Bridges, which constitute one of the key facilities in a social infrastructure, are easily accessed and used by users, so that keeping their performance above a certain level is essential. According to various cases in the U.S., Japan and Europe with a long construction history, it is expected that the maintenance cost of bridges in Korea will increase continuously in the future, so a rational decision making system based on engineering factors is necessary to optimize the performance of and maintain them by allocating the limited budget efficiently. This study is a preliminary basic study for the purpose of developing a common asset management system for managing all of the bridges and maintaining the level of service provided by them. The scope of this preliminary study is limited to bridges in urban areas. The bridge asset management system for bridges in urban areas, their level of service (LOS) and performance measure (PM) were developed by carrying out a workshop consisting of both experts and stakeholders. The analysis on the weights of the value and performance measure for each performance indicator was carried out by using the multi-attribute utility theory and the AHP method. In order to confirm the application of the weight of the performance measure and value of the performance indicator, six bridges in an example city were selected, LOS analysis was applied and its results were reviewed.

Since the concerns for safety of highway traffic safety facilities inherent in various environmental risk is increased, systematic performance, cost, and effect analysis process is needed for this. In case of median barrier among various traffic safety facilities, quantitative risk assessment is inevitable because it has lots of direct/indirect risk factors. Thus, this study suggests an advanced VE(Value Engineering) approach incorporating quantitative risk analysis. For the applicability, suggested VE approach considering alternative 1(140cm) and 2(127cm) is applied to median barrier in fields. Also, major improvement objects are extracted from governing factors of cost and performance based on functional analysis. It is concluded that the proposed risk assessment methodology will provide rational and practical solutions for best value and the approach could effectively applied for various traffic safety facilities by slight modification of suggest process.

남강은 낙동강에 유입되는 지류 중 가장 큰 하천으로서 낙동강 하류의 수질에 매우 큰 영향을 미치고 있다. 남강댐은 저수 용량에 비해 유역면적이 주요 저수지들에 비하여 월등하게 크므로 홍수시 순간적으로 다량의 유량 및 오염물질이 방류되어 낙동강에 유입되는 특성을 가지고 있다. 남강댐은 서북측에서 유입되는 경호강과 남쪽에서 댐축과 가까이 유입되는 덕천강이 공간적으로 멀리 떨어져 있음으로 인해, 주요 유입물질이 유입되는 시기에 횡방향 및 종방향으로 농도차이를 나타내고 있으며, 과거에 설치되었던 댐이 수중에 존재함으로 인해 국지적인 정체현상이 발생하고 있다. 남강은 현재 경남권은 물론, 거제 및 부산권의 용수원을 공급하거나 예정으로 있으므로 수질관리에 가장 큰 우선순위를 두어야 한다. 남강댐의 합리적인 수질관리를 위해서는 호 내의 공간적 시간적 수질변화에 대한 이해와 수질변화 여건에 있으며 이용되는 만큼 호 내의 정밀한 유체거동 해석이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 남강댐의 수리-수질 특성을 진단하고 예측하기 위하여 3차원 수리동역학 모델인 EFDC와 수질모델인 WASP을 연계하여 사용하였다. 유량 경계조건은 한국수자원공사 및 국가수자원관리 종합 정보시스템(WAMIS)의 남강댐 운영 자료를 바탕으로 남강댐의 유입량과 유출량 자료를 작성하였다. 남강으로 유입되는 지천 및 호 내의 수온, SS 및 수질농도 등은 환경부의 물환경정보시스템의 월 측정자료를 사용하였으며, 기상조건은 진주 기상대의 자료를 사용하였다. 본 연구에서 가용한 입력자료를 이용하여 남강댐의 수리 및 수질 및 부유물질 특성을 모의하였으며 EFDC-WASP 모델을 이용하여 성공적인 보정이 가능한 것을 확인하였다. 그러나 자세한 분석과 대책을 수립하기 위해서는 남강댐의 유입 수질 및 유량 자료에 대한 실질적인 모니터링이 수행되는 것이 필요하다고 판단된다.

양방향입찰시장(TWBP)의 도입을 위해서는 이를 위한 시장설계 및 효율적인 시장운영을 위한 다양한 분석 작업들이 요구되고 있다. 특히 시장설계의 경우, 해외 자문회사와의 협력을 통해 경쟁적 전력시장을 이미 도입하여 운영하고 있는 해외 국가들의 사례들을 포함한 많은 시장운영 기법들이 검토되고 있으며 향후 도입될 TWBP 전력시장에 적합한 방안들을 준비하고 있다. 전력을 전력시장운영규칙이 정하는 바에 따라 전력시장을 통해서만 거래하도록 규정하고 있는 우리나라의 경우, 전력시장운영규칙은 전력시장과 전력계통의 운영에 대한 모든 것을 다루게 되는 만큼 이에 대한 합리적인 설계와 적용은 효율적인 TWBP 전력시장의 기본 틀이라고 할 수 있다. 양방향입찰시장에서의 가격결정은 전력수급과 시장가격 안정화를 위해 매우 중요한 사안이다. 또한 현재 CBP시장과 다른 용량요금(CP)제도의 폐지와 기타 공급예비력확보 제도 등 도매시장설계에 있어 중요한 자료를 제공한다. 양방향입찰시장하에서 가격수준 분석을 통해 시장개설 이전에 문제점을 사전에 검토하여 문제점을 개선하고 시장규칙에 반영하여야 한다. 또한 용량요금 폐지에 따른 보완대책을 수립하여 수급불안정을 방지하고 전력시장 안정화와 성공적인 도매경쟁시장 개설을 위해 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 CBP 시장과 TWBP 시장에서의 기본적 가격예측을 위한 구조적 모델링과 일부 시나리오에 대한 결과를 소개하고자 한다.

