현재 국내에는 지난 35년간 프리스트레스트 콘크리트보를 이용한 합성형 교량이 매우 널리 건설, 사용되어 왔으나, 교통량의 증가와 차량하중의 증가로 노후화가 점차 가속화되고 있는 형편이다. 본 연구에서는 유리섬유를 이용하여 손상된 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 교량을 보강하는 방법의 효과를 평가하기 위하여 무보강 표준시험체와 선행 하중의 재하로 균열이 발생한 8개의 시험체에 대하여 유리섬유 보강, 외부강선 보강 및 두가지 보강 방법을 병행한 보강을 실시하여 각 보강방법의 효과를 비교, 분석하였다. 실험결과, 최대하중은 외부강선 보강 시험체와 유리섬유 보강 시험체가 모두 거의 유사한 정도의 보강효과를 발휘함으로써 유리섬유 보강공법이 손상된 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 교량의 보강에 적용될 수 있는 것으로 판명되었다. 외부강선 보강공법에서의 가장 큰 문제가 단부의 정착장치인 것과 마찬가지로 유리섬유 보강 공법의 경우에도 최대하중에 도달하기 이전에 보강재의 부착이 파괴되지 않도록 적절한 방법을 선정하는 것이 매우 중요하며, 본 연구에서 검증된 두가지 방법이 단부의 정착기능을 충분히 발휘하는 것으로 판명되어, 이들 방법들이 적절히 사용될 경우에는 설계된 내하력의 증가를 기대할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Model tests for the ultimate pullout resistance of anchorages and investigation of failure behaviors in cohesionless soil have been conducted. The factors affecting the anchorage are mostly the geometry of the system, and soil properties of sands. The main conclusions of the experimental work were as follows. 1. The load - displacement relationship can be a form of parabolic curve for all plates. 2. The change in ultimate pullout resistance of anchor is mostly affected by embedment ratio and size of anchor, and influenced to a lesser degree by its shape. 3. Critical embedment ratio which is defined as the failure mode changes from shallow to deep mode is increased with increasing height of anchor. 4. For a constant anchor height, as the width of anchor increases the ultimate pullout resistance also increases. However, considering the efficiency of anchor for unit area, width of anchor does not appear to have any sigrnificant contribution on increasing anchor city. 5. Anchor capacity has a linear relation to sand density for any given section and the rate of change increases as the section increases. Critical depth determining the failure patterns of anchor is decreased with a decrease of sand density. 6. With increasing inclination angle, size of anchor, and decreasing embedment ratio, the ultimate pullout resistance of anchor under inclined loading is significantly decreased. 7. The ultimate pullout resistance of double anchor, a method of improving single of anchor capacity, is influenced by the center - to - center spacing adjacent anchors. It is also found that tandem and parallel anchor rigging arrangements decrease the anchor system capacity to less than twice the single anchor capacity due to anchor interference.

Objective: A national survey was conducted to assess orthodontic residents' current concepts and knowledge of cleft lip and palate (CLP) management in Korea. Methods: A questionnaire consisting of 7 categories and 36 question items was distributed to 16 senior chief residents of orthodontic department at 11 dental university hospitals and 5 medical university hospitals in Korea. All respondents completed the questionnaires and returned them. Results: All of the respondents reported that they belonged to an interdisciplinary team. Nineteen percent indicated that they use presurgical infant orthopedic (PSIO) appliances. The percentage of respondents who reported they were 'unsure' about the methods about for cleft repair operation method was relatively high. Eighty-six percent reported that the orthodontic treatment was started at the deciduous or mixed dentition. Various answers were given regarding the amount of maxillary expansion for alveolar bone graft and the estimates of spontaneous or forced eruption of the upper canine. Sixty-seven percent reported use of a rapid maxillary expansion appliance as an anchorage device for maxillary protraction with a facemask. There was consensus among respondents regarding daily wearing time, duration of treatment, and amount of orthopedic force. Various estimates were given for the relapse percentage after maxillary advancement distraction osteogenesis (MADO). Most respondents did not have sufficient experience with MADO. Conclusions: These findings suggest that education about the concepts and methods of PSIO and surgical repair, consensus regarding orthodontic management protocols, and additional MADO experience are needed in order to improve the quality of CLP management in Korean orthodontic residents.

