PURPOSES : Infiltration of moisture, polluted material, and deicer into concrete, accompanied by freeze and thaw can cause significant deterioration of concrete pavement. In order to protect concrete from deterioration, it is necessary to prevent the infiltration of these concrete external materials. The moisture-repellent agent, which is a surface treatment and maintenance material added to concrete structures to render them water resistant, has advantages such as prevention of water infiltration and security against air permeation. Nano-coat, which is referred to as silicon hydride, is typically used as a moisture-repellent agent. Therefore, in this study, an attempt is made to use penetration-type Nano-coat as an alternative in order to evaluate its applicability through environmental resistance tests. METHODS : This study aimed to evaluate the applicability of penetration-type Nano-coat, which can provide water repellency to concrete, in concrete pavements, through various environmental resistance tests such as freezing and thawing resistance, chloride ion penetration resistance, and surface scaling resistance tests. The applicability of penetration-type Nano-coat was demonstrated based on the specification of KS F 2711, KS F 2456, and ASTM C 672. RESULTS :In the case of penetration-type Nano-coat applied on sound concrete, an increase in concrete durability was demonstrated by the negligible chloride ion penetrability and the absence of scaling, as revealed by visual observation of the surface, after 50 cycles of scaling resistance test. In addition, test result of the application of penetration-type Nano-coat on deteriorated concrete established that concrete surface pretreated by grinding provided improved durability than non-treated concrete. CONCLUSIONS :This study indicates that penetration-type Nano-coat is applicable as an effective alternative, to increase the durability of concrete structures. In addition, it was known that pretreatment of deteriorated concrete surface, such as grinding, is required to improve the long-term performance of concrete pavement.

This study was performed to investigate the effect of mineral admixture' type and replacement ratios on the chloride penetration resistance of concrete which was immersed in the artificial chloride solution. The chloride penetration resistance was evaluated by penetration depth and chloride diffusion coefficient. As a result, all of the mineral admixtures were effective on the chloride penetration resistance of concrete compared to ordinary portland cement only.

It is difficult to control differential settlement and long-term settlement on soft ground with the template used in the pre-filing method of offshore wind power. In this study, the template adopted a suction foundation with high utility on soft ground. To analyze the penetration performance of the doughnut-type suction foundation, step-by-step numerical analysis was applied by calculating the minimum suction pressure needed for ground penetration at that depth. Scale model tests were performed and compared with the numerical analysis results. The ratio of the inside diameter compared to the outside diameter is higher, and penetration by suction was more advantageous than push-in load penetration. The step-by-step numerical analysis method showed an error within 2 % compared to the model tests, so the numerical analysis method confirmed results that the penetration performance of the doughnut-type suction foundation is valid.

The penetration of domestic high-titania potassium type arc welding rod has been investigated experimentally. The penetration of this type arc welding rod is influenced much more by changing welding current than welding speed and thickness of base metal in range of $6{\sim}9mm$. Values of penetrations were $1.00{\sim}1.75mm$ for $3.2mm{\phi}$ rod, and $1.10{\sim}1.86mm$ for $4mm{\phi}$ rod in adequate welding current range. The domestic rod's penetration is deeper than same type rod of the United State's product.

Windows are widely used for natural ventilation of the various buildings. Especially high level windows as a part of industrial ventilation systems, play a crucial role in natural ventilation. Compared to mechanical ventilation system, natural ventilation has the advantage of lower installation and operating costs. In general, high level windows for industrial buildings have three types; louver type, 45$^{\circ}$ open type and 90$^{\circ}$ open type. Based on previous studies, it was found that the louver type and 45$^{\circ}$ open type are very effective in reducing rainwater penetration, but they did not have enough ventilation efficiencies. Preliminary tests were performed with the various types of windows. It was found that a 90$^{\circ}$ open double layer type window was the best among those which tested in our preliminary tests. Simulated rain was used to estimate the amount of rain penetrated through windows and to observe the paths of rain penetration. Various 90$^{\circ}$ open windows were tested to find the windows with minimum rain penetration and maximum ventilation efficiency.

The Standard penetration test determines the type of soil according to soil bearing capacity, and this classifies the subsoil into many layers. Construction project managers are willing to know the depth of the present types of subsoil on site in order to make plans on earthwork stage during excavation. However the standard penetration test may not provide accurate information on subsoil type due to incorrect spacing. To solve this problem, this study propose a conceptual algorithm for determining the spacing of standard penetration test spots to essentially tests relevant locations on which to be applied the standard penetration test. This provides the acquirement of the accurate layered model volume of earthwork revised into geological columnar section. This algorithm will determine the appropriate standard penetration test spots spacing on a given size of site to optimize the accuracy of the earthwork volume, time and cost.

Crack penetration behavior by fatigue crack propagation and measurements of AE before-and-after crack penetration were examined using SS41 steel plate. Experimental crack shape of SU type was in good agreement with calculated shape rather than S type. Crack propagation behavior on the front surface appears not to change markedly after penetration. However, crack growth on the back surface appears to accelerate as reported by author. As a crack propagates, AE occurred heavily just before penetration. Then, it decreases and crack is penetrating. A transition from plane strain to plane stress was observed by fractographic study. At this time, separation of fracture surface was shown which affects AE occurrence.

In this study, to test the performance of concrete used as a concrete admixture as a recycling method of CGS, gypsum was mixed and the chloride ion penetration resistance test of CGS and BFS substituted concrete was conducted. As a result, it was found that without gypsum type test specimen, the CGS sustituted test specimens had lower chloride ion penetration resistance than the BFS substituted specimens. When gypsum was added, it was confirmed that the chloride ion penetration resistance was poor regardless of the type of admixture. In addition, it was confirmed that both admixtures were less resistant to chloride ion penetration than OPC, regardless of the presence of gypsum. However, considering the uneven quality variation of coal, which greatly affects the quality of CGS, further research is needed.

We had prepared MLV liposome with Hibiscus Esculentus Ext.(HEE) which have fluorescent light in order to evaluate its percutaneous absorption about hairless rat skin. Then we investigated particle size of MLV using confocal laser scanning microscope(CLSM) and transmission electron microscope(TEM), respectively. Stability of MLV liposome and penetration of MLV liposome to hairless rat skin was measured by CLSM. As a result of experiments, MLV was globular shape and the rage of particle size was 0.3-0.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ mostly. Cream-type MLV had high stability comparatively. When we treated with MLV to rat skin, skin penetration was enhanced, especially, the optimum concentration of MLV on penetration to rat skin was 10%. Optimum penetration time was 6hr-12hr. And MLV-type HEE was more effective on percutaneous absorption than HEE-cream or liposome-type HEE.
