  • The wooden building is mainly damaged by the termite which have an effect of the structure by making emptied inner part of wood. One class, Japanese termite, inhabits throughout Korea and is often detected. So the deterioration by termite attacking the wooden building needs to be controlled. Termites are over 2,800 species in the world, usually they inhabit in the tropical or subtropical region and don’t over winter in dormant condition. So their activity and distribution are chiefly restricted by temperature and humidity. The termite inhabiting in Korea is Reticulitermes speratus kyushuensis Morimoto, which known to have an optimal temperature range at $12~30^{\circ}C$ and minimum temperature at $6^{\circ}C$ for activation. These temperatures correspond to the mean temperature($5.6^{\circ}C$~$25.8^{\circ}C$) from March to November and the activity time of termitein Seoul. In addition, as a result of environmental pollution by industrial development, the climate of Korea is getting warm. The increase of mean temperature in Korea has been $1.1^{\circ}C$ for the past seventy five years, so it is expected that the damage of wooden building by termite will increase gradually. Therefore, in order to protect wooden building from damages by termite, it needs not only development of new pest control methods, but also studies on the control of environmental factors having an effect on the activity and growth of termite. For the conservation of the large cultural properties such as the wooden building in the open air, it would be effective to use the methods of fumigation, insecticidal and antiseptic chemical treatment of wood materials, soil termiticideinjection treatment, and termite colony elimination system.

  • To investigate weathering and surface characteristics of coating film on lumbers coated with Hwangchil(varnish of Dendropanax morbifera), we carried out to investigate the resistance against discoloration, value of crack and surface characteristics of coating films on seven domestic lumbers and those of four introduced tropical lumbers. There was investigated to evaluate the properties of coating films by the varnish of Dendropanax morbifera. There was insignificant correlations between the hardness and moisture contents of each lumber treated by the varnish. There was no significant correlations between the thickness of coating film and the hardness, either. Although we investigated 11 wood species, we found only three species as resistance wood species against discoloration; Diospysos spp., Abies holophylla and Ulmus davidiana. The crack of coaing films was the largest on Zelkova serrata followed by Juglans sinensis, Cercidiphum japonicum, Tectona grands, Ulmus davidiana, Guibourtia tessmannii, Diospysos spp. and Dalbergia latifolia. However, there was no crack of coating films on the lumbers of Juniperus rigida, Prunus serrulata var. spontanea and Abies holophylla. The crack of coating film showed positive correlations with the thickness of coating film and hardness. The surface characteristics of the coating films evaluated on the basis of $R_{a}$ values indicated the lumbers of Ulmus davidiana($0.14{\;}{\mu}m$), Juniperus rigida($0.1 5{\;}{\mu}m$), Guibourtia tessmannii($0.19{\;}{\mu}m$), Dalvergia latifolia($0.20{\;}{\mu}m$) and Diospysos spp.($0.20{\;}{\mu}m$), Cercidiphum japonicum($0.24{\;}{\mu}m$) as good species while there was insignificant differences between softwoods and hardwoods. Tectona grands, Prunus serrulata var. spontanea and Abies holophylla showed rough surface with $1.53~2.63{\;}{\mu}m$ of $R_a$ values. The four kinds of rough indices($R_a,{\;}R_z,{\;}R_{max}{\;}and{\;}R_q$) showed very low correlations with moisture contents with the correlation coefficients. The $R_a{\;}and{\;}R_{max}$ also showed slight relationship with hardness.

