Recently, as tunnel structures are getting older and decrepit, many tunnel inspections are carried out for evaluating the tunnel state and safety. But, because there is no exact standard for tunnel state and safety, depending on subjective decision, the new standard to assess the tunnel state is required. The existing standard including mainly the assessment of the state of tunnel lining is not considered the characteristics of tunnel as underground structures. Also, the item of assessment and process of grading and classifying the state of tunnel is not objective and systemetic. In this study, new standard for assessment of tunnel state is presented for improving the problems in evaluating the tunnel state and safety. In the new standard, the new items of assessment including geotechnical condition were selected and graded, the process in classifying the tunnel state is quantitative for objective assessment for tunnel state. This new standard and method is practically used in effective safety inspection and diagnosis and tunnel maintenance.

This study was performed to propose the sewer defect scoring, and grading protocols for sewer condition assessment. For this, sewer defect scoring methods were comparatively analyzed and reviewed for four international condition assessment protocols, which are established based on WRc manual. As a result, we proposed a new protocol for sewer condition assessment, in which characteristics of sewer pipes are considered by segment. In reference to the PIM-3, the extent of ground subsidence was adopted to be of importance, and renewal scores increased in accordance with weighting of defects causing structural backfill materials. Also, defect grades of 'Hole' were extended to 5 levels of the grading, and 'Surface Damage' was excluded in defect assessment. The addition of 'Buckling' resulted in reduction of weights in 'Surface Damage' and 'Lining Defects'.

근래 환경의 중요성이 크게 인식되면서 하천의 수질관리에 대해서도 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 오염된 하천의 수질을 개선하기 위한 방법 중에 배출 오염원을 삭감시키는 환경기초시설이나 댐과 같은 저수구조물에서 양질의 용수를 방류하여 희석시킴으로써 하천의 수질오염을 개선할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 하천수질을 개선시키는 과정에서 희석을 위한 저수지의 방류량을 필요유량으로 간주하였으며 일정 수질농도를 지속적으로 지니고 있는 자연하천의 유입량과 이때 어느 대상지점의 목표수질등급을 만족시킬 수 있는 저수구조물에서의 인위적 조정이 가능한 필요유량의 관계를 연구하였다. 연구대상 지역은 금강 본류와 본류로 유입하는 갑천유역을 대상으로 하였다. 즉, 갑천의 확률갈수유량을 3등급과 4등급으로 가정하고, 이들 유량이 금강본류로 유입되련, 금강본류와 미호천합류 바로 전의 금강하류지점 목표수질을 2등급이라 하였을 때, 이를 만족할 수 있는 금강본류의 필요유량을 산정하고자 하였다. 이때 갑천유역의 일강우량자료는 기존 Markov 연쇄의 상태모형을 개선해 모의하였고, 강우-유출 모형으로는 NWS-PC모형을 이용하였는데 컴플렉스 혼합 진화기법으로 매개변수들을 보정하여 확률갈수유량을 산정하였다. 다음에 QUAL2E를 이용하여 목표수질을 만족하는 희석 목적의 유랑을 구하여 필요유량으로 간주하였다. 결과를 살펴보면, 유입되는 갑천의 확률갈수유량들에 대하여 대청조정지댐에서 방류량이 목표수질을 만족시키기 위해서는 $0.5\~2.5$배정도 더 유입되어야 함을 알 수 있었다.

This study was intended to evaluate the objective landscape of rural region using an additive integration index method in the Seondong region of Gochang-gun, Jeollabuk-do, Korea. This study consisted of the following three steps. First, this study developed an additive integration index calculation model for landscape assessment based on indicators and weight to each space type in accordance with three landscape fields which were developed by the expert Delphi method. Second, this study used NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and permeable area rate, which were available from high resolution satellite image, to calculate the green naturality degree, area rate, and building coverage respectively. Third, this study has calculated the landscape assessment index of rural regions using an additive integration index method made of assessment data and weight for each indicator. This study has found the following results: 1) landscape level was very poor in all 6 types of space, marking grade five; 2) while the highest level of natural landscape and mixed landscape was grade two, that of artificial landscape was grade five; 3) based on objective landscape, grade five showed the highest frequency, and grade one, two, three, and four followed in that order.

