The Study aims at carrying out basic research on the future housing culture plan by the aging and low fertility phenomenon which is the most serious problem that Korean society faces today. In the future, the housing culture will be transformed into a 'convergence housing complex's residential culture' that can be coexisted with households with various members, rather than a housing type represented by apartments today, due to the phenomenon of nuclear family and the increase of one resident. In this regard, this study is a basic study on the housing complex culture of Korea. It is not that the hosing complex culture has been imported from the western society today, but the Korean traditional housing complex's culture proposed by Korean first developer Segwon Jeong has already existed in Korea urban and architectural perspective. In the early 20th century, Segwon's improved Hanok planned to complement the disadvantages of the existing hanok and the modernization of hanok such as the standardization of hanok, moreover the most important point is the beginning of the Korean style housing complex by modernization of the inner space of hanok. It is expected that this study for Segwon's housing complex of improved hanok will provide important basic data for the Korean-style convergence residential culture plan needed for our society in the future.

A series of experiments were performed to investigate the design and application of a rubble-ground modification method with grout injection. A small-sized injection machine was designed, and the grouts with various mix proportions were injected into 25 mm aggregate using the designed small-sized injection machine. With the compressive strength of the grout ranging from 20 to 80 MPa, the uniaxial compressive strength of the grout-filling bodies with clean gravels was higher than 1/6th of the strength of grouts themselves. However, this fraction may reduce depending on the interface conditions. The erosion resistance of the hardened grout was evaluated, and it was determined that the grout with a strength greater than 15 MPa did not require erosion consideration. Moreover, a full-scale injection test was performed for 25 cm-sized rubbles in cages with a diameter greater than 1 m and a height of 1.2 m to evaluate the filling characteristics of the grout. Results from this test indicated that the grout flowability sensitively influenced the filling characteristics.

In this study, the centrifuge tests were performed to investigate the lateral flow behavior and stability of the ground improved by SCP. The centrifuge tests were fulfilled in the case of the back of abutment filled by EPS (case 1) and soil (case 2), and the potentiometer was installed on the abutment and embankment to measure the vertical and horizontal displacement at the top of abutment. As a result, the vertical displacement measured at the back of abutment was maximum 2.1 m, which was about 12% if compared with the height of embankment. In the case of the back of abutment filled by soil, the vertical and horizontal displacement measured at the top of abutment was 10 cm and 1.1 m, respectively, which exceeded the allowable horizontal displacement. On the other hand, in the case of the back of abutment filled by EPS, the vertical displacement of abutment did nor occur and the horizontal displacement was 1.4 cm. Therefore, the effect of SCP improvement with EPS method adopted to prevent the lateral flow and assure the stability of embankment on the soft ground was far superior.

With the increase of steel production research interest on the recycling of slag as a by-product also increases steadily. Currently in Korea a lot of researches on blast-furnace slag have been made. However, the researches on the steel slag have been rarely made. Also, a research of steel slag, especially the use of oxidation furnace slag as aggregates for concrete progress, is performing actively, but the research results on the furnace slag are almost nothing. Recently, the research about the furnace slag as backfill material and embankment material confirmed the possibility of the clay soil amendment. Therefore, the object of this study is to review the possibility as civil engineering materials for soil improvement and to find the optimum mixture ratio of furnace slag. This research analyzed the ingredient component of the reduced slag by SEM, XRF, XRD tests and examined the strength increase using unconfined compression tests when the clay and reduced slag are mixed each other. Through this test, the definite strength increase is confirmed according to the mixture of the reduced slag and the possibility of soil improvement is also confirmed based on this result. The object of the study is both utilizing the by-product for civil engineering purpose and effective recycling by the application of the furnace slag for soil improvement.

Soft ground stabilization is needed to construct large civil facilities on the soft clay ground. Pre-loading method, which is accelerating consolidation method, is generally used to stabilize the soft ground. However, pre-loading method is required long construction period and quantities of fill material. Therefore, electro-osmosis method is used to replace pre-loading method for stabilizing the soft ground. Electro-osmosis method is disadvantageous in constructive and economic aspects because it is needed a metallic electrode. So, in order to solve the those disadvantages, plastic electrode was developed to replace metallic electrode. Plastic electrode, which is made by using nano-technology on existing Plastic Drain Board (PDB), was used to supply the electric power. In this study, therefore, the model test was conducted to confirm the effect of improvement and electrical characteristics of soft ground by spacing of plastic electrode. The result shows that the effect of improvement of soft ground was decreased up to 45% by increasing electrode spacing and electrical characteristics on the soft ground were influenced by consolidation settlement with electrode spacing.

In this study, the amount of heaving soil and the heave characteristics of the heaving soil generated at the actual site were quantitatively analyzed through DCM laboratory test construction. By reproducing a series of construction processes of the DCM method in a large-scale soil tank close to the actual site, the amount of heaving soil was predicted and the elevation characteristics such as elevation, diffusion range, diffusion angle and amount of elevation of the heaving soil were evaluated. As a result of the laboratory test construction, the actual elevation in terms of similarity within the DCM improvement section is 0~8.18m, and an average of 3.50m is observed. The actual diffusion range of the heaving soil converted to the similarity ratio is distributed from 28.0 to 38.0m on the left and right sides of the improvement section. The total amount of heaving soil calculated by the SUFFER program based on the results of the laboratory test construction is 19,901m³. Compared with the injected slurry amount of 16,992m³, the amount of heave compared to the injected amount is analyzed as 85.4%. The diffusion angle of DCM heaving soil, which analyzed the results of DCM laboratory test construction with the SUFFER program, is measured to be 30.0~38.0° at a depth of 50.0m, and is evaluated as an average of 34.0°. On the other hand, based on the DCM laboratory test construction and the analysis results using the program performed in this study, the amount of heaving soil at the DCM depths of 40.0m and 60.0m is predicted.

Recycled-aggregate porous concrete pile (RAPP) which forms a composite ground is one of new ground improvement techniques. In this paper, triaxial compression tests are carried out to investigate the shear strength characteristics of RAPP-Clay composite samples. The main purpose of the tests was to investigate the effects of area replacement ratio ($15%{\sim}100%$) on behaviors of RAPP-Clay samples during shearing. Also, triaxial compression tests using Sand-Clay composite samples were performed to compare with the behaviors of RAPP-Clay samples. The test results showed that the friction angle and cohesion of the RAPP-Clay composite were $18{\sim}34$ degree and $557.0{\sim}588.0\;kPa$, respectively, whereas those of sand-clay composite samples were 26~35 degree of friction angel and $4.0{\sim}18.0\;kPa$.

The purpose of this paper is to study on the construction of roadbed with environmental friendly soil amendment agent. The special amendment agent used in this study is mainly composed of inorganic metal salts such as sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride,, thus is friendly to the environment, and has a function of soil-cement-agent solidification. Various components of this agent weaken the negative function of humic acid and decompose humic acid itself. Then, the calcium cation of the cement can now be made contact directly to the soil surface. The project of local road demonstration of roadbed construction with special soil treatment agent was peformed in Northeast Thailand on August 1999 by the sponsor of Highway Department of Thailand. A series of field experiments including unconfined compressive strength were carried out to investigate the physical and mechanical characteristics of solidified roadbed treated by this solidifying agent. The results of this research showed that the roadbed using poor soil could be efficiently constructed by treatment of this amendment agent.
