A sprayable waterproofing membrane which is composed of polymer-based material is relatively easy to install due to its construction method comparing with sheet-type membranes. And a sprayable waterproofing membrane has very similar material composition to the TSL which is for a permanent support. In this study, material composition of the sprayable waterproofing membrane was changed to enhance structural properties of membrane while maintaining waterproofing performance. In order to compare with a previous research for the TSL, series of tests were performed according to the performance criteria used for permanent support material (TSL) by EFNARC (2008). From the test result, the structural performance of the sprayable waterproofing membrane considered in this study showed a performance that could be used as a permanent support material.

A sprayable waterproofing membrane which has relatively high adhesive property onto concrete enables faster construction with better waterproof performance compared with a conventional sheet membrane. However, the sprayable waterproofing membrane is a recently developed material and its performance and behavior with structures are not sufficiently reported. Therefore, in this study, the shear behavior of sprayable waterproofing membrane was numerically analyzed using the results of previous studies of composite shotcrete with sprayable waterproofing membrane. From the previous study, shear behavior of shotcrete with sprayable waterproofing membrane was different from shotcrete case and there was a limitation to express the behavior of the interface in general shear strength method. Therefore, in this study, the direct shear test was numerically simulated using two contact models, and then the best suitable method to express the shear behavior of the sprayable waterproofing membrane was suggested.

This study uses traditional lacquer techniques to coat the metal surface and evaluates its physical properties to check the applicability of the lacquer coating. For this purpose, a total of six specimens were produced by setting the variation conditions for the number of times (1, 2, 3) and the heating temperature (120℃, 150℃) using SS275 metal(60*60 mm) and 'Wonju lacquer'. For analysis, chromaticity measurements, contact angle/surface energy measurements, Chemical Resistance, and cross-cut tests were used. The analysis showed that the corrosivity was improved and the adhesion of lacquer to the metal surface was excellent. There was no significant change in contact angle/surface energy. Also, there was no significant difference in color. Through this study, it was confirmed that lacquer on metal surfaces improves waterproofing and has a anticorrosion effect. We could also check the proper number of lacquer and heating temperature. Additional physical characteristics such as hardness and wear rate should be studied. It is also necessary to study how lacquer can be painted with a certain thickness.

홍수기에 안전하고 정확한 유량측정을 통하여 물관리에 필요한 기초수문자료를 확보하고자 한국수자원공사에서 1993년도부터 홍수유량측정기술 확보를 위한 연구를 시작하였다. 그간의 연구성과를 바탕으로 1999년도에 하천의 유속을 비접촉식으로 측정할 수 있는 홍수용 전자파표면유속계를 개발하여 특허등록하였고 그와 동시에 이의 상품화를 추진하여 2010년도까지 75대를 보급하여 실무에서 이용하고 있다. 이동식인 홍수용 전자파표면유속계를 바탕으로 2001년도에는 고정식 실시간 홍수유량측정측정시스템을 개발하여 특허등록하였고, 이 시제품을 현재 용담 수자원시험유역의 동향지점에서 시험운영하고 있다. 또한, 현장 유량측정실무자들의 홍수용 전자파표면유속계 개선요구에 따라 편각용 전자파표면유속계 시제품을 개발하였으며, 이는 임의의 한 지점에 설치한 한 대의 장비로 좌우 여러 측선의 유속을 동시에 측정할 수 있는 다점 측정기능을 갖도록 성능을 개선하였다. 이에 따라 홍수시 유량측정에 소요되는 시간이 줄어들어 신속하게 유량측정을 완료할 수 있는 계기를 마련하였다. 이와 더불어 유속측정 범위를 확장하여 홍수시의 고유속 뿐만 아니라 0.5 m/s 이하의 저유속까지 측정할 수 있는 범용 전자파표면유속계의 시제품을 추가로 개발하였다. 이 장비는 최저유속 0.03 m/s의 측정을 실내시험을 통하여 입증하였다. 범용 전자파표면유속계는 상품화 시제품의 개발을 목표로 기존 시제품의 현장시험을 통하여 현장적용상의 문제점에 대한 해결에 주력하였다. 첫째, 평갈수용 전자파표면유속계의 사용편의를 개선하기 위하여 소형화 및 경량화를 추진하였고, 이를 위하여 사용주파수를 기존의 10 GHz에서 24 GHz로 변경함으로써 $35{\times}35\;cm$ 크기의 기존안테나를 $22{\times}22\;cm$ 크기로 소형화하였으며 송수신부의 무게는 기존 18 kg에서 3.3 kg으로 혁신적으로 줄이는데 성공하였다. 이를 위하여 안테나는 기존의 반사형안테나에서 도파관슬롯배열안테나로 변경하였다. 둘째, 측정값의 안정화를 위하여 안테나의 특성을 개선하여 부엽(side-lobe) 레벨 30 dB 이하 그리고 전후방비(front-back ratio) 50 dB 이하로 개선하여 안테나가 지향하는 방향 이외의 위치에서 반사되는 불필요한 신호를 줄였다. 또한 적응형 이득제어(adaptive gain control)기법의 채택으로 미소 신호에 대한 안정적 측정 및 과다 신호에 대한 능동적 감쇄를 할 수 있도록 시스템을 구성하여 전 유속범위에 대한 안정적 측정을 가능토록 설계 및 제작하였다. 셋째, 자가점검 기능을 탑재하여 유속측정 전에 기기의 상태에 대한 self test기능을 통하여 측정자가 기기의 상태를 사전에 파악 가능토록함으로써, 기기 오작동에 대한 능동 대처할 수 있도록 하였다. 이외에도 저전력 회로설계를 통하여 배터리 사용시간을 확장하였고, 기존의 전자파표면유속계가 가지고 있던 방습 및 방수에도 내성을 갖는 제품으로 설계하였으며 스마트기기를 이용한 무선측정 및 세련된 디자인 등 사용자의 요구사항을 충분히 반영하였다.

