School facilities maintenance is concerned about providing clean and safe environments for children. It is also about creating a physical setting that is appropriate and adequate for learning. But many of the school buildings in Korea have been maintained and operated by each school manger or pubic officers in the Educational Department. This system could not extend the life of building components, keep equipment functioning as designed or sustain a sage and healthful environment because of its non-professionality and the dual fiscal system. In order to improve such problems, it is proposed to privatize the maintenance of school building. It is sure that the new way to outsource services reduce costs and provide high quality services. Competitive contracting with the private sector can provide schools with expertise, flexibility and cost efficiencies as well as help school administrators focusing on educating the children. This study explores the maintaining status of existing schools, analyses the cases about BTL schools and the foreign country's policies and surveys the outsourcing cases of Kyungki-do schools. Finally it proposes more appropriate plans for privatizing the maintenance way of school building in Korea.

This paper focuses on the response of architectural form to the technological characteristics in the institute facilities. For this, we study the meaning of technology in the aspect of physical, formal and social concepts and their architectural expression and sort by grouping through analyzing 27 cases of foreign current Institute facilities. Conclusions can be summarized as followings: 1) Vocabulary of technology in physical concept is presented by the environmental control through the experimental surface such as louver and glazing and the independent exposed equipment. 2) Vocabulary of technology in physical concept is presented using the machine like aesthetics by exposing the structural members and designing the exterior form using dynamical images. 3) The expression of social meaning in technology is presented by standardization, parts assembling through mass production system, the unit material for expression of today's industrial society. The expressions of technological language in the institute facilities are used not only one vocabulary but comprehensive ones.

This paper proposes a improved investment priority decision method of the facilities considering the reliability of distribution networks. The proposed method decides a investment order of the facilities combining, by fuzzy rules, the investment priority decision of KEPCO and the priority decision considering reliability evaluation indices. Where reliability evaluation indices are SAIFI(System Average Interruption Frequency Index) and SAIDI(System Average Interruption Duration Index), as referred to evaluation index for sustained interruption. The reliability analysis method of distribution networks applied in this paper utilizes analytic method, where the used reliability data is historical data of KEPCO. Particularly, we assumed that the failure rate increased as the equipment ages. To verify the performance of the proposed method, we applied it with the planned projects to reinforce the weak facility electrical facilities in KEPCO in 2004. The evaluation result showed that, under a limited budget, the reliability of the KEPCO in the Busan region using the proposed method can be enhanced than using the conventional KEPCO's method. Therefore, the results verify the proposed method can be efficiently used in the actual priorities method for investing the electrical facilities.

To verify the performance of the proposed method, we applied it with the planned projects to reinforce the weak electrical facilities in KEPCO in 2004. The evaluation result showed that, under a limited budget, the reliability of KEPCO in the Busan region using the proposed method could be enhanced if used rather than the conventional method typically in place. Therefore, the results verify that the proposed method can be efficiently used in the actual priorities method for investing in the electrical facilities.

The current study relates to RADAR (RAdio Detection and Ranging) application for level measurement of vitrified radioactive liquid nuclear waste. The vitrification of radioactive liquid waste is carried out in special equipment called 'Melters'. The study is directed towards the design and frequency modulation used in the level measurement of vitrified waste. More specifically, the RADAR design and frequency used for level measurement in a melter. This level measurement technique can also be used for dynamic vitrification process and can be used to measure the level variations without using any external medium/material and using only electromagnetic waves. Also, this technique is durable and accurate even under the high radioactive environment present inside the melter.

In order to thoroughly verify the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula, it is urgent to develop technology capabilities to monitor, detect, collect, analyze, interpret, and evaluate nuclear activities using nuclear materials and secure nuclear transparency. The IAEA is actively using seal technology to maximize the efficiency of safety measures, and currently uses metal cap, paper, COBRA, and EOSS as seal devices. Unlike facilities that comply with safety measures requirements, such as domestic nuclear facilities, facilities subject to denuclearization are likely to have various risk environments that make it difficult to apply safety measures, and there is a high possibility that continuity of knowledge (COK) such as damage, malfunction, and power loss will not be maintained. This study aims to develop a real-time active seal device that can be applied in such special situations to enable immediate response in the event of a similar situation. To this end, the main functions of the real-time seal device were derived and applied, and a commercialized seal device and operation software. The real-time seal technology developed through this study can be applied to all nuclear facilities in South Korea, especially used as storage equipment for dry cask storage facilities of heavy water reactor's after fuel, and it is believed that unnecessary radiation exposure by inspectors can be minimized.

Key set the current non-urban rail power failure of equipment to operate the railway will generate a lot of problems. I know in advance the ideal of power equipment to prevent the failure to derive an efficient replacement cycle for the power equipment monitoring and diagnosis of the condition can become necessary to develop a system. In order to determine the status of the power plant during operation and behavior of the partial discharge current state data, regular monitoring and inspection requirements also stamp the basic current, voltage, temperature and humidity should be identified.

Requirements for high-efficiency equipment for energy saving are rapidly increasing recently keeping pace with development of digital and semiconductor technology. Accordingly, there are many changes and development in ballast. Ballast currently in use are Magnetic ballast (Coiled Type) and Electronic ballast. Electronic ballast produces incredible energy saving effect, but falls short of confidence instead. In addition, use at higher frequency through switching device creates Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and high frequency. EMI creates low quality of equipment, damage in facilities and low productivity by leading miss operation of equipment, and interferes with surrounding machines. In this analysis I am going to examine characteristics of EMI on the Electronic ballast of FLR32SS one type pursuant to annex 3 of Electric Goods Technology Standard, and counter technology.

The digital network system is one of the most important features in the resent hospital buildings. This study is to lay out a guideline of architectural planning according to the hospitals with digital network system. First, this study develops the concept of hospital building digital network system and reports the survey results of domestic general hospitals for this matter. Required spaces by digital network system in general hospital are classified into two categories. One is equipment room, main equipment room and a telecommunication closet, to accommodate network facilities. The other is the spaces related with medical information, medical archives and the department of radiology, because digital network system makes a change the form and use of information. In result, this study proposes models for each equipment room and raises the possibility of size change of information-spaces.
