Lots of various utilities are buried under the surface of the earth. The effective handling of the underground utilities is becoming the big subject and project for the harmonious management and administration of the city. To detect the position and depth of buried underground utilities, GPR and Induced EM surveys are commonly used. However, they have limitations, such as shallow skin-depth and non-availability in the areas where subsurface materials are not homogeneous and are compose of clays and/or salts and gravels. The aim of this study is to find the efficient geophysical method which can overcome these limitations. For this purpose, various geophysical mehods were applied in the site of poor geotechnical environment.

본 연구는 농업지역의 가뭄 발생에 대하여 활용되는 관정의 효율적 관리를 목표로 우선관리가 필요한 취약지역을 선정하는 방안을 수립하였다. 특히 한국에서는 논 위주의 농업 생산기반정비가 진행되어 왔으나 최근 경제성장과 소득증대에 따른 농산물 소비 구조의 변화로 다양한 밭 작물경작이 증가하여 밭 관개시설물에 대한 정비가 요구되고 있다. 따라서 가뭄 대응을 위한 밭작물의 용수공급 시설물인 관정에 대한 취약성 평가를 통하여 관리의 목표와 우선관리 지역의 선정이 필요하다. 가뭄에 대한 관정 취약성 평가는 최근 널리 사용되는 다기준의사결정 기법인 TOPSIS를 적용하였으며, 한국 전역 158개의 시, 군을 평가대상으로 한다. 평가 인자는 관정능력 및 효율에 긍정적 영향을 주는 강수량, 지하수위, 관정 당 양수량과 부정적 영향을 주는 경지면적, 연속무강우일수, 민간관정 비율을 선정하였다. 평가결과로부터 관정 당 양수량과 상수도 보급율이 관정 효율 취약성 평가를 통한 우선 관리 순위선정에 주요한 영향을 주는 것으로 분석되었다.

Pavement markings delineate driver's sight and attentions at day and night. Retroreflectivities of the pavement markings are known to be affected by some factors such as geometrical characteristics of road sections, marking materials, traffic volumes, weather, and so on. Therefore, pavement markings would have different retroreflectivities place by place. The objective of this paper is to contend that there are rises and falls of retroreflectivity of specific geometrical characteristics of road section based on observed field data. For this purpose, retroreflectivities of yellow continued lines and white skip lines were measured on the freeway sections from Hanam to Nami interchanges. And then, the sections are categorized based on road geometric or facility types. From this study, it may be concluded that there exist considerably lower retroreflectivity trends of pavement markings at sharply curved sections, climbing lane sections, ramp sections, and tunnel sections than averaged retroreflectivity trends on freeway sections. This may leads to the necessity of differential pavement marking managements.

The adoption of ubiquitous technologies is increasing for the realization of new effective u-City services. u-City is defined as a next-generation informatization city that can innovate a city's various functions, such as improving the welfare of the citizenry, ensuring safety based on systematic urban management, improving the quality of lives, and increasing convenience in city life, by merging cutting-edge information and telecommunication infrastructures and ubiquitous information services with urban space. There is therefore a need to recognize that a successful u-City implementation strategy involves developing the previous UIS into a ubiquitous technology-based UIS and integrating UIS's various urban informations with effective u-City services. In this paper, for UIS-based u-City implementation, the intelligent integration model of urban spatial information based on interoperability is proposed.

Aging educational facility shall be managed and maintained through integrated service perspectives, in consideration of functions of each facility to provide safe and comfortable environment, rather than temporarily fixing/repairing problems. For doing this, it is a must to firstly understand the limitation of highly biased performance-based maintenance practice, which is a most common type applied at present, and therefore to establish maintenance system that reflects the functions and characteristics of maintenance service that a facility was designed with. Therefore, the objective of this study is to find items that have an influence on service level recognition in order to fairly evaluate service functions of educational facilities, and subsequently to use these factors as ingredients of establishing a consistent and efficient maintenance system. Therefore this study proposed explanatory variables to measure influential factors for each major maintenance category. Then appropriate statistical verification was carried out on questionnaires that collected from a number of industry experts to test its fe asibility.

