It is very important entity that a map of urban facility is in civic life and development of city. But now, there are many needs of computerization which was used for management of urban facility map because inefficiency was produced due to management of urban facility map by hand. This paper, it was showed that a processing of establishing database in computer by applying GIS. The used sample area in studying in Ansan city in Kyunggi province and a sewer pipe which was in there adapted to establish database in computer. A map of administration district, which is 1:38,000, a map of complex urban planning of city, which is 1:3,000, and the facility map were used for the input of spatial data and the address, the year when sewer pipe was burried, and the quality of pipe, the pipe diameter, and the length of pipe were used as attribute data. Relational structure was used for establishment of database then, searching, analyzing, and processing were possible. Additionary, the result of this studying can be used for replacement of a old sewer pipe, a material quantity which is related with repairement of sewer pipe, and calculation of time, cost by application program framed by Fortran.

It is well known that water leakage from decrepit sewer pipe mainly causes frequent occurrence of ground subsidence in urban area. Thus, laboratory model tests were carried out to investigate ground behaviour according to location of sewer fracture and various relative densities of surrounding soil. The portion of fractured pipe was assumed to be 20% compared to the circumference of pipe, and to be positioned at the top and bottom of the pipe. Ground conditions were made as loose sand ($D_r=30%$) and dense sand ($D_r=70%$). In addition, comparison and analysis with results of model tests were carried out by Finite Element analysis. As a result, not only water leakage from the bottom of pipe (scenario 2) caused greater ground behaviour than leakage from the top of pipe (scenario 1), but also much greater surface settlement occurred when the ground condition is loose.

The present study analyzed actual cases of designed flow estimation method and designed flow rate of sewage pipe lines. In order to examine the effects of peak-hour demand factor estimation with given daily highest peak loading, we analyzed its effects on designed flow rate with changing the peak-hour demand factor from 2.0 to 10.0. The results of this study are as follows. When reviewing the recent designs, we found that 59.4% of pipe line with 250mm and 300mm diameter, which fall under minimum allowable pipeline did not meet the minimum velocity which is specified as 0.6m/sec in design standards. The pipe line that have minimal access population or have very low slope did not satisfy the minimum velocity. In estimating the designed sewage flow, the applied daily highest peak loading and hourly highest peaking loading were the load factor for the entire population of the planned area, and for the peak loading of the initial pipes connected to a very small population, we applied the same factor as that applied to the entire area and, as a result, the hourly highest flow was underestimated. Because, in case of the initial pipes, the method of applying the same peak loading to all subject areas is highly possible to produce underestimated design flow, when estimating the designed flow of the initial pipes connected to a small population need to adopt a rational flow factor according to the size of population. For this, it is considered to investigate and analyze raw data on daily and hourly variation of sewage flow.

To perform long-term sewer monitoring, It is important to understand the nature of the wastewater flow that occurs at the point on early stage of the monitor and to prevent in advance a problem which may caused. We can infer the flow properties and external factors by analyzing the scatter graph obtained from the measured data flow rate monitoring data since an field external factor affecting the sewage flow is reflected in the flow rate monitoring data. In this study, Selecting the three points having various external factors, and we Inferred the sewer flow characteristics from depth-velocity scatter graph and determined the analysis equation for the dry-weather flow rate data. At the'point 1' expected non-pressure flow, we were able to see the drawdown effect caused by the free fall in the manhole section. At the'point 2', existed weir and sediments, there was backwater effect caused by them, and each of size calculated from the scatter graph analysis were 400 mm and 130 mm. At the'Point 3', there is specific flow pattern that is coming from flood wave propagation generated by the pump station at upstream. In common, adequate equations to explain the dry weather flow data are flume equation and modified manning equation(SS method), and the equations had compatibility for explaining the data because all of $R^2$ values are over 0.95.

The objective of sewer rehabilitation is to improve its function while eliminating inflow/infiltration (I/I) and insufficient carrying capacity (ICC). Such rehabilitation efforts, however, have not been particularly successful due to a lack of sewer data and unsystematic field practices. The present study aimed to solve these problems by developing a decision making model consisting of two models: the rehabilitation weighting model (RWM) and the rehabilitation priority model (RPM). In RWM, the I/I of each pipe in a drainage district is estimated according to various defects, with each defect given an individual weighting factor using an analytic hierarchy process (AHP). RPM determines the optimal rehabilitation priority (ORP) using a genetic algorithm (GA). The developed models can be used to overcome the problems associated with unsystematic practices and, in practice, as a decision making tool for urban sewer system rehabilitation.

