  • The aim of this study is to develop a Named Entity Recognition (NER) model to automatically identify construction-related organizations from news articles. This study collected news articles using web crawling technique and construction-related organizations were labeled within a total of 1,000 news articles. The Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) model was used to recognize clients, constructors, consultants, engineers, and others. As a pilot experiment of this study, the best average F1 score of NER was 0.692. The result of this study is expected to contribute to the establishment of international business strategies by collecting timely information and analyzing it automatically.

  • Nuclear power plant (NPP) constructions are large scale projects that are executed for several years, and schedule control utilizing various schedules is a critically important factor. Recently Korea independently developed the Advanced Power Reactor (APR) 1400 and is building nuclear facilities applying this new reactor type. The construction of Shin-Kori NPP (SKN) Unit 3, which adopted the APR1400, was completed and commercial operation has begun, while, SKN 4, Shin-Hanul NPP (SHN) Units 1&2, and SKN 5&6 are currently under construction. Prior to the development of the APR1400, Korea built 24 reactors and accumulated the schedule data of various reactor types which provided the foundation for schedule reduction to be possible. However, as there is no schedule development and review system established based on the standard schedule data (standard activities, durations, etc.) by reactor type, the process for developing the schedule for new builds is low in efficiency consuming much time and manpower. Also all construction data has been accumulated based on schedule activities. But because the connectivity of activities between projects is low, it is difficult to utilize such accumulated data (causes for schedule delay, causes for design changes, etc.) in new build projects. Due to such reasons, issues continue to arise in the process of developing standard schedule activities and a standard schedule for nuclear power plant construction. In order to develop a standard schedule for NPP construction, i) the development of an NPP standard schedule activity list, ii) development of the connection logic of NPP standard schedule activities, iii) development of NPP standard schedule activity resources and duration, and iv) integration of schedule data need to be performed. In this paper, an analysis was made on the coherence of schedule activity descriptions of existing NPPs by applying the probabilistic methodology on activities with low connectivity due to the utilization of the numbering system of four APR1400 reactors (SHN 1&2 and SKN 3&4).This study also describes the method for developing a standard schedule activity list and connectivity measures by extracting same and/or similar schedule activities.

  • 특수 플랜트 건설은 타 건설사업보다 체계적인 원가 및 공정관리가 요구되지만 이를 위하 반드시 필요한 현장 생산성을 구체적으로 분석한 연구는 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내에서 건설중인 특수 플랜트 현장의 철근콘크리트공종을 형틀, 철근, 콘크리트로 나누어 생산성을 측정하고 생산성에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하였다. 생산성 측정결과 형틀공종 $0.54(m^2/man{\cdot}time)$, 철근공종 $0.06(ton/man{\cdot}day)$, 콘크리트공종 $1.98(m^3/man{\cdot}time)$로 나타났다. 영향요인으로는 형틀공종은 요일과 야간적업 유무, 철근공종은 야간잡업 유무, 콘크리트공종은 야간작업 유무와 콘크리트 물량이 통계적으로 유의게 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다.

  • 본 논문에서는 면진시스템이 원전에 적용될 경우 원전구조물의 생애주기 성능에 미치는 영향을 소개한다. 최근 내진설계와 더불어 강진발생 예상 지역에 적용을 목적으로 개발되는 면진시스템은 구조물을 장주기화하여 응답가속도를 줄이고 상대변위를 늘려줌으로써 구조물의 안전성을 증진시키는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서, 구조물의 안전성이 중요시되는 원전구조물에 면진시스템을 적용하기 위한 연구가 국내에서 진행 중에 있다. 본 연구에서는 원전구조물의 생애주기 성능분석에 있어서 특징을 분석하고, 면진시스템이 적용될 경우 원전구조물의 생애주기성능에 있어서 미치는 영향을 평가함으로써, 도출된 결과를 면진시스템 적용의 정량적인 타당성 평가에 활용할 수 있다.

  • A paradigm shift in the government's energy policy was reflected in its declaration of early closure of old nuclear plants as well as cancellation of plans for the construction of new plants. To this end, unit 1 of Kori Nuclear Power Plant was permanently shut down and is set for decommission. Based on these changes, the off-site transport of spent fuels from nuclear power plants has become a critical issue. The purpose of this study is to develop an optimized method for transportation of spent fuels from Kori Nuclear Power Plant's units 1, 2, 3, and 4 to an assumed interim storage facility by simulating the scenarios using the Flexsim software, which is widely used in logistics and manufacturing applications. The results of the simulation suggest that the optimized transport methods may contribute to the development of delivery schedule of spent fuels in the near future. Furthermore, these methods can be applied to decommissioning plan of nuclear power plants.

  • Because of the congestion problems, the high-strength reinforcements are expected to be used in nuclear power plant structures in the near future. According to ACI 349-13, lap splices of high-strength(550MPa) bars can be used but it is expected that lap splice length of reinforcement will be increased significantly. The increased lap splice length will be lead to increase in construction cost & period and to problems of other bar congestions. Therefore, this study will analyze the economic feasibility on mechanical splice of high-strength reinforcement used nuclear power plant structures instead of lap splice.

  • If the mechanical development be applied to the Nuclear Power Plant Structures instead of the standard hook development, the problem of overcrowding re-bars in the anchorage zone can be solved and the construction quality of the concrete work will be improved. But there are some problems in applying it to the NPP structures because of the restriction on the re-bar yield strength and diameter. After the performance evaluation test for the mechanical development, we can develop the new design equation of the mechanical development length in order to solve the limitation and apply it to NPP structures.

  • 한수원 중앙연구원은 2007년부터 정부과제의 하나로 열출력 4361MWt GEN.III+ 원전인 APR+를 개발하고 있다. APR1400에 비해 보다 개선된 안전성과 경제성을 갖는 원전을 개발하기 위해 국내외 건설 중인 원전설계와 해외 개발 중인 ALWR(Advanced Light Water Reactor)의 설계내용 및 후쿠시마 원전사고로부터 도출된 개선사항을 반영하여 한국 실정에도 맞고, 해외 수출형 원전에도 부합되는 신개념원전 설계를 진행하고 있다. 기술개발 2단계인 표준상세설계에서 2회의 경제성 평가가 수행되었다. 2단계 표준상세설계 2차 경제성 평가결과 APR+ N-th호기는 국내석탄화력 1000MWe급 대비 24.6% 경쟁력우위와 해외원전 대비 충분한 경쟁력을 갖는 것으로 평가되었다.

  • When newcomer countries consider a nuclear power programme, it is recognized that the most important organizations are the Nuclear Energy Programme Implementing Organization (NEPIO), the regulator, and an operating organization. Concerning the number of construction delays these days, one of the essential organizations is an Authorized Inspection Agency (AIA). According to World Nuclear Industry Status Report, all of the reactors under construction in eight out of the thirteen countries have experienced delays. Globally, the Flamanville 3 project and Sanmen Unit 1 are 6.5 years and 5 years late respectively. One of the major reasons of delay is due to inappropriate manufacturing and inspection on safety class components. The recommendations are made to develop such an organization: (i) find existing inspection organizations in relevant industries, (ii) contract with expatriates who have experience on nuclear inspection, (iii) develop a legislative framework to authorize the inspection organization with enforcement, (iv) include a contract clause in the BIS for developing the AIA, (v) hold training programmes from vendor country, (vi) during manufacturing and construction, domestic AIA shall be involved.