In a range of forms, such as latex, water-soluble polymer, liquid resin, and monomer, polymer dispersions have been widely used in the construction industry as cement modifiers because of their excellent properties, such as acid-resistance, water-proofness, and good ductility in mortar and concrete. Polymer cement slurry (polymer-modified slurry) is made of cement and polymer dispersions, with a high polymer-cement ratio of 50% or more. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the water permeability and drying shrinkage of polymer cement mortar (polymer-modified mortar) and cement concrete coated by polymer cement slurry. The polymer cement mortar and cement concrete are prepared with various polymer types, polymer-cement ratios and curing methods, and are tested for water permeability, drying shrinkage and strength. The test results showed thatthe weight of permeable water of polymer cement mortar decreases with an increase in the polymer-cement ratio, reaching a minimum at the polymer-cement ratio of 20%. In particular, the weight of permeable water of St/BA-modified mortar with a polymer-cement ratio of 20% coated with St/BA-modified slurry is about 1/55 that of unmodified mortar. The EVA- and St/BA-modified slurries coated on cement concrete have about 4 or 5 times higher drying shrinkage compared to cement concrete. The strength of polymer cement mortars tends to increase with a higher polymer-cement ratio, and is considerably higher than that of unmodified mortar. It is thus concluded that polymer cement mortars coated by polymer cement slurry are effective for industrial application, and have superior properties such as waterproofness and strengths, compared with conventional cement mortar.

A spray-applied waterproofing membrane which consists of polymers has a relatively higher constructability and adhesion than the conventional sheet-type waterproofing materials. Additionally, the spray-applied waterproofing membrane generally shows a waterproofing ability as a composite structure with shotcrete or concrete lining. Because its purpose is waterproofing at the structure, structural effects were not well reported than waterproofing abilities. In this study, structural effects of the membrane-attached concrete lining were evaluated using 3-point bending test by the numerical method. From the analysis, a load-displacement behavior of the concrete lining and fracturing energy after yielding were compared with various conditions. Consequently, concrete lining with spray-applied waterproofing membrane shows higher flexural strength and fracturing energy than the single-layer concrete lining.

As the pollution of water resources deteriorates due to industrialization and urbanization, it is difficult to supply clean water through a water treatment method using chlorine. Therefore, the introduction of advanced water treatment facilities using ozone is on the increase. However, epoxy which is used as waterproofing and anticorrosives and stainless steel used in conventional waterproofing and anti-corrosive methods have deteriorated because of the strong oxidizing power of ozone, causing problems such as leaking. Moreover, it even causes the durability degradation of a concrete. Therefore, in this study, metal spraying system was used as the means of constructing a metal panel with excellent ozone resistance and chemical resistance which is an easier method than an existing construction method. Ozone resistance was evaluated in accordance with the type of metal sprayed coatings to develop a finishing method which can prevent the concrete structure of water treatment facilities from deterioration. Furthermore, electrochemical stability in actual sewage treatment plant environment was evaluated. Experimental results showed that Ti has superior ozone resistance after spraying and the electrochemical stability in the sewage treatment plant environment showed that Ti has the highest polarization resistance of $403.83k{\cdot}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$, which ensures high levels of durability.

Generally, poly-urea is widely used as waterproof coating material due to its superior adhesiveness, elongation capacity, and permeability resistance. In addition, it can be quickly and easily applied on structure surfaces using spray application. Since it hardens in about 30 seconds after application, its construction efficiency is very high and its usage as a special functional material is also excellent. However, currently, poly-urea is mostly used as waterproof coating material and the researches on its usage as a retrofitting material is lacking at best. Therefore, basic studies on the use of poly-urea as a general structural retrofitting material are needed urgently. The objective of this study is to develop most optimum poly-urea composition for structure retrofitting purpose. Moreover, the structural strengthening capacity of the developed poly-urea is evaluated through flexural capacity experiments on RC beams and RC slabs. From the results of the flexural test of poly-urea strengthened RC beam and slab specimens, the poly-urea and concrete specimen showed monolithic behavior where ductility and ultimate strength of the poly-urea strengthened specimen showed slight increase. However, the doubly reinforced specimens with FRP sheet and poly-urea showed lower capacity than that of the specimen reinforced only with FRP sheet.