Orthodontic treatment with premolar extraction is usually performed to correct bialveolar protrusion. These methods require the use of stiff rectangular working archwire which requires lengthy alignment and leveling before insertion. In this case report, interproximal reproximation was performed instead of extraction. To establish clearance between the archwire and resin domes fixing the archwire, an archwire was inserted into a water-soluble tube before fabricating resin domes. This tube is solved away by the saliva. During fabrication of resin domes, the archwire was deflected intentionally reflecting the displacement of teeth from their ideal position. This can be called as deflection-based bonding (DBB) technique. DBB is different from conventional method of positioning the brackets on its ideal position and then inserting an archwire to align the brackets. Because the orthodontic force of the archwire comes from its deflection from passive configuration, deflecting an archwire as needed can move the teeth more predictably than just bonding brackets on its ideal position. Also, areas with good alignment before orthodontic treatment can be maintained simply by not deflecting the archwire during bonding in these areas. After initial alignment, interproximal reproximation was performed to create 4.8 mm space in the maxillary arch and 4.2 mm space in the mandibular arch. These spaces were closed using orthodontic mini-implant anchorage thus retracting the maxillary incisors 4 mm posteriorly accompanied with 0.7 mm and 0.3 mm distal movement of right and left molars. By using interproximal reproximation and water-soluble tube with DBB, mild bialveolar protrusion was successfully treated without extraction.

FRP는 내부식성의 특성을 가지며 가볍고 인장강도가 커서 최근에 강재긴장재 대신 콘크리트 구조물에 활용되고 있다. 그러나 파단 시까지 선형 탄성거동을 하는 FRP는 콘크리트 보에 적용시 취성적인 파괴 경향을 보여준다. 이에 연성확보를 위해 제안된 공법이 부분 비부착 공법이다. 부분비부착공법은 긴장재 일부를 비부착시켜 연성을 확보하고 나머지 부분을 부착시켜 안전하게 정착구 역할을 대신하는 공법으로 본 연구에서 획기적으로 제안한 공법이다. 제안된 공법은 선행 연구 및 실험에 의해 연성거동을 보여 주었다. 하지만 실구조물 적용 시 안전도를 확실히 하기 위해 장기간 사용 하중에 대한 피로 성능을 검증 해야만 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 부분 비부착된 보를 제작하여 정적실험 결과와 피로실험 후 정적 실험결과를 비교하여 피로에 대한 정적 능력을 검증하였다. 실험 결과, CFRP로 부분비부착된 프리스트레스 콘크리트 보는 피로하중에 대해 양호한 피로성능을 보여주었다.

The load transfer depth of a ground anchor is the minimum length required to transfer the initial prestressing to the grout column through the bonded part. A thorough understanding of the mechanism of load transfer as well as accurate prediction of the load transfer depth are essential for designing an anchorage that has an adequate factor of safety and satisfies implicit economic criteria. In the current research, experimental and numerical studies were conducted to investigate the load transfer mechanism of ground anchors based on a series of laboratory and field load tests. Optical FBG sensors embedded in the central king cable of a seven-wire strand were successfully employed to monitor the changes in tensile force and its distribution along the tendons. Moreover, results from laboratory and in-situ pullout tests were compared with those from equivalent case studies simulated using the finite difference method in the FLAC 3D program. All the results obtained from the two proposed methods were remarkably consistent with respect to the load increments. They were similar not only in trend but also in magnitude and showed more consistency at higher pullout loading stages, especially the final loading stage. Furthermore, the estimated load transfer depth demonstrated a pronounced dependency on the surrounding ground condition, being shorter in hard ground conditions and longer in weaker ones. Finally, considering the safety factor and cost-effective design, the required bonded length of a ground anchor was formulated in terms of the load transfer depth.

