In order to provide fundamental data for the creation of environmental design criteria for horticultural facilities, we developed a method to easily calculate the seasonal heating load applying heating degree-hour while taking into account heating load reductions due to solar radiation in the daytime, and reviewed through greenhouse heating experiments. Heating experiments and measuring meteorological environments were carried out in three greenhouses located at Buyeo, Cheonan, and Buan, and we derived reduction factors of seasonal heating load according to hours of sunshine. Daily mean hours of sunshine during the experiment period in each of the greenhouse was 4.0 to 8.3 hours, and the reduction factor of seasonal heating load was 0.64 to 0.85, has been shown to decrease linearly with the increase in hours of sunshine. A method to estimate the seasonal heating load for greenhouses was developed using the reduction factor of seasonal heating load derived from the greenhouse heating experiment, including the adjustment factor of seasonal heating load according to hours of sunshine. The developed method was validated through heating experiments in a greenhouse located at Cheonan. Greenhouse seasonal heating loads calculated by the method developed in this study were analyzed to show the estimate error of 1.2 to 5.0%. It showed that the accuracy increased 2.3 times more than when using the heating load reduction factor of 0.75 applied uniformly in previous studies. Thus, the calculation method of seasonal heating load for greenhouses considering hours of sunshine developed in this study could be utilized for energy estimation, management planning, and economic evaluation in greenhouse design.

This study aims to simulate the 3 dimensional (3D) model of Keum-man connection canal using geographic information system (GIS) as well as considering design in viewpoint of engineering. The canal connects from Keumkang to Mangyungkang in order to supply fresh water into Saemankeum lake. This study used 3 dimensional spatial planning model (3DSPLAM) process to generate the 3D model, which has not only several planning layers in actual process, but also their corresponding layers in modeling process to simulate 3D space of rural villages. The discharge of the canal is $20m^3/s$ on slope of 1/28,400 in the canal length of 14.2km, which consists of pipe line and open channel. This study surveyed the route of the canal and its surrounding environment for facilities to make images in the 3D graphic model. Besides, the present study developed data set in GIS for geogrphical surface modeling as well as parameters in hydraulic analysis for water surface profile on the canal using HEC-RAS model. From the data set constructed, this study performed analysis of water surface profile with HEC-RAS, generation of digital elevation model (DEM) and 3D objects, design of the canal section and route on DEM in AutoCAD, and 3D canal model and its surrounding 3D space in 3DMAX with virtual reality. The study result showed that the process making 3D canal model tried in this study is very useful to generate computer graphic model with the designed canal on the surface of DEM. The generated 3D canal can be used to assist decision support for the canal policy.

The present study has quantitatively assessed the regional production, income and employment impact resulting from the construction and operation of nuclear power plant (NPP) upon the domestic local areas by applying the regional input-output analysis model to the case of Wolsong unit-l site. The conclusions regarding the most likely regional economic impacts upon the wolsong site are summarized as follows: 1. The income multipliers are calculated to be 1.563 for the construction phase and 1.500 for the operation phase. These values are relatively high compared with those of other conventional facilities. 2. The level of total employee's wage induced employment associated with the construction phase has been estimated to be 37,000 while that with the operational phase in 1990 to be 5,610. 3. With relation to the aspect of resident welfare it is found that the industrial sector associated with electricity, gas and water supply have remarkably improved with the construction of the NPP. 4. The NPP siting has induced substantial changes in interindustry (input-output) structures of the Wolsong unit-l site which is one of the rural areas where all the domestic NPPs are sited. Such changes are attributed to the industrial recomposition of the region. 5. With the application of other regional economic analysis models and the use of more sufficient regional data, other detailed studies on the economic impact analysis of domestic NPP-related facility sitings are suggested to be carried out further since the influence of NPP sitings is significant to the national economic impact as well as the regional economic impact.

This article explores Changgyeongwon's spatial and cultural characteristics that were created there as the first modern urban park in Kyeongseong in the Japanese colonial era. First, in point of comparison regarding a colonial historical view, the study tried to understand the background of Changgyeongwon's establishment as well as three aspects of Changgyeongwon's characteristics as a modern urban park. The study found that; First, foreign envoys and high ranking members had visited Changgeongwon in the early opening period. This shows that this site was a park for foreign propaganda and modern display. Second, Changgyeongwon was altered as a place of enlightenment in the 1920s. This is related to the tendency of Changgyeongwon's increasing popularity around this period. More facilities and events particularly for women and children were offered at that time. Third, investigating the historical records, Changgyeongwon's cultural characters as a park are discussed. Changgyeongwon was an important place creating a modern park culture in Kyeongseong in the colonial era.

2001년 경찰청 $\ulcorner$2001년판 교통사고통계$\lrcorner$ 자료에 의하면 사고피해의 정도를 나타내는 치사율에 있어서 중앙선침범사고가 과속사고와 함께 가장 높은 수치를 보이고 있으며, 대형 교통사고의 39.5%가 중앙선 침범에 의해 발생한 것으로 나타났다. 실제로 2000년 한 해 동안 총 사고건수 290,481건 중 중앙선 침범에 의해 18,931건 (6.52%)의 교통사고가 발생하여 사망자 1,472명, 부상자 35,046명으로 전체 교통사고 사망자의 14.38%, 부상자의 8.21%를 점하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같이 전체 교통사고에서 중앙선침범사고가 차지하는 비중 이 높아지고 있어 중앙선침범사고를 줄이기 위한 대책의 일환으로 중앙분리대, 표지병, 시선 유도봉 등과 같은 중앙선침범 예방시설물을 설치하고 있으나, 해당 시설물에 대한 설치기준이 없는 실정이다. 이렇듯 중앙분리대 설치기준의 부재로 인해 중앙선침범사고 발생과 이에 따르는 경제적인 교통사고 비용손실, 그리고 중앙분리대의 과다설치로 인한 국가 재원의 낭비는 간과할 수 없는 문제점을 내포하고 있다. 이러한 점에 착안하여 기존에 지방부 2차로 도로의 직선부에 대한 중앙선침범사고 예측모델이 개발되었고 본 연구에서는 그 연장선상에서 지방부 2차로 도로의 곡선부에 대한 중앙선침범사고 예측모델에 대한 중앙선침범사고 예측모델의 개발을 통해 중앙선침범사고에 대한 사회적 비용을 산정하고, 현재 설치하여 운영중인 중앙선침범 예방시설물의 설치비용간의 비용-편익분석을 통해 얻어진 기준으로 중앙선침범 예방시설물 설치의 가부에 대한 보다 현실적이고 비용-효율적인 중앙선침범 예방시설물 설치기준을 제시함으로써 교통사고 비용손실을 최소화하고, 중앙분리대의 효율적 설치방안의 도입을 통한 경제적 이익창출을 도모하고자 한다.
