The purpose of this study is to suggest objective evaluation model as a plan to utilize as opportunity in establishing judgment standard of mutual inspection criteria and to upgrade inspection ability by reviewing and analyzing level of danger and importance in advance based on inspection results of inspection institutions regarding tower cranes used in construction fields. Tower crane is a mechanical device transporting construction supplies and heavy materials to places over 20~150M high from the ground for the period ranging from a short time of 2~3 months to two years after being installed in construction sites in vicinity of buildings or structures and is an important facility indispensable for construction sites. However, since use period after installation is short and professional technical ability of technicians working on-site about of tower crane is poor, systematic and quantitative safety management is not carried out As a part of researches on procedure of RBI(Risk Based Inspection) possible to apply to Knowledge Based System based on knowledge and experiences of experts as well as to tower cranes for solving these problems, quantitative RPN(Risk Priority Number) was applied to RPN utilizing technique of FMEA(Failure Mode and Effect Analyses). When general RBI 80/20 Rule was applied parts with high level of risks were found out as wire rope, hoist up/down safety device, reduction gear, and etc. However, since there are still many insufficient parts as risk analyses of tower crane were not established, it is necessary for experts with sufficient experiences and knowledge to supplement active RBI techniques and continuous researches on tower cranes by sharing and setting up data base of important information with this study as a starting point.

본 논문은 현행 전력기술 관리법에 의하여 시행되고 있는 전력시설물공사 감리제도의 제도개선에 관한 연구로서 연구자의 현장 실무경험과 감리제도의 일반사항, 감리업자와 감리원에 대한 사항, 감리업자 선정 및 입찰에 관한 사항을 조사하여 전력시설물공사 감리제도의 현황과 실태분석 및 개선방안을 제시한 내용으로 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 법적 및 제도적 측면에서 시급히 개선될 사항이다. 정부는 1995년 12월 법률 제5,132호로 전력기술관리법을 제정하여 전력시설물에 대한 공사감리 업무를 별도 분리 발주하여 전문성을 높이도록 전기 분야 전문기술자에 의해 수행토록 하는 것을 골자로 하는 책임 감리제도를 도입하여 오늘에 이르고 있다. 그러나 공사 준골단계에서 전기사업법 제98조 2항에 의해 위탁업무를 하고 있는 전기 안전공사가 사용전 검사를 함으로서 책임 감리제도의 도입 취지를 무색케 한 정도로 심각한 국면에 접어들었다. 전력기술관리법이 제정되어 13년이 지난 오늘까지도 책임 감리제도가 성공적으로 정착되지 못한 근본적인 문제는 사용전 검사를 전기 안전공사에서 대행하고 있다는 것이다. 물론 그동안의 많은 노력으로 어느 정도의 개선은 있었지만 근본적인 문제가 해결되지 않고서는 전력시설물공사의 감리기술의 전문화를 기대하기 어려운 실정이다. 따라서 책임 감리계도의 성공적인 정착을 위해서는 전기사업법 제98조 2항에 의한 위탁 업무인 사용전 감사 제도를 감리업자에게 돌려줌으로서 책임과 권한을 실질적으로 부여하고 감리회사 자체의 기술력 및 기술자 확보와 기술개발에 필요한 운영자금 및 투자 확대를 유도해 나가야 하며, 무엇보다도 확실한 법적 제도적 뒤받침이 선행되어야 한다. 둘째, 제도적 측면에서 일반건축물은 사업주가 전력시설물공사 감리업자를 임의선정 및 수의계약에 의해 감리업자를 지정하고 해당 공사기간동안 전기 감리원을 투입토록 되어 있어 인건비에 미치지 못하는 저가수주와 다음계약을 위해 어쩔 수 없이 사업주에게 종속되는 경우가 많으며, 이로 인해 감리수행에 혼란이 야기되고 책임소재의 불분명 책임 감리원의 조정 및 통제기능이 약화되는 부작용이 나타나고 있다. 전력시설물공사의 감리는 전력시설물의 안전사고, 비효율 및 부실소지 둥을 방지하기 위해서 필수적이고 발주자 감리업자 시공업체에게 모두 도움을 주는 업무이며, 일정규모이상의 건축물은 자발적인 참여로 유도할 수 있도록 적격심사제도(PQ심사)도입이 적극 필요한 실정이다. 셋째, 운용측면에서 공동주택의 주택법에 의한 전력시설물공사 감리는 사업승인권자가 사업수행능력 평가기준(PQ 심사)에 따라 감리업자를 지정하고 해당 공사기간 동안에 전기 감리원을 투입토록 되어 있으나 평가기준이 세대수에 따라 정해져 있어 효율적, 기술적 측면에 미치지 못하는 경우가 많다. 수준 높은 감리를 수행하려면 그에 맞는 적정한 감리원의 투입이 필수적이다. 넷째, 운용 및 제도적 측면에서 공공발주 건축물(공동주택 포함)의 전력시설물공사는 사업수행능력 평가기준(PQ 심사)에 따라 감리업자를 지정하고 해당 공사기간 동안에 전기 감리원을 투입토록 되어 있으나 발주자 소속직원의 감리수행 근거에 의해 자체 감리를 함으로서 시장경쟁 및 민간경제 활성화의 제약, 부정부패 및 비효율 등 사회에 전반적으로 악영향을 끼쳐 하루 빨리 민간 감리업자에게로의 개선이 시급한 실정이다.