Ultrasonic guided waves have attracted increasing attention for non-destructive testing (NDT) and structural health monitoring (SHM) of bridge cables. They offer advantages like single measurement, wide coverage of acoustical field, and long-range propagation capability. To design defect detection systems, it is essential to understand how guided waves propagate in cables and how to select the optimal excitation frequency and mode. However, certain cable characteristics such as multiple wires, anchorage, and polyethylene (PE) sheath increase the complexity in analyzing the guided wave propagation. In this study, guided wave modes for multi-wire bridge cables are identified by using a semi-analytical finite element (SAFE) technique to obtain relevant dispersion curves. Numerical results indicated that the number of guided wave modes increases, the length of the flat region with a low frequency of L(0,1) mode becomes shorter, and the cutoff frequency for high order longitudinal wave modes becomes lower, as the number of steel wires in a cable increases. These findings were used in design of transducers for defect detection and selection of the optimal wave mode and frequency for subsequent experiments. A magnetostrictive transducer system was used to excite and detect the guided waves. The applicability of the proposed approach for detecting and locating wire breakages was demonstrated for a cable with 37 wires. The present ultrasonic guided wave method has been found to be very responsive to the number of brokenwires and is thus capable of detecting defects with varying sizes.

FRP를 이용한 보강법 중에서도 기존에 일반적으로 행해진 보강법은 Plate 또는 Sheet의 형태로 콘크리트 표면에 부착하여 추가적인 강도를 발현하도록 하는 것이다. 그러나 조기 박락파괴, 부착면의 정리, 보강 단부의 앵커시공, 부착면에 대한 내화처리 등의 어려움이 많다. 이러한 문제점들에 대한 방안으로 막대(Rod) 형태인 CFRP-Rod를 보강모체에 홈을 파고 매립하는 NSMR(Near Surface Mounted Reinforcement)공법이 제안되었고, CFRP-Rod의 보강량, 길이, 간격 등의 변수에 의한 휨보강 능력의 평가에 대한 연구가 이루어져왔다. 그러나 구조물에서 CFRP-Rod의 보강은 어느 정도의 하중이 보강부위에 계속 재하된 상태로 보강이 이루어지게 되므로 본 연구에서는 보강전에 가해지는 선하중(Pre-loading)의 크기를 주요변수로 선하중의 크기에 따른 구조물의 거동 특성을 분석하고자 하였고, 선하중의 크기의 결정은 무보강 시험체의 공칭모멘트와의 비로 결정하였다.

Primary stability is a fundamental criteria of implant success. There has been various trials to increase initial stability and bone to implant contact. The objective of osteotome technique is to preserve all the existing bone by minimizing or even eliminating the drilling sequence of the surgical protocol. The bone layer adjacent to the osteotomy site is progressively compacted with various bone condensers(osteotomes) this will result in a denser bone to implant contact. This improved bone density helps to optimize primary implant stability in low density bone. The use of wide implant is one of methods to increse primary stability. They can be used in special situations in which they can increase the surface area available for implant anchorage and improve their primary stability The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the osteotome technique and implant width on primary stability. Osteotome technique was compared with conventional drilling method by resonance frequency measurments according to the implant fixtures diameter. The results were as follows: 1. The average of ISQ value was sightly higher in osteotome technique, but there was not statistically significant in regular and narrow implant(p <0.05). 2. Either osteotome technique or conventional technique. ISQ value was significantly higer as increasing of implant diameter(p <0.05). 3. ISQ value of drilling technique was higer than those of osteotome technique in wide implant. It was assumed to be caused by difference in final preparation diameter.

Structural health monitoring (SHM) has gained in popularity in recent years since it can assess the performance and condition of instrumented structures in real time and provide valuable information to the asset's manager and owner. Operational modal analysis plays an important role in SHM and it involves the determination of natural frequencies, damping ratios and mode shapes of a constructed structure based on measured dynamic data. This paper presents the operational modal analysis and seismic response characterization of the Tsing Ma Suspension Bridge of 2,160 m long subjected to different earthquake events. Three kinds of events, i.e., short-distance, middle-distance and long-distance earthquakes are taken into account. A fast Bayesian modal identification method is used to carry out the operational modal analysis. The modal properties of the bridge are identified and compared by use of the field monitoring data acquired before and after the earthquake for each type of the events. Research emphasis is given on identifying the predominant modes of the seismic responses in the deck during short-distance, middle-distance and long-distance earthquakes, respectively, and characterizing the response pattern of various structural portions (deck, towers, main cables, etc.) under different types of earthquakes. Since the bridge is over 2,000 m long, the seismic wave would arrive at the tower/anchorage basements of the two side spans at different time instants. The behaviors of structural dynamic responses on the Tsing Yi side span and on the Ma Wan side span under each type of the earthquake events are compared. The results obtained from this study would be beneficial to the seismic design of future long-span bridges to be built around Hong Kong (e.g., the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge).
