  • The building that supply tidal and splash zone was constructed near Seamangeum Gate Bridge. The specimens that will be tested for maintenance of gate bridge were exposed on the tidal and splash zone, totally about 650(Fig. 1). The characteristics of strength, salt penetration profile, field application of surface repair material and section recover material will be acquired by periodical test. The program was developed to obtain optimal maintenance strategy of gate bridge as a marine concrete structure and to deposit experimental data, lab. test result, field test result, on its D/B. On this paper, we hope to introduce two years exposure data as compressive strength, the modulus of elasticity, the modulus of dynamic elasticity, field adoption of repair and recover materials. As briefly speaking the results, possion's ratio, elasticity, strength was general, but the recover materials have some problems. There was crack between concrete and recover material and delamination figures.

  • Hydrophobicity is the key concept to understand the water plays in protein folding, protein aggregation, and protein-protein interaction. Traditionally, the hydrophobicity of protein is defined based on the scales of the hydrophobicity of residue, assuming that the hydrophobicity of free amino acids is maintained. Here, we explore how the hydrophobicity of constituting amino acids in protein rely on the protein context, in particular, on the total charge and secondary structures of a protein. To this end, we calculate and investigate the hydration free energy of three short proteins based on the integral-equation theory of liquids. We find that the hydration free energy of charged amino acids is significantly affected by the protein total charge and exhibits contrasting behavior depending on the protein total charge being positive or negative. We also observe that amino acids in the ${\beta}-sheets$ display more enhanced the hydrophobicity than amino acids in the loop, whereas those in the ${\alpha}-helix$ do not clearly show such a tendency. And the salt-bridge forming amino acids also exhibit increase of the hydrophobicity than that with no salt bridge. Our results provide novel insights into the hydrophobicity of amino acids, and will be valuable for rationalizing and predicting the strength of water-mediated interaction involved in the biological activity of proteins.

  • For a quantitative inspection on the performance of weathering steel bridges, we have investigated the relationship between the corrosion rate and the composition of the rust layers formed on weathering steel bridges located in various environments in Japan and applied a protective ability index (PAI) to the bridges. The corrosion rates were clearly classified by the PAI, ${\alpha}/{\gamma}*$ and sub index of $({\beta}+s)/{\gamma}*$, where $\alpha$, \gamma*, $\beta$ and s are the mass ratio of crystalline $\alpha-FeOOH$, the total of $\gamma$-FeOOH+ $\beta$-FeOOH + the spinel-type iron oxide (mainly $Fe_3O_4$), $\beta-FeOOH$ and spinel-type iron oxide, analyzed by powder X-ray diffraction, respectively. In the case of ${\alpha}/{\gamma}$*>1, the rust layer works protective enough to reduce the corrosion rate less than 0.01 mm/y. The sub index $({\beta}+s)/{\gamma}*$<0.5 or >0.5 classifies the corrosion rate of the non-protective rust layers, therefore the former state of the rust layer terms inactive and the latter terms active. The quantitative inspection of a weathering steel bridge requires a performance-inspection (PI) and periodical deteriorationinspections (DI). The PI can be completed by checking of the PAI, ${\alpha}/{\gamma}*$. The DI on the weathering steel bridges where deicing salt is sprinkled can be performed by checking the PAI, $({\beta}+s)/{\gamma}*$.

  • The Advanced Spent Fuel Conditioning Process(ACP), which is the process of the reduction of uranium oxide by lithium metal in a high temperature molten salt bath for spent fuel, was developed at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI). Since the ACP equipment is located in an intense radiation field (hot cell) as well as in a high temperature, it must be remotely operated and maintained. The ACP hot cell is very narrow so the workspace of the wall-mounted mechanical Master-Slave Manipulators(MSMs) is restricted. A Bridge Transported Servo Manipulator(BTSM) system has been developed to overcome the limitation of an access that is a drawback of the mechanical MSMs. The BTSM system consists ot a bridge crane with telescoping tubeset, a slave manipulator, a master manipulator, and a control system. We applied a bilateral position-position control scheme with friction compensation as force-reflecting controller. In this paper, the transmission characteristics on the tendon-and-pulley train is numerically formulated and analyzed. Also, we evaluate the performance of the force-reflecting servo manipulator.

  • A deserted town once vibrant with active commercial activities around a railroad station now tries to find a way to escape from depression and revive its life with a renewed civic pride. An open space adjacent to the Main Street, the commercial district of Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts, is waiting to be transformed and reconfigured to be a new ecological park to boost the economy of the community. Bridge Park is 26-acre land abutting the Cape Cod Canal with a railroad bridge as a backdrop. The existing condition of the site with a small salt marsh, woodland, lawn, and the vestige of old railroad easement along with the proximity to the commercial district poses an interesting question of how to make a medium scaled ecological park within an urban context. This paper examines the winning design proposals for the Bridge Park submitted to the International Design Competition held in April, 2005. Six winning proposals were introduced and discussed in terms of categories related to the trend of contemporary landscape design such as; 1) ecological ordinariness and geometric figures, 2) topography and spatial imagination, 3) minimal programs and open put 4) time and process oriented design, 5) park and economic effects and 6) diagrammatic plan and photo montage. Bridge Park Design Competition confirms the complex characteristics representing the contemporary landscape design overcoming the dichotomy between nature and culture and the 'pastoral ecological design' and 'landscape as an art'. The Park becomes the activating agent for the community rejecting the conventional and passive role as a romantic picturesque landscape. Bridge Park International Design Competition is a meaningful event to test the idea of new ecological urban park, and to fine-tune the trend of the contemporary urban park design.

