In this study, we aimed to identify changes in fire resistance according to the type of sleeves used for pipe penetrations and to examine their accreditation of fire resistance performance and use them as basic data. The test results of fire resistance according to the type of sleeve used in non-metallic pipe facilities showed that the temperature on the support side was higher for sleeves with higher thermal conductivity. For the temperature on the surface of the pipes, in the case of galvanized steel plates, steel pipes, and structures without sleeves, the highest temperature was observed after the expansion of the firestop material for 46 to 53 minutes and then decreased. PVC sleeves showed a steady increase in temperature until 53 minutes, after which the temperature did not increase further. In addition, for non-metallic pipes, the effect of the type of sleeve on fire resistance is considered to be insignificant because the lower part (heating direction of the furnace) under the support structure is cut off to block the heat during the two-hour fire resistance test.

Resin concrete has better properties than regular cement concrete in making structures such as manholes, pipes, etc. This study is to evaluate the performance of drain pipes made with resin concrete for the development its application. The test results have been checked by JSWAS K-11, because Korea does not have the code for its check-up. They satisfied all the requirements.

This experimental study was conducted to analyze the characteristics of centrifugal pipes which were made of silica fume concrete. External load tests showed that maximum external load ranged from 1,100~5,300kgf/m with thickness ratio(t/D) of between 4.5%~10.0%. Correlation between thickness ratios and external loads was excellent with $R^2$ of 0.99. Respective correlation between measured and computed vertical deformation was good with $R^2$ of higher than 0.90. And therefore, vertical deformation and tensile stress of centrifugal concrete pipes may be theoretically computed with a good precision.

Bend test for metallic materials was conducted on samples of galvanized steel pipes being used in greenhouse farms. A secular change of yield strength for galvanized steel pipes was analyzed with the part of buried in the ground and exposed in the atmosphere. From those experimental results and corrosion rate of galvanized film, the standard durable years for pipe framed greenhouses are estimated that the small sized pipe houses of movable type is 7∼8 years and the large sized pipe houses of fixed type is 14∼15 years.

The objective of this study was to estimate social cost on rehabilitation of existing water pipes by investigating the willingness-to-pay (WTP) of residents at INJE County to avoid the loss and inconvenience of transportation and business resulting from the sudden failure and leaks of old water pipes. Contingent valuation method was used through conducting survey to 180 residents in Inche County, with questions of double-bounded dichotomous choice. The resulting WTP of residents at Inche was 7,682 won/month/household. The annual social cost could be estimated as 960 million won, which might be caused by the failure of the old water pipes at INJE County.

A few intake stations have vibration problems caused by pipes. The vibration transffered from pipes excites building severely. Therefore, the crack is generated on building wall and people who work at intake station are damaged. In this paper, the vibration is measured and analysis is carried out for pipes at intake station in order to identify the usefulness and effectiveness of the solution proposed for pipe resonance avoidance. According to the result of analysis, the vibration of pipes is reduced by bellows.

In the waste collection system, living waste is collected through the piping network. There are many confluent pipes in a piping network. These confluent pipes were often clogged up with waste. The optimal configuration of the confluent pipes has been defined by the design guide. However, nobody know how this design guide were determined. Therefore, in this paper, we found the design data for the confluent pipe configuration in order to avoid the waste clogging in a piping network. The distance between connected point on the confluent pipes should be longer than the previous design guide.

Dynamic analysis of a concrete pipes armed with Silica ($SiO_2$) nanoparticles subjected to earthquake load is presented. The structure is modeled with first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) of cylindrical shells. Mori-Tanaka approach is applied for obtaining the equivalent material properties of the structure considering agglomeration effects. Based on energy method and Hamilton's principle, the motion equations are derived. Utilizing the harmonic differential quadrature method (HDQM) and Newmark method, the dynamic displacement of the structure is calculated for the Kobe earthquake. The effects of different parameters such as geometrical parameters of pipe, boundary conditions, $SiO_2$ volume percent and agglomeration are shown on the dynamic response of the structure. The results indicate that reinforcing the concrete pipes by $SiO_2$ nanoparticles leads to a reduction in the displacement of the structure during an earthquake.

Process parameters of roller levelling process are intermesh of each roller, roller angle, roller arrangement and shape of rollers. Experimental optimization of these process parameters is very troublesome because of difficulties in evaluating the straightness of pipes to be levelled quantitatively. Finite element method can be a very efficient way to evaluate the straightness of the pipes and therefore to optimize the process. This paper is concerned with simulation and optimization of a roller levelling process. Process parameters of a 14-roller levller for aluminum T9 pipes are optimized with finite element method and Taguchi method. Parameters of significance in roller levelling process and their optimum are obtained.

This study presents a nondestructive test for underwater PVC pipes. To use guided ultrasonic waves, specially denoted by cylindrical Lamb waves, a test setup was made in a water tank using the pitch and catch mode and specimens were made to give artificial cutouts located in the circumferential direction of the pipes. Total three states of damaged levels were considered to see how the guided waves interact with the defects. For the experimental adjustments, three different pipe diameters (60, 90, 114 mm) were tested, and two factors - incident angle (10 and $40^{\circ}$) and distance (50 and 200 mm) - were tried. From the results, regardless of the diameters and two experimental factors, it is shown that the degrees of defects were recognized through amplitude and arrived time of the very first part of the received cylindrical Lamb waves. Between amplitude and arrived time, it is found that the amplitude gives more sensitive results.
