Bi-2223/Ag HTS tapes fabricated by PIT process are used to make the power transmission cable, motor, fault current limiter, transformer etc. But some problems are still remained as like bubbling, sausaging to got the high Jc. In this study. we carried out the experiment to prevent bubbling in the HTS tape. The bubbling mainly occurred when HTS tape was heat-treating. Therefore, additional vacuum annealing at 400 ~ $600^{\circ}C$and slowly ramp-up sintering method were used to decrease the bubbling. slowly ramp-up sintering was more effective to decrease the bubbling than the vacuum annealing, but Jc was also decreased after heat treatment. Optimum ramp-up sintering schedule was searched to get the high critical current and prevent bubbling at same time.

Homogeneous and fine powders for Bi-2223 tape were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (SP) method from an aqueous solution of metal nitrates. Bi-2223 precursor powders were synthesized with various solutes concentration and pyrolysis temperature. The synthesized precursor powders had a narrow particle size distribution and an average particle size was $\~{\cal}um$. The reactivity of precursor powder by SP method is very high, attributed to the fine and narrow particle size distribution. Bi-2223/Ag tape was prepared using PIT method and followed by various sintering conditions. The precursor powder by SP method promoted a very quick formation of the Bi-2223 phase for short sintering time while the secondary phase such as large AEC phase and $Ca_2PbO_4$ were minimized for SP tapes.

The critical characteristics of Bi-2223 HTS tapes made by PIT method are influenced by the heat treatment and the mechanical processing. In this study firstly we investigated the influence o rolling reduction rate in mechanical process for improving Jc of HTS tapes. As a result the optimized rolling reduction rate that we obtained was 10%-50% and 30%-30% (1st-2nd). And then we fabricated the stacking type HTS tapes that made of the multi-filamentary tapes with various length(3, 5, 10cm) and with various number of stacking (1, 5, 10 layer). Measuring the critical current and observing the structure of grain we concluded that the stacking type tapes will be able to operate more stably by adding the number of stacking tapes. And we could expect that by minimizing the gap between Ag-sheath of tapes mechanical strength of stacking HTS tapes is enhanced and current in tapes will flow more stably.

The various type Ag sheathed Bi-2223 tapes have been were fabricated by Powder-in-tube(PIT) process. The critical current density could be improved with the value of $23,000\;A/cm^2$(77 K, zero field) in the single concentric Bi-2223 tape. The bending property dependence of $I_c$ was improved in the double concentric Bi-2223 tape compared with single filamentary and single concentric one.

The Mixed building structures can be divided into three partition, namely, upper wall, lower frame, and transfer system which link two partitions. The purpose of this study is to investigate the nonlinear response characteristics of structures, as the stories of lower frame of mixed building structures changes. The recorded earthquake ground motions of EI Centro 1940 NS is adopted, and the maximum ground accelerations are adjusted to 55ga1, 110ga1, 220ga1, 330ga1. The conclusions of this study are the following. 1) The responses of model that the story of lower frame is one were different from those of other models. 2) The process of ductility hinge occurrence of member was ends of coupling beam of upper wall and ends of beam of lower frame in 55ga1, bases of shear wall on pit floor in 110ga1, and bases of column of 1F in 220ga1.

BSCCO-2223 superconducting tape made by PIT method can be influenced in the critical characteristics by the heat treatment and the mechanical processing. Particulary, it has been reported that the mechanical deformation affects the core density, texture of the core, sausaging and so on. Therefore the accurate control of the deformation process is very important to achieve high J$\sub$c/. In this study, we measured the J$\sub$c/ variation for different rolling reduction rate and investigated the change of core shape to compare the formation of sausaging.

Superconducting racetrack coils are used in areas of generators, motors, wiggler magnets and so on. Especially now a days many advanced nations including U.S., Japan are developing high temperature superconducting(HTS) wire which has better performance than low temperature superconducting(LTS) wire. Most of HTS wires such as Bi-2223 are manufactured with PIT(Power In Tube Method) process, so the shape of the wire looks like tape different from LTS wire of round shape as normal conductors. Generally HTS racetrack coils are composed of a few partial double-pancake colis and then the double-pancakes are jointed each other according to their applications.

Many researches on synthesis process for BSCCO precursor powders have been developed for high J$_{c}$ BSCCO-2223/Ag tape. Spray pyrolysis method for fabrication of precursor powder has many advantages, such as high purity, fine particle size of BSCCO precursor powder. Fine, spherical powders were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis from the aqueous solution of metal nitrates. BSCCO precursor powders were synthesized with 0.1 M concentration and heat treatment conditions. Average particle size for spray pyrolysis powders was 1.5 ~ 3 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. BSCCO -2223/Ag tape was prepared by PIT method and followed by various sintering conditions. The critical current density of BSCCO-2223/Ag tape sintered in low oxygen partial pressure was ~ 23 kAcm$^{-2}$.

In order to investigate the effect of cryogenic rolling on the critical current density (Jc), 54 and 55-multi-filament Bi-2223/hg tapes have been fabricated using a PIT process including two different types of cooling methods. The densification of oxide filament was found to occur due to the cryogenic rolling, and this enhanced the critical current density. However, when the wire was fully immersed in liquid nitrogen used as the coolant in cryogenic rolling, Jc degradation appeared caused by the nitrogen penetration into the filament. The cryogenically rolled tape with an improved type of cooling showed approximately 10％ Jc's increase.
