Permeable polymer concretes can be applied to roads, sidewalks, river embankment, drain pipes, conduits, retaining walls, yards, parking lots, plazas, interlocking blocks, etc. This study was to explore a possibility of using bottom ash as filler and recycled coarse aggregate of industrial by-products for permeable polymer concrete. The tests carried out at $20{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and $60{\pm}2%$ relative humidity. At 7 days of curing, unit weight, void ratio, compressive and flexural strength and coefficient of permeability ranged between $1,652{\sim}1,828kgf/m^{3},\;15{\sim}29+%,\;18.2{\sim}24.5\;MPa,\;6.4{\sim}8.4\;MPa\;and\;6.8{\times}10^{-2}{\sim}1.7{\times}10^{-1}\;cm/s$, respectively. It was concluded that the bottom ash and recycled coarse .aggregate can be used in the permeable polymer concrete.

Shallow foundations of various columns such as traffic signs, CCTVs, traffic lights, street lights, steel telephone poles and so on are made by cast-in-situ concrete method. However, typical cast-in-situ method has many problems because of the long duration of construction, occupation of sidewalks and low strength of the concrete after curing. In order to solve the problems, field load tests for the prefabricated DSF foundation made by combination of column and foundation was conducted to know load-deformation behavior by torsional tests.

The pedestrian space of the street is one of the most important public places in the city. Sidewalks are the paths that everyone travels, and the spaces in which everyone comes together. By Whatever means they travel, everyone is ultimately a pedestrian during their journey through the residential area. Every year, more than six thousand Koreans are victimized by traffic accidents, and a half of them are pedestrians. This study aims at improving the pedestrian environment in residential area, and thus making road a walkable, pedestrian-friendly space. The study reviews the problems in the pedestrian environment of residential area and proposes improvement strategies.

Observations were made on the infection rate of common internal parasites in dogs in Kwangju area from January to March, 1982. Dog's stools were collected from veterinary hospitals, houses, intensive dog-rearing places and sidewalks. On the basis of egg counting, the following results were obtained; 1. Of 464 fecal samples, 73.5% were appeared as positive. 2. Dogs from veterinary hospitals and intensive dog-rearing places have higher infection rates than others. 3. Of the parasites detected, Toxocara canis was the most commonly encountered (23.7%). 4. Ascarids, flukes and coccidia were more prevalent in pups than in mature dogs, whereas bookworms were detected less often in young dogs than in older ones. 5. There were significant (p<0.01) differences among age categories for all parasites except tapeworms.

Recent impervious pavements on roads and sidewalks cause rainwater to not penetrate into the ground, deplete groundwater, or flood the rivers, causing urban flood damage. In order to solve these problems, the amount of installed pitcher block is increasing, but the existing pitcher block is made with cement base and causes many problems. In the cement permeable block, the efflorescene phenomenon occurs due to the acid component, and the pore of the permeable block is clogged and the permeability is lost. As a result, the service life of the pitcher block is shortened and the replacement period is shortened. The purpose of this study is to analyze the basic properties of polymer concrete by replacing cement with polymer in order to solve the problem of cement - based concrete permeable block.

Permeable polymer concrete can be applied to roads, sidewalks, river embankment, drain pipes, conduits, retaining walls, yards, parking lots, plazas, interlocking blocks, etc. This study is to explore a possibility of utilizing industrial by-products, a blast furnace slag and a fly ash, as fillers for permeable polymer concrete. Different mixing proportions are tried to find an optimum mixing proportion of permeable polymer concrete. The tests are carried out at 20$\pm$1$^{\circ}C$ and 60$\pm$2$^{\circ}C$ relative humidity. At 7 days of curing, compressive, flexural and splitting tensile strengths and water permeability ranged between 239~285kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 107~133kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 37~46kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 4.612~5.913$\ell$/$\textrm{cm}^2$/h, respectively. It is concluded that the blast furnace slag and fly ash can be used in permeable polymer concrete.

In this study the mechanical properties of various wire mesh reinforcing porous concrete mixtures are investigated. A properly designed porous concrete pavements provides a durable riding surface. It also eliminates puddles and standing water, resulting in improved skid resistance. The most popular application is that of light-traffic volume roadways such as parking lots, resident roads, driveways, and sidewalks. Flexural strength and toughness index are examined for wire mesh reinforcing porous concrete. Type of Wire mesh is divided into three cases, A type, B type and C type. It shows A type is most excellent shape of destruction of slab specimen is similar to that of flexural specimen. The aim of this paper is to present the results of a pilot study undertaken to examine the extent to which wire mesh reinforced porous concrete can be used as a continuous paving materials.

Presented herein is a numerical study for evaluating the aerodynamic behaviour of equipped bridge deck sections. In the first part, the method adopted is described, in particular concerning turbulence models, meshing requirements and numerical approach. The validation of the procedure represents the aim of the second part of the paper: the results of the numerical simulation in case of two-dimensional, steady, incompressible, turbulent flow around a realistic bridge deck are compared to the data collected from wind-tunnel tests. In order to demonstrate the influence of the section details and of the partial streamlining of the deck geometry on its aerodynamic behaviour, in the third part of the paper the effect of the fairings and of each item of equipment of the section (such as central barriers, side railings and sidewalks) is evaluated. The study has been applied to the deck section of the Normandy cable-stayed bridge.

Recently, the flooding of rivers caused by rainy season and heavy rains in Korea causes economic and environmental problems such as flood damage and urban flooding. Therefore, in order to solve these problems, local governments use landscaping methods and drainage facilities to prevent them, but they are not perfect solutions. Domestic awareness also lacks awareness to worry about flooding only during rainy seasons and heavy rains, and to worry about or prevent flooding in the region. In order to solve this problem, we recognize the importance of permeable blocks nationwide and replace or install permeable paving materials on most sidewalks. However, since existing permeable blocks used cement as the main material, calcium carbonate is produced when reacted with water. Efflorescence occurs, and the resulting calcium carbonate blocks the pores of the permeation block, causing a decrease in permeability.
