Unlike building construction projects, where the activity is repeatedly carried out in a limited area, civil engineering projects such as roads and railroads are carried out in a linear type in a horizontal working space over several tens of kilometers. Each activity is managed with a station number that has a unit of distance from the starting point to the end point. For this reason, since the work location information of the activity is a major management factor, the Gantt chart system that expresses only schedule information may have limitations. In this study, authors propose a method for constructing a linear schedule chart that can simultaneously express schedule information indicating the start and finish dates and location information indicating the start and end positions of each activity, and develop a system for generating a linear schedule chart. In the study, the coordinate axes of the linear schedule chart consisted of distance and date values on the X and Y axes, respectively, and each activity was expressed as a symbol that can infer the type of work to increase the visibility of the linear schedule chart compared to the simple bar chart method. The linear schedule chart generation system was reviewed for practical applicability by utilizing the actual schedule data of bridge structures in a railroad project.

The reinforced earth wall, which is able to improve the strength of soil highly, is required in case of supporting high surcharge load such as high speed rail way, high embankment road, and massive reinforced earth wall in a mountainous area. And also, it is continuously required that the method is able to minimize the amount of excavated soil on account of environmental issue, boundary of land, etc., on excavation site. However, because the required length of reinforcement should be $60{\sim}80%$ of the height of reinforced earth wall for general reinforced earth wall, in fact the reinforced earth wall is hardly applied on the site of cut slope. In this paper we studied the design and construction cases of hybrid reinforcement retaining wall system combined with steel strips and soil nails, connecting the reinforced earth wall reinforcements to the slope stability reinforcements (soil nails) to ensure sufficient resistance by means of reducing the length of reinforcements of reinforced earth wall. And the feasibility of hybrid reinforcement retaining wall system, suggested by real data measured on site, is also discussed.

In order to excavate underground tunnel most safely such as Han river, the slurry shield TBM method is applied to cope with face of high water pressure for many metro projects. In downtown subway project most of excavated soil is discharged externally whereas in road construction excavated soil is used as filling materials so it becomes important factor for success of the project. After excavated soil, weathered rock and soft rock are discharged with bentonite through discharge pipe to slurry treatment plant then those soils are separated in separation plant according to those size. Fine grained soil has been discarded together with filter cake but it is not toxic and can be mixed with coarse aggregate in proper ratio so this study is performed to find use of qualified filling material to meet quality standard. Therefore, in this study, legal standards and quality standards for the utilization of excavated soil of the slurry shield TBM method were examined and test was conducted to derive recycling way for filter cake and aggregate. And a plan for using it as a filling material for road construction was derived. Because bentonite is a clay composed of montmorillonite, and the excavated soil in the tunnel is also non-toxic, disposal of this material can waste social cost so it is expected to be helpful in the underground space development project that carries out the TBM project by recycling it as a valuable resource.

The disc cutter and cutterbit, which are the most important factors to increase the excavation efficiency of TBM, are key factors in the design and construction of the cutter head. The arrangement, spacing, number, size, and material of disc cutters suitable for the ground conditions determine the success or failure of TBM construction. The disc cutter, which is a representative consumable part in TBM construction, can cause enormous disruption to the construction cost as well as the construction cost unless accurate prediction of wear and replacement cycle is accompanied. Therefore, in this study, the method of calculating the replacement cycle of the disc cutter calculated at the time of design for the slurry shield TBM field, and the depth of wear and replacement location of the disc cutter that occurred during actual construction were compared by analyzing the field data. For a quantitative comparison, weathered soil/weathered rock, soft rock, and hard rock were classified according to the ground in the section showing constant excavation data, and the trajectory of circle was different depending on the location of the disc cutter, so it was compared and analyzed.

This study was undertaken to develop an analysis model representing a reliable estimation of rigidity of Korean soft clay using an artificial neural network (ANN). Data for the model development were obtained through a laboratory study, and were used for training and verification. The coefficient of correlation between the measured and predicted data using the developed model was relatively high. It demonstrates the potential application of ANN for the reliable estimation of Korean soft clay rigidity while past attempts at building such a mathematical model have proved difficult.

