When pile foundation constructed by driving method, it is desirable to perform monitoring and estimation of pile drivability and bearing capacity using some suitable tools. Dynamic Pile Monitoring yields information regarding the hammer, driving system, and pile and soil behaviour that can be used to confirm the assumptions of wave equation analysis. Dynamic Pile Monitoring is performed with the Pile Driving Analyser. The Pile Driving Analyser (PDA) uses wave propagation theory to compute numerous variables that fully describe the condition of the hammer-pile-soil system in real time, following each hammer impact. This approach allows immediate field verification of hammer performance, driving efficiency, and an estimate of pile capacity. The PDA has been used widely as a most effective control method of pile installations. A set of PDA test was performed at the site of Donghea-1 Gas Platform Jacket which is located east of Ulsan. The drilling core sediments of location of jacket subsoil are composed of mud and sand, silt. In this case study, the results of PDA test which was applied to measurement and estimation of large diameter open ended steel pipe pile driven by underwater hydraulic hammer, MHU-800S, at the marine sediments were summarized.

When pile foundation is constructed by dynamic method, it is desirable to perform monitoring of drivability with pile penetration. Dynamic pile monitoring yields information regarding driving hammer, cushion, pile and soil behaviour that can be used to confirm the assumptions of wave equation analysis. In this study, dynamic monitoring of the steel pipe pile was performed with Pile Driving Analyser (PDA). The PDA utilizes the wave propagation theory to compute numerous variables which describe the conditions of the hammer-pile-soil system in real-time and following each hammer impact. This approach allows immediate field verification of hammer performance, driving efficiency, and estimation of pile bearing capacity. A series of PDA test were performed at the Ieodo Ocean Research Station (IORS) located in southeast of Marado, a southernmost small island south of Jeju Island. The drilling core sediments of Ieodo subsoil are composed of mud and sand, showing lamination and wavy or lenticular bedding, which were often bioturbated. This paper summarizes the results of PDA tests which were applied in measurement and estimation of large diameter open ended steel pipe pile driven by steam hammer, Vulcan-560 and MRBS-4600, at the marine sediments.

Objective: This study developed a new shower carrier prototype to reduce caregivers' muscle burden and to increase use convenience by reflecting the needs of domestic long-term care institutions. Background: In the long-term care institutions, one of the ADL(Activities of Daily Life) factors is bathing/showering. Recently, bath/shower-assisting equipment is actively being introduced in care institutions to reduce the caregivers' care cost, but most of the domestic equipment was designed to imitate foreign products and rarely reflected the needs of care institutions. Method: Based on Korean elderly people's body information, the bed size(length: 1,900mm, width: 650mm) was set-up, and a variable headrest with a newly designed headform was developed to provide the comfort for the elderly and convenience for caregivers. To reduce caregivers' muscle burden on transferring and showering activities, a 3-step column lifting module equipped with dual actuators(lowest/highest levels from the ground: 600/1,100mm, Stroke: 500mm) was developed, and the wheelbase parameter(length: 1,250mm, width: 580mm) was defined securing the turn-over safety of the shower carrier. The drivability tests were performed for the prototype and foreign product, and the male and female subject's muscle activities were measured through the tests. Results: The structural stability of the shower carrier prototype was secured by finite element analysis, and the muscle activities of the subjects through the drivability tests largely decreased in the prototype, compared to the foreign product. Conclusion: In this study, a new shower carrier prototype was developed to possibly reduce caregivers' muscle burden and to increase use convenience based on the needs of long-term care institutions. It was expected that the drivability performance of the prototype could be relatively superior to that of the foreign product. Application: The results obtained from the study can be applied for the optimal development of a shower carrier including other equipment to effectively care for the elderly.

Nowadays, owing to the development of analysis techniques for PDA test, we can evaluate the serious damage of pile during driving in site. In this study, we checked the damage of pile by pulling it out after evaluation of the pile damage during driving by PDA testing. After that, almost damaged pile was checked and the outline depth of damage could be verified. To increase the quality of driven pile, we have to increase the number of PDA testing for drivability analysis with checking the damage especially for preliminary pile driving and dynamic load test for checking the bearing capacity and consider the application of driving by energy monitoring.

