As construction technology advances, most of civil engineering structures are becoming larger and taller. Therefore, high strength concrete is necessary for them. For high strength concrete, it needs a large amount of unit cement content and low water-cement ratio inevitably, so that a large amount of heat occurs in concrete. The thermal cracks make the durability and quality of concrete structures become worse, result from temperature rise and thermal stress due to heat of hydration. In this study, the proposal of using ground granulated blast furnace slag, fly ash and chemical admixtures was investigated to decrease the temperature rise of concrete.

The crack of concrete induced by the heat of hydration is a serious problem, particularly in concrete structures such as mat-slab of nuclear reactor buildings, dams or large footings, foundations of high rise buildings, etc.. As a result of the temperature rise and restriction condition of foundation, the thermal stress which may induce the cracks can occur. Therefore the various techniques of the thermal stress control in massive concrete have been widely used. One of them is prediction of the thermal stress, besides low-heat cement which mitigates the temperature rise, pre-cooling which lowers the initial temperature of fresh concrete with ice flake, pipe cooling which cools the temperature of concrete with flowing water, design change which considers steel bar reinforcement, operation control and so on. The Aim of this paper is to verify the effect of low heat blended cement in reducing thermal stress in slab type's mass concrete such as container harbor structures.

As a rule, in case of CFT for high-rise building, high strength concrete is required since it should have high fluidity, segregation resistance and large proportion of cement per unit considering the filling beneath the diaphragm. However, regarding the low-rise building under 20 stories, it is somewhat difficult to use high strength concrete. This is a fundamental study to develop a concrete with normal strength and high fluidity for CFT of low-rise building, whose Purposes are in speculating several kinds of changes in concrete's characteristics through various experiments and offering basic documents for practicalization in site and production through mock-up test.

The mold transformer has anti-burnt and possibility of small size contrary to oil-immersed transformer. The mold transformer has generally cooling duct between low voltage coil and high voltage coil and also made by one body molding for small size and low loss. In this paper, the temperature distribution of designed 50kVA pole mold transformer for power distribution is investigated by FEM program. The designed transformer is also manufactured and temperature rise test is carried out.

Allowable stress design method have been most widely used in steel structure in Korea. Recently, not only high-rise buildings but also medium or low-rise buildings were designed as steel structure. Most of low-rise steel buildings are designed as ordinary moment resisting frames(MRF). But MRFs don't have any lateral force resisting devices such as bracing in braced frames. This study focuses mainly on nonlinear seismic response analyses of small scale steel frames which will be used later as specimens for the evaluation of MRF's seismic performances. The main parameters of analyses are arrangement of column axis, $P-{\Delta}$ effect, acceleration factor etc. The object of this paper is to estimate the seismic performances of MRFs, which are mostly designed in Korea, through the results of response analyses.

The crack of concrete induced by the heat of hydration is s serious problem, particularly in concrete structures such as bridge piers. thick walls, box type walls, mat-slab of nuclear reactor building, dams of foundations of high rise buildings, etc. As a result of the temperature rise and restriction condition of foundation, the thermal stress which way induce the cracks can occur. Therefore the various techniques of the thermal stress control in massive concrete have been widely used. One of them is prediction of the thermal stress, besides low-heat cement which mitigates the temperature rise, design change which consider steel bar reinforcement, operation control and so on. In this study, firstly it introduce the thermal cracks control technique by employing low-heat cement concrete, thermal stress analysis, Secondly it shows the application of the cracks control technique like the bottom of No.15,16 Underground LNG Tank in Inchon.

Since cryogens are stored at very low temperatures, the cryogenic storage systems are quite sensitive to heat leaks. Even though the vessel operated under sealed condition with vacuum insulation and reflective coatings are used, the heat leakage into the vessel is still unavoidable. Therefore, this paper concerns with numerical study of self-pressurization used to analysis the optimum design with the variation volume fraction, effect of heat flux and storage pressure of liquid nitrogen. The result shows that as the volume fraction increases, the pressure rise reduces and the relatively at atmosphere pressure is better than the higher one. In addition, higher heat flux leads the pressure rise increases faster than low one. The additional of heat pipe system to reduce the pressure rise rate also has been done. By this comparison, the optimum design for storage umbilical cord blood can be selected.

This paper presents the analysis of wind speeds data measured on top of three neighboring high-rise buildings close to a beach in Xiamen city, China, during Typhoon "Usagi" 2013. Wind tunnel simulation was carried out to validate the field measurement results. Turbulence intensity, turbulence integral scale, power spectrum and cross correlation of recorded wind speed were studied in details. The low frequency trend component of the typhoon speed was also discussed. The field measurement results show turbulence intensity has strong dependence to the wind speed, upwind terrain and even the relative location to the Typhoon center. The low frequency fluctuation could severely affect the characteristics of wind. Cross correlation of the measured wind speeds on different buildings also showed some dependence on the upwind terrain roughness. After typhoon made landfall, the spatial correlation of wind speeds became weak with the coherence attenuating quickly in frequency domain.