  • To determine geographical patterns of natural parasite infections among wild rodents, a total of 46 wild rodents from 3 different localities in northern Gangwon-do (Province), Korea were examined for intestinal parasite infections. Along with nematodes such as hookworms and Syphacia spp., Plagiorchis muris (2 specimens) (Trematoda) were collected from striped field mice, Apodemus agrarius. In a Korean wood mouse, Apodemus peninsulae, the overall nematode infections were similar to A. agrarius, but an adult worm of Echinostoma hortense (Trematoda) was collected. In addition, 2 species of cestodes, i.e., Hymenolepis nana and Hymenolepis diminuta, were collected from A. agrarius. Through this survey, A. agrarius and A. peninsule were confirmed as the natural definite hosts for zoonotic intestinal helminths, i.e., P. muris, E. hortense, H. nana, and H. diminuta, in northern Gangwon-do, Korea. Considering increased leisure activities around these areas, seasonal and further comprehensive surveys on wild rodents seem to be needed to prevent zoonotic parasite infections.

  • Since 1990's, a flooring based on plywood has gotten customers' demand. Costs of raw material and production increased because of changed environment of industry. Tropical timber such as Red Meranti (Shorea acuminate) used for raw material of the floor has been depleting beside countries in South Eastern Asia changed species of afforestation. As a result, it gets hard to secure good quality of raw material for plywood. Moreover plywood price is increased suddenly after earthquake in Japan. Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus) in china has been using for raw material as a countermeasure of changed environment of industry. In this study, possibility of using flooring consisted of Eucalyptus veneer as a core layer was checked by heat transfer experiments. Flooring consisted of Red Meranti was used for comparison. Two factors which impact on heat transfer are a type of density gradient and density difference between Long-grain veneer and Short-grain veneer. Red Meranti samples are 'M' type of density gradient on the other hand Eucalyptus samples are 'W' type of density gradient.

  • The objective of this study was to identify the design characteristics of space components observed in Malaysian hotel lobbies. For this study, we conducted a case study on the facades and indoor space components of 15 hotel lobbies in Langkawi and Penang, and drew conclusions as follows. First, designs found in the facades and indoor space components of Malaysian hotel lobbies reflected all of traditional and colonial styles, religious styles including Islamic, and contemporary styles. Second, traditional designs showed rather the modernization of traditions than the preservation of traditions. Particularly in ceilings, walls and windows/doors, conservative or progressive modemization was observed frequently. Third, contemporary designs were mostly formative modernization, and materials and colors still adhered to traditions and nature. Fourth, in applied furniture, traditional wood sculptures were mixed or traditional material rattarn(stems of climbing palms) was utilized actively. Fourth, a large number of designs symbolized the Malaysian first religion Islam. Summing up these results, the common point of designs observed in the facades and indoor space components of Malaysian hotel lobbies was that they were transformed into Malaysian style regardless of whether they were traditional or colonial.

  • Wind action is a factor of fundamental importance in the structural design of light or slender constructions. Codes for structural design usually assume that the incident mean wind velocity is parallel to the ground, which constitutes a valid simplification for frequent winds caused by meteorological phenomena such as Extratropical Storms (EPS) or Tropical Storms. Wind effects due to other phenomena, such as thunderstorms, and its combination with EPS winds in so-called squall lines, are simply neglected. In this paper a model that describes the three-dimensional wind velocity field originated from a downburst in a thunderstorm (TS) is proposed. The model is based on a semi empirical representation of an axially-symmetrical flow line pattern that describes a stationary field, modulated by a function that accounts for the evolution of the wind velocity with time. The model allows the generation of a spatially and temporally variable velocity field, which also includes a fluctuating component of the velocity. All parameters employed in the model are related to meteorological variables, which are susceptible of statistical assessment. A background wind is also considered, in order to account for the translational velocity of the thunderstorm, normally due to local wind conditions. When the translation of the TS is caused by an EPS, a squall line is produced, causing the highest wind velocities associated with TS events. The resulting vertical velocity profiles were also studied and compared with existing models, such as the profiles proposed by Vicroy, et al. (1992) and Wood and Kwok (1998). The present model predicts horizontal velocity profiles that depend on the distance to the storm center, effect not considered by previous models, although the various proposals are globally compatible. The model can be applied in any region of interest, once the relevant meteorological variables are known, to simulate the excitation due to TS winds in the design of transmission lines, long-span crossings, cable-stayed bridges, towers or similar structures.

