A Rural house in Chungcheong area have been variety of matters, rapid deterioration of house and incomplete of maintenance control, that is represented lack of durability heating from lack of heat insulation property, health worsening form use of toxic substance and so on. For farmers who did not know where to repair and how to repair, they are urgently needed measures of standard and basis that is to realize a condition of rural house. Accordingly, this study drew major matters and priority for revitalization through analysis of type of rural house from research on the actual condition in order to develope of diagnostic criteria of rural house.

Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) has a poor prognosis and a strong association with exposure to asbestos. Although there are not generally accepted guidelines for treatment of MPM, recent reports suggest that multi modality therapy combining chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery can improve the survival of patients with MPM. Therefore exact staging is required to decide the best treatment option. However, it is well known that there are many difficulties in determining precise preoperative stage, predicting prognosis, and monitoring response to therapy with conventional imaging modalities such as CT and MRI in MPM. Recently PET with $^{18}F-FDG$ comes into the spotlight as an important staging method. There is increasing evidence that PET is superior to other conventional imaging modalities in diagnosis and staging of MPM. Particularly PET/CT improves the diagnostic and staging accuracy over PET or CT alone in MPM because it provides anatomic imaging data as well as functional information. PET and PET/CT are also useful for monitoring response to therapy and SUV is reported as a prognostic factor in MPM.

Occupational lung disease (OLD) is a group of lung diseases caused and/or aggravated by organic and inorganic inhaled dust, fumes, and mist. OLD can develop under various occupational situations. Therefore, occupational history should be considered when evaluating respiratory symptoms. Once OLD is developed, it may not be treated and may even progress after exposure to the causative agents has stopped. The best ways to treat OLD are prevention and early detection by controlling the working environment and conducting regular surveillance of workers. Common OLDs in Korea are coal worker's pneumoconiosis, asbestos-related diseases, and occupational asthma. Recent aspects of these common OLDs in Korea will be described based on recently published studies.

Cellulose fiber reinforced cement composites manufactured by the slurry-dewatering process have found broad applications in thin cement products as replacement for asbestos cement. This paper focuses on the durability characteristics of these composites under different aging conditions. The effects of wetting-drying and freezing-thaw cycles, carbonation, and exposure to hot and humid environments on the structure and properties of cellulose fiber-cement composites were investigated. The predominant mechanisms of aging in the composites were identified through investigation of structure-property relationships. Measures to control these aging mechanisms were diversed and evaluated. Refined cellulose fiber-cement composites are shown to possess excellent durability characteristics under the effects of various aging processes.

Cellulose fiber reinforced cement(CFRC) pipe has been gradually introduced in the pipe market as a replacement of previously popular asbestos cement pipes. Since CFRC pipe is still relatively unknown in the pipe market, there are great concerns for the design and application in practice related to the time-dependent behavior of CFRC under long-term sustained loading. This paper presents an experimental investigation of the time-dependent behavior of cellulose fiber reinforced cement(CFRC) pipe. A total of six CFRC pipes were tested under various loading levels, and their vertical deformation was recorded to understand the characteristics of the time-dependent behavior. Based on the test results, a factor of safety(FS) of 1.82 is proposed, and a regression factor(R) of 1.88 is estimated for the application of CFRC pipes in practice.

The porous wollastonite ceramics were fabricated after firing calcium silicates, obtained using natural resources and by-products of power plants by hydrothermal synthesis, without organic fibers or asbestos for reinforcement agent. A specimen from diatomite as a SiO2 staring raw material had the highest strength owing to normal grain growth and good densification from homogeneous sperhcial C-S-H hydrates. A specimen from SiO2 sol as a SiO2 starting raw material showed tobermolite, but fly ash and mixed system did xonotlite after hydrothermal synthesis. The specimen from fly ash showed the lowest firing shirikage and strength changes in the firing range from 50$0^{\circ}C$ to 120$0^{\circ}C$. The other phases in all specimens changed to wollastonite phase after firing at 100$0^{\circ}C$. Also the average pore size was distributed from 0.2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to 2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.

국내의 경우, 2004년 5월부터 시행예정인 다중이용시설 등의 실내공기질관리법에 따라서, 학교 등의 일부 건축물을 제외하고 신축공동주택 및 대부분의 거주용 공간에 대한 실내공기질관리법이 제정되었다. 이러한, 건축물 내에는 다양한 오염원(sources)과 휘발성유기화합물(VOCs), 포름알데히드(HCHO), 라돈(Radon), 석면(Asbestos), 일산화탄소(CO), 이산화탄소($CO_2$), 이산화질소(NO$_2$), 오존(O$_3$), 미세 먼지(PM10), 부유세균 등 유해오염물질(contaminants)이 존재하고 있다. 또한, 실내공기오염은 각 오염원에서의 유해오염물질 방산정도(emission rate)가 실내외 환경조건, 적용 건축자재의 종류 및 공법 , 환기설비의 특성 및 유형 등에 따라 큰 차이를 보이고 있으므로, 이에 대한 정확한 측정방법의 정립과 그에 따른 적절한 실태조사의 실시가 필요하다.

The exhausted gases were analyzed and the countermeasures were studied to solve the environmental pollution caused by waste gases in Chung-Ju Industral Complex. The eleven working places were selected to analysis the compositions and concentrations of the exhausted gases by gas chromatograph and membrane method. The five companies which have used organic solvents were shown lower content than TLV and the environmental limits. But the concentration of lead in a electric product company was revealed higher than TLV. The waste gases of the four companies which have used asbestos were shown lower values than TLV and the environmental limit. The exhausted gases, SO$_2$and NO$_2$of two companies which have used fossile fuels were also analyzed. The NO$_2$concentration of one company which haven't disposal system was shown higher than the environmental limit.

The rural area has aged and depressed for urban area in Korea. Furthermore, the rural house has deteriorated and is vulnerable to disaster which collapse, fire, landslide, and so on. For this matter, it need to an evaluated system for deteriorated level of rural house. The evaluated system has a repairing method and an estimated cost for rural house to offer native in rural area. This study could draw evaluation factor for deteriorated level of rural house as a basic study for the evaluated system. The evaluation factors is compared the Korean housing performance grade indication system, the Korean green building certification criteria, and the Japanese housing performance indication system. As a result, they could eight types. There are a mothproof, an waterproof, a finishing material, an asbestos cement slate of roofing, a mobility right, an opening and closing of doors and windows, an indoor environment.
