Regulation of Escape and fire-prevention of Building of South Korea were enacted as a part of building codes in 1962. Since it was enacted, the law has gone through many changes. In this study, evaluated the fire safety of the law about the case of a hotel that the fire risk are expected to be higher whenever it was changed. As a result, the current law has gotten better in tire safety since it was enacted. However, especially it could be confirmed that the evacuation safety is insufficient in the lower level of hotel building. In the case of accommodation, because the occupants become aware of fire lately, they have not enough time to escape. Therefore, this study suggests that it is needed to come up with an effective counterplan about the interior finish materials, fire door and fire compartments that the smoke layer descending time is longer.

In commercial transactions of energy sources using hydrogen charging stations, high-accuracy flow meters are needed to prevent accidents such as overcharging due to inaccurate measurements and to ensure transparency in hydrogen commercial transactions through accurate measurements. This research developed a Corioli-type flowmeter prototype and conducted a risk assessment to prevent accidents during a process change comparison experiment for existing charging stations to verify the measurement performance. A process change section was defined for the installation of measurement facilities for empirical experiments and HAZOP was conducted. In addition, JSA was also conducted to secure the safety of experimenters, such as preventing valve mis-opening during empirical experiments. Measures were established to improve the risk factors derived through HAZOP, and work procedures were established to minimize human errors and ensure the safety of workers through JSA. The design change and system manufacturing for the installation of the metering system were completed by reflecting the risk assessment results, and safety could be confirmed through the performance comparison test of the developed meter prototype. The developed prototype flow meter showed a total of 30 flow measurements under the operating conditions of 70 MPa, and the average error was -1.58% to 3.96%. Such a metering error was analyzed to have the same performance as a flow meter installed and operated for commercial use.

현재의 화재안전기준에서 규정하는 화재감지기의 배치방법은 면적에 따라 규정된 숫자를 적정하게 배치하는 수준이다. 이 기준은 과학적인 근거는 가지고 있지 못하다. 외국의 기준을 도입하여 그에 따라서 설치하고 있을 뿐이다. 소방시설을 설계하는 방법에는 화재안전기준과 같이 명문화 된 규정에 따르는 규범위주설계(Prescriptive-Based)와 화재역학, 구조역학, 재료역학, 유체역학, 열역학 등 공학적 지식을 바탕으로 하는 성능위주설계(Performance-Based Design)가 있다. 현재로서는 성능위주설계가 활성화 되지 않았지만, 최근 소방시설공사업법은 성능위주설계방법을 이용하여 소방시설을 설계 할 수 있도록 개정('05. 8. 4)되었으며 그 시행령('07, 1. 24)에서 성능위주설계를 적용할 특정소방 대상물의 범위를 정하고 있다. 이러한 시점에서 자동화재탐지설비의 화재감지기를 최적의 위치 및 거리에 설치하기 위하여 그에 대한 공식의 도입과 공식을 Software로 계산할 수 있도록 시뮬레이터를 제작하여 계산하고 규범위주설계에 따라 배치한 화재감지기의 상태와 비교 분석하며 향후 성능위주설계 방법으로서 정착시키기 위하여 연구를 시도하였다.

In the revised 2019 Guidelines for Facility Safety and Maintenance, the existing safety-oriented facility evaluations have expanded from performance evaluations to added durability and serviceability. This expansion reflects the life cycle of facilities and the service abilities of facilities, which are becoming a global issue. However, since the performance evaluation of facilities is linked to repairing and reinforcement, the related researches such as the correlation of each performance and the target performance related to the decision on priority are necessary. In this study, through the analysis of historical data of existing facility safety evaluation results centered on the retaining earth wall installed in domestic road facilities, the appropriate target performance was suggested for the maintenance of the facility based on the revised performance evaluation. Also, the performances on the actual two retaining walls were evaluated for example and analyzed the verification of the target performance. Besides, new indicators were presented to add serviceability to the performance evaluation of retaining earth walls consisting of safety and durability.

In the past, expressways focused on mobility. However, the paradigm of expressways fuction today has been changed from fast expressways to safe expressways as people's quality of living and consciousness level heightened. In 2012, 3,550 traffic accidents occurred on expressways and 371 people died. The fatality rate of traffic accidents on expressways is almost twice that on general national roads. This study developed accident forecast models (safety performance functions) based on the number of traffic accidents and traffic volumes on six major lines on expressways. It is difficult to forecast safety performance functions for each expressway line because the lines and the scales of expressways are different from each other; therefore, integrated safety performance functions of six lines were determined first, and the coefficients, which can correct the traffic accidents on each line, were calculated. It is believed that this study will contribute in the safer management of expressways by being used as basic information in the establishment of traffic safety strategies for each expressway line in prevention of traffic accidents. Moreover, more studies would be required in the future, which would suggest reliable accident forecasts by calculating correction coefficients by line through integrated models by groups dependent on the characteristics of each line.
