The ultimate goal of architecture is to construct a building through design and supervision. According to this circumstance, architectural education divided into two part ; design and construction. However, these two processes have to be one program for better education. In this aspect, steel housing program could be a desirable one because of its structural(bearing wall) system and relative short construction schedule. In KUT architectural program, steel housing has been one of the most effective and important for about ten years. In this research, the contents(s/w) and running process of this program and practice lab(h/w) will be introduced with detail. And this study could be a good guideline for a better combination program with theory and practice in architectural engineering field.

농작업 시에 가장 빈번하게 일어나는 위험한 농기계 관련 사고는 전도사고로 트랙터의 전복이 꼽히고 있다. 따라서 트랙터의 전복을 유발하는 주원인인 무게중심의 측정이 중요시 되고 있다. 지금까지 사용해 왔던 북미와 유럽, 일본 등의 선진 농기계 업체들이 사용하고 있는 트랙터 무게중심 측정방법(ISO 789-6 : OECD code2, 작도법)은 정밀성과 신뢰성이 다소 결여되어 이를 정확히 측정하기 위한 새로운 방법 및 알고리즘의 개발이 시급한 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 트랙터 무게 중심을 보다 정확히 측정할 수 있는 방법을 개발하고 이를 ISO에 NP(New Proposal)제안 과정을 거쳐 ISO 개정을 위한 기초연구로 수행되었다. 트랙터 무게중심 측정을 위한 ISO 789-6의 경우 작도법으로 시험하도록 되어 있으나, 본 연구에서는 무게중심을 계산할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하고, 극좌표계산방식으로 측정된 값을 프로그램에 직접 입력하는 방법을 개발하여 신뢰성과 정밀성을 높일 수 있도록 하였다. 프로그램의 개발은 ISO(OECD) 방법에 대해 계산식을 개발하고 4개의 좌표가 교차하는 좌표와, 트랙터 후방을 들어 올렸을 때의 끝점 좌표, 전방을 들어 올렸을 때의 끝점 좌표 등을 구하는 자동 알고리즘을 개발하고, 중심 위치는 시험방법 및 트랙터의 제원에 따른 치수와 중량 데이터를 측정하여 입력하면 자동으로 계산이 되도록 하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 방법과 기존 ISO 789-6(작도법)을 비교한 결과 보다 신뢰성 있는 결과를 얻을 수 있었으며, 이를 ISO에 NP제안을 위한 합리적인 시험방법임을 알 수 있었다. 개정작업이 완료될 시에 이 방법을 농기계 업체에 보급함으로써 보다 안전한 농기계 설계 및 제작에 기여하고 농민의 안전사고 예방에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.

This study was conducted to find out the appropriateness of knowledge and education of occupational therapists' community rehabilitation jobs for community care. A questionnaire was developed to find out the job knowledge level of occupational therapists working in the community and the appropriateness of school education and maintenance education, and the validity and reliability were verified through a preliminary survey. Based on the verified questionnaire, a survey was conducted on occupational therapists working in the community. As a result, overall, the average score was low in the level of knowledge about the job of occupational therapists engaged in the community and the appropriateness of school education and maintenance education. Through this study, we were able to know the necessary knowledge in the practice of community occupational therapy, understand the level of knowledge retention of occupational therapists working in the community, and learn about the appropriateness of school education and maintenance education. Referring to the results of this study, if a systematic education program related to community occupational therapy jobs is developed in existing medical institution-centered education, the job knowledge level of occupational therapists in the community can be raised. Amid the rapidly changing times and the pandemic of infectious diseases, additional research is needed on job-related knowledge and education corresponding to various occupations in charge of rehabilitation in the community.
