본 연구에서는 야외용 가스보일러 형상에 따른 연소판을 열응력 결과를 통해 분석하였다. 정상상태 모드로 계산한 결과, 최대 응력 및 변형은 A형상과 B형상에서 각각 666.8MPa, 0.20476mm로 분석되었다. 변형은 연소판 중심에서 바깥쪽으로 갈수록 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한, 8가지 형상 중에서 최대 응력과 변형은 F와 C형상이 가장 안전함을 각각 보였다. 따라서, 8가지 형상 중에서 F형상이 강도 및 안전성 측면에서 가장 우수하다고 판단되었으며, 가스보일러의 연소판 형상에 따른 계산된 결과를 분석함으로서 보일러 시스템에 대한 안전한 구성요소 변수를 실질적으로 적용할 수 있는 모델을 설계할 수 있게 되었다.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to evaluate the assessment of exposure to welding fume and heavy metals among construction welders. Methods: Activity-specific personal air samplings(n=206) were carried out at construction sites of three apartment, two office buildings, and two plant buildings using PVC(poly vinyl chloride) filters with personal air samplers. The concentration of fumes and heavy metals were evaluated for five different types of construction welding jobs: general building pipefitter, chemical plant pipefitter, boiler maker, ironworker, metal finishing welder. Results: The concentration of welding fumes was highest among general building pipefitters($4.753mg/m^3$) followed by ironworkers($3.765mg/m^3$), boilermakers($1.384mg/m^3$), metal finishing welders($0.783mg/m^3$), chemical pipefitters($0.710mg/m^3$). Among the different types of welding methods, the concentration of welding fumes was highest with the $CO_2$ welding method($2.08mg/m^3$) followed by SMAW(shield metal arc welding, $1.54mg/m^3$) and TIG(tungsten inert gas, $0.70mg/m^3$). Among the different types of workplace, the concentration of welding fumes was highest in underground workplaces($1.97mg/m^3$) followed by outdoor($0.93mg/m^3$) and indoor(wall opening as $0.87mg/m^3$). Specifically comparing the workplaces of general building welders, the concentration of welding fumes was highest in underground workplaces($7.75mg/m^3$) followed by indoor(wall opening as $2.15mg/m^3$). Conclusions: It was found that construction welders experience a risk of expose to welding hazards at a level exceeding the exposure limits. In particular, for high-risk welding jobs such as general building pipefitters and ironworkers, underground welding work and $CO_2$ welding operations require special occupational health management regarding the use of air supply and exhaust equipment and special safety and health education and fume mask are necessary. In addition, there is a need to establish construction work monitoring systems, health planning and management practices.