Many research and case study for BIM have mainly been focused on architecture domain. However, it is insufficient to civil engineering domain. Although BIM will be applied to civil engineering domain. because national BIM standard and delivery system of BIM is not ready, these demands are increasing. First of all, this paper analyzed the current status of the IFC international standards and BIM of civil engineering domain. Second of all, we established the roadmap for BIM development for civil engineering domain. And this paper studied on the BIM application of road construction for a step by step development of civil engineering. Finally, we conduct case study about road project by applying to construction information classification.

전 세계적으로 ASR, ASTR과 같은 인공함양에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 수자원을 확보하고 생산수의 수질 개선을 꾀할 수 있는 지하 저수지 기술을 개발하고 낙동강 하구의 염 대수층에 설치한 시험시설에서 검증하였다. 국내외 대 하천의 하구에는 상부에는 점토층이 발달해 있고 하부에는 대수층이 대규모로 발달해 있으나 염 지하수로 포화되어 있는 경우가 많다. 점토층은 오염된 지표수나 지표면에서 발생한 오염사고로부터 하부의 피압 대수층을 분리하는 역할을 할 수 있다. 따라서 피압 대수층은 기존의 지표수 수자원 또는 대체 수자원의 한계를 극복할 수 있는 좋은 수자원 확보 공간이 될 수 있다. 지하 저수지 실증 연구를 위하여 낙동강 하구의 피압 대수층에 주입정, 양수정과 관측정 등을 포함한 시험 시설을 설치하였다. 낙동강에서 취수한 지표수의 부유물을 제거하고 대수층에 주입하여 기존의 염 지하수를 밀어내고 렌즈 형태의 담수체 (지하 저수지)를 조성하였다. 양수정과 관측정을 통하여 조사된 지하 저수지는 원 지하수가 배제되었고, 하천수보다 수질이 개선되었음을 보였다. 본 고에서는 실증 연구에서 도출된 수자원 확보 및 수질 개선 성과를 제시하고자 한다. 지하 저수지는 공사 규모가 작고, 수몰지가 발생하지 않으며, 수요지 인근에 위치해 있어 지역 내 수자원 자급이 가능하고, 토지 이용도 자유롭다. 또한 평상 시에 연중 균일한 양질의 수자원 공급이 가능하고 가뭄, 지표수 오염 등 비상 시에도 장기간 안정적으로 청정 수자원 공급이 가능하다. 지하 저수지는 물 안보도 제고를 위한 취수원 다변화 차원에서 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

BIM (Building Information Modeling) is a new paradigm that includes construction life-cycle, and BIM has become mandatory regulation according to the Public Procurement Service since 2016, which accelerates its application. BIM is now expand from architectural field to infrastructure industry. Through pilot projects, BIM has been challenged with verification process. This trend has affected to maintenance and operation (M&O) phase of construction life-cycle. Advanced country has already published their research and result with feasibility study and guidelines. In this paper, we conduct the feasibility study to adopt BIM-based infrastructure management system. Bridges and tunnels were selected as application target, and benefit/cost ratio were used. The result shows that BIM-based infrastructure management system is feasible when the level of detail is more than "Medium" in bridge, and "High" in tunnel.

In this paper, we propose a novel method for converting the existing 2D processes in the design and construction phase of civil engineering, to the future BIM-based processes. First, we compare and analyze the actual application processes of the outputs of the existing 2D method and the outputs of the 3D BIM method, for the whole process of BIM design of earthworks and road structures and integrated utilization of quantity, process(4D) and construction cost(5D), in view of life-cycle. The proposed method acquire the outputs of the design phase integrating IFC international common standard file information and CBS/OBS/WBS standard classification scheme information, and acquire the outputs of the construction stage by using an integrated utilization module for quantity, process(4D) and construction cost(5D). Ultimately, we intend to commercialize the step by step technologies for BIM design and construction in civil engineering by using the proposed method.
