The effect of tip gap height on heat/mass transfer characteristics on the floor of cavity squealer tip has been investigated in a turbine cascade for power generation by employing the naphthalene sublimation technique. The squealer rim height is chosen to be an optimal one of $h_{st}/c$ = 5.51% for the tip gap height-to-chord ratios of h/c = 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0%. The results show that heat transfer on the cavity floor is strongly dependent upon the behavior of the cavity flow falling down onto the floor. For lower h/c, the floor heat transfer is influenced by the tip leakage flow falling down along the inner face of the suction-side squealer, whereas the floor heat transfer for higher h/c is augmented mainly due to the impingement of leakage flow on the floor near the leading edge. Compared to the plane tip surface heat transfer, the cavity floor heat transfer is less influenced by h/c. For h/c = 1.0%, the average thermal load is as low as a half of the plane tip surface one, and the difference in the thermal load between the two cases tends to decrease with increasing h/c.

Recently, column-supported wall structural system is frequently adopted in mixed-use high-rise buildings. Due to the sudden change of stiffness at the transfer floor proper load transfer and avoiding stress concentration are very important in column-supported wall structural system. It is revealed by many investigators that 2-dimensional analysis is not reliable and inappropriate selection of element for modeling may lead to erroneous result for gravitational loading. In this study, structural behavior of column-supported wall structure at transfer floor subject to lateral loading is compared by changing modeling methods.

Wall/floor intersection is important parts of a building envelope system. These intersections can be sources of thermal bridging effects and/or moisture condensation problems. This paper provides a detailed analysis of the thermal performance of wall/floor intersection. In particular, two-dimensional steady-state and transient solutions of the heat conduction within the wall/floor joint are presented. Various insulation configurations are considered to determine the magnitude of heat transfer increase due to wall/floor joint construction.

The prediction of time-dependent column shortening is essential for tall buildings considering both strength and serviceability aspects. The Column shortening of tall buildings with transfer floor should be calculated considering the long-term deflection of transfer girder. In this study, both the column shortening and the deflection of transfer girder of 45-story tall concrete building are predicted. The column shortening considering deflection of transfer girder are compared with the actual column shortening by field measurement.

A study was conducted to significantly increase the heat transfer area by simultaneously burying the excel pipe in the floor and wall of a container house, thereby greatly reducing the initial heating time. In addition, a small hot water boiler suitable for the heating load of a small container house with a maximum area of 6 m² was studied. A wall-mounted hot water boiler was developed as a result of the study. When a hot water boiler is installed outdoors for heating, heat radiation energy is lost in winter from the hot water boiler and hot water pipe due to the low temperature. We propose an approach through which the energy loss was greatly reduced and the temperature of hot water increased in proportion to the operating time. Moreover, as the mass flow rate of the hot water flowing inside the excel pipe increased, the temperature of the hot water decreased. The temperature of the wall and floor surfaces of the container house increased in proportion to the increase in the mass flow rate of hot water flowing inside the excel tube. Natural convection heat transfer was realized from the wall and floor surfaces of the container house, and the heat transfer area was increased by a factor of 3 with respect to heat transfer area limited to the floor by the existing hot water panel. As a result, the initial temperature increase rate was much higher because of the larger heat transfer area.

In multi-story buildings, heavy-weight floor impact noise propagates through multiple layers. In order to evaluate the influence of structural vibration and propagation, the actual twelve-story building was excited by an impact ball. Sound and vibration responses of each floor was measured using accelerometers and a microphone. Vibration characteristics and its transfer paths were different depending on the excitation floor locations due to differences in the structural characteristics. From the measurement result, transfer characteristics were quantified by statistical energy analysis. It was confirmed that the heavy-weight floor impact noise influence not only adjacent floor. The impact noise transferred and affected multiple layers.

Recently, the number of super high-rise building projects have been increased after recovering from international financial crisis. In super high-rise building project, vertical lifting is critical to overall project productivity, due to its limited lifting equipments. Also for projects which buildings' height are higher than 400m, transfer operation in lifting is inevitable because of lifts' maximum lifting height. In transfer operation, setting a transfer floor is essential for saving lifting time of resources. In this research, using discrete event simulation modeling with AnyLogic 7.0 software and metaheuristic optimization with OptQuest software, the method of optimizing a transfer floor for workers during the morning peak time is proposed. Comparing to the result of the case which transfer floor is designated to the middle floor, setting optimized transfer floor significantly decrease the total lifting time of workers. By using proposed simulation and optimization tool, saving budget and time through increasing available working hour is expected.

The source transfer receiver model ('Source $\times$ Transfer = Response' model) which is widely used by NVH development process of vehicle/transport/machinery to analyze effectively and manage efficiently the structural dynamic behavior is also applicable to construction structure. If the evaluation assessment of the vibration level does not meet the target level, there are two methods, one is source treatment or replacement and the other is the reduction treatment on the transfer structure. In case of source treatment, it is done by source supplier and so, the latter is more practical method to reduce the vibration level. In this study, in order to get the accurate Transfer FE model(floor structure FE model), Experimental modal analysis of part of floor structure and FEM modal analysis of full floor structure are performed, then updating of FE model is performed after correlation analysis between these two results and finally, the modal model and FRF are compared between FE and Experimental results.

The floor material is known as the most influential emission source of the residential building, because most floor material is made of wood compound and adhesive like a plywood flooring. Moreover, floor heating system keeps the inside temperature of the material high. As the emission of hazardous chemical compound from the construction material is influenced by many factors, it is necessary to analyze the emission characteristics of the floor material to improve IAQ. In this study, numerical analysis is performed to investigate the emission characteristics of the floor material affected by several factors such as temperature, air exchange rate, initial concentration, and internal diffusion coefficient. A simulation program is also written based on the mass transfer theory. The simulation results show that there is some level of difference on the TVOC concentration when each of the factors is variable.

Due to the location of vibration sensitive equipment on the floor, it is necessary for its vibration performance to be maintained within stringent limits, resulting in a design of higher mass and stiffness than would be usual for a floor of this type. Modal testing is conducted on the floor to obtain their dynamic characteristics. A considerable level of vibration transmission is observed by comparing the ratio of simulated transfer and point mobility FRFs of the floor.