  • Recently, the deterioration of reinforced concrete structures, primarily due to corrosion of steel reinforcement, has become a major concern. Chloride-induced deterioration is the most important deterioration phenomenon in reinforced concrete structures in harsh environments. For the realistic prediction of chloride penetration into concrete, a mathematical model was developed in which the effects of diffusion, chloride binding and convection due to water movement can be taken into account. The aim of this research was to reach a better understanding on the physical mechanisms underlying the deterioration process of reinforced concrete associated with chloride-induced corrosion and to propose a reliable method for estimating these effects. Chloride concentrations coming from de-icing salts are significantly influenced by the exposure conditions such as salt usage, ambient temperature and repeated wet-dry cycles.

  • PSCB 거더교는 고속도로에서 공용중인 교량의 4%로 많은 비중을 차지하고 있지는 않지만, PSCB 거더교의 약 98%가 1·2종 교량이며 전체 교량 연장의 약 16%(192km)를 차지하는 만큼 유지관리가 매우 중요한 교량 형식 중 하나이다. PSCB 거더교의 손상유형을 분석하기 위해 고속도로 공용중 교량의 가설공법, 제설환경 노출등급 비율을 고려한 62개소(477경간) 정밀안전진단 보고서를 선정하여 상세 분석을 수행함과 동시에 실제 열화·손상이 발생한 교량의 현장조사를 수행하였으며, 그 결과 대부분의 열화·손상 원인은 교면포장으로 유입된 우수(염수)가 상부플랜지와 계면 사이에 체수되어 콘크리트가 열화되고, 이후 교면포장의 균열 및 파손, 철근의 부식·팽창으로 인한 콘크리트 박락 등으로 진전되어 나타난 것으로 조사되었다. 또한, 상부플랜지 하면에 발생한 교축방향 균열 원인은 수화열, 건조수축 등으로 인한 균열로 판단된다. 결론적으로 PSCB 거더교의 특성을 고려한 합리적인 유지관리를 위해서는 시공초기 발생되는 상부플랜지 하면 교축방향 균열 제어를 위한 설계측면의 개선 방안이 제시되어야 할 것이며, 공용중 발생되는 열화는 상부플랜지 열화 이전 교면포장의 유지관리를 통한 선제적 대응과 제설환경 노출등급에 따른 차별화된 유지관리 방안이 제시되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

  • The objective of this study was to evaluate chemical water quality by hourly monitoring(25hr) of Saemangeum esturary. For this study, we selected 2 sites like a Mangyong Bridge(St. 6) and Dongjin Bridge(St. 7). Inflow of salt water was not detected during low tide(maximum 553, 508cm) of all stations, while the salinity rises were detected in spring tide(750cm). When 602m of maximum tide was reached, salinity concentration was increased at St. 7, while there was no change in St. 6. Therefore, We know that salinity variation is greatly influenced by tide height at survey site. Also, significant variance of salinity(p<0.05) was found between St. 6 and St. 7 because dike construction made the flood tide move into the Dongjin river. Total suspened solids(TSS) concentration was increased because of the river runoff at St. 6, and also the turbulance and resuspension according to salt intrusion at St. 7. During the high tide, the water discharge from the sea seemed to dilute the nutrient but to elevate TSS concentration in St. 7. Silicate and nitrate concentrations in the studied site were decreased by the mixing of sea water, whereas the evident trend of phosphate concentration was not found. This result can be explained by the phosphorus condition. Phosphorus exists inactive when it is affected by hydrated iron and adsorbed onto suspended matters. Compared to the environmental conditions of the St. 6 and St. 7, physical factors such as temperature, dissolved oxygen and TSS have statistically no significant difference(p<0.001), but nutrient concentrations were higher at St. 6 than St. 7. It could be suggested from these results that it is important to control the discharge of fresh water by sewage treatment plants located in St. 6 for water quality management.

  • 도장, 용사 및 도금 등의 강교용 방청법의 장기내구성 평가에는 대기노출실험법이 사용되고 있으나, 노화데이터를 얻기까지는 수년에서 수십 년이라는 장기간의 실험기간을 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 방청법을 포함하여 최근에 개발, 사용되고 있는 강교용 방청법의 장기내구성의 단기간 평가를 위한 기초단계로서 무도장 강재의 부식내구성 평가를 위한 부식환경 촉진실험법의 활용에 대해 검토하였다. 본 실험에는 일본공업규격(JIS)에 규정되어 있는 S6-cycle 부식환경 촉진실험조건을 이용하여, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150일간의 무도장 강재의 부식 중량감소량 및 두께감소량의 경시변화를 정량적으로 평가하였다. 그리고 기존의 대기노출실험과 본 실험으로부터 구한 중량감소량을 이용하여 촉진배율을 산출하고, 대기노출실험지의 지역환경구분, 해안선으로부터 거리, 아황산가스량 및 비래(飛來)염분량과의 관계를 검토하였다. 그 결과, 촉진배율을 비래염분량으로 정식화하였으며, S6-cycle 부식촉진실험결과의 대기노출환경에의 활용 가능성을 제시하였다.
