  • To analyze changes in the water-balance before and after using decentralized rainwater management facilities, this study carried out hydrologic modeling based on data including roof planting, rainwater use, infiltration and detention facilities applied to the sites. The results of the analysis are as follows: First, the total runoff quantity after facility installation was about 24% less than before. In particular, it showed that the surface runoff declined significantly. Second, the analysis of the effects of different decentralized rainwater management facilities revealed that the rooftop planting contributed to about a 3.5 times increase in actual evaporation than before. Third, the analysis of the effect of decentralized management facilities by different rainfall events showed that it turned to have about a 30% decreasing effect after facility installation for a monthly rainfall over 500mm or so and about 50% declining effect for a monthly rainfall about 200mm. As discussed above, the study confirmed that it is important to implement decentralized rainwater management facilities to improve inevitable changes in water-balance arising from development as it would be a significant alternative for sustainable urban development.

  • 물 순환이란 물이 지표면으로부터 증발하거나 바다로부터 증발하여 습한 공기가 기단을 형성한 후 적합한 조건이 형성되면 강수를 초래하는 과정이라고 볼 수 있다. 여기서 강수는 여러 경로 즉, 증발산, 지표흐름, 침투, 침루 등을 통해 다시 순환과정을 거친다. 최근 도시화로 인한 불투수면적의 증가로 기후변화, 홍수지체시간 감소, 첨두 및 유출총량의 증가, 침투능 및 증발산량의 감소 등 자연하천의 유출특성과는 다른 유출특성이 나타나며, 물 순환 체계가 왜곡되어 지하수위는 낮아지고, 하천의 유량은 감소되는 등 하천의 정상적인 기능이 저하되고 있다. 이에 우리나라에서는 환경부 및 국토교통부 등 정부기관과 지방자치단체에서 법과 조례를 제정하여 저영향개발기법 (LID, Low Impact Development)을 적용하도록 권고하고 있으며 신도시 개발사업 시 왜곡된 도시의 물 순환체계를 개선하기 위하여 저영향개발기법을 적용하고 있다. 저영향개발 기법의 정량적인 효과를 검증하기 위해서는 미환경청 (U.S. EPA., United States Environmental Protection Agency)에서 개발한 SWMM모델을 이용하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 도시화로 인해 왜곡된 물순환체계 개선을 위하여 다양하게 설계된 저영향개발기법의 정량적인 효율을 SWMM 모델을 통해 산정하고, 장기적인 측면에서 물순환 회복에 적합한 저영향개발기법의 배치 최적화를 제안하고자 한다.

  • 도시유역에서의 장기간에 대한 물순환 해석 기술은 도시하천의 복원 및 건천화 방지 사업의 점증적인 요구에 따라 필수적으로 확보하여야 하는 기술이지만, 관련 연구와 실무에서의 이해도는 미진하다. 따라서, 사업의 계획과 실무 설계를 위하여 도시유역의 물순환에 대한 이해와 기술을 지원할 수 있는 체계적인 지침이 필요하다. 외국의 사례를 살펴보면 일본의 경우 1995년 건설성의 주요 정책으로 "도시에서 적정한 물순환계 재생에의 노력"을 추진하였으며, "도시의 물순환 재생 구상 책정 매뉴얼"을 작성하여 사례 연구로 6개 유역을 대상으로 검토하였고, 2000년에는 "도시유역 물순환계의 정량화 방안"을 우수저류침투기술협회에서 주관하여 물순환계 재생구상 또는 물순환계 마스터플랜을 수립함에 있어서 필요로 하는 물순환계의 해석적인 평가방법의 해설서를 발간하였다. 호주의 경우는 1999년부터 WSUD(Water Sensitive Urban Design)란 개념을 도입하여, 정부 및 각 지방별로 프로그램을 진행하고 있으며, 지침서와 기술지도서를 작성하여 교육을 하고 실무에 활용하고 있고, 사례 연구와 학술회의를 통하여 기술 교류를 활발히 하고 있다. 자연적인 요소와 인공적인 요소가 복잡하게 조합되어있는 도시지역의 물순환의 상태를 파악하기 위해서는 유역의 자연특성과 사회특성 등에 관한 기초 자료의 수집이 선행되어야 하며, 다양한 관측결과를 기초로 물 순환계의 구조, 인과관계를 알기 위해, 또 물순환계 구성요소의 일부가 변화한 경우 다른 부분에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 평가하기 위해서는 모델링이 필요하다. 또한 이 같은 해석 모형을 이용하여 여러 가지 물순환 개선 정책의 효과를 평가하고 그 결과를 시각적으로 나타내는 것이 가능하다면 정책의 입안에 관계하는 사람들에 있어 공통의 의사결정 지원 도구가 될 것이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 도시유역의 물순환 해석을 위한 일련의 과정, 즉 자료의 조사 및 취득에서부터 물순환 해석 모형을 이용한 정량적 현황파악, 물순환 개선 기법 및 평가를 수행함에 있어 주요 착안점 및 실무에서의 기술적 가이드를 제공하고자 하였으며, 보다 세밀한 도시유역의 물순환 해석을 위하여 우리나라와 일본에서 적용이 활발한 물리적 기반의 분포형 모형(WEP, SHER, SWMM)의 적용사례를 통하여 국내 도시하천의 물순환 해석에 활용함에 있어서의 실질적인 적용절차 등을 제시하고자 하였다.