본 연구에서는 3D 프린팅 기술을 활용하여 타입말뚝 선단의 모양에 따른 관입성 분석을 현장 축소모형시험을 통해 관찰하고, 대변형 수치해석을 통해 타입 중 말뚝 선단에 집중되는 최대응력의 변화를 확인하였다. 3D 프린터를 통하여 다양한 직경, 각도 그리고 모양의 말뚝 선단 모형을 제작하였고, 이를 현장 축소모형시험에 활용하였다. 이를 통해, 말뚝 선단 조건에 따른 말뚝의 침하량의 변화를 관찰하였다. 더 나아가, 대변형 수치해석 기법을 적용하여 다양한 말뚝 선단 조건에 따른 타입 중 말뚝 선단부의 최대응력의 변화와 최대응력 작용 위치 또한 확인하였다. 현장 축소모형시험과 대변형 수치해석의 결과 분석을 토대로 말뚝 선단 조건의 변화를 통해 타입말뚝의 관입성을 향상 시킬 수 있으며 선단부에 집중되는 최대응력 또한 완화 시켜 말뚝 시공 중 말뚝 손상을 방지할 수 있을 것으로 결론지을 수 있었다.

철도 지선 구간의 유지보수 비용을 최소화하기 위해 ICT 기반 차상제어시스템을 개발 중이다. 이 시스템은 기존의 열차제어방식과 달리 선로 주변 신호기와 고정폐색장치를 없애고 이동폐색방식을 적용하며 차상에서 선로전환기와 건널목을 제어하는 방식이다. 본 논문의 목적은 ICT 기반 차상제어시스템 개발 이전에 고려해야 할 주요 운영 이슈 사항을 분석하며 주요 대상은 열차운행준비, 운전 편의성, 관제역할, 폐색방식, 그리고 운영비용을 고려하였다. 열차 출발 전에 기관사가 DMI를 통해 입력하여야 할 입력데이터를 정의하였고 관련 업무 프로세스를 UML 도구를 활용하여 설계하였다. 기관사의 운전 편의성 측면에서는 역 진입 시의 제동시점 지원 필요성과 기관사의 원활한 운전 훈련을 위한 운전시뮬레이터가 필요하다. 기관사가 선로전환기와 건널목을 직접 제어하는 업무절차를 UML 도구로 설계하였다. 기존 운영 방식과의 차이를 확인하기 위해 고정폐색방식과 이동폐색방식 간에 비교 분석하였으며, 비용 측면에서는 기존방식과 ICT 방식의 신호설비에 따른 유지보수 비용 이점을 제시하였다.

In this paper, a case study of drivability and bearing capacity of large diameter steel pipe piles at PTT LNG site in Thailand is introduced. The LNG facilities were designed to be founded on steel pipe pile foundations driven into the weathered rock formation overlaid by sand layers. The drivability analyses of open ended pipe piles were carried out using GRL WEAP program and the bearing capacities of the piles were estimated. Dynamic load tests were performed to evaluate end bearing resistance, and it is shown that the measured end bearing resistance is smaller than the calculated end bearing because the plugging does not develop sufficiently in case of large diameter pipe piles.

일반 PC 말뚝과는 달리 제작시 실리카(silica) 재료를 사용하고 증기양생후 고온, 고압의 추가양생(autoclave curing) 실시함으로써 말뚝자체의 강성을 높인 PHC 말뚝의 항타시공성과 지지력 특성을 파동이론에 근거한 수치해석과 실재현장에서의 항타기록 및 재하시험을 통하여 파악하였다. 임의의 지반조건에 대하여 항타장비에 따른 수치해석과 현장시험의 결과는 PHC 말뚝이 PC 말뚝에 비해 말뚝의 재질강도가 60% 정도 크므로 항타장비에 의해서 발휘되는 타격에너지에 대해 보다 큰 저항력을 가지기 때문에 설계지지력을 보다 크게 얻을 수 있으며 항타장비의 선정에 있어서도 보다 큰 효율을 지닌 장비의 선정이 가능하여 경제적인 항타작업을 수행하는데 유리함을 보였다.

Lightweight concrete (LWC) provides an attractive alternative to conventional piles by improving the durability of deep foundations. In this paper, the drivability of cylindrical and tapered piles made of lightweight and common concrete (CC) under hammer impacts was investigated by performing field tests and numerical analysis. The different concrete mixtures were considered to compare the mechanical properties of light aggregate which replaced instead of the natural aggregate. Driving tests were also conducted on different piles to determine how the pile material and geometric configurations affect driving performance. The results indicated that the tapering shape has an appropriate effect on the drivability of piles and although lower driving stresses are induced in the LWC tapered pile, their final penetration rate was more than that of CC cylindrical pile under hammer impact. Also by analyzing wave propagation in the different rods, it was concluded that the LWC piles with greater velocity than others had better performance in pile driving phenomena. Furthermore, LWC piles can be driven more easily into the ground than cylindrical concrete piles sometimes up to 50% lower hammer impacts and results in important energy saving.