In this study, basic physical tests and mechanical tests of crushed rock were performed in order to investigate the field application of crushed rock as substitute materials of sand that is commonly being used as foundation and backfill materials of sewer conduit. Particle-size distribution curve of crushed rock is similar to sand and also it is well-graded soil than common sand. Maximum dry unit weight in proctor compaction test for crushed rock is higher than the values of common sand. So we can estimate that the crushed rock has advantages in workability than sand for the backfill compaction after construction of sewer conduit. When we investigate the results of direct shear test and triaxial compression test on the crushed rock, it has a similar value of shear strength parameters to sand at the same stress state and as time goes by, it tends to increase the unconfined compression strength. But, because the strength reaches at the constant value after 6~7 days, we expect that it can absorb the lateral strain of flexible conduit well. All the above experimental results just proves that crushed rock can substitute for sand as backfill materials and foundation of sewer conduit.

Developed ground cavity due to leakage of decrepit old sewer pipe causes ground surface settlement and brittle fracture of pavement. Recently, for 5 years, frequency of occurrence of ground subsidence phenomenon tends to increase rapidly and/or steadily. It is difficult to investigate ground surface settlement and/or subsidence in urban area because most ground surfaces are covered with asphalt or concrete pavement. In this research, therefore, ground surface settlement, influence zone and settlement of sewer pipe were analyzed using finite element method. Not only reinforced effect of pseudo-plastic backfill that is applied to prevent ground surface settlement or subsidence spot, was compared and analyzed using numerical analysis program, but also direct shear test was carried out to determine strength parameters of pseudo-plastic backfill.

Concern about nonpoint source pollution associated with urban storm water has led to the development of new tools for better water quality planning. This paper presents an application of a geographic information system (GIS) for urban water quality study. The GIS was used to manage land use data for nonpoint source pollution modeling and to aggregate pollutant loadings within various types of geographic units. An empirical water quality model was used to estimate pollutant loadings based primarily on land use. A land use coverage was created by updating an old coverage through interpretation of recent photography. This land use coverage was also used to record all pollutant loadings for each land use polygon. Storm sewer maps were digitized and interpreted to create a coverage of storm sewer basins and sub-basins. By overlaying pollutant loadings with the sewer sub-basin layer, aggregated pollutant loadings for major sewer outfalls were calculated. Based on the loading information, critical areas of excessive pollutant loadings were located and the effectiveness of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to control pollutant loadings were evaluated.

Flood inundation analysis system using GIS has been developed to simulate inundation in airport drainage areas. The model developed in this study has been synthetically presented and constructed the preprocess for database construction and input data preparing through a graphic user interface, GUI system and the postprocess processing graphically output resulted in mainprocess analysis model linked GIS(ArcView/Avenue). The mainprocess analysis model was simulated in real phenomenon caused by inflow of storm sewer system by simulation flooding due to backwater effect and surcharged flow in storm sewer system by simulating interaction coupling the overland flow analysis model and storm sewer system analysis model. In the future, the flood inundation analysis system developed in this study will be a great contribution to systematic decision-making for establishing the flood-mitigation management and facilities improvement plan to flooding damage in airport.

Recently the natural damage associated with flood disaster has been dramatically increased. Especially, inundation in the urban area causes serious damage to people and assets because of the concentration of infrastructure and population growth. The purpose of this study is to develop a new urban inundation model combining a storm sewer system model and a 2D overland-flow model for the estimation inundation depth In urban area caused by the surcharge of storm sewers. The movement of water in the studied urban watershed is characterized by two components, namely, the storm sewer flow component and the surcharge-induced inundation component. The model was applied to Goonja and Jangan catchments. Inundated depths were presented to demonstrate model simulation results. The simulation results can help the authority decide preventing flood damages by redesigning and enlarging the capacities of storm sewer systems in the inundation-prone areas. The model can also be applied to make the potential inundation area map and establish flood-mitigation measures as a part of the decision support system for flood control authority.