  • Pleurotus species are commercially essential mushrooms and widely cultivated throughout the world. The production of Pleurotus mushrooms alone accounts for around 25% of that total cultivated mushrooms globally. In America and Europe, Pleurotus species are considered specialty mushrooms, whereas, in Korea, their cultivation is economically profitable, and it is one of the highly consumed species. Pleurotus species are predominantly found in tropical forests and often grow on fallen branches, dead and decaying tree stumps, and wet logs. Biographical studies have shown that the Pleurotus genus is among the more conspicuous fungi that induce wood decay in terrestrial ecosystems worldwide due to its formidable lignin-modifying enzymes, including laccase and versatile peroxidases. Pleurotus species can be grown easily due to their fast colonization nature on diversified agro-substrates and their biological efficiency 100%. Pleurotus mushrooms are rich in proteins, dietary fiber, essential amino acids, carbohydrates, water-soluble vitamins, and minerals. These mushrooms are abundant in functional bioactive molecules, though to influence health. Pleurotus mushrooms are finding unique applications as flavoring, aroma, and excellent preservation quality. Apart from its unique applications, Pleurotus mushrooms have a unique status delicacy with high nutritional and medicinal values. The present review provides an insight into the cultivation of Pleurotus spp. using different agro-waste as growth substances paying attention to their effects on the growth and chemical composition.

  • 지금까지 A/R CDM 사업의 가장 본질적인 특징인 비영속성 연구가 많이 진행되지 못해 상환의무에 따른 사업 타당성에 관한 체계적인 판단이 어려운 현실이었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 A/R CDM 사업의 특정과 기본 개념을 바탕으로 두 가지 대비되는 사례를 이용해 사업치 경제적 타당성을 분석하였다. tCER, lCER 모두 높은 수익성을 유지하기 위해서는 목재가격 변화보다는 탄소가격이 보다 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 크레딧을 판매하거나 사용하는 경우 모두 해당되는데, 본 분석에서는 사례 1에서 탄소배출권을 판매하고 수익을 17%시 tCER이 가장 탄소가격에 민감한 것으로 나타났다. 크레딧 종류별로 민감도 효과를 파악할 수도 있는데, 수익을 수준과 무관하게 tCER은 탄소가격, lCER은 목재가격에 보다 민감한 것으로 분석되었다. 사례 2에서 탄소배출권을 사용하고 수익을 13%시 lCER이 목재가격에 가장 민감한 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 크레딧을 판매하는 경우보다 직접 감축의무에 사용하여 이를 상환할 때, 일정 수익성을 유지하기 위해서는 목재가격이 보다 중요한 요인으로 작용하게 된다. 그리고 본 연구에서 분석된 사례지역의 경우 약 $11/$tCO_2$ 에서 $37/$tCO_2$의 크레딧 가격이 형성되어야 CDM 조림사업 추진이 타당한 것으로 분석되었다.