  • Precast concrete structure has many advantages, but the assembled seam will affect potentially the overall seismic performance of structure. Based on the sidewall joint located in the bottom of assembled monolithic subway station, the main objectives of this study are, on one hand to present an experimental campaign on the seismic behavior of precast sidewall joint (PWJ) and cast-in-place sidewall joint (CWJ) subjected to low-cycle repeated loading, and on the other hand to explore the effect of shape and position of assembled seam on load carrying capacity and crack width of precast sidewall joint. Two full-scale specimens were designed and tested. The important index of failure pattern, loading carrying capacity, deformation performance and crack width were evaluated and compared. Based on the test results, a series of different height and variably-shape of assembled seam of precast sidewall joint were considered. The test and numerical investigations indicate that, (1) the carrying capacity and deformation capacity of precast sidewall and cast-in-place sidewall were very similar, but the crack failure pattern, bending deformation and shearing deformation in the plastic hinge zone were different obviously; (2) the influence of the assembled seam should be considered when precast underground structures located in the aquifer water-bearing stratum; (3) the optimal assembled seam shape and position can be suggested for the design of precast underground concrete structures according to the analysis results.

  • This article involves architecting prototype-fuzzy expert system for designing the nominal cover thickness by means of fuzzy inference for quantitatively representing the environment affecting factor to reinforced concrete in chloride-induced corrosion environment. In this work, nominal cover thickness to reinforcement in concrete was determined by the sum of minimum cover thickness and tolerance to that defined from skill level, constructability and the significance of member. Several variables defining the quality of concrete and environment affecting factor (EAF) including relative humidity, temperature, cyclic wet and dry, and the distance from coast were treated as fuzzy variables. To qualify EAF the environment conditions of cycle degree of wet-dry, relative humidity, distance from coast and temperature were used as input variables. To determine the nominal cover thickness a qualified EAF, concrete grade, and water-cement ratio were used. The membership functions of each fuzzy variable were generated from the engineering knowledge and intuition based on some references as well as some international codes of practice.

  • In this article, we look at the application of BIM (Building Information Modeling) in sustainable infrastructures. In response to global warming, energy shortages, and environmental degradation, people are trying to build eco-friendly, low-carbon cities and promote eco-friendly homes. A "green" building is the entire life cycle of a building that includes maximizing the conservation of resources (energy, water, land, and materials), protecting the environment, reducing pollution, providing people with healthy, comfortable, and efficient use of space, and establishing harmony between nature and architecture. In the field of ecological and sustainable buildings, BIM modeling can be integrated into buildings with analog energy, air flow analysis, and solar building ecosystems. Using BIM technologies, you can reduce the amount of waste and improve the quality of construction. These technologies create "visualization" of digital building models through multidimensional digital design solutions that provide" modeling and analysis "of Scientific Collaboration Platforms for designers, architects, utility engineers, developers, and even end users. Moreover, BIM helps them use three-dimensional digital models in project design and construction and operational management.

  • The hydrological cycle system in the city is generally characterized by quick runoff, bad infiltration, low evaporation rate, and so on. It is caused by sealing greens up with pavements. Also, there are lots of contradictory environmental problems, such as inundation, the lack of underground water and dryness in the city, caused by the urban drainage system which is mostly focused on the quick draining off rainfall. In addition, the technique joining rain and sewage, which has more dangers of inundation, occupies 66% between two Korean drainage systems which consist of joining and dividing system. There has been some need to convert the present drainage system into the environmentally friendly hydrological cycle system. This is a theoretical study to examine some foreign cases and suggested applicable methods in our country, focusing on the environmentalyl friendly system of rainfall drainage. The precipitation treatment system can be made up of some possible phases choosing from premanagement, utilization, infiltration, retention, and inducement phases. Therefore, this study mostly focused on infiltration, retention, and inducement phases. It is necessary to suggest the multifunctional utilization of outdoor spaces, especially applying in new constructing and re-constructing residential estates.

  • Apparent changes in the natural hydrologic cycle causing more frequent floods in urban areas and surface water quality impairment have led stormwater management solutions towards the use of green and sustainable practices that aims to replicate pre-urbanization hydrology. Among the widely documented applications are infiltration techniques that temporarily store rainfall runoff while promoting evapotranspiration, groundwater recharge through infiltration, and diffuse pollutant reduction. In this study, a laboratory-scale infiltration device was built to be able to observe and determine the factors affecting flow variations and corresponding solids removal through a series of experiments employing semi-synthetic stormwater runoff. Results reveal that runoff and solids reduction is greatly influenced by the infiltration capability of the underlying soil which is also affected by rainfall intensity and the available depth for water storage. For gravel-filled structures, a depth of at least 1 m and subsoil infiltration rates of not more than 200 mm/h are suggested for optimum volume reduction and pollutant removal. Moreover, it was found that the length of the structure is more critical than the depth for applications in low infiltration soils. These findings provide a contribution to existing guidelines and current understanding in design and applicability of infiltration systems.

  • Water pollution problems of urban rivers due to the urbanization and industrialization have been the subject of public attention. In particular, considering the fact that the characteristics of water cycle of each basin change dramatically through the development of new towns, a large number of concerns about future water quality have been raised. However, reasonable measures to predict future water quality quantitatively have not been presented by this moment. In this study, by the linkage of annual unit load generation based on long-term monitoring results of the ministry of environment (MOE) to a semi-distributed rainfall runoff model, SWMM (Storm Water Management Model), we proposed a new methodology to estimate future water quality macroscopically and testified it to verify its applicability for the estimation of future water quality of a small watershed at G new town. As a result of the estimation using Y-EMC (Yearly based Event Mean Concentration), future water quality were simulated as BOD 18.7, T-N 16.1 and T-P 0.85 mg/L respectively which could not achieve the grade III of domestic river life guidance and these criteria could be satisfied by the reduction of domestic wastewater discharge load by over 80%. The results of this study are shown to be utilized for one of basic tools to estimate and manage water quality of urban rivers in the course of new town developments.
