The purpose of culvert design is to determine optimum size for a safe drainage of flood discharge. The present method of culvert design in Korea is generally carried out by using "Road Drainage Design" of Korea Expressway Corporation (1991), which is based on the manual of Federal Highway Association (FHWA) of USA. However, this method may result in subjective error because of using graphs and the usage of nomograph can be a major obstacle for computer modelling. Some errors found in the previous works of culvert design are corrected, and a new logic has been developed for a simple determination of culvert size in this study. FHWA (1985) presents a nomograph to determine the critical water depth and the velocity head for a circular pipe, but in this study simple explicit equations have been developed to determine both respectively.

In order to investigate inherent erodibility of the soil, which is a major factor is soil erosion prediction, a survey on runoff and soil loss of reclaimed upland soil was carried out by using a portable rainulator. The relations of soil loss and some physical properties of the soil were discussed. The soil erodibility factor for Universal soil loss equation was calculated and compared with that of Wischmeier's nomograph. The result were as follows: 1. Total runoff increased for finer textured soil in order of Jeonnam silty clay loam, Songjeong clay loam, Yesan loam, Samgag and Sangju sandy loam. Total soil loss and soil content in runoff were not correspondently related with textural characteristic in order of Jeonnam, Samgag, Sangju, Yesan, and Songjeong. Total runoff, soil loss, and soil content in runoff were increased for steeper slope. 2. Soil loss and soil content in runoff negatively correlated with organic matter content of surface soil, while positively correlated with dispersion ratio, clay ratio, silt content, and significantly correlated with Middleton erosion ratio for coarser textured soil but not correctly related for finer textured soil. 3. The soil erodibilty factor K values for Universal soil loss equation were 0.32 for Jeonnam, 0.22 for Samgag, 0.17 for Sangju, 0.15 for Yesan, and 0.13 for Songjeong respectively. These values were close to those from Wischmeier's nomograph. So, it seems that the nomograph is useful for estimation of soil loss in Korea.

Lighting is one of the largest energy consumption in commercial building. For saving such lighting energy, integrated lighting system with daylight and artificial lighting has been suggested. In such system, perimeter zone can be illuminated by daylighting and the deep area of room by artificial lighting. So, the study aimed to develope of lighting energy prediction nomograph by turnning-off depth and lighting control systems during daytime. For the purpose, energy nomo-graph has been developed to apply to side-lit office building and the use and limitation of the nomograph has been discussed.

This study is conducted to find out soil erodibility factor K value which is one of the most important factor to estimate soil loss using a new method for predicting K value, the nomograph, that was first proposed by Whischmeier. K values for 83 soil series including upland and forest soils in Korea were checked up. The result were as follows: The average K value was 0.27 with ranging between 0.05 and 0.51. K values were higher for finer textured soils than for coarser textured soils widely ranged in a textural class, and higher for silty textured and low permeable soils. K value was correlated inversely with organic matter content in range of 3 to 13 percent, but the tendency was not related in range of lower than 3 percent.

The goal of this paper is to determine the accurate effective length factor(K factor) for buckling design of plane frames and to point out the practical limitations of the alignment chart which provides the approximate effective length factor. At present, the most general method to obtain K factors is to use the alignment chart which is given in the form of nomograph in LRFD-AISC specification commentaries. However it should be realized that various simplifications and assumptions were used in obtaining the alignment chart. Therefore, a simple but effective method to obtain accurate K-factors through the stability analysis of plane frames is developed in this study. To demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of the present scheme, K-factors by system buckling analysis of frames are calculated and compared with those calculated by the alignment chart.

Today, there are increasing evidences that daylight is essential for health, well-being and productivity. One of the strong contributions, which atria can make to advantages in building, is in allowing the use of daylight. This research is to develop nomographs and to evaluate the daylight performances of toplit atria with louvers. For this purpose, the evaluation models of toplit atria with well indexes of 0.5, 1.0 or 2.0 have been selected through the field surveys of atrium buildings in Seoul area. Also, weather data for solar irradiance and luminous efficacy were gathered from the recently conducted previous researches. The computer simulations were performed under clear sky conditions, using the ADELINE program, and various daylight performances were analyzed by the daylight illumination ratio. Analyzing the simulation results, solar altitude, solar azimuth, and louver angle and louver reflectance were found to be important factors affecting the daylight performance of toplit atria. Using these variables, regression equations have been formulated, and the nomographs, which may predict the daylight performances of toplit atria with louvers, were developed. The developed nomographs were validated through comparing the results of nomograph predictions to the results of scale-model experiments.