Community Service Order is a program that holds a significant place in the system of probation. With its important role in the probation, there is an equally high expectation of the intervention from the program among the people which it serves. The problem lies in that people's understanding of the program is minimized to merely a volunteer-based social activity, which cause a division on how the program is to be run. The purpose of this research is to come up with a method that can efficiently organize the administrative plan to maximize its potentiality of the program. To adopt such a plan, "Sentencing to Service," an effective community service order program in Minnesota, U. S. A. was examined. An interview with the administrative staff, as well as a survey, using systematic sampling, with the participants was conducted to study the effective process and intervention of the program that has existed for fifteen years. The result concluded that "Sentencing to Service" is a successful program with the components of success being that of a positive support from the local community and high motivation level of the participants. In order for the program to be a positive experience for the participants, it is highly contingent upon the crew leaders. On the basis of the research findings, the following suggestions are made. First, a structured guideline for those who are involved in the program is necessary. Second, thorough training provided for the crew leaders are required and a social worker is recommended for the position of crew leader. Lastly, Community Service Order should not widen the net, but ought to serve as an alternative to incarceration.

It is essential to obtain accurate and highly reliable streamflow data for quantitative management for water resources. Thereafter such real-time streamflow gauging methods as ultrasonic flowmeter and index-velocity are introduced recently. Since these methods calculate flowrate through entire cross-section by measuring partial velocities of it, rational and theoretical basis are necessary for accurate estimation of discharge. The purpose of the present study lies in analysis on the applicability of Chiu#s(1987, 1988) two dimensional velocity distribution equations by applying them to natural rivers and by comparing simulated velocity distributions with observed ones obtained with ADCP. Maximum and mean velocities are calculated from observed data to estimate entropy parameter M. Such isovel shape parameters as h and $\beta_i$ are estimated by object function based on least squares criterion. In case optimized parameters are applied, Chiu#s velocity distributions fairly well simulate observed ones. By using 14 simulated data sets which have relatively high correlation coefficients, properties of parameters are analyzed and h, $\beta_i$ are estimated for velocity-unknown river sections. When estimated parameters are adopted for verification, simulated velocity distributions well reproduce real ones. Finally, calculated discharges display rough agreement with measured data. The results of the present study mean that if parameters related are properly estimated, Chiu#s velocity distribution is likely to reproduce the real one of natural rivers.

To predict the service life of reinforced concrete structures exposed to chloride environment, quantitative measures of material properties such as the critical chloride content for corrosion in concrete and the diffusion coefficient of chloride ions of concrete and the surface chloride content of the concrete are essential. However, it should be noted that they are influenced by several factors such as concrete mix proportions, cement type, and environmental conditions, etc. Thus, the purpose of this research is to estimate more actually the critical chloride content for corrosion of the reinforcing steel in concrete by field exposure experiment. For this purpose, the prism concrete test specimens were made for water-cement(W/C) ratios of 31%, 42%, 50%, and 70%, and then the field exposure experiment for them were conducted at Youngduk of the east coast for about 3 years. During the test, corrosion monitoring by half cell potential method was carried out to detect the time to initiation of corrosion for test specimens and its chloride content was evaluated by breaking the concrete test specimens when corrosion of the reinforcing steel in concrete was perceived. It was observed from the test results that the critical chloride content for corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete would be dependent on W/C ratio and almost irrespective of concrete cover.

Management plan with repairing is essential for RC structures exposed to chloride attack since durability problems occur with extended service life. Conventionally deterministic method is adopted for evaluation of service life and repair cost, however more reasonable repair cost can be obtained through continuous repair cost from probabilistic maintenance technique. Unlike the previous researches considering only normal distribution of life time, PLTFs (Probabilistic Life Time Function) which can be capable of handling log and normal distributions are attempted for initial and repair service life, and repair cost is evaluated for OPC and GGBFS concrete. PLTF with log distributions in initial service life is more effective to save repair cost since it is more dominant after average than normal distribution. Repair cost in GGBFS concrete decreases to 30% of OPC concrete due to longer initial service life and lower repairing event. The proposed PLTF from the work can handle not only normal distributions but also log distributions for initial and repair service life, so that it can provide more reasonable repair cost evaluation.

It is critical to select the appropriate type of tower cranes for the construction of super tall buildings. However the selection is often made based on subjective personal experiences due to the lack of historical and analytical data. As a result, planning mistakes and efficiency errors sometimes occur. This research is to develop a system of hoisting analysis for appropriate tower crane selection and to provide a flexible statistical model based on the Burj Dubai project. In addition, this system hassupporting functions that can estimate the target construction period per floor, and a decision-making construction period computation method which is based on the characteristic of the selected tower cranes.
