Provisional fixed partial dentures(FPDs) are an important part of many prosthodontic treatment procedures. These provisional fixed prostheses must fulfill biologic, mechanical, and esthetic requirements to be considered successful. Consideration of all these factors and requirements are important because provisional resin restorations may be worn over a long period to assess the results of periodontal and endodontics therapies, and also during the restorative phase of implant reconstructive procedures. This in vitro study examined flexual strength of four resins commonly used for fixed provisional prostheses. The effects of polymerization conditions were also evaluated. The four resins tested were : Caulk Temporary bridge resin(L.D. Caulk Co. Dentsply International Millford), Jet(Lang Dental Mfg. Co. Chicago. ILL. U.S.A), Alike (Coe Laboratories. Inc. Chicago. ILL. U.S.A) and Tokuso Curefast (Coe Laboratories. Inc. Chicago. ILL. U.S.A) The test specimens were 65mm long, 14mm wide, and 3.5mm thickness. 10 specimens of four resins were cured for 15 minutes at atmospheric pressure and 10 specimens of four resins were cured at an additional pressure of approximately 20 psi. A total of 80 specimens were prepared. The flexual strength was determined by three-point bending test. Data were analysed with the Paired samples T-test and Tukey student-range test Within the limitations imposed in this study, the following conclusions can be drawn : 1. Under the condition of bench curing, Caulk Temporary bridge resin showed the highest flexual strength. In decreasing order, the flexual strength of the other materials was as follows : Jet, Tokuso Curefast, Alike, and Caulk Temporary bridge resin demonstrated significantly higher strength than other resins. 2. Under the condition of pressure curing, Jet showed the highest flexual strength. In decreasing order, the flexual strength of the other materials was as follows : Caulk Temporary bridge resin, Tokuso Curefast, and Alike. There were all statistically significant differences among four resins 3. There was a statistically significant difference between bench- and pressure-cured specimens in all four materials.

The Yi Sun-Sin grand bridge is the suspension bridge which connects Myodo and Gwangyang. It is over the main navigation channel of Gwangyang Harbor. South anchorage(AN1, Myodo side) of the bridge is designed as rock anchored type. It sustains using the resistance of the underground rock's mass in Myodo. As this type of anchorage can minimize the exposure of the structure, It is economically efficient and environmentally friendly. North anchorage (AN2, Gwangyang side) is designed as the gravity type. This anchorage is 68 meters in diameter and use its own weight to support. Instead of normal rectangular diaphragm wall, the circular shape diaphragm wall is adopted to the north anchorage. It doesn't need to use internal temporary facilities, so it can significantly improve the constructability of the structure.

This study suggests IFC-based bridge information modeling methods and its application model in BIM environment. Data model extension for bridge structure was achieved using user-defined property sets based on IFC framework. First, identification information was added. Bridge members are identified through physical and spatial semantic information added as property sets. Instances for semantic information were assigned according to standardized rules. Second, CO2 related factors were added for application information model. It can play a role to calculate and manage the quantity of CO2 emission. Third, properties for temporary structure to estimate and manage the construction cost were added. Finally, we investigated proposed methods through implementing the application information model of bridges.

This study intends to conduct a thorough research and analysis on the designated temporary residential facilities for the disaster victims in order to bridge the gap between the temporary residential facilities for the disaster victims in country and city, and understand the current status of the designated temporary residential facilities for the disaster victims in rural and urban areas. As a result, the designated temporary residential facilities for the disaster victims in urban areas are bigger and have higher capacity, implying the necessity to designate facilities in rural areas that can accommodate larger number of people. As to the analysis of the representative temporary residential facilities for the disaster victims in rural areas, different regions had different types of designated facilities and the number of facilities also showed big difference depending on regions. So it is believed that local governments should improve the process and system of designating temporary residential facilities for the disaster victims.

