This research analyzes Seoul station, a typical transfer station complex, focusing on the evaluation of its barrier free design suitable for vulnerable persons such as senior citizens. The analysis was conducted to assess its compliance with the "barrier-free" design standard for those with physical or other disabilities. This paper proposes a list of items to evaluate for transfer station complexes with a barrier-free design. The results showed that the overall connections and internal and sanitation facilities of (Seoul station/the design?)were excellent. However, because of the lack of transfer and guidance facilities, vulnerable persons felt uncomfortable when searching for information about transferring from one means of transport to another. Furthermore, there was an extremely high risk of accidents when they transferred to the bus station. Therefore, it is necessary to arrange the transfer information facilities, in order to improve their readability and visibility. Once this is done, vulnerable people will be able to use this station more safely and conveniently.

The purposes of this study were to verify the status of Barrier Free Design Certification in the center for the elderly. To achieve these purposes, the architectural characteristics of the center for elderly and the status of Barrier Free Design Certification was analyzed. The results of this study were as follows. (1) The functional composition of centers for the elderly are similar regardless of the location, but the area and shape of the plot are very different according to the location. (2) According to an analysis on the status of Barrier Free Design Certification in centers for elderly, the sanitation and intermediate facilities are necessarily considerable adjustment. (3) For the accessability and conveniences of Barrier Free Design Certification in a small building, such as centers for the elderly, they are necessary to simplify the self-assessment documents, minimize the period for judging, and reducing the fees for certification.

Noise harriet Is used for noise reduction method of traffic noise. The length and the total cost of that are increased In this national area. But. a maintenance management of noise barrier is not systematic. and the guideline of that is not prepared for maintenance manual. The situations of existed installation and management of noise barriers Installed at 3.619 positions were investigated by questionnarie and direct field survey. And comparisons with foreign management guideline of noise harrier were carried out. The results show that the improvement methods of maintenance management system such as practical checklist and required Items for management of noise barrier were suggested.

For the noise reduction measures in a construction field or near the traffic line receiver is often the most economic measure in order to exclude the propagated sound. The dimension of the barrier is decided by the noise and construction design, and the constructive quality of a soundproof panel shall be secured in accordance with KS F4770 to guarantee the safety of sound barriers. In this paper the problems included in the KS F4770-1 that is the regulation for the metallic sound barrier of the absorption type are identified and it is suggested what to be corrected or improved. Through a series of the analyses, conclusions were reached that it is required to improve test methods in KS F4770-1 as well as to break down test loads for building more cost-effective sound barrier.

음 배리어 프리(acoustic barrier-free)는 '음과 관련하여 장애인과 고령자의 생활에 불편을 주는 장벽을 제거하는 방안'이라고 정의 된다. 음 배리어프리는 건축, 도시 공간 및 교통 수단에서의 시각 또는 청각약자를 위한 안내, 유도, 경보 및 피난 시설에 대한 설계와 관련된다. 또한 보청기 등의 청각지원기기, 전자기기 등의 신호음 및 안내음과 음성 전송 장치와 같은 제품 디자인에도 음 배리어프리 개념은 요구된다. 본고에는 일본사례를 중심으로 음 배리어프리의 현황을 소개하고자 한다.

Lowering the dielectric constant is one of the important issues for the efficiency and the power consumption in the plasma display panel (PDP) industry. This study examined the effect of the addition of ceramic filler (up to 10% of crystalline and amorphous silica, respectively) to a $B_2O_3$-ZnO- $P_2O_5$ glass matrix on the dielectric, coefficient of thermal expansion, etching behaviors and residual stress for the barrier ribs in plasma display panels. The dielectric constant of barrier ribs is affected by containing two types of $SiO_2$ filler for the barrier rib composition in PDP.

It seems inevitable for residential buildings to be high-rise and allocated near traffic roads due to the overcrowding in urban area. Acoustic environment in those residential buildings has been seriously deteriorated by the increase of traffic vehicles. Commonly used sound barriers have a limitation in controlling noise diffracted over the boundary of a sound barrier and hence are not effective to attenuate noise especially for the residential units in high level. The use of an enclosed noise barrier can be an alternative to supplement the defects of conventional noise barriers. The present work aims at providing useful data in designing enclosed noise barriers for residential areas adjacent to roads. Number of field measurements for various noise barriers and enclosed noise barriers were carried out and the results were discussed with relation to the proper design of enclosed noise barriers.

Universal Design is comprised of three main concepts known as barrier-free, adaptive and life-span design. It does not focus on accessibility for the disabled, but rather expands its breadth to the comfortable use and easy access in ail physical environments and facilities. In this study, the researcher views the present and future of universal design through the cases of kitchen design. Based on the market changes in design guidelines and the changes of time uncovered from past studies, this researcher suggests that universal design would develop through mass customization for personalized use, application of new technology and consideration of psychological aspects. Additionally, for the diffusion of universal design appropriate solution in economic cost problem, social recognition and conversion of problem cognizance in designing is needed. In Korea design models of universal design concepts are not yet in production over various fields. In order to develop and study universal design which suits our country, cultural and regional characteristics should be considered as well as physical, perceptual, psychological aspects.
