  • Heavy damages to properties with attendant losses were frequently caused by tornadoes in recent years. This natural hazard is one of the most destructive wind events that must be fully studied and well understood in order to keep the safety of structures and infrastructure facilities. On June 23, 2016, a severe tornado, which is an Enhanced Fujita (EF) 4 storm, occurred in the rim of a coastal city named as Yancheng in China. Numerous low-rise buildings as well as facilities (e.g., transmission towers) were destroyed or damaged. In this paper, damages to structures and infrastructure facilities by the severe tornado are reviewed. The collapses of residential buildings, industrial structures and other infrastructure facilities are described. With an overview of the damages, various possible mechanisms of the collapse are then discussed and utilized to reveal the initiation of the damage to various facilities. It is hoped that this paper can provide a concise but comprehensive reference for the researchers and engineers to help understand the tornado effects on structures and expose the vulnerabilities that need to be improved in current wind-resistant design practices.

  • Purpose: The first thing to be done in promoting community care is local diagnosis. Therefore, this study attempted to derive the physical infrastructure to be diagnosed, and to develop diagnostic items and diagnostic indicators applicable to this. Methods:: First, the physical infrastructure related to the community care is derived. And the diagnosis items are derived using the checklist of 'community support and health services' in the WHO Guide for Global age-friendly cities. Next, by analyzing previous studies, we develop diagnostic indicators for each diagnostic item and explore their applicability. Results: As a result of deriving the physical infrastructure for each area of housing, health service, and nursing care for community care, 22 facilities were derived for 9 types. Diagnosis items for the facilities are 1)regional equity, 2)proximity between facilities, 3)transportation access, 4)regional use, 5)barrier-free design, 6)diversity of facilities, and a total of 14 diagnostic indicators was derived. We reviewed and suggested the applicability of diagnostic items and indicators by each physical infrastructure. Implications: For the realization of community care, local diagnosis should not be limited to sim- ply grasping the presence or absence of facilities and the total amount. Instead it should strengthen capabilities by conducting diagnosis to understand the performance of facilities.

  • Living infrastructure facilities are concentrated in cities with high population density, it is necessary to supply basic living infrastructure facilities to promote welfare in rural areas. The establishment of basic living infrastructure is the minimum right for daily living of local residents. It is supplied by considering national economic and social characteristics through national minimum standards, but it is limited to be practically applied to rural areas where many villages are dispersed in large areas. There is a situation. Therefore, it is necessary to supply systematic and quantitative facilities by analyzing villages that do not meet the minimum standards of basic living infrastructure in rural areas and by considering their characteristics. The purpose of this study is to identify the basic living infrastructure facilities of village units and analyze the characteristics of each village for Boeun-gun, Chungcheongbuk-do.

  • All these days, we achieved the result of our efforts on agricultural facilities by a huge budget for stable agricultural infrastructure development. But it is anticipated that the cost of maintenance is increased from now on since we've focused on installing facilities(agricultural infrastructures) in quantity more than in quality. Furthermore we are short of efficient management system(S/W) because of active and overall support for facilities expansion(H/W). This study is focus on how to improve our agricultural infrastructure for not only to maintain eco-friendly facilities but also to prepare water shortage era.

  • Since the industrial revolution in 19 century, there had been a pro and con argument on which is better solution between privatization and nationalization in developing the infrastructure projects and in maintaining the infrastructure facilities worldwide. This paper introduces the privatization-nationalization wheel along with its advantage and disadvantage. At this stage according to the global trend, it is the time that the most of infrastructure projects are being developed by the private sector in the industrialized countries. It is mainly because the product or the services produced by the facilities of the infrastructure should be fully paid back by the end users according to the mechanism of the market economy. Some solutions have been suggested for the future development of infrastructure projects in S-N Korea.

  • The purpose of this study is to secure reasonable transportation infrastructure stock for enhancing national competitiveness in Korea. National competitiveness may be defined as a country's overall capacity to create the most effective social structure, institutions and policies that allow her company within the national boundary to be more competitive in the world market. If Korea's transportation infrastructure stock is not sufficient and a connection among transportation facilities is not efficient, we should pay the social and economic cost. As a result, we worry that national competitiveness may drop. Some methods to maintain or to increase the national investment for transportation infrastructure that are suggested from this study are as follows: Firstly, we need to operate the Spcial Account for Traffic Facilities. Secondly, the investment should be focused on the facilities and districts in needs. Thirdly, PFI (private finance initiative) policy should be aimed at investing for the highly economic-valued projects.

  • With Beijing's success in bidding for the 2008 Olympic Games, the increasing demand for infrastructure development and reduced public sector funding capacity has created a significant funding gap which calls for alternative project delivery methods such as Public-Private Partnership (PPP). Although the exploration of infrastructure projects using PPP model have been practiced since the late 80s, the $560 million National Stadium which served as the main venue for the Olympic Games is the first stadium project in China to be delivered under PPP operation. The project is generally considered successful despite the concession transfer in 2009 with concern of better serving the public interest. Compared to other infrastructure projects such as transportation, waste management and water management, the development of major sports facilities for mega-sports events with PPP has its own unique features and is subject to different major risks. This research identifies and analyzes critical risks in the implementation of PPP in major sports facility development through case study of the National Stadium project. A questionnaire survey and several interviews are conducted to solicit expert opinions from experienced practitioners. The purpose is to provide additional insights in risk management strategies and opportunities in China's PPP implementations in major sports facilities for policy makers and private sectors involved with investment decisions in future similar infrastructure development.

  • The purpose of this paper is to analyze the implementation of the GIS infrastructure systems for the u-City, GIS base u-City represents spatial information derived fields, such as geographical distribution of the urban boundaries, physical configuration of the urban locations and cultural characteristics of the urban history. These three aspects relate to urban infrastructure systems implementation, urban monitoring center implementation, and spatial database implementation. In terms of the GIS based u-Ci쇼 urban infrastructure implementation systems, the u-City depends on IT contents and spatial features. IT contents are strongly related to IT839 strategy due to the national agenda is "u-Korea". GIS should contribute to u-City construction through the spatial analyses methods. For these methods various GIS functions will guide to u-City's distribution, location, and characteristics of urbanization. The infrastructure consists of road and road facilities, underground facilities, related agencies facilities, dispatch systems, environmental systems, and urban planning. These six units of the urban infrastructures have spatial databases that consist of spatial configuration, such as dots, lines, and polygons in order to draw the spatial distribution of the u-City GIS based u-City urban infrastructure implementation systems should deal with It convergence to generate fusion affects.
