Recently the earthquake occurrences in Korea are likely to increase. Therefore, the facilities such as bridges and tunnels under the unexpected earthquakes need to be enhanced. Especially most of the subways previously built before 1988 have not been seismically designed, so their seismic safety requirements are required to be inspected and/or reinforced. In this study, the seismic reinforcement using FRP-ductile material layered composites was proposed to reinforce for the subway columns. Material properties of FRP-ductile material layered composites were calculated by laboratory tests considering the laminated conditions of the composites. Numerical simulations were performed using the experimental results of the specimens and the calculated properties of the composites. Seismic performance varied according to the types of composites: ductile material, number of layers, fiber orientations.

There have been high demands for urban underground structures. However, they should be rapidly constructed while maintaining the functions of adjacent structures and road systems especially in urban areas. In this respect, trenchless excavation methods are considered to very effective in minimizing ground displacements during excavation works. A variety of field conditions such as economic, technical and environmental aspects should be taken into consideration when an optimum trechless excavation method is to be chosen in a given condition. Therefore, this study aims to carry out a fundamental study to select an optimum trenchless excavation method by the decision making technique. Especially, AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) which is a kind of a multiple attribute decision making process is adopted to consider the opinions of experts and to derive reliable decision criteria. As a result, the weights of key factors and the most effective trenchless methods for different ground conditions were proposed in this study.

In construction, schedule management is the basic but important step, for the effective schedule management, the preparation of the reasonable schedule table should be prioritized. In the design stage, the optimal construction period can be selected through comparison of various conditions and construction methods considering weather conditions and site characteristics. But, At the planning phase, it is difficult to select the effective method and calculate the proper construction period by the basic data(D/B) analysis. In this paper, the construction method considering characteristics of each type and conditions of existing city was selected. For the reasonable duration calculation, we analyzed the unit schedule for RC method for open type and Shield TBM method for tunnel type. The normal project duration of construction assuming of 1,200m of extension and every 200m of ventilation was prepared by integrating each unit schedule. It was analyzed that it took 893 days for the open type and 616 days for the tunnel type. The results of this study will help to make type selection and normal project duration more easily in the planning phase. If it is linked to the design stage, it will be easy to estimate the process and construction cost.

This study made progress about Demage Mechanism of Transition Section in Cut and Cover Tunnel. For this study, Inspection and test was carried out about Transition Section. After this process, Numerical Analysis was accomplished by 2D, 3D. A result of inspection and test, It couldn't find the reason why the upper slab Demage was detected. So 2D Numerical Analysis was conducted. It was analyzed that the Safety Factor(1.0) was satisfied in 2D. But, the result of 3D Numerical Analysis, The reason was found that the Demage on upper slab was caused by moment change. The Moment was changed by column interval transition. For Retrofitting, Column was added under slab in tunnel. It was found that the addition column decreased upper slab deformation. After this study, It could be find that are important 3D Numerical Analysis as well as 2D Numerical Analysis in case of Transition Section. This Study can help developing construction and maintenance about Tunnel. Finally, It's going to study Retrofitting plans which have minimum influence of Transition Section in Cut and Cover Tunnel.

Recently the design specification has been advanced with preventing earthquake disaster in Korea because of increasing occurrence of large size earthquake. A composite plate with ductile fiber is proposed, which can enhance the performance of built tunnel in both strength and ductility. This study is to focus to verify the effect of strengthening of existing tunnels which is built without earthquake type load scenario, so that it can provide the safety of existing urban subway system against earthquakes.

This study is to confirm the effect of pre-installed pipe-roof by measuring earth pressure acting on the underpass. In recently developed trenchless methods pre-inserted steel pipes before ground excavation to form pipe-roof are connected each other with re-bars and filled with mortar. In this study, focusing on the Upgraded Pipe Roof Structure method (UPRS) and Front-Jacking, earth pressure around pipe-roof is measured after insertion of steel pipe to ensure the effect of earth pressure reduction. In case of the UPRS earth pressure is considerably reduced because of the reinforced effect of pipe-roof. In case of the Front-Jacking in which the whole underpass structure is pushed into the ground, earth pressure is not reduced as expected, because the pre-installed pipes are not needed to be reinforced.

In recent, in case that the underpass is constructed by trenchless method, its stability increases by reinforcing steel pipe with re-bar and mortar after propulsion into the ground to form pipe-roof. Therefore, it can be predicted that the integrated pipe-roof decreases the stress acting on the underpass by sharing load. In this study, to analyze the effect of integrated pipe-roof and behavior of stress around underpass, experimental tests for the rectangular and arch cross section of the underpass are performed using soil chamber. As a result, stress and strain acting on the underpass decrease due to sharing load by integrated pipe-roof. This phenomenon is more pronounced by increasing the stiffness of pipe-roof. Furthermore it can be expected that cross-section of underpass can be economically designed.

In this paper, the development of trench shield machine for near-surface railway construction were presented. The Near-surface railway can be constructed by cut and cover construction method, because it is installed at the depth of 5~7 m below roads. The cut and cover construction method mostly use temporary supports. The limitation of the cut and cover method is high installation cost and long construction period. To overcome these disadvantages, development of the trench shield machine is proposed and expected to shorten the construction time and cost of near-surface railway system. The sliding retaining wall of trench shield equipment replaces the role of temporary support (solider piles and lagging) and excavator equiped to the bottom front of the machine shorten the excavation time. This paper deals with design of the bit attached to the excavator and required capacity of the motor.

This study aims to numerically investigate ground movement around a square steel pipe as well as a group of square steel pipes induced by its and their ground penetration for trenchless construction of a concrete box. From numerical results, ground movement induced by a square steel pipe is much more dominantly governed by vertical displacement rather than horizontal displacement. Ground settlement induced by pipe penetration is much larger as the overburden becomes lower. The settlement is also shown to be slightly dependent upon the sequence of pipe penetration. More careful construction management is highly in demand during the penetration of upper pipes since their induced settlement occupies approximately 75 percent of total ground settlement after the whole construction of steel pipes.