In this research, a River Recreation Index Model (RRIM) was developed to provide sufficient information on the water quality of rivers to the public in order to secure safety of publics. River Recreation Index (RRI) is an integrated water quality information for recreation activities in rivers and expressed as the point from 0 to 100. The proposed RRIM consisted of two sub models: Fecal Coliform Model (FCM) and Water Quality Index Model (WQIM). FCM predicted Fecal Coliform Grade (FCG) using a logistic regression and WQIM synthesized water quality parameters of, DO, pH, turbidity and chlorophyll a into Water Quality Index (WQI). FCG and WQI were integrated into RRI by the integrating algorithm. The proposed model was applied to upstream of Gangjeong Weir in Nakdong River, and compared with Real Time Water Quality Index (RTWQI) which is the existing water quality information system for recreation use. The results show that calculated RRI reflected change of integrated water quality parameters well. Especially chlorophyll a showed Pearson correlation coefficient -0.85 with RRI. Also, RRIM produced more conservative index than RTWQI because RRI was calculated considering uncertainty of water quality criteria. Further, RRI showed especially low values when fecal coliform was predicted as low grade.

Currently, the inspection of bridges is conduced for the parts or elements of a bridges and the results of inspection are depicted for those local elements. Therefore, the representative rating of a bridge as a whole bridge system is not presented. The purpose of the present study is to purpose a reasonable method which can yield realistic representative rating for an actual bridge. The purpose method consists of two steps, i.e, visual inspection step and safety assessment step. The importance of members is considered by introducing the weighting factors and the number of spans is also considered to obtain the representative rating of a whole bridge system. The purpose method may be efficiently used to calculate the realistic representative rating bridge structures.

To evaluate the sustainability assessment of eco-tourism resources, the assessment of Upo wetland was conducted by defining mathematical assessment models, by developing assessment indicators and by calculating the weight of main factors affecting on the sustainability through questionnaires analysis of 135 eco-tourism experts group. After that, the current sustainability grade level for Upo wetland was confirmed, and grade-level enhancement measures on each items were proposed. Although, this paper was focused on Upo wetland, but it is meaningful to prepare for the foundation in the sense of assessing scientifically and systematically the sustainability by providing concrete research model and method for the sustainability assessment of eco-tourism resources.

한국농어촌공사에서는 과학적이고 체계적인 농업기반시설 및 용수관리로 재해를 예방하고 물관리의 효율성 증대를 위한 유지관리 종합정보시스템인 농업기반시설관리시스템을 구축하여 운영중에 있다. 한국농어촌공사는 2012년부터 저수지별 일공급량을 측정하여 기록 관리하고 있어, 저수지의 수위차와 공급량을 사용하여 저수지의 일유입량을 산정 할 수 있는 체계를 구축하였고 저수지 종합건전성 평가를 위해 이 자료를 사용하였다. 수량부문은 수문학적으로 하천환경 및 수생태계에 민감한 영향을 끼치는 인자들로 지표를 구성하였다. 선정된 지표는 High Flow, Low Flow, Seasonality, Zero Flow, Variability로 구성하였다. 수질부문은 자연적 요인과 사회·경제적 요인 기준에 의한 분류를 통해 저수지의 건전성 상태를 파악할 수 있는 지표를 선정하였다. 자연적 요인은 환경부의 수질환경기준에 제시된 항목 중 저수지 건전성을 대표할 수 있는 수온, DO, COD, SS, TN, TP 및 TOC를 선정하였다. 농업용 저수지 수량·수질을 고려한 수환경 평가체계 적용을 위해 적누, 이담, 송고 저수지를 선정하였다. 3개 저수지를 대상으로 수량, 수질 부문으로 나누어 부문별 건전성 및 종합건전성 평가를 수행하였다. 선정된 지표의 분석단위를 통일시키기 위하여 표준화를 수행하였으며 자료의 왜곡정도가 큰 경우에는 로그변환을 취하여 표준화를 수행하였다. 가중치 적용은 주관적인 견해가 들어갈 수 있는 전문가의 설문에 의한 방법보다는 수학적 방법을 이용한 주성분과 엔트로피 가중치 방법을 적용하였다. 최종적으로 산정된 지수에 따라 하천별 현황을 주제별, 시기별로 검토하였으며 객관적이고 이해가 쉽게 5개 등급으로 등급분류를 해 저수지별 건전성 정도를 쉽게 파악할 수 있도록 하였다.

The SCS-CN (Soil Conservation Service-Curve Number) method has been practically applied for estimating the effective precipitation. The CN is used to be determined according to the land use condition based on the US standard. However, there are two distinctive differences between U.S. and Korean land use conditions: mountainous (forest) and rice paddy area that cover more than 70% of the Korean territory. The previous work proposed to use 79 for rice paddy area, regardless of the soil type. Because US SCS's goal was originally to increase crops, the SCS classification standard provides only for woods and there are no criteria to distinguish the wood and forest. To determine the CN for forest, alternatively the U.S. Forest Service criteria have been employed in practice considering hydrologic condition class. In this study, we investigated the change of the forest CN using the observed rainfall - runoff data within the target area. The results indicated that the CN for forest was suitable for HC=1, and the corresponding CNs were redetermined between 54 and 55.
