a PWR nuclear power plant were calculated to evaluate the effect of impurity elements contained in the structural materials on the activation inventory. Carbon steel is, in this work, used as the reactor vessel material, stainless steel as the reactor vessel internals, and ordinary concrete as the bio-shield. For stainless steel and carbon steel, one kind of impurity concentration was employed, and for ordinary concrete five kinds were employed in this study using MCNP5 and FISPACT for the calculation of neutron flux and activation inventory, respectively. As the results, specific activities for the cases with impurity elements were calculated to be more than twice than those for the cases without impurity elements in stainless and carbon steel. Especially, the specific activity for the concrete material with impurity elements was calculated to be 30 times higher than that without impurity. Neutron induced reactions and activation inventories in each material were also investigated, and it is noted that major radioactive nuclide in steel material is Co-60 from cobalt impurity element, and, in concrete material, Co-60 and Eu-152 from cobalt and europium impurity elements, respectively. The results of this study can be used for nuclear decommissioning plan during activation inventory assessment and regulation, and it is expected to be used as a reference in the design phase of nuclear power plant, considering the decommissioning of nuclear power plants or nuclear facilities.

건설공사의 공종 중 거푸집공사는 전체공사기간의 대략 25％를 차지하고 있으며 공사비 비율은 일반적으로 전체공사비의 10～15％, 철근콘크리트공사비의 20～30％를 차지하고 있어 구조물의 안전성, 경제성 및 작업성과 품질관리에 중요한 역할을 한다. 또한 거푸집은 콘크리트가 양생되면 곧 해체되는 가설구조물로써 작업상에서 많은 위험요소를 포함하고 있으며 특히, 아파트공사의 경우 전체 재해발생의 17％로 가장 높은 비율을 차지하고 있다. 이와 같이 거푸집공사는 가장 우선적으로 관리하여야 할 위험공종이며 전체공기를 좌우하는 주공정으로서 이를 재해발생의 측면에서 제어하는 것이 안전관리에 있어서 가장 효율적이며 큰 효과를 나타낼 수 있는 것으로 생각된다.(중략)

The objective of this study is to present the design approach of low $CO_2$ concrete structures for reduction of $CO_2$ emissions. The design approach was implemented considering the system boundary for each processing presented in the ISO 13315-2. As for life-cycle inventory(LCI) for $CO_2$ assessment of concrete structures, data provided from domestic LCI DB was used. Based on the process presented in this study, case studies on the life-cycle $CO_2$ assessment of shear wall concrete structure was conducted. As substitution level of GGBS is 25%, the amount of $CO_2$ emissions and $CO_2$ uptake by concrete carbonation was decreased in the material, demolition and crushing, and transport phase. The amount of $CO_2$ emissions of column and total member was decreased by 26% and 22% respectively, compared to that of OPC.

철골구조물은 일반 철근 콘크리트 구조와는 달리 단순히 천공을 하고 폭약을 장약하여 기폭시키는 방법으로는 해체 또는 절단이 어렵다. 국내의 경우 최근 철골 구조로 건축되는 강교와 건축물 등이 증가하는 추세이며, 내구연한이 다하거나 구조적 결함으로 인하여 해체 대상으로 지목되는 철골구조물에 대해서는 특수한 형태의 해체 기술을 필요로 한다. 1997년 이후 국내에 철골구조물의 발파해체를 위하여 성형폭약에 의한 폭발절단기술에 관한 연구가 소개된 이후로 폭발절단력에 미치는 성형폭약의 라이너(Liner), 폭약의 종류, 형상 및 이격거리(Stand-off distance) 등에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어졌으며, 또한 국산화를 위한 기초적인 설계변수에 관한 연구 등이 보고 된 바 있다. 현재 성형폭약의 사용범위가 철골구조물의 절단해체 뿐만 아니라 긴급구조를 필요로 하는 특수한 용도나 군사폭약의 해체, 항공산업 등 그 적용범위가 확대되고 있는 실정이다. 그러나, 성형폭약의 성능 향상 및 품질 보증을 위한 체계적인 설계 변수의 검토 설정에 관한 연구와 산업f'의 적용을 위한 구체적인 결과는 보고 된 바 없는 실정이다. 그래서, 보다 체계적인 현장 적용 시험 등에 대한 연구가 효율적으로 진행될 경우 국내 고유 기술에 의한 철구조물의 절단 및 해체공법에 획기적인 변화를 가져올 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 국산화되어 현장에 적용되고 있는 성형폭약 HAKO 제품을 기준으로 이미 국내에 알려진 성형폭약과 비교 분석하였다. 또한 보다 효율적인 산업계의 적용을 위한 각종 시험 결과 및 국산화 현황과 향후 활용 방안 등에 대하여 소개하고자 한다.

