In this paper, admixture factors affecting the properties of lightweight foamed concrete incorporating cement kiln dust(CKD) and fly ash(FA), respectively are discussed. Increase in CKD contents resulted in loss of fluidity and decrease in settlement of concrete noticeably. Moreover, the higher the unit weight is, the smaller the settlement depth is. The use of CKD resulted in slight decrease in compressive strength and tensile strength compared to that with other admixture. However, all mixtures met the requirement of strength prescribed in Korean Industrial Standards.

Assessement of comsolidation characteristics of soft soil is very important in the project of soft soil improvement. In the design step, the consolidation characteristics of soil is determined by the laboratory tests (typically oedometer test), generally. But there is big differences between the condition of laboratory test and the condition of field(in situ). the differences results in the considerable difference between the predicted and measured consolidation behavior. This article analyzed the consolidation data of the "SOFT SOIL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT of the 2nd Namdong Industrial Complex at Inchon". The project was improving the road way net work in the 2nd Namdong Industrial Complex by preloading and sand pile method. Field instrumentation was performed at 10 points which consist of pneumatic piezometers, magnetic probe extensometers, inclinometers and electronic dipmeter. The results showed that there is big difference in the laboratory predicted consolidation behavior and field consolidadion behavior. Also there was big difference in the settlement behavior and pore pressure behavior. This article investigated the above factors by comparing the settlement, pore pressure and strength at different conditions.onditions.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the environmental factors having a influence on the preference of residential district and to furnish basic information for the successful settlement. For the purpose, residential preference and values on the residential district were estimated according to the housing life cycle. Data were collected through questionnaires designed for this study, and the objects of this research were university students. To analyze the data were used spsswin program. The major results were as follows. 1. According to the housing life cycle, there were significant differences in the preference of the residential district, living area and housing type in the future. Metropolitan and seoul, residential area and commercial area, apartment, office-hotel and row house were preferred in the housing formative. In the stable period, seoul and metropolitan, tower apartment, residential area were preferred. But in the housing reductive period, they preferred a green zone in the rural, the detached house. 2. The degree of consideration of living convenience facilities was high in the housing formative period. Both education-leisure, business facilities and marketing facilities were highly valuated in the housing stable period. But the value of welfare facilities was high in the housing reductive period. 3. The 4 dimensions of values in environmental conditions were extracted through factor analysis. They were natural, human, social, and economic factors. According to the housing life cycle, there were significant differences in factors being considered as the environmental conditions. The values of human and economic factors were high in the housing formative and stable period. Natural factor were highly considered in the housing reductive period.

Recently, a 3,250 meter-long tunnel was constructed beneath the sea bed formed of composite sedimentary soils to transport reusable waste heat gas of industrial complex in the west coast of Korea. Some risks such as machine settlement always exist due to the uncertainties of geological and construction factors during the subsea shield TBM tunnelling. In this construction site, the deviation of tunnel alignment caused by shield TBM settlement was occurred during excavation. It was examined that the lack of bearing capacity of soft clay was a main cause. This paper evaluates the risk of shield TBM tunnelling considering the ground conditions. Correlation between machine settlement and its advance rate was evaluated through the analytical equation in which bearing capacity is considered and a 3-D numerical analysis which can simulate the TBM advance condition (in other words, the dynamic condition). It was found out that a shield TBM could settle due to the insufficient bearing capacity of soft clay layers. In order to prevent such the problem, the best advance rate proper to the ground characteristics is needed to be applied. In the ground conditions of the section of interest, it was turned out that if the shield TBM advance rate was maintained between 35 mm/min and 40 mm/min, the machine settlement could be avoided.
