Porosity in concrete has close relationship with durability characteristics. Additionally mixed water can help easy mixing and workability but causes increased porosity, which yields degradation of durability performance. In this paper, cement mortar samples with 0.45 of w/c (water to cement ratio) are prepared and durability performances are evaluated with additional water from 0.45 to 0.60 of w/c. Various durability tests including strength, chloride diffusion, air permeability, saturation, and moisture diffusion are performed. Then they are analyzed with changing porosity. Changing ratios and the patterns of durability performance are quantitatively evaluated considering pore size distribution, total porosity, and additional water content.

This study was conducted to select an excellent goods and to estabilish the plant density of Amorphohpallus konjac. K about 3 local varieties and 2 introduced varieties through each fertilizer level. 1. Plant height and leaf width were increased according to increasing fertilizer level, and tuber yield was the highest at N-P$_2$ $O_{5}$ -K$_2$ O (14-10-14kg) per 10a as 390kg in Geumsan. 2. The more tuber size was large, the more yields per plant due to increasing the plant height and leaf width at low densities, while yields per 10a was decreased. 3. Among 5 varieties used, Jechon cultivar was good as a propagating variety because of increasing number of tuber and bulblet and Japan cultivar was high tuber yield per 10a.

These studies were carried out to clarify the effects of black P.E. mulching and planting density on the growth and rhizome yield of Jihwang #1, a new high yielding Rehmannia glutinosa variety. Emergence ratio was higher 3.1％ in mulching than in non-mulching, but was not affected by planting density. Plant height and fresh leaf weight per plant were increased by mulching and at lower planting density. However, the fresh leaf weight per unit area was increased at higher planting density. Dry rhizome weight was increased 28% in mulching than that of non-mulching. Dry rhizome weight per plant was increased, but that of per unit area was decreased at lower planting density.

농업용수 수요량을 산정하는 방법으로서는 계측 및 추정방법에 따라 사용수량을 직접 계측하는 방법, 대표작물의 단위수량으로 추정하는 방법, 증발산 이론을 이용하여 추정하는 방법 등이 있다. 우리나라에서는 현실적으로 농업지역에서의 계측자료가 충분하지 못하고, 자연조건에 따라 크게 좌우되는 농업용수 특성상 증발산 이론에 의한 수요량 추정기법이 주로 적용되고 있으며, 그 중에서도 필요수량 개념의 접근법이 과거로부터 많이 활용되어 왔다. 이 방법은 경작지 내 작물의 생육에 필요한 수량을 공급하기 위한 목적으로 저수지나 관정 등의 시설용량 결정 및 계획 수립을 위해 활용되는 방법으로서, 1965년도 처음 수립된 수자원장기종합계획에서부터 현재까지 우리나라 농업용수 수요량 추정에 적용되어 왔으며, 제주도 수자원관리종합계획에서도 적용되었다. 또 다른 접근법으로서 유역에서의 물수지 관점에서 경작지 내 물 사용에 의해 감소되는 하천 수량을 산정함으로써 순물소모량을 추정하는 방법이 있다. 물수지 분석은 장래의 용수수요와 기준년의 자연유량을 비교함으로써 향후의 안정적 용수수급을 계획하기 위한 방법으로서 많이 활용되고 있다. 우리나라에서는 1977년 낙동강유역 하구조사 기술보고서에서 처음 순물소모량 개념을 도입하여 수요량을 추정하였으며, 이후 제3차 수자원장기종합계획(1991-2011), 21세기를 바라보는 수자원전망(1993) 등에서 이 방법을 통해 미래의 용수수급 전망을 분석한 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 제주도 지역의 수자원 부존량 해석 및 장래 용수 이용에 따른 수자원의 과부족 해석, 수자원관리계획 수립을 위한 목적으로 순물소모량 개념을 적용하였다. 제주도는 경지면적 중 밭의 비율이 99%이상이며, 대부분 관정에 의한 지하수를 이용하여 스프링클러 또는 점적관개에 의해 용수량을 공급하고 있다. 따라서, 제주도 지질 특성 및 밭작물 관개특성을 고려하여 제주도 지역에 적합한 순물소모량 산정식을 제안하고, 이에 따라 시험유역을 대상으로 대표작물(감귤, 콩 등)에 대한 순물소모량을 산정하였다.

