As the growing concern about environment and earthquake for the concrete structure, many seismic rehabilitation and retrofitting methods have recently been studied but they are not coping enough with the changes of structure, specificly various problems have been found in seismic rehabilitation method - both in exposure or non exposure - when they are implemented to the underground structure, utility conduit, water supply facilities, underground wall, parking lot, road pavement, and elevated structure etc. This study is about the seismic rehabilitation method using environmentally friendly functional inorganic mortar and resilient material, and it is effectively retrofitted seismic performance as it reinforces not only physical strength, but also flexural and bond strength from the resilient material, and it has been analyzed and evaluated when the environmentally friendly functional inorganic mortar and the resilient material are applied so as to countermeasure the effect of earthquake and viable problems and approved for possibility of various applications and wide use.

This study was conducted to determine the resilient modulus (Mr) and the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of two recycled roadway materials such as recycled pavement material (RPM) and road surface gravel (RSG) with or without cement kiln dust (CKD). The recycled materials were blended with two CKD contents (5, 10 %) and 28 day curing time. Mr and UCS tests were also conducted after 10cycles of freezing and thawing to asses the impact of freeze-thaw cycling. Mr was determined conducting by the laboratory test method described by NCHRP 1-28A. Stabilized RPM and RSG had a modulus and a strength higher than unstabilized RPM and RSG. Mr and UCS of RPM and RSG mixed with CKD increased with increasing CKD content. The results indicated that the addition of CKD could be improved the strength and the stiffness of RPM and RSG. Therefore, RPM, RSG and CKD could be used as an effective materials in the reconstruction of roads.

In the trackbed design using elastic multilayer model, the stress-dependent resilient modulus $(E_R)$ is an important input parameter, that is, reflects substructure performance under repeated traffic loading. However, the evaluation method for resilient modulus using repeated loading triaxial test is not fully developed for practical purpose, because of costly equipment and the significantly fluctuated values depending on the testing equipment and laboratory personnel. The this study, the paper will present an indirect method to estimate the resilient modulus using dynamic properties. The resilient modulus of crushed stone, which is the typical material of sub-ballast, was calculated with the measured dynamic properties and the range of stress level of the sub-ballast, and approximated with the power model combined with bulk and deviatoric stresses. The resilient modulus of coarse grained material decreases with increasing deviatoric stress at a confining pressure, and increases with increasing bulk stress. Sandy soil (SM classified from Unified Soil Classification System) of subgrade was also evaluated and best fitted with the power model of deviatoric stress only.

The floating floor is a structure which introduced to reduce the noise of apartment houses. This structure can decrease vibration energy through resilient materials. However, it is limited to completely construct resilient materials in South Korea due to floor heating structure and other reasons. And It is a controversial issue how well the resilient materials should be constructed to prevent floor impact noise. These resilient defect areas are typically found in wall corners, door sills, hot water dispenser in kitchen and areas where thermal insulation is attached. This study investigates the acoustical effect of the defect areas in two ways. First, it is analyzed by several assumption conditions and calculated how much deviation would occur. Then we researched the deviation of the 76 field test data about light-weight floor impact noise. This study could be useful for a constructor to determine how much should minimize resilient materials defect areas.

Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is a type of geosynthetic material manufactured with various strengths, unit weights, and dimensions. Due to recent advances in research on EPS, the use of EPS has increased dramatically. This super light weight material has a unit weight of approximately $0.16{\sim}0.47kN/m^3$, equivalent to 6.3~15.7 of that of most natural soils with conditions of fill materials. In spite of this advantage, it is noted that no standard method of resilient modulus test on EPS geofoam was reported and no literature on resilient modulus test methods for EPS geofoam exist. The main object of this study was to investigate feasibility of the resilient modulus of EPS when it was applied for flexible pavement. The investigation of the feasibility was completed based on the results from triaxial tests.

Recently, for the purpose of improving the isolation performance of impact noise, many resilient materials have been installed in a residential building. As one of the reduction method for improving the performance of light-weight impact noise, this study is focused on the load condition of floating layer over resilient material. We studied the correlation between the mass or load of the floating layer and the reduction of light-weight impact noise by experiments in reverberation chamber for testing the impact noise. The results show that the reduction of impact noise is improved by increasing the mass per unit area of floating layer until about $140kg/m^2$. But the reduction is not obvious by adding extra mass on the floating layer.

Resilient materials are used to reduce the floor impact sound in apartment buildings. Since an on-dol layer is installed in the resilient materials' upper part, thickness deformation can be occur in the resilient material. It is necessary to check a thickness deformation grade for a long period of time. In this research, we measured thickness deformation over 400th day to the resilient materials(EPP, EPS, EVA) which is used in Korea. Although there was a difference according to the kind of measurement test specimens, it became clear that thickness was decreases as to time increased. The thickness deformation grade of ten years after was calculated based on the thickness measurement result. Compare with the calculated result and result of ISO 20392. Larger thickness deformation occurred in the measurement result of these research findings compare with the ISO standard.

Recently, the rational methods of pavement design and analysis using the resilient modulus, MR, as fundamental input material property have been increasingly adopted in major advanced countries. Since the development of 1986 AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures, many researches concerning the resilient characteristics of various pavement materials as well . as development of reliable testing methods have been actively performed. Anticipating the use of Mn-based pavement design and analysis such as resilient characteristics and Mn - CBR relat - ionship of domestic subgrade soils were performed including development of a standard MR test procedure suitable for subgrade soils in our country.

In this paper, the process of development of resilient sleepers, which improves the train safety, passenger comport and reduces the noise and vibration, is presented. To determine the required material properties of elastic pad, static and dynamic simulations are performed and is applied in manufacturing. Lateral resistance and durability characteristics of the resilient sleepers are experimentally investigated. From the experiment results, it is investigated that the displacement is less for sleeper with elastic pad than that in ordinary PC form. However, the lateral resistance is investigated little less -for sleeper with elastic pad than ordinary PC form. These results indicate that the elastic pad can reduce possibility of rail-corrugations and thus resulting in the reduction of maintenance costs.