There have been easily found a number of examples that misleading or unreasonable measuring data set of physical variables are often produced in the field and the laboratory. The primary reason is that the specific requirements of civil engineers are initially disregarded in designing the experimental apparatus. It results from a lack of mutual understanding and co-operating between the user group and the maker. Therefore, their fundamental knowledge and apprehension become indispensible in order to obtain measuring data with high confidence and good quality In this study it is shortly explained the basic structure and the operation system of the experimental equipments commonly used at the present. A simple measuring set is developed which is quite easy for a general civil engineer to design and operate without any other specialty of mostly electricity electronics. Based upon this requirement, one of data logger named PPDL8 is newly designed by making use of the parallel port in the personal computer, consisting of multi-channels able to measure 8 different point values simultaneously. It can also use many valuable sub-programs existing in PC because the user makes his own programs necessary for measurement, by himself. Of all things, it has a great advantage to increase the applicability of field measurements much larger when adopting the notebook computer to operate with small battery only. In addition this study gives, in fact, the excellent agreements of in-situ field variables by showing their measuring results of temperature, distance and turbidity.

Recent studies say that informal learning is influential to students as much as formal teaming. Nowadays we can see various informal teaming inside and outside of the country. In 2004, it was the first attempt in Korea that engineer had gone to the elementary school fur activity that included scientific experiment and engineering work with students. National Academy of Engineering of Korea (NAEK) progressed activity with companies and elementary schools for students' making sense of engineer and what they are doing. To do that, NAEK had developed the network that company could support its local school's science education circumstance by engineers' visiting program. In 2004, seventeen companies including both large and small ones took part in the program called' Korea Junior Engineering Achievement (KJEA)'. In this program, engineers played the role of teacher (we call them company teacher), elementary school teachers played the role of organizing classes as a mediator. Elementary school teachers and company teachers' recognition is very important to make students' activity meaningful. The aim of this study was to give implication for informal science education activity for which engineers visit their local school. We got the result by survey and interview of company teachers and elementary school teachers. This study's result shows that almost company teachers and school teachers were in favor of purpose of this informal science education activity and satisfied with their participation. But some company teachers were not satisfied with worksheets, materials provided and relationship between school and company). Elementary school teachers and company teachers, both of them believed students' program as the key factor of success of informal science education activity. To make informal science education grow, school administrator and teacher need to have a will to utilize the activities more actively.

Noise and vibration due to pile driving cause residents nearby construction sites to file civil complaints and to the extent of bringing construction to a halt. To deal with this issue, construction engineers have worked strenuously to develop several types of low noise & low vibration pile methods. In this study, a new noise and vibration-free precast screw pile method proposed as a low noise & low vibration pile. It penetrates into the ground by rotating and pressing to avert noise and vibration while maximizing bearing capacity. A prototype of noise and vibration-free precast screw pile method was manufactured, which is not seen anywhere in Korea and elsewhere, and have undergone pilot tests twice to determine construction method. Based on this study, features of the noise & vibration-free screw pile method, production of screw concrete pile prototype, two pilot tests and subsequent construction method were determined.

On the design phase of small size bridge, owing to the lack of related guidelines or standards to determine a superstructure type of bridge, many designers tend to select the type depending on expert's experience and knowledge. Moreover, recently, as types of bridge superstructure become diverse and more conditions need to be considered in the project, the decision makes process become complex. This research covered the selection of a superstructure type of a middle or small size bridge with span length of about 50m, which frequently built for national roadway, selecting type of bridge superstructure more systematic way rather than the existing ways to compare construction methods or to depend on expert's experiences. This study proposes to build a bridge superstructure type selection model using one of the techniques of artificial intelligence techniques SVM by applicability of the model examined through the verification of the actual case.

The amount of dredging clay will be greatly increased by the eco-rive project and port development in Korea. Geotechnical engineers have thrown their efforts into the new ways for effective re-uses of the dredging clay such as the material for reclamation, and so on. However, very high initial water content and low strength causes unexpected difficulties in the aspect of trafficablility or time for consolidation. Therefore, the injection of cement stabilizer is used as one of ways to improve reclaimed ground. However, it also makes an argument by heavy metal from cement stabilizer. In this paper constant rate of strain consolidation test and normal consolidation test were performed to investigate behavior characteristics of the consolidation about soil-cement include lean mixed cement to reduce the environmental loads by the cement. The experimental results of consolidation characteristics about soil-cement include lean mixed cement influenced by mixing ratio. Especially it was observed that mixing ratio of 4%~6% leads not only the reduction of consolidation settlement, but time for consolidation.

The determination of in-situ capping materials is one of the most important factors to design in-situ capping in order to protect capping materials from erosion. Previous studies have established relationship between the velocity induced by wave energy and effective diameter of sediments, but they are mostly empirical and numerical researches which is too complicated for field engineers to analyze the erosion of in-situ capping materials. This study provides simple analytical solutions and reliability based on hydraulic model test results. Experimental results show that measured flow velocities with respect to depth induced by wave energy are almost the same as estimated velocities and the erosion resistances of the different effective particle diameters can be estimated.
