In the nuclear power plant, steel or polymer liner plates are adopted to prohibit inner concrete surface contacting with gas or liquid materials. If there is an accident, the plate will be damaged, and concrete shall have final responsibility to safety requirements. In this paper, an experimental research was carried out to investigate the effects of construction joint and wet and loading condition on the permeability of concrete. The test results showed that leakage rate is decreased much more at the following cases than the others : (a)wet condition, (b)without a construction joint case, and (c)case subjected to external loads. It was noted that more reinforcement is required at the latter case.

This paper presents the results of a parametric study on the behavior of tunnel face reinforced with horizontal pipes. A three-dimensional finite element model was adopted in this study to capture the three-dimensional nature of tunnel face behavior under various boundary conditions. A parametric study was peformed on a wide range of boundary conditions with emphasis on the effect of reinforcing layouts on the deformation behavior of tunnel face. The results of analysis such as tunnel face deformation behavior under various conditions were thoroughly analyzed, and a database for the behavior of tunnel face under different reinforcing conditions was established for future development of a semi-empirical design/analysis method for the tunnel face reinforcing technique. The results indicated that there exits an optimum reinforcing layout for a given tunnel condition, which must be selected with due consideration of tunnel geometry and ground condition.

This stability of a plate structure is very crucial problem which results in wrinkle and buckling. In this study, the effect of the pattern of spot-welding points of the two rectangular plates on the compressive and shear buckling load is studied with respect to the thickness, aspect ratio of plates and number of welding spots. Buckling coefficient of the plate not welded was compared with that of two plates with various thickness to extract the effect of thickness. The effect of number of welding spots are studied in two directions, longitudinal and transverse directions. The conclusions obtained were that the reinforcement effect was maximized when the aspect ratio was close to 1.75 at compressive load condition and that the effect of number of welding spots in transverse direction was larger than that in longitudinal direction at shearing load condition.

The simulation of the ballistic trajectory of penetrator into the spaced multi-layer RC targets is very important to predict the hitting condition in subsequent target. Because of perturbation by lateral load of penetrator caused by asymmetric hitting position between penetrator and steel bar reinforcement, penetrator rotates and deviates from the straight path. Therefore, penetration capability of penetrator is decreased in the subsequent targets. This paper presents the result of the penetration of steel-bar-reinforced concrete target by using the explicit finite element code LS-DYNA. A series of computations is performed and compared to experimental data and the computed results are in good agreement with the experimental results over a wide range of velocities. And then we conduct the simulation according to various RC target hitting condition and impact velocities.

The problems associated with the excessive compensation of the public organizations in Korea have been presented not only by the press but also by the academic societies, including the management evaluation team of the public organizations, both in Korea and abroad. To analyze whether the compensation is excessive necessitates the empirical study on the present condition of the compensation system of the public organizations. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to suggest the issues and the future directions of the compensation in the public organizations. The findings from the analysis of the data collected in this research include the expansion of the difference in compensation, the reinforcement of the job and performance-based compensation, the systematization of the model on the base compensation, and the differentiation of the compensation increase based on productivity.

In case of dead-tank circuit breaker with the earthed enclosure, the dielectric performance for phase to ground should be verified under the hot-gas condition produced by the current interruption. This test condition is required in breaking test duties with the rated short-circuit current and rated voltage. And, KERI has completed the reinforcement of the synthetic testing facilities and these facilities have the testing capacity which enables the full-pole testing for 800kV circuit breaker by adopting the series voltage injection method. So, this paper introduced the test circuit and procedures about the full-pole and the multi-part testing method which was devised to estimate the full -insulation of phase-to-ground for the multi-pole and dead-tank circuit breaker.

The numerical analysis and the experiment was performed to investigate the influences of shear connector on shear resistance capability. The numerical analysis's results should that the H/B ratio of shear key is more effective than angle of shear key against shear strength and shear behavior, and it is more desirable to use a half of the H/B ratio of shear key. The specimen was made with same condition as AASHTO recommended. There model tests were performed under various form of shear key, number, arrangement reinforcement and condition using epoxy. As a result of the experiment, there is little difference(or there is no difference) between the case of using epoxy on shear connector and the unused case.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate effects of stiffener configuration welded to the plate on the fatigue strength. Nominal stress and hot spot stress for the stiffened plate under pure bending condition were evaluated using FEA and experiment and fatigue test for each specimen was performed. For S and SD type, the fatigue strength increase with a decrease in the nominal stress and hot spot stress. D type with doubler plate was found to have the lowest value of nominal and hot spot stress for a given condition. However its fatigue strength was smaller than the others.

An experimental investigation on the flexural fatigue behavior of a RC bridge slab retrofitted with Carbon Fiber Sheet (CFS) is presented. The test slab was almost identical to the slab of a highway viaduct in terms of the amount of reinforcement, quality of concrete and thickness of the slab, which was 18cm. Repeated load corresponding to 3.0, 4.5 or 6.0 times of the design load was applied to the test slab. Normal type and high-elastic modulus type of CFS were used for strengthening. The test slabs were loaded in dry or wet condition. Two different types of an-choring system were adapted. Some of the test slabs were damaged by the repeated load and retrofitted by CFS, then loaded again to see the improvement of the fatigue life. Infrared Thermography was also performed to investigate the debonding condition of CFS. From the test results, Carbon Fiber Sheet can be applied to the RC bridge slabs as a feasible retrofitting material.