  • 대나무류(類)는 열대방지(熱帶方地)에서 총생(叢生)하는 대형(大型)의 대나무가 많고, 온대(溫帶)가 되면 소형(小型)의 세류(笹類)로 퇴화(退化)하여, 그 종류(種類)는 세계(世界)에 50속(屬) 1,000여종(餘種)이나 있다고하여 그 종류수(種類數)는 대단(大端)히 많다. 이와 같은 대나무는 동양(東洋)에서는 건엽용(建葉用)과 공예용(工藝用)으로 이용(利用)되고있으며, 또한 죽순(竹筍)은 식용(食用)으로서 특유(特有)한 맛이있어 상용(賞用)되고있을 뿐만아니라 최근(最近)에는 세류(笹類)의 액즙(液汁)이 암(癌)에도 효과(効果)가 있다고 하여 중요(重要)한 산업(産業)으로서 발달(發達)하게되었다. 그리고 동남아(東南亞)에서는 삽목(揷木)으로서 용이(容易)하게 증산(增産)하여 pulp재(材)로 사용(使用)하게되여 대단(大端)히 중요시(重要視)하고있다. 이와같이 대나무는 인류생활(人類生活)에 필요부가결(必要不可決)한 목본식물(木本植物)이지만 아직까지 그 형태(形態)의 분류(分類)가 명확(明確)하게 되어 있지 않고 지연되여 있는 형편이다. 18세기(世紀) 중반기(中半期)의 Linne시대(時代)에 들어와서 생식기관(生殖器管)을 주체(主體)로 한 그 형태(形態)의 분류체계(分類體系)가 만들어진 이래(以來) 수정(修正)이 거듭되여온 바 있으나 대나무는 개화(開花)가 일정(一定)한 주기(周期)가 있어서 60-120년(年)의 기나긴 세월(歲月)이 소요(所要)되기 때문에 그의 형태적(形態的) 분류체계(分類體系)를 완성(完成)하는일은 극(極)히 어려운 일이었다. 오늘날까지 대나무에 관(關)한 많은 문헌(文獻)이 있기는 하나 그 시료(試料)가 적기때문에 불확실(不確實)한 기재(記載)도 많이있었고 속(屬)이 변경(變更)된것도 간혹(間或)있어서 그것을 공인(公認)할수 없는 것이 많이 있다. 그래서 내부(內部)의 형태적(形態的)인 분류(分類)에 관(關)하여는 근년(近年)에 이르러 중국(中國)의 Liese씨(氏)에 의(依)하여 겨우 시작(始作)이 되였으며, 또한 독일(獨逸)의 Grosser씨등(氏等)이 유관속(維管束)의 형태(形態)에 착안(着眼)하여 새로운 형태(形態)의 분류(分類)를 시도(試圖)한바있다. 그러나 이들의 이 형태(形態)에 관한 분류(分類)는 Holttum의 자방(子房)의 형태(形態)에 의(依)한 분류(分類)와 밀접(密接)한 관계(關係)가 있는것 뿐이었다. 따라서 필자(筆者)는 유관속초(維管束鞘)의 형태(形態)에 의(依)해 자유중국산(自由中國産)의 대나무 11속(屬) 26종류(種類)를 재료(材料)로하여 대나무의 형태(形態)에 관(關)한 분류체계(分類體系)에 대(對)하여 재고(再考)를 시도(試圖)하여 보았다. 그 결과(結果) Grosser씨(氏) 등(等)의 형태(形態)의 분류(分類)와 일부(一部)는 일치(一致)하였으나, Bambusa와 Dendrocalamus는 분류(分類)하기가 곤란(困難)하였던 것을 고립유관속초(孤立維管束鞘)의 존부(存否)로서 명확(明確)히 구별(區別)할수있었고 또한 종류(種類)가 많은 Bambusa를 2개(個)의 형(型)으로 나눌수가 있었다. 따라서 이 결과(結果)는 앞으로 아속(亞屬)이나 혹(或)은 절(節)로서의 분류(分類)로서 고려(考慮)되여야 할 문제(問題)라고 생각한다. 왜냐하면 이 근거(根據)는, 죽간(竹稈)의 최외층(最外層)에서 최내층(最內層)으로 향(向)하여 변화(變化)하고있는 형태(形態)에 착안(着眼)하여, 그 분화적(分化的)인 면(面)을 관찰(觀察)하였기 때문이다. 이 형태적(形態的)인 분화(分化)에 관(關)한 관찰(觀察)은 형태분류(形態分類)의 철칙(鐵則)인 "간단(簡單)한 것에서 복잡(複雜)한 것으로 진화(進化)한다"라고하는 철칙(鐵則)에 있어서도 충분(充分)히 조사(調査)하여 보았는데, 그 결과(結果)는 생식기관(生殖器官)의 형태적분류(形態的分類)와 대조(對照)하여 결정(決定)되어야 할 것이며, 금후(今後)의 문제(問題)로서 계속연구(繼續硏究)할까 생각한다.
