Test results for a total of four types of complex waterproofing methods were analyzed. In the case of the A method, the stress generated by high-viscosity compounds adhering to the base test body during the behavior of the test body was transferred to the sheet surface layer. In the case of the B method and the C method, the properties of the waterproof sheet consisting of a non-hardened seal based and a non-hardened seal are well reflected and stress absorption in the non-hardened seal layer acts strongly, rapidly reducing stress transfer to the surface of the waterproof sheet. In the case of the D method, slip occurs due to repeated behavior, and the stress on the attachment surface is reduced, and the stress transfer to the surface is greatly reduced. As a result, four types of composite waterproofing methods resulted in changing the stress transfer mechanism caused by behavior on the concrete surface due to the physical properties of the internal constituent material of the waterproof sheet.

In shooting training, an impact point identification system that uses the impact wave of the bullet to check the impact point in the target plate has been recently used. Acoustic sensors used in these systems must be able to detect shock waves of high sound pressure levels and be both waterproof and dustproof for rainy weather and dusty environments, respectively. In this study, membranes with excellent waterproof, dustproof, and sound transmitting characteristics were selected through a characteristics test; a protection cap was installed to install the selected materials. After coupling the produced protection cap to the acoustic sensor housing, the sensitivity and phase characteristics of the acoustic sensor were checked. Through the waterproof and dustproof test, the performances of its sensitivity and phase characteristics were confirmed. Finally, the normal shockwave of a 5.56 mm diameter bullet was measured using a shockwave detection signal collecting plate equipped with a prototype of the acoustic sensor at a 100 m firing range.

Purpose: This study is aimed at developing of the flex resistance testing process at low temperature with the waterproof fabric to suit the military environment, and is designed to fit for the purpose of the waterproof materials in order to optimize the test method by finding out matters to improve from existing the test method and through previous studies. Methods: The test method, which has been applied to flex resistance of existing water-repellent materials, was improved and consequently, differentiated test results could be obtained according to the test temperature, sample size, and flexing method. Results: The testing of the total of 8 samples revealed that performance of the military requirement could hardly be met just by presenting the materials or 2~3 layers when the quality criteria for high functional water repellent fabrics were applied. PTFE(Polytetrafluoroethylene) is preferred to PU(Polyurethane) to be used in the extremely low-temperature environment, but durability under the low-temperature environment may be varied depending on film thickness or laminating technique even if the materials of waterproof films are identical. Therefore, in addition to the material or texture, the test method capable of reflecting durability under the low-temperature environment shall be suggested, and the newly designed test method proposed in this study was shown to suggest differentiated quality criteria by the material. Conclusion: The water resistance measurement and the test method following flex resistance with expanded range of flex will enable the differentiable test of the samples according to the number of repetition. This study is meaningful in that it suggests a differentiable test method capable of establishing a basis of deciding suitable material when selecting military goods made of water repellent material by properly improving the test method.

In 2017, 100 aftershocks with a magnitude of 2.0~3.0 and 615 minor earthquakes in Pohang in Korea caused the collapse and destruction of aggregate, tile, glass, and other structural components of multi-family houses constructed as finishing materials for buildings, causing damage to vehicles and casualties. Based on this factor, seismic design standards were established for non-structural elements of buildings that were applied only to past structures. Therefore, this study reinterpreted various vibration response spectra transmitted to waterproof layers as well as the definition and concept of the waterproof layer demand response spectrum derived by developing various vibration response test evaluation devices through a new testing apparatus.

This study was conducted to evaluate and compare the waterproofness and water vapor transport properties of 30 waterproof and breathable textiles in the market. MVTR upright cup test with water, MVTR inverted cup test with potassium acetate, and sweating hot plate test method were used for measuring the breathability of fabric samples. The waterproofness of all fabric samples and evaporative resistance of garment ensembles made with 5 selected waterproof and breathable textiles out of 30 samples were tested. The results of this study were as follows. The base fabrics of the most samples were basic weave structure with either polyester or nylon fiber. The waterproofness was over $5000mmH_2O$ for all the samples except densely woven fabrics. The evaporative resistance of garments that were made out of 5 fabric samples with a range of low to high breathability ranged $39.9{\sim}56.7m^2{\cdot}P{\cdot}W^{-1}$. The data of the water vapor transport properties of fabric samples varied with different test methods. Overall the bicomponent film fabrics showed better breathability and less standard deviation regardless of test methods. It is expected the breathability data without the information of test conditions used for marketing would confuse the consumers and the apparel manufacturers.

This study was performed to develop the embankment protection method that can reduce demage by prevention of embankment loss and collapse from overflow due to heavy rain and flood. For overflow test, model dam was prepared and embankment behaviors were monitored with the established piezometer and strain meter during overflow. As a result of overflow test for model dam, in case of embankment without waterproof mat, the lower end of embankment was collapsed within 40 seconds after beginning of overflow. On the other hand, in case of embankment with waterproof mat, embankment collapse didn't occurred during overflow. Accordingly, establishment of waterproof mat for embankment showed that be absolutely effective for the embankment protection during overflow in reservoir. Also, it showed that the minimum establishment range of waterproof mat to prevent embankment collapse in reservoir is from maximum storage level to the lower end of embankment.

This paper deals with a waterproof and mechanical feature of concrete using an inorganic self waterproof agent. The waterproof agents having been used in our country were a membrane agent, penetration agent and an organic waterproof agent. However, these agents have a lot of problems such as losing the effect of waterproof in the environment of lots of water, the difficulty of dispersion. For the clear of problems of these water -proof agents, we used the inorganic waterproof agent. This agent was made from inorganic fluosilicate. Generally, a waterproof agent has been used only for the waterproof effect. In this paper, however through the some tests of concrete using the inorganic self waterproof agent, we recognized that the concrete using the agent is more excellent in some peculiar properties than general concrete's properties. In this paper, we performed compressive strength, permeability, pore volume test, etc. As a result, the concrete of using the agent is more excellent in economy, waterproof, compressive strength.
