In this study, a method for updating the finite element model of bridges with genetic algorithm using static displacement were presented, and verified this method using field test data for PSC girder bridge. As a field test, static load test and pseudo-static load test were conducted, and updated the finite element model of test bridge using each test data. Finally, evaluated the bridge load carrying capacity with updated model using pseudo-static load test's displacement data. To evaluate the bridge load carrying capacity, KHBDC-LSD, KHBDC and AASHTO LRFD's live load model were used, and compared the each results.

In case of rock bolt useable by tunnel reinforcement methods at field is applied problem of typical rock bolt pull test diagram method propositional in documents and is not thesis of clearness analysis basis about result of rock bolt pull test. So this paper suggested in consideration of foreign basis and field condition that the first, "suggestion of apposite diagram method at tight ground and difference application of rock bolt pull test method at loose and tight ground" and the second, "thesis of estimation basis non-thesis of design and specification, test etc".

Computer vision technology is a component inspection to obtain a video image from the camera to the machine to perform the capabilities of the human eye with a field of artificial intelligence, and then analyzed by the algorithm to determine to determine the good and bad of production parts It is widely applied. Shape inspection method was used as how to identify the location of the start point and the end point of the search range, measure the height to the line scan method, in such a manner as to determine the presence or absence of the bolt tabs average brightness of the inspection area in a circular scan type value And the degree of similarity was calculated. The total time it takes to test in the test performance tests of two types of bolts tab enables test 300 min, and demonstrated the accuracy and efficiency of the inspection on the production line represented a complete inspection accuracy.

Private electrical facilities are judged whether it is suitable for the insulation aging condition of their incoming underground cables using DC leakage current test method. In the case where the service point of utility is the secondary side of cut out switch installed in the electric pole, there is a problem that it is difficult to separate the lightning arresters(LA) because of their high position of the pole. Therefore, the field test voltage is applied at value lower than DC 30 kV, which are stated in the inspection guideline. However, this test could reduced the insulation performance of the LA by accelerating the electrical stress of the metal oxide varistor element in the pre-breakdown region. In this study, we analyzed the relationship between the DC test voltage and the leakage current using the non-destructive DC high voltage equipment with leakage current measurement function. The results show that the leakage current increases sharply above the specified test voltage. As a consequence, it could be contributed to improve insulation aging inspection method by selecting the possible test area on the VI characteristic curve of the pre-breakdown area of the LA.

The carbonation process is affected by both the concrete material properties such as W/C ratio, types of cement and aggregates, admixture characteristics and the environmental factors such as $CO_2$ concentration, temperature, humidity. Based on results of preliminary study on carbonation, this study is to develop a carbonation prediction model by taking account of $CO_2$ concentration, temperature, humidity ad W/C ratio among major factor affecting the carbonation process. And to constitute a model formula which correspond to the mix design of the nuclear power plant, test coefficient that correspond to the design of the nuclear power plant is obtained based on the results of accelerated carbonation test. Also a field coefficient which is obtained based on results of the field examination is included to improve the conformity of the actual structures of nuclear power plant.

Schmidt hammer and ultra-sonic method are commonly used for crushed sand concrete compressive strength test in a construction field. At present, various of equations for prediction of strength are present, which have been used in a construction field. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the correlation between prediction strength by presentation equations and destructive strength to test specimen, and find out which is a suitable equation for the construction site. In this study, a strength test was carried out destructive test by means of core sampling and traditional test. The experimental parameter were concrete age, curing condition, and strength level.

In the past few years, the nondestructive inspection technology has greatly developed due to the increased necessity to gain a complete understanding of the bridge behavior. Especially, the deformations of bridges contain a lot of informations about its health state. By measuring these deformations it is possible to analyze the loading and aging behavior of the structure. However, the current, methods (such as LVDT, dial gage, optical displacement transducer, etc) are often of changeable application on site and have the limitations of installation. In this paper, the classical beam theory was reviewed and the deflections of structure are estimated using measured strain which is easy to acquire. The applicability of this algorithm is verified by laboratory(simple reinforced concrete beam) and field test. By this test, we proposed correction factor to estimate deflection of reinforced concrete beam after cracking, and analyze about the generation of correction factor. Also fiber optic sensors as well as resistive strain gages were installed in the concrete beams to establish the applicability of fiber optic sensors in the field of civil engineering.

This paper studied on the development of standardization tester for the field inspection of the rate of rise spot type heat detector. It was to find the problems of the 4 type's testers such as A type (electric bulb type), B type (halogen lamp type), C type (heating coil type), D type (fumigator type) which were used to check of the rate of rise spot type heat detector in inspection for the fire protection. To identify those problems, this paper described about the development of standardization tester for the field inspection of the rate of rise spot type heat detector and that have the function of auto setting temperature more $30^{\circ}C$ higher than room temperature and keep the constant temperature. And keep the constant wind velocity of 85cm/sec. Performance verification results of the developed prototype that had same conditions such as the sensitivity test conditions at the type approval of the rate of rise spot type heat detector.

The damage inspection of container surface is performed by the expert inspectors at the container terminal gate of harbor. In this paper, we substitute the expert's capability with the damage inspection system using the artificial intelligent control algorithm and vision system, so we can improve the work environment and effectively decrease the inspection time and cost. Firstly, using six CCD cameras attached to the terminal gate, whole container is partially captured according to eleven sensors aligned with the entering direction of container. Captured partial images are inspected by the fuzzy system which the expert's technology is embedded. Next, we compose partial images to be a complete container image through the correlation coefficient method. Complete container image is saved to solve future troublesome problems. In this paper, the effectiveness of the proposed system was verified through the field test.

In this paper, the performance of bridge health monitoring system(BHMS) installed in suspension bridge was tested and the field loading tests have been done by using BHMS to get quantitative results on the response of bridge. Before the field tests, globally structural analysis was performed to verify and estimate the test results and the static and dynamic field loading tests were carried out. Depending on comparison with results of field tests and structural analysis, field tests results were evaluated as 30%~50% less than structural analysis results, so it was confirmed that the bridge has excellent structural performance. Therefore field test results were measured within an acceptable error range, so it is verified that the BHMS in the bridge has been reliable and efficient.