The undergrounding of diverse ground facilities has led to a decrease in issues, such as foul smell of water supply systems and wastewater, a fall of telephone poles, electromagnetic waves and breaking of wires caused by a railway work. On the other hand, there are new issues, including a fall accident, explosion affected by flammable gas, a choking accident by harmful gas and a lack of oxygen concentration, a fire coming from high-tension wire heating and flooding in the manhole. Besides, these issues damage the civil society and are an anxiety to public safety. Therefore, this paper is focused on a smart manhole device for stable communication environments inside and outside the manhole and wireless communication with various devices for managing facilities in the manhole, and aims to make a contribution to public safety by suggesting a direction of future underground facility management.

GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar), developed as a technology for geotechnical investigations such as sinkhole exploration, was used limitedly as a method to resolve undetectable lines in underground facility exploration. To improve the accuracy of underground facility data, the government made it possible to explore underground facilities using a non-metallic pipeline probe from July 2022. However, GPR has a problem in that the exploration rate is lowered in the soil with high moisture content, such as soft soil, such as clay layer, and there is a lot of variation in long-term accuracy. In this study, as a way to improve the accuracy of exploration considering the characteristics of GPR and the environment of underground facilities, we propose a GPR exploration method for underground facilities using permittivity constant correction and pattern analysis of GPR image data. Through this study, the accuracy of underground facility exploration and high reproducibility were derived as a result of field verification applying GPR frequency band and heterogeneous GPR.

Recently, interest in autonomous driving has drawn attention to autonomous cooperative driving, which considers the development of driving technology of autonomous vehicles and the development of infrastructure that constitutes a driving environment. According to the concept of autonomous cooperative driving, This study analyzes the new infrastructure for autonomous driving that can complement the information of existing precise road maps and adding HD map layer as the new infrastructure. The new infrastructure for autonomous driving presented two types of improved facilities and one type of sensor only facility. Analysis of HD maps shows that information such as junction points rarely changes, but it is expected that infrastructure for autonomous driving can be added to convey the meaning of paying attention to obstacles that may arise at the junction. In this way, the new infrastructure for autonomous driving needs to support the roles of guidance, instruction, and attention that existing road facilities.

Generally, organic paint on steel towers can guarantee durability in normal condition but occasionally shows its deterioration on the power line tower and electric power facilities, exposed to light(ultra violet) or heat. The objective of this study is to develope the inorganic paint material based on fluid silicic acid for steel electric power facilities. For the purpose, optimal mixture proportion is derived through 6 preliminary test and, additionally physical and durability performance test are carried out for selected specimens. The performances of developed organic paint material is similar to those of organic paint material. If resistance to chemical attack is improved, the developed inorganic paint is evaluated to replace the organic paint and obtain wide application.

하천은 산, 들, 바다 등과 같이 국토의 주요 구성요소이다. 하천과 인간사회는 여러 가지 측면에서 밀접한 관계를 가져왔다. 하천의 이ㆍ치수 기능과 환경기능 모두 인간 사회에 필수적인 요소이다. 1990년대에 들어 이ㆍ치수와 환경 기능의 공존을 위한 국민들의 관심과 욕구는 급증하고 있고, 특히 주 5일제 근무시행으로 인한 여가시간의 증가로 향후 친수환경에 대한 수요는 더욱 증가할 것으로 예상되나, 그동안 부적절한 하천관리로 우리나라의 하천은 홍수배제를 위주로 한 하천변형(직강화, 제방증고, 하상굴착 등), 부적절한 시설물 설치(고수부지, 하천복개, 호안공, 도로 및 주차장 등) 및 오염물질의 배출통로 역할 등으로 인하여 하천환경이 점점 악화되었다.(중략)