The concrete work of bridge decks is performed in a high place, which may reduce safety and productivity. In addition, the conventional method for deck forms require a great deal of manpower, and a form (sheathing) board is damaged when removed after curing. As a result, the concrete deck work of bridge construction becomes the cause of delayed construction and increased cost. To solve these problems, SMART form, a system form, is developed. SMART form is a temporary device for easier installation and removal, by mounting it to the lower flange of a bridge girder and using a mechanical behavior of the form system for deck concrete pouring. For stable installation and removal of the developed SMART form, geometric behaviors should be analyzed to prove its validity. Furthermore, the validity of geometric behaviors when the SMART form size is altered in response to the various arrangement of bridge girders should be proved. Thus, the study is intended to analyze the geometric validity of the form system for bridge deck concrete pouring. The structural stability of the form system for bridge deck concrete pouring can be secured, which will be applied in the field.

The substructure of temporary bridges used during the construction period of main bridges needs to be simple and strong at the same time so that it doesn't block running water. When the water flow is hindered by sub-structure of the bridges, as it happens when H beams with bracing are used, either the water floods or the bridge gets damaged. Therefore, using round beams for the substructure and connect them together is a preventive choice considering the intensive raining in the summer. The bridges using round beams for the substructure have also benefited by fast construction because of fewer bracing and in-situ welding. Because the round-pile-connecting method is relatively new, the safety evaluation of the constructed bridge is an essential procedure before being used in the field. The field evaluation of a bridge including the vehicle loading test and moving load analysis has been conducted and the results showed the safety requirement is satisfied.

This research examined an immediate loading capable of providing a masticatory function and financial affordability while satisfying every requirement of a useful immediate loading. In this research, numerical value analysis was performed on couple-type posterior teeth implants developed by making up for the problems of extant implants. As a result of examining the effects of external impacts on extant implants and their deformation, relatively lager deformations separated from a molar were found concerning molar deformation implant with the maximum deformation level being approximately 1.657mm. In this research, the improved implant showed much improvement in terms of impact analysis in its deformation dispersion status after unloading the impulsive load from a punch. As for the case of hepf, about 1.657mm occurred but the improved model showed about 0.9217mm, exhibiting 55.6% advancement.

Unlike general construction works, bridge construction is mostly done in a high place. The conventional deck form of bridge is installed between precast concrete girders using sleepers, bridging joints and plywoods, and after concrete is poured to the deck, the form materials are removed at high altitudes. When removing the form, it may be dropped on ground, damaging the materials and resulting in economic loss. In addition, safety accidents are likely as the works are performed in a high place, and as the manpower increases, the cost increases. Also, it is difficult to install and remove temporary equipment. Therefore, it is required to develop a system form that allows easier and quicker installation and removal by unskilled workers and ensures safety of workers. In this regard, the study is intended to analyze requirements for the system form for pouring concrete to bridge decks, which can be easily installed and removed. The study result will be used as basic information for development of the system form for pouring concrete to bridge decks.

It is on increasing trend to employ H-rolled beams as main flexural members of bridges and of temporary structures owing to their handiness for construction, maintenance, and management. But in the case of applying H-rolled beams to bridges, maximum length of bridge span is around 20m. Therefore, to develop simplified steel-concrete composite bridge having long span using H-rolled beam needs new cross girder system at internal supports, optimization of bridge system without cross beams between supports and steel-concrete composite bridge deck. This study performs mechanical analysis of cross girder system for H-rolled beam steel-concrete composite bridge with long span and verifies its usefulness.

Fatigue strength of temporary steels and painted structural steels corroded under outdoor atmospheric environments is not clear. In this study, fatigue tests were carried out on steel plates which were cut off from 7-year-old temporary structural member under subway construction environment and from 75-year-old Yeongdo bridge member under marine atmospheric environment. After removing corrosion production on the steel surface, 3-dimensional surface geometry of the corroded steel was measured at intervals of $1.0{\times}1.0mm$, and corrosion characteristics such as minimum, maximum and mean values of residual thicknesses were calculated. From the fatigue test and FEM analysis results, the relationship between corrosion characteristics and fatigue behavior was presented, and change in fatigue strength of the unpainted and painted steels corroded in outdoor environments was also presented.
