Recently the exterior attaching reinforcement method is being often used by using FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer) as a method of strengthening concrete structure. this FRP exterior attaching reinforcement method has several advantages like high intensity, stiffness, good durability and easy installment comparing to its weight. but its structure is airtight covered by reinforcement material whose water permeability is low and water can't be discharged, thus it may provoke a damage to the structure after a long while. the main purposes of this study are to develop GFRP reinforcement material which can discharge the surface water properly and to measure its special functions. for this, we have changed the normal reinforcement material to water permeable structure and measured its water permeance modulus by an indoor test which shows the process of water permeance with the parameter of contained GFRP quantity. also tried to verify the measured value of the water permeance modulus in theory by analyzing the numbers on water permeance process. the test result showed that the biggest quantity of water, 0.5129 g/h $m^2$ was discharged when the fiber contained quantity reached at 75% and the tensile strength was also biggest by 476.6MPa at 75%, so it appeared that COSREM GP panel with 75% fiber contained quantity is the best in ventilation and structure.

The Grout injected precast pile is widely used in rapid-transit railway bridge recently. The existing portland cement of well used filling at injected precast method that with low strength and environmental pollution, unstable in which ground water contamination by cement flow out, ground relaxation by water down, decrease of horizontality resistance and durability and load transfer divide etc. In particular, as in rapid-transit railway bridge need to secure safety from different angle with vibration of high speed train, horizontal force when train stop and earthquake. Works of foundation construction consider to requirements of the times to coal yard green growth. Together, new green foundation method for possible economics and securing of reduce the term of works are material to developments. Therefore, we carried out study that it is using and development new concept environment - friendly filling include durability and earthquake resistance, for secure safety and minimize environment pollution. To achieve this, we carried out difference tests that new green fillings of underwater concrete, high liquidity, high viscosity, early stiffness as compared to existing portland cement fillings. As results, new green filling have outstanding application at precast pile method and micropile construction method with vertical bearing capacity, horizontal bearing capacity and many case. From now on we will be looking forward to development of new environment-friendly foundation method from various further studies.

An existing Steel pipe, Cast iron pipe and Concrete pipe is can not escaped from aging, specially Metal tube is causing many problems that the quality of water worse is concerned about many rust and mike efficient use of preservation of water. The use of Glassfiber Reinforced Plastic Pipe(GRP PIPE) should be one of the possible scheme to get over these problems. The GRP PIPE has an excellent resistance power and the life is lasting from 50 to 100 years roughly. It's to be useful as a result of high durability and a good construction work also it is a light weight therefore can be expected to short the time of construction and man power. In this research, to executed the small-scaled model test, in-situ model test using CLSM of in-situ soil and to evaluated the stress - strain of the pipe also try to estimated how useful is. From the model test in laboratory, the vertical and horizontal deformation of the GRP PIPE measured in six instance using 200mm and 300mm in diameters. The value of experimentation, theory, analysis got the same results of the test, but the vertical and horizontal deformation gauged in small and the earth pressure was almost zero using CLSM of in-situ soil..

In case of Korean housing complex, there became more mixed arrangement of buildings with different number of layers for a variety of urban skyline, recently. For example, around 33% of the construction sites of 'A' public corporation have gaps of more than 4 layers between high-rise buildings and low-rise ones in the same site, according to the survey. Generally, construction duration of the housing complex is estimated based on the layers of the highest building. Due to this baseline, whole construction duration could be extended so that the project cost could be increased. Therefore, framework duration of higher-rise buildings should be reduced to secure the feasibility of the project. On the other hands, these shortenings could adversely harm the feasibility in some cases because there are a wide range of combinations of the buildings with different number of layers in designing housing complex. Therefore, this study shows the results of analysis on effects of framework time shortening on the cost in housing complex project. Moreover, this could set the baseline of checking possibilities in condensing the construction duration of projects with buildings of different layers by supplying comprehensive database.

Recently, several researches on the development of new economical foundation types have been performed to support floating structures as many offshore structures have been constructed. This study focused on the evaluation of bearing capacity of group suction piles, which are connected by a concrete pile cap. The offshore floating structures are mainly subjected to horizontal loading, so the horizontal bearing capacities of the group suction piles were analyzed by performing 3-dimensional finite element analyses. The group suction piles are expected to behave as a rigid pile due to its shallow embedded depth. Therefore, the detailed soil modeling was necessary to simulate the bearing behavior of soils under low confining pressure. The modulus and the strength of soils were modelled to increase with effective confining pressure in soils. For the parametric study, the center-to-center spacing between piles was varied and two soil types of clay and sands were applied. The analyses results showed that the yielding load of the group pile increased with the increase of the pile spacing and the yielding load of the group piles with 5D spacing was about 3 times larger than that of the single pile with free rotation.
