  • Since the reliability of results by the existing analyzing method is low, in the case of for excavation performed in urban area whose stability is of great importance, construction control based on field monitoring is always necessary. But the field monitoring reflects only the behavior of construction process that has already been carried out, and it has limitations in predicting the behavior of the expected construction process, which is practically more important for construction control. In this study, construction control system for excavation which can predict the behavior of the expected processes during construction with high degree of accuracy, is developed by adopting inverse analysis. The inverse analied applied field monitoring results to excavation analysis can improve the reliability of predicted results. The developed system uses an elasto-plastic soil spring model for the excavation analysis and the minimization of least squared errors between measured displacements and calculated displacements for the inverse analysis. All the required processes for construction control can be performed as an integrated work within the system reflecting real time application and user's convenience. Their applicabilitis are confirmed by two case studies.

  • Recently, geotextile tube method can be widely applied to the river, costal and marine in the construction field, such as embankment, groin, breakwater, dyke structures and so on, in advanced countries of the world. And that has been constructed at the temporary road for incheon, ilsan-bridge construction and coast erosion protection in republic of korea. Geotextile tube is a tube shaped geotextile product and hydraulic pumping filled with dredged soils. In this paper, the numerical analysis was performed to investigate the behavior of geotextile tube with various properties of material character, shape condition, construction pressure and so on. Also, the field test was conducted in order to identify the construction ability of Samangum waterproof embankment using geotextile tube. According to the applied of field test, geotextile tube was 65 m long and 4.0 m diameter. Also, the permeability coefficient and ultimate tensile strength of geotextile tube is $1.6{\times}10^{-1}$ cm/sec and 205.26 kN/m, respectively. As a result of filed test, when filled, geotextile tube does not attain the same as its unfilled theoretical diameter, but may reach approximately of 55 percent of the theoretical diameter. At the time, geotextile tubes were 12.56 m in circumference and filled to a height of about 2.2 m. This paper presents case study on field application and behavior analysis of the saemangum waterproof embankment donggin 1 division construction using geotextile tube.

  • In this study, we compared and analyzed the displacement of final excavation with measured value through an inverse analysis method used in urban excavation construction. We maximized the effectiveness of the inverse analysis method, and plan to achieve cost-effective and practical construction management in the field with identical conditions. As the first stage, we suggest an example of a field which has the inverse analysis method. We applied the inverse analysis method to three different fields on which construction and measuring were finished. Of these three fields, two fields showed a very satisfactory result. However, in one field, there were significant differences between the analysis and measured value. The result of our analysis indicated that, we should unite the conditions of the inverse analysis method and field construction. We need to thoughtfully reconsider the RANKINE earth pressure application in a triangle type. This is because the uniformity of earth pressure is made by its arching effect, in the condition of the displacement of lower underground occurring widely, which is differentiated with the earth pressure conditions of RANKINE, even if the slurry wall has stiffness. Also, when recalculating the soil parameter, we should emphasize the adhesion of the weathering zone, and give experimental consideration to ground water level.

  • Objective: The aim of this study is to reclassify human errors and to develop hands-on tools to apply the new classification for preventing human error accidents in highway construction site. Background: The main cause of accidents in highway construction was reported as the carelessness of workers. However, such diagnosis could not help us operationally prevent accidents in real workplace. Method: The accidents in highway construction were reanalyzed and the causes of human error were reclassified in order to educate and improve the awareness of human error in highway construction. Field survey and interview with safety managers and workers were conducted to find the causal relationship between the actual accidents and the human errors. Results: The most frequently observed human errors in highway construction were classified into six categories such as mis-perception, distraction, memory fail, slip, cognition error and mis-judgment. In order to provide hands-on tools to increase the awareness of human error in construction field, the human error checklist and card sorting diary were developed. Especially, the card sorting diary was designed to increase the ability in human error inspection of safety manager at construction site. Moreover, posters were developed based on actual accident cases. Conclusion: We suggested that the improved awareness and analytical report on checklist, card sorting diary and posters for construction field could collectively prevent the accident. Application: The classification of human error, hands-on tools and posters can be directly applicable on highway construction site. This analytical and collective approach preventing human error-related accident could be extended to other construction workplaces.

  • Recently, buildings have become larger, more complex, and various construction methods have been tried. As a result, the use of construction equipment continues to increase, as well as safety accidents. According to the Ministry of Employment and Labor's report on industrial accidents, the rate of deaths caused by construction equipment among construction accidents has been increasing steadily since 2009. In the safety field of other industries such as crime and traffic, research has been continuously conducted to develop quantitative indicators due to demands for development of evaluation indicators or risk index development. On the other hand, construction equipment has been studied to analyze disaster cases and come up with improvement measures, but there is no research related to risk index. Therefore, the research will develop a quantitative index that can determine the risk level of construction equipment in the field based on the accident case and verify the possibility of use in the field.

  • As the reinforced earth wall is constructed with step by step backfill compaction method, the accumulative horizontal deformation is inevitable. It has been reported that about 80% of horizontal deformation is occurred during the construction stage of reinforced earth retaining wall. To reduce the horizontal deformation, an isolated-reinforced earth wall method(KOESWall system) was newly developed. In this system, the reinforced earth is constructed first with reinforcements and backfills only, and then facing blocks are installed after the horizontal displacement of reinforced earth is fully occurred. To evaluate the effect of a construction method and the performance of KOESWall system, two cases of full scale field performance was monitored during and after the construction stages.
