The Tuned Pendulum Slab Damper(TPSD)system is mainly composed of suspended pendulum slab which was hanging with cable wire from the top floor of building without any extra loads structurally, and can be helpful to reduce vibration with effect of tuned mass damper function by the principle of pendulum movement. The experiment was performed with miniatures of the 30stories of steel structure building by the forced vibration test using shaking table, and the result was reduced about 42% of vibration. The purpose of this study was to make analysis of application of the TPSD system to new building and exist building against strong wind or seismic wave. The result of this study was that the TPSD system shall be satisfactory in field of execution, process control, safety and economical efficiency with saving up to 70% of construction cost.

The objective of this study is to provide recommendations for the interir design of motor showroom as a sales policy. ten cases of motor showrooms were selected from already observed 50 showrooms in Seoul area. findings revealed that the car industries of Korea should meet the strong needs of differentiated sales policy, and the showroom design was an important factor which influenced client's pruchasing power. From these findings and analyses, this study suggests that each brand has to represent the typical total image to appeal to the consumer strongly . Additionally each showroom should be flexible in modification to meet the diverse conditions such as the location, required function and the trend of consumers. In conclusion , researchers provided 6 types of recommendations in terms of floor plan and interior elements such as circulation path, moduled furniture and objects color and lighting variation . Hopely, this research provides more functional and comfortable environment of automobile showrooms for consumers and companies.

Recently with increasing interest in the natural science history education, a lot of natural science museums have been developed in various locations. This project is located in one of the biggest Paleozoic site, Taebak Kangwon-do. This kind museum has had important rolls in terms of education for student, destination for traveling and reservation of important holdover of the old ages. To do those kind of parts, this project has been designed with concepts and themes like; i. being organized with story telling structure with theme "secret of life and earth from Taebak" ii. combining experiences between outdoor experimental search for the real fossils and indoor educational interactions with real size model and moving films. iii. designing with strong identities of Paleozoic era. For the design identities the outer appearance was designed with motive of trilbites in an abstract way and inside was finished with exposed concrete and various size of moving films projected to walls and floor to emphasize real scale experience of the old ages.

The transfer of air pollutants between passenger room and service room in train are investigated by the computational analysis. The effects of service room temperature, inlet velocity, initial concentration and heating are studied. The flow induced by the difference of density between two rooms is found to take the major role in transfer of polluted air. Low temperature of service room enhances the polluted air flow into passenger room along the floor. Exhaust fan above the door between two rooms is not effective for this case. Strong inlet flow is found to suppress polluted air flow from service room. The heating of passenger room can promote air pollution.

It is well recognized that structures designed to resist strong ground motions should be able to withstand substantial inelastic deformations. A simple procedure has been developed in this paper to monitor the dynamic earthquake response (time-history analysis) of both steel and concrete multistorey buildings in the inelastic range. The building is treated as a shear beam model with three degrees of freedom per floor. The entire analysis has been programmed to run on a microcomputer and can output time histories of displacements, velocities, accelerations and member internal forces at any desired location. A record of plastic hinge formation and restoration to elastic state is also provided. Such information can be used in aseismic analysis and design of multistorey buildings so as to control the damage and optimize their performance.

This study explores the patterns of housing-related attitudes and the kind of needs for shared community spaces among small-sized apartment housing dwellers. The major findings are as follows. The majority of the dwellers are in strong need of common spaces, especially for children's activities, Social gathering and physical exercises. Housing-related attitudes are found and grouped into 4categories the propensity to making up common society, the propensity to pursuing the quality of neighborhood, the propensity to orienting natural environment, and the propensity to participating in community. The intensity of the needs depends on family lifecycle, employment status of housewives, and the size of floor space. The propensity to making up common society and pursing the quality of neighborhood have stronger impact on needs of shared community space. This study reveals that the sense of community orientation is the most powerful predictor variable for shared community space needs .

Steps are very common features in our living environment. Unfortunately, the occurrence of accidents on steps is thus inevitable. A failed visibility to recognize a step remains the most common attribute in these accidents. In this research, sensory scales of step visibility were created in order to examine the effects of two factors on step visibility in sensory testing methods; observation height from floor and eye condition while viewing a step from the descending direction. Results of sensory tests revealed strong influence of eye condition on step visibility. Influence of visual characteristics of each step was also examined and clarified.

Self-centering concentrically braced frames (SCCBFs) are emerging as high performance seismically resistant braced framing system, due to the capacity of withstanding strong earthquake attacks and promptly recovering after events. To get a further insight into the seismic performance of SCCBFs, systematical evaluations are currently conducted from the perspective of modal contributions. In this paper, the modal pushover analysis (MPA) approach is utilized to obtain the realistic seismic demands by summarizing the contribution of each single vibration mode. The MPA-based results are compared with the exact results from nonlinear response history analysis. The adopted SCCBFs originate from existing buckling-restrained braced frames (BRBF), which are also analyzed for purpose of comparison. In the analysis of these comparable framing systems, interested performance indices that closely relate to the structural damage degree include the interstory drift ratio, floor acceleration, and absorbed hysteretic energy. The study shows that the MPA approach produces acceptable predictions in comparison to the exact results for SCCBFs. In addition, the high-modes effect on the seismic behavior increases with the building height, and is more evident in the SCCBFs than the BRBFs.

In this study, it is experimentally investigated how bell acoustics are influenced by the internal cavity of the bell and the gap between the bell bottom and the floor. Acoustic transmission function and natural frequency of a test bell are measured and analysed. Experimental study is conducted to evaluated how the resonance effect influences the bell sound and how the bell sound is different according to the striking condition and the measurement direction. Acoustic resonance frequency of the cavity-gap system is predicted by boundary element analysis using SYSNOIS and the validity of the predicted result is verified by experiment. The result of the study could be applied to determine the optimal gap size which makes the bell sound strong and long.

A weight-rate disposal system for food waste has been implemented in all over the country. The food waste disposal system is a system paying service charge according to the volume of food waste, which means the more we produce waste, the more we have to pay as much.Since this policy was introduced, each of apartment, villa, etc and other buildings must install the food waste disposal system. We can say that there are strong points in this paper for us to install a weight monitor on the channel of the floor each, accumulate the fares automatically and collect the fares at the end of every month.