The purpose of this study was to analyze daylighting performance in a semi-infinite size office space for lighting energy conservation. DOE2.1E was used for simulations for the model space of $12\times12\times2.6m$. Nomographs were developed which could simulate work plane illuminance, glare index, energy consumption rate and energy reduction rate for daylighting design. Major results of simulations are as follows ; 1) When blinds facing south were installed, 43% of workplane illuminance diminished, but the flare index didn't exceed the recommended max-glare value. 2) In a semi-infinite office space facing south. energy consumption rate in the case space of 500 lux workplane illuminance is larger then case space of 300 lux workplane illuminance. Therefore, energy reduction rate is increased when the semi-infinite office faces south and naintains 300 lux workplane illuminance level.

전 세계 홍수 피해에 노출된 인구가 20년 만에 약 25% 증가한 것으로 나타났는데, 수재해 복구에 드는 비용이 수재해 예방을 위한 비용에 6배에 달했다. 수재해는 비용적인 손실과 아울러 인명피해가 크기 때문에 이를 예방하기 위한 대책 마련이 시급하다. 특히 국내에서 근래 10년간 전체 수재해 중 약 40%가 소하천에서 발생했는데, 이를 해결하는 방안으로 행정안전부와 국립재난안전연구원은 CCTV 기반 자동유량계측기술을 제시했다. 소하천은 홍수도달시간이 매우 짧고 하상이 불규칙하며 표고차가 커 일반적인 수리모형을 이용해 실시간 홍수 예·경보를 위한 홍수량 예측이 어렵다. 또한 대부분의 소하천은 수문 계측이 이뤄지지 않고 있어 하상 특성을 충분히 반영해 홍수량을 산정하기 어려운 문제가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 CCTV 기반 자동유량계측기술로부터 수집된 자료들을 이용해 노모그래프를 작성하고 예측강우량만으로 홍수량을 추정해 실시간 홍수 예·경보에 적용할 수 있는 방법을 개발했다. 이때 실시간으로 계측 유량 자료를 반영해 노모그래프를 자동으로 갱신해 예측정확도를 개선할 수 있다. CCTV 기반 자동유량계측기술 검증을 위한 시범 소하천 4개소에 적용한 결과 실시간 자동보정 노모그래프를 이용하면 정확도 향상에 도움을 주는 것으로 나타나 향후 홍수 예·경보를 위한 홍수량 산정에 도움을 줘 수재해를 경감 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

우리나라의 하천은 그 중요도와 규모에 따라 국가·지방·소하천 및 세천 등으로 분류하고 있다. 우리나라 하천 관리는 주로 국가 지방하천을 중심으로 이루어지고 있다. 특히 수리량 계측에 있어서 대부분의 수위 유량 관측시설이 국가 지방하천에 위치해 있으며, 소하천에 대한 관측은 거의 이루어 지지 않고 있다. 이로 인해 소하천 설계기준의 홍수량 산정 공식은 국내 중규모 이상 하천의 경험식이나 외국의 소하천 경험식에 기반한 매개변수를 따르고 있어, 국내 소하천의 특성을 반영하지 못하고 있다. 국립재난안전연구원에서는 국내 소하천 특성에 적합한 설계기준 개발 및 홍수량 산정을 위해 소하천 자동유량계측기술을 개발하고, 전국 소하천의 10%(2,230개소)에 설치·운영하는 것을 목표로 행정안전부 및 지자체와 협력하여 확대 구축을 추진 중이다. 소하천은 유로연장이 짧고 유역면적이 크지 않아 도달시간이 짧은 것이 특징으로, 강우-유량 노모그래프를 사용하여 소하천 홍수 예·경보를 위한 홍수량 산정이 가능하다. 강우-유량 관계는 선행강우에 따른 토양의 포화상태와 강우 발생 시점의 기저유량 등에 영향을 많이 받는다. 본 연구에서는 자동유량계측기술 설치 시범소하천 5개소의 계측데이터를 사용하여 선행강우를 고려한 강우-유량 노모그래프를 개발하였다. 또한, 뉴로-퍼지 기법과 회귀분석을 사용한 홍수량 예측결과와 비교 연구를 수행하였다.

In order to obtain the effective length factor of beam-column members of plane frames, this paper extensively used an alignment chart approach, based on the nomograph given in LRFD-AISC specification commentaries. However, it should be noted that various simplifications and assumptions were introduced in constructing the alignment chart. To overcome the practical limitations of the alignment chart, this paper proposes a simple but accurate procedure that determined the effective buckling length for stability design of main members of cable-supported bridges. This method requires the full system buckling analysis. The numerical examples showing the suitability of the present scheme are discussed and some conclusions are drawn.
