  • Background and objective: This study was conducted to investigate the effects of forest therapy programs on reducing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression and improving mood states in fire officers. Methods: To determine PTSD, depression, and mood states before and after the forest therapy program, the survey results of 185 fire officers were analyzed. Frequency analysis was conducted to identify the demographic characteristics of the participants, and Wilcoxon signed-rank test to analyze the differences among group. Results: As a result of a comparative analysis of PTSD before and after the program, there was a significant decrease in PTSD from 10.65 ± 12.00 to 5.64 ± 8.29 after the program. Depression also showed a statistically significant difference from 3.21 ± 4.00 to 2.21 ± 3.47 after the program. As a result of comparatively analyzing mood states before and after the program, there was an increase in positive factors and a decrease in negative factors. Total mood disturbance (TMD) also showed a statistically significant decrease from 5.78 ± 17.37 to -7.38 ± 10.35 after the program. Conclusion: This study has significance in verifying that forest therapy programs can bring psychological changes to fire officers, and these results can be used as a basis for stress management and relief of fire officers.

  • 최근 건축물은 대지 이용의 효율성을 높이기 위해 주상 복합화·고층화되는 추세이며, 이에 따른 화재의 발생빈도 및 잠재적인 위험요소도 증가하고 있다. 특히, 고층 공동주택의 경우 비상용승강기와 별도로 승용승강기 중 1대 이상을 피난용승강기로 설치하게 되어 특별피난계단 부속실, 비상용승강기 승강장 겸용의 경우 피난용승강기 승강장과 직렬형태의 구조가 되어 새로운 형태의 제연구역 이 발생한다. 따라서 비상용승강기 승강장과 피난용승강기 승강장의 직렬형태 구조에 대한 제연구역 선정의 제시가 필요하며, 새로운 형태에서 제연성능을 달성하는 것에 대한 문제가 대두되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 CONTAM을 이용하여 각 제연구역 형식(비상용승강기 승강장 단독제연, 피난용승강기 승강장 단독제연, 비상용승강기 승강장과 피난용승강기 승강장 동시제연 누설틈새 적용·미적용)의 방연풍속, 차압을 확인하고, 직렬형태 구조에 대해 제연성능을 확보하기 위한 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

  • 현대 화학플랜트 및 석유 가스 산업 시설은 다양한 잠재위험으로 인하여 위험물질의 누출 및 화재가 빈번히 발생하고 있다. 그 중 특히 화재는 직접적인 화염의 접촉 또는 복사열로 인하여 인명피해는 물론 건물, 설비에 대한 피해 발생으로 domino effect가 발생하여 2차, 3차 피해까지도 발생하기도 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 발생가능한 화재를 파악하여 사고피해영향과 빈도를 낮추어 화재 위험성을 관리하는 FRA(Fire Risk Assessment)기법의 절차를 제시하였으며, 사고피해영향으로 화염의 직접적인 접촉과 복사열로 인한 주요건물(제어실, 창고, 변전소)의 물리적 특성이 변형되는 시간을 고려하였다. 사례연구를 통하여 수행한 FRA기법으로 국내외 화학공장의 위험성을 경감시킬 수 있었으며, Protection 설정을 통한 사고의 빈도와 피해영향의 감소를 정량적으로 파악할 수 있었다.

  • In general there are few cases which were caused by lightening and no fire was observed to have been caused but by artificial or accidental fires during preliminary survey. And then the most scales of burning in Korea are like the fig. 2. Temperature 5 cm apart from flame at the burning site were known to range from 165$^{\circ}$to 20$0^{\circ}C$ in surface fire on Myozangdong, pine-quercus dominant community and from 120$^{\circ}$ to 145$^{\circ}C$ in surface fire of Wolwoonni, Mischanthus dominant area and from 120$^{\circ}$ to 14$0^{\circ}C$ in ground fire of Wangzinkun, Mischanthus dominant, respectively. Through the preliminary survey, fire indicater plants in Korea were confirmed as Mischanthus coreensis Hack and Carex alterifolia Franch. The plants of highest frequency appeared in the burnt sites were known to as Potentilla cryptotaeniae Max, Mischanthus coreensis Hack, Carex alterifolia Franch and Artemisia brachyphylla Kitamura. Lespedezas were proved as one of the fire tolerant and Pinus densiflora was found out as the lowest intolerant plant to fire. The acidity of burnt soil was decreased according to the considerable amount of ash left on the ground. The acidity of surface soil was more decreased than the below 10cm of soil. The chemical composition(NO3, P, K, Mg, Total-N and Organic-C) of burnt soil was more increased than those of the unburnt sites. And the population changes of soil microflora seemed to have a certain tendency. The population of soil microflora was increased a little according to climatic conditions. Also there was an initial decrease in the population of microflora followed immediately by a significant increase.