In construction site, conventional methods such as jackhammer or explosive methods(dynamite) have been often used for the demolition of structures. Use of those methods are more carefully treated in environmentally and historically sensitive area. For those reasons, use of Soundless Chemical Demolition Agent(SCDA) is getting the spotlight. The SCDA is a powder which has expansive strength when it is mixed with water. In these Characteristics, SCDA can destroy the concrete or rock as it is poured into boreholes of the concrete or rock structures. However, there is no industrial standard for the use of SCDA effectively yet. In this study, experimental study to measure the expansive pressure was conducted depending on various boundary conditions such as waterproof, length of the steel pipe, submerged of steel pipe. Furthermore, computational analysis using damage plasticity model to predict the minimum required pressure of the SCDA for the concrete demolition depending on spacing between holes(k-factor) and compressive strength of the concrete was conducted. Obtained results indicates that water heat dissipation with submerged steel pipe shows the stable pressure for measuring the SCDA and hole distance(k-factor) is the most important factor for crack initiation of concrete.

The present study proposes a phased model to assess the lifecycle $CO_2$ amount of concrete structures. The considered system boundary is from cradle to recycling, which includes constituent material, transportation, batching and mixing in ready-mixed concrete plant, use and demolition of structure, and crushing and recycling of demolished concrete. The $CO_2$ uptake of concrete by carbonation during lifetime (40 years) of a structure and the recycling life (20 years) after demolition is estimated using a simple approach generalized to predict the carbonation depth from the surfaces of concrete element and recycled aggregates. Based on the proposed phased model, a performance evaluation table is realized to straightforwardly examine the lifecycle $CO_2$ amount of concrete structures. The proposed model demonstrates that the contribution of ordinary portland cement (OPC) to lifecycle $CO_2$ emission of the concrete structure occupies approximately 85%. Furthermore, the $CO_2$ uptake is estimated to be approximately 15~18% of the lifecycle $CO_2$ emissions of concrete structures, which corresponds to be 19~22% of the emissions from OPC production. Overall, the proposed $CO_2$ performance table is expected to be practically useful as a guideline to determine the $CO_2$ emission or uptake at each phase of concrete structures.

In order to recycled wast concrete which is occurred from demolition of the old building, it is effective that the recycled aggregate used as structural concrete aggregate. For used recycled aggregate with structural concrete, the structural capacity must be confirmed. This Study investigated bond capacity which follows in difference of absorption of the aggregate between rebar and concrete. Test results show that there are not a difference of bond strength and slip behavior according to absorption ratio of natural and recycled coarse aggregate.

공사현장에서 사용하고있는 거푸집의 대체를 오랫동안 연구 끝에 가로(60cm) 세로(120cm)의 규격의 PE-FORM을 개발한바 있으나, 일반 건설 현장에서 어떠한 형태의 구조물 시공을 위한 형틀을 제작함에 있어 통상적으로 기존 합판거푸집을 사용하고 있으나, 현재 국내에서 사용되고 있는 합판은 전량 수입에 의존하고 있어 외화낭비가 심할 뿐 아니라 평균 2-3회 정도밖에 사용하지 못해 자원 낭비를 초래하고 있으며, 합판 거푸집을 사용한 경우, 목공이 구조물의 형태에 맞춰 FORM을 일일이 제작해야하므로 시간과 비용의 소모가 크고 또한 FRP-FORM, EURO-FORM, STEEL-FORM GANG-FORM SYSTEM-FORM 등 구조물의 성격 형태에 따라 각종 개량된 거푸집을 사용한다고 해도 그것은 단순한 구조물의 형상을 만들어 내기 위한 형틀로써만이 이용되고 있을 뿐, 그 이상의 목적으로는 활용 할 수 없기 때문에 구조물의 특성상 방수 방식의 기능이 요구될 경우, 거푸집 해체 후 벽체의 내부 또는 외부에 액체, 몰탈, 에폭시, 쉬트 방수등 별도의 후속 공정이 추가되 번거로움이 있는 반면, 그 효과는 기대에 크게 미치지 못하고 있는 점을 착안, 수년 전부터 연구에 착수, 콘크리트 구조체의 방수ㆍ방식 문제를 해결 할 수 있는 획기적인 공법의 PE-PANEL의 요철형 거푸집 및 방수ㆍ방식공법을 개발해내는데 성공함으로써 지금까지 난제로만 여겨졌던 목재 거푸집의 대체 자재개발과 아울러 거푸집 겸 콘크리트 표면의 마감 처리을 동시에 해결한 매우 혁신적인 신기술이라 할 수 있다.