Roller Compacted Concrete Pavement (RCCP), is a type of pavement using compaction roller and asphalt finisher on concrete mixture that contains low amount of water. RCCP strength and durability are greatly affected by compaction level. Quality control is performed by ensuring the degree of compaction at site based on dry density. In the field, Modified Proctor Test is used in order to obtain optimum dry density. However, there is no clear compaction curve analysis criteria of Modified Proctor Test for RCCP. In this study, compaction curve built by three samples of Modified Proctor Test was produced and it was used to compare with compaction curve contented lower number of samples (one and two samples) in order to analyze their reliability. Thus, a conclusion was drawn from the results; by comparing to the result from Modified Proctor Test of three samples, the use of two samples represented result with only 0.5% of error which means the reliability is 99.5%.

An attempt has been made to determine the optimum size of sampling unit and the number of samples for a given precision in wheat, using the data collected from the various experiments in 1979/80. It was found that the coefficients of variation for number of spikes except the case of high-ridge broadcasting by 8HP rotarized seeder are in the same order of those for yield of wheat, and the regression coefficients associated with the coefficients of variation and the size of sampling unit were significant at 1% level of type I error. A wide range of variation in the size of sampling unit was observed for different methods of seeding, indicating the proper sizes of sampling units for 40cm \times 18cm, 60cm \times 18cm, 20cm \times 5cm, 120cm \times 90cm to be 0.40$m^2$, 0.17$m^2$, , 0.11$m^2$, , 0.55$m^2$, , respectively. The variance component for the experimental error was not physically possible to estimate due probably to high variability among the sampling units. The number of the sampling units per plot for a given precision of CV=12% was estimated to be one in an experiment with 4 replicates.

Crop productivity would be determined by relative capacity of source and sink. The study was carried out to measure the effects of shading and flower bud pinching on growth and yield of Atractylodes japonica Koidz. Shading treatment after transplanting was done at 100%, 65, 45 or 25% level of natural light intensity but the pinching treatment was to remove all the inflorescences formed after June 10, July 10, August 10 or none. Growth and yield at early and late stages were periodically measured. At the early stage, shading mainly influenced fresh weight rather than morphological characters. At the late stage, however, severer shading decreased numbers of stems, leaves, roots, fraction and total fresh weight. 65% shading from July 1 to September 30 after skipped the emerging and early growth stages showed nearly same growth and morphological characters but more rhizome yield per unit area than non-shading. In flower bud pinching treatment, earlier pinching increased number of roots, fraction fresh weights per plant and rhizome yield per unit area.

In concrete mix design we need the informations of the codes, the specifications, and the experiences of experts. However we can't consider all factors regarding concrete mix design. The final acceptance depends on concrete quality control test results. In this process we meet the uncertainties of materials. temperature, site environmental situations, personal skillfulness. and errors in calculations and testing process. Then the mix design adjustments must be made. Concrete mix design and adjustments arc somewhat complicated, time-consuming. and uncertain tasks. In this paper, as a tool to minimize the uncertainties and errors the neural network is applied to the concrete mix design. Input data to train and test the neural network are obtained numerically from the results of design following the concrete standard specifications of Korea. The 28-days compressive strengths which are variate according to the uncertainties and errors are considered. The results show that neural networks have a strong potential as a tool for concrete mix design.

Potato diseases, especially mosaics and leaf roll, appear to reduce potato yield in Korea more than any other factor. A seed potato certification program was established at the Alpine Experiment Station (AES) in 1961 to produce high quality seed potatoes for distribution to Korean farmers. The present program for production of certified seed of Namjak (Irish Cobbler), the only variety recommended for spring plantings, is outlined. In 1976, approximately 10,000 MT of certified grade Namjak seed was produced by members of two Seed Producers Cooperatives in the Daekwanryeong area for distribution by the Office of Seed Production and Distribution (OSPD). The seed was inspected and certified by officers of the National Agricultural Products Inspection Office (NAPIO). Although the quality of the certified seed is far superior to that used by many farmers, the supply planted less than 1/5 of the 1977 potato crop. Certified seed of Shimabara, the variety recommended for autumn plantings, is not produced in Korea. The yield response of virus infected seed to improved cultural practices is poor. Therefore, an increase in potato acreage and yields appears to be possible only if more good quality seed is used by Korean farmers. A two or three fold increase in seed supply would be desirable. The volume of seed could be increased by expanding the production area and by improving yield in seed fields. More land is available in the alpine area and good seed potatoes could be grown in other parts of Korea. Planting better quality seeds and using better cultural pracitces would improve seed yields. Several techniques could be used to improve the quality of elite seed produced at AES. Changes in seed potato certification program should be made so that healthy seed stocks of new varieties can be released rapidly.
