The representative design elements of the road geometric structure are longitudinal slope, horizontal curve radius, super elevation, and transition curve. According to the function of a road, the design standards of these elements is applied by diverse combinations of them. This study divided expressway into homogeneous segments based on longitudinal slope and horizontal curve radius. And then, data required for analysis were matched to each segment, and the safety performance function was built by using the established data. crash modification factors which can explain traffic accident exposure rate were calculated. When the threshold value of horizontal curve radius R=1,000 m was set to 1.0, the crash modification factors at R=300 m was calculated as 1.33, which means that the accident exposure rate is increased by 33%. When the threshold value of the longitudinal slope 0% was set to 1.0, the crash modification factors demonstrated that the accident exposure rate decreases on the upward slope and the accident exposure rate increases on the downward slope. The results of this study can be used as basic information in the design of expressway geometries during the improvement or the construction of expressways.

Some road charges toll to finance the cost or to manage traffic congestion. With a growth of PPI projects, toll roads would be increase continuously. Tolls have a considerable influence on user's route choice, and sometimes can affect to the departure time and even to mode choice. For modelling toll roads, user's WTP or VOT has an important role and it is general that VOT is equivalent to the wages of workers. The current way of modelling technique yields various toll price elasticity from low to high. When there exist few alternative routes, unrealistic result that all traffic assigned to some shortest path may occur. The toll price elasticity can be influenced by alternative route and congestion level, but some result shows nearly unrealistic patterns. The model to forecast more realistic toll road demand is very essential for estimating toll revenue, choice of optimal toll level & collecting location and establishing toll charge strategy. This paper reviewed some literatures about toll road modelling and tested case study about the assignment technique with different VOT. The case study shows that using different VOT yields more realistic result than the use of single VOT.

Cities are continued to be highly advanced and metropolitanized. Lands adjacent to road make entry/exit connection increase along with construction of facilities for various purposes. However, in the absence of specific installation standards of entry and exit connection, inappropriate access location, types of access, and operation methods are deteriorating the level of traffic services at existing roads and intersections. Therefore, in order to minimize the traffic impact from entrances connected to minor arterial roads and colletor roads, first, this study re-established the waiting length in the intersection of upstream and downstream and length required for changing lanes and between entrance/exit and connection, considering the road and traffic environment in contact with the entrance. Second, it is suggested that the operation method depending on the connection type and whether to install left turn lane and acceleration and deceleration lane can be determined quantitatively by relation with the service level of nearby intersection after calculating the threshold amount of business site through negative social cost, which is the difference between the installation cost of the left turn lane and the acceleration and deceleration lane according to the type of access to the entrance and exit.

Recently, BIM has attracted attention as a technology to improve the construction productivity. The BIM standards to be applied to the BIM project are necessary for using or connecting the current 2D-based drawing standards. To develop the standard for BIM-based QTO and cost, this paper focused on using QDBEx, which was applied to road project cost management and connecting QDBEx with IFC, which is the BIM data delivery format. The IFC schema was evaluated to determine if it is possible to use the converts to the QDBEx XML file. As a result, 66% of the whole was available to connect directly, and 17% was available to connect through the processing of instance. The remaining 17% was evaluated to determine if it was available to connect. In the future, improvements in the schema will be suggested based on these results.

It is usual for the carbon dioxide emission to be calculated by official energy consumption statistics produced from a number of specialized industrial process such as refinery, power plant etc. The aim of this research was to evaluate potential of cadastral system in monitoring carbon dioxide emitted from land use. An empirical study for a cadastral category was conducted to demonstrate how a on-site measurement can be used to assist in estimating the carbon dioxide emission in terms of land use specific settings. The cadastral category based analysis made it possible to identify area-wide patterns of carbon dioxide emission, which cannot be acquired by traditional Government statistics. It was possible to identify successively increasing trends in the human-related parcels such as housing land while decreasing trends of carbon dioxide in sink parcels(eg. forest). The results indicate that the cadastral parcel could be used not only as a tool to monitor carbon dioxide emission, but also as an evidence to restrict initiation of development activities causing negative influence to carbon dioxide emission such as road construction. As a result, the research findings have established the new concept of "carbon dioxide emission monitoring based on cadastral category", proposed as an initial aim of this paper.

호우로 인한 도시 지역의 침수는 빗물받이의 능력 부족, 우수관로 용량 부족 등 다양한 요인에 의하여 발생한다. 구체적으로 빗물받이 능력 부족으로 인한 침수는 노면에 떨어진 우수가 빗물받이로 유입하지 못하고 지표면을 유하하여 저지대에 빗물이 모여 발생하게 되며 우수관로의 용량부족은 설계 강우 이상의 호우가 발생하거나 하류 배수위 영향으로 인하여 우수관로 내 만관이 발생하여 맨홀 월류로 인하여 침수가 발생하게 된다. 도시지역의 침수를 경감하기 위해서는 구조적, 비구조적인 대책을 마련할 수 있으며 본 연구에서는 국부적인 노면 침수가 발생하는 주요 도로 주변부의 침수발생을 효율적으로 제어하기 위한 구조적 대책 중 하나인 UHPC 저류침투시설 도입에 따른 홍수저감 효과를 수리수문학적 분석하는 방법을 개발하였다. 분석 절차는 ① 대상지역 현황 분석을 위한 관망도, 수치지형도, 토지피복도, 토양도 등 관련 자료의 조사 ② 침수 발생 현황 및 시설물 설치에 따른 효과분석을 위한 강우분석 ③ 주요 호우 시 대상지역 침수발생 현황 분석 ④ 저수지 홍수추적 기법을 활용한 저류침투시설 도입효과 계산 ⑤ 주요 호우별 홍수조절효과 분석결과를 기초로 저류침투시설 도입에 따른 침수 저감 효과를 2차원으로 검토의 5개 단계로 이루어진다. 노면을 따라서 유하 또는 맨홀 월류에 의해 저류 침투시설로 유입하는 우수의 홍수조절 효과 분석은 연구에서 개발한 스프레드시트 기반 저수지 홍수추적 기법을 활용하여 분석하였으며 강우-유출량 중 10 %가 시설물로 유입하는 가정 조건하에 시설물로 유입하는 우수의 저류-침투-방류를 동시에 고려하여 계산하였다. 다만, 저류침투시설로 유입하는 노면 유출수의 정량적 수치는 자연적 요인 및 다양한 제약 조건에 따라 큰 차이가 있을 수 있으며 불확실성이 높으므로 노면 유출수의 저류침투시설 유입량의 추가적인 연구가 필요하다.

Infrastructure which mandatory in human life causes large environmental loads when they are being installed and maintained. Especially, maintenance is performed over a long period of time. Also, there is a limit to suggest a reliable estimated value because environmental loads are changed according to methods of maintenance and periods. In this study, we developed a Environmental Load Estimating Model to evaluate value and plan as soon as possible in the Early Design Phases while maintaining a tunnel. To estimate environmental loads by using brief design information, we analyze a calculation methodology of environmental loads in maintenance phases. Furthermore, we apply periods of maintenance work and maintenance factors considered a characteristic of long-term maintenance. Finally, a main purpose is that this program makes all users estimate environmental loads in maintenance phases easily and quickly. Accordingly, it is considered that the Environmental Load Estimating Model offer assistance to eco-friendly maintenance of the road and tunnel construction.