  • Purpose: By analyzing the health status of emergency patients on islands in the Jeollanam-do province, this study aims to provide basic data for proposed future medical emergency services on the islands. This information includes monthly and hourly statistics on patients' characteristics, patient frequency, an analysis of first aid procedures, response times, and time spent at hospitals. Methods: The study analyzed the monthly and hourly frequency of emergency patients, first aid status and procedures, general patient characteristics, accident types, patient cognitive status and agility, marine police response times, and frequency and percentile of hospital dispatch times. Results: 1Q and #q show the highest patient turnover rate in one year. 50.5% of daily patients are admitted between 4 PM and 12 PM. The hospital dispatch time is within a one- to two-hour window for 54.0% of all patients. Conclusion: The emergency medical service system for the Jeollanam-do province islands and seas is available to all Korean residents, citizens, and visitors. It is necessary to implement an emergency medical system for the relevant organizations.

  • 전류 돌입형, 비선형 및 전류 단속형 부하들은 정상작동 상태에서 아크 발생의 경우와 유사한 전류파형을 갖는다. 이러한 부하들에서 아크 검출기법을 정확하게 구현하기 위하여서는 아크 유무에 따른 전류파형의 전형적인 특징을 찾을 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 UL 1699의 직렬과 병렬 아크 발생장치들로 이러한 부하들에 마크를 발생시키고 시간 및 주파수 영역에서 아크 전류파형을 분석한다. 아크 실험의 분석결과를 통하여 아크 전류파형의 전형적인 특징은 시간영역에서는 영점전류의 처짐 현상이고 주파수영역에서는 60Hz 고조파 성분을 제외한 전대역의 주파수에 걸쳐서 스펙트럼 크기가 증가되는 것임을 보인다. 비선형 및 전류 단속형 부하들에서 시간영역보다는 주파수영역의 아크 전류의 특징이 보다 명확히 나타남을 보인다. 본 논문에서 제시된 아크 전류파형의 특징들은 아크 차단기 개발을 위한 기반자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

  • Purpose: This study investigated the use of infection management and the frequency of emergency equipment sterilization by emergency rescue crews to provide basic guidelines and suggestions for infection control. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was completed by 160 emergency medical technician rescue crews in J area from May 7 to May 22 in 2015. The questionnaire consisted of 95 items, including the general characteristics of the subjects (8 items), the use of emergency equipment (33 items), the frequency of facility sterilization (33 items), infection control (12 items), vaccination (4 items), and the use of personal protective equipment (5 items). Results: In all, 97.3% of respondents were aware of the "Guidelines of Infection management for Rescue Operators' and 90.9% received training on infection control. A total of 72.7% and 47.3% of rescue centers were equipped with disinfection facilities and laundry rooms, respectively. The average frequency of sterilization was $3.17{\pm}0.75$, which significantly differed for teams with more clinical experience (p=.050) and teams with three members (p=.030). The average score for individual protective equipment supplies was $1.95{\pm}0.66$. Conclusion: For proper infection management of emergency equipment, our results suggest that the number of crew members should be increased for each ambulance, protective equipment and rescue products should be supplied, and the number of facilities for sterilization and laundry at rescue centers should be doubled.

  • Diesel 버스가 대체적으로 주류를 이루는 일반버스들에 대한 위험도 평가결과 첫째, 순간적인 누출이 일어날 빈도는 1.4E-3/bus/year이었으며, 이로 인한 하부사상으로 Fireball의 결과를 초래할 확률은 1.7E-4이었다. 또한 그 중 CNG 버스에서 순간적인 누출이 일어날 수치는 0.002 event/year로 나타났다. 둘째, 균열에 기인되어 점차적인 누설이 일어날 빈도는 3.7E-s/year로 평가되었으며, 이에 대한 하부사상으로서 jet flame의 결과를 초래할 확률은 1.2E-3으로 나타났다. 또한 CNG 버스에서 점차적인 누출이 일어날 수치는 0.04 event/year이었다. 아울러 피해 예측 면에서 CNG버스와 디젤버스의 운송거리에 대해 화재 사상자들을 비교하였을 때, 디젤버스는 0.091 Fire fatalities/100-million miles이었으며, CNG버스는 대략 0.17 Fire fatalities/100-million miles이었다. 이 의미는 화재로 인한 치명적인 사상자수를 비교했을 때 CNG버스는 디젤버스에 비해 평균 두 배가 위험하다는 것을 보여 주는 것이고, 결국 CNG버스들이 디젤버스들에 비해 주요 화재에 대해 민감하다는 것을 말해 주는 것이다. 본 연구에서 CNG버스들의 위험도를 평가하기 위해 사용된 총칭적인 모델들과 고장 데이터들은 적정하다. 그러나 CNG버스와 관련된 연구에 있어서 더욱 더 정확한 결과를 제공하기 위해서는 향후 더 정확한 물리적인 면에 기초한 모델들과 CNG버스에 대한 자료 확충 및 데이터베이스화가 요구된다.

  • This paper describes recent developments in composite construction and their effect on codified design procedures in the UK. Areas of particular interest include: rules on shear connection, design of beams with web openings, serviceability limits, such as floor vibrations, and fire safe design. The design of cellular beams with regular circular openings now includes generalized rules for web-post buckling, and for the development of in-plane moment in the web-post for asymmetric sections. Closed solutions for the maximum shear force due to limits on web-post bending or buckling are presented. The fire resistance of cellular beams is also dependent on the temperature of the web-post, and for closely spaced openings. It is necessary to increase the thickness of fire protection to the web. For serviceability design of beams, deflection limits and natural frequency and response factor for vibration are presented. It may be necessary to use stricter limits for certain applications.
