  • The bearing capacity of open-ended piles is affected by the degree of soil plugging, which is quantified by the IFR. There is not at present a design criterion for open-ended piles that explicitly considers the effect of IFR on pile load capacity In order to investigate this effect, model pile load tests using a calibration chamber were conducted on instrumented open-ended piles. The results of these tests show that the IFR increases with increasing relative density and increasing horizontal stress of soils. The unit base and shaft resistances decrease with increasing IFR. Based on the results of the model pile tests, new empirical relations for base load capacity and shaft load capacity of open-ended piles are proposed. In order to check the accuracy of predictions made with the proposed equations, the equations were applied to the full-scale pile load test preformed in this study, Based on the comparisons with the pile load test results, the proposed equations appear to produce satisfactory predictions.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the housing affordability of multi-family dwelling in Seoul and to systemize the housing expenditure patterns and housing affordability according to household and housing characteristics. Housing expenditures are basically composed of the payments of four major items. including utilities. home alteration and interior furnishing. home mortgage debt. and monthly rent. Housing affordability index as operationally defined in this study is Housing Expenditure-to-Income Ratio (HEIR). The ratios were computed for each of the four housing expenditure items. Data for 465 multi-family dwellers were gathered from the structured questionnaire. The results showed the differences between household and housing characteristics on housing expenditure levels and HEIR. In addition. this differences had influence on future housing choice behavior. The analysis on the variables of housing choice behavior showed the result that user cost considering capital gains were less important. comparing those of early 1990's.

  • One of main issues of the FRP-concrete composite member is shear connection between FRP and concrete in order to secure composite behavior of FRP and concrete. To solve this problem, perfobond rib FRP shear connector is introduced for the mechanical shear connection. In this study, experimental study was carried out on the perfobond rib FRP shear connectors in order to develop the effective details of perfobond rib FRP shear connectors. Pull-out test specimens were manufactured with FRP plate with holes embedded in concrete block. Main parameters considered in this study were diameter of holes, ratio of spacing between the centres of holes to the diameter of holes, and thickness of FRP plates. Test results are discussed according to above parameters compared with other empirical expressions for steel perfobond rib connector.

  • The purposes of this study are to investigate the determinants of household demand for credit and to test the effects of credit outstandings and credit repayments on consumption expenditures. To investigate the relationship between credit use and consumption expenditures, a theoretical consumption expenditure model including credit outstandings and credit repayments is developed. With 1991 Report of National Survey of Family Income and Expenditure, two empirical models are tested using OLS. The results show that household demand for credit is determined by household income, debt burden, household size, age and squared age of household head and ratio of home ownership. It is also found that credit outstandings affect consumption expenditures positively while credit repayments affect consumption expenditures negatively.

  • In case of Zero-Inflated Poisson model with a change-point, likelihood ratio test statistic was used for testing hypothesis for a change-point. A change-point and several interesting parameters were estimated by using the method of moments and maximum likelihood. In order to compare the estimators, empirical mean-square-error was used. Real data for the Zero-Inflated Poisson model with a change-point and Poisson model without a change-point were examined.

  • In this thesis, the relationship between the load carrying capacity and the transformed impact factor of the highway bridges were studied. The bridges are classified according to superstructures type. The result of the comparison between the load carrying capacity and the transformed impact factor, if the load capacity ratio of 0.57, the transformed impact factor was less in order of RC T-beam bridge, RC slab bridge, PC beam bridge, I-beam bridge. By the regression analysis on these results, the empirical formulae to predict the the load carrying capacity of bridge were suggested.

  • In this research, we compare the efficiency of two test procedures proposed by Prentice and Gloeckler (1978) and Park and Hong (2009) for grouped data with possible right censored observations. Both test statistics were derived using the likelihood ratio principle, but under different semi-parametric models. We review the two statistics with asymptotic normality and consider obtaining empirical powers through a simulation study. The simulation study considers two types of models the location translation model and the scale model. We discuss some interesting features related to the grouped data and obtain null distribution functions with a re-sampling method. Finally we indicate topics for future research.

  • This article deals with the problem of estimation of the population mean in presence of multi-auxiliary information in two occasion rotation sampling. A multivariate exponential ratio type estimator has been proposed to estimate population mean at current (second) occasion using information on p-additional auxiliary variates which are positively correlated to study variates. The theoretical properties of the proposed estimator are investigated along with the discussion of optimum replacement strategies. The worthiness of proposed estimator has been justified by comparing it to well-known recent estimators that exist in the literature of rotation sampling. Theoretical results are justified through empirical investigations and a detailed study has been done by taking different choices of the correlation coefficients. A simulation study has been conducted to show the practicability of the proposed estimator.

  • This paper presents some chain ratio-type estimators for estimating finite population variance using two auxiliary variables in two phase sampling set up. The expressions for biases and mean squared errors of the suggested c1asses of estimators are given. Asymptotic optimum estimators(AOE's) in each class are identified with their approximate mean squared error formulae. The theoretical and empirical properties of the suggested classes of estimators are investigated. In the simulation study, we took a real dataset related to pulmonary disease available on the CD with the book by Rosner, (2005).

  • This thesis investigates relationship between Stock-to-Flow price and housing starts in Seoul metropolitan form 2008 year to 2019 year. The paper tests the relationship through two time-series models such as a vector error correction model and Dynamic Panel regression model. The model results show evidence of positive correlation between Stock-to-Flow price and housing starts in the long run. By transforming the regional data into a panel data set and running a fixed effects model, we test the explanatory power of PBR on housing starts. The result of VECM confirms that one unit uprising PBR raises up apartment construction by 7.4%. This result supports that PBR is a major factor in choosing a start of housing construct. Base on the result of empirical model, We also suggest that the market self-regulation function of housing providers is operating in the entire metropolitan area market.
