  • The objective of this research was to develop growth media for artificial ground by blending calcined clay and coconut peat. To achieve this, aggregates of clay particles were mixed with disel oil and heated to high temperature(1150~120$0^{\circ}C$) to expand clays. The particle sizes of expanded clay were controlled to 2~5mm in diameter. Then expanded clayes were mixed with coconut peat and changes of soil physicochemical properties and their effect on plant growth of Hedera L. were determined. The infiltration rate of calcined clay was very high, but the water holding capacity, the cation exchange capacity(CEC), and the nutrient contents were low. The characteritics of coconut peat was vice verse to calcined clay. This indicates that the mixture of calcined clay and coconut peat have the better characteristics than each material. As compared to mineral soil, the infiltration rate, the water holding capacity, the CEC and the nutrient contents increased, but bulk density decreased to about 1/4. And, Hedera L. grown in the mixture of calcined clay and coconut peat(6:4, v/v) had higher plant height, longer leaf length, more total number of leaves per plant and fresh weight than that grown in mineral soil, but statistical differences were not observed between two treatments.

  • For the development of reformation material of soft ground using the LD slag, the relation to the particle condition of LD slag and the pH behavior of slag dissolution water, extraction properties of slag, and origination of white water were investigated. When the LD slag is mixed with sea water, the pH of solution ranged between 9.47 and 10.0. On the other hand, when mixed with distilled water, the pH was about 10.4 to 12.1. For the as-received slag and the aged slag in sea water, a pH of 11.5 to 12.0 was observed when the particle size was less than 0.5mm. For the reoxidized slag in seawater, the pH of the solution was lower than 9.5 when the particle size was bigger than 0.075mm. For the aged slag and reoxidized slag, the pH of the solution remained constant when the addition ratio of sea water to the slag was higher than 500 times. The main elements dissolved from the slag were Ca and Mg ions. When the pH went over 9.0, the white water started to font which was caused by the CaCO$_3$and Mg(OH)$_2$.

  • Recently, oystershell wastes cause serious environmental problem and the need for the researches on the recycling of oystershell have been increased and various methods are already in operation. Field plate bearing tests and numerical analysis were performed to investigate the bearing capacity of oystershell filled geotextile gabion which utilized the waste oystershell at the coastal oyster farm site. The waste oystershell mixed soil specimens were prepared for the laboratory test and field test in terms of varying blending ratio of granite soil and oystershell. Based on the cyclic plate load test results, the spring constant, subgrade modulus of ground, and the reinforcing parameters were determined. The field plate load test results indicate that the bearing capacity of the soil ground with the oystershell mixed ratio of 20% is greater than that of the original ground. Two-dimensional numerical analysis was evaluated the expected deformation in the given conditions. Analysis results show a similar characteristics on bearing capacity with the results of the field plate load test. These findings suggest that the oystershells are very promising construction materials for landfill and earth embankment in coastal area.

  • Alluvial soil is one of the most difficult grounds for tunneling works due to the insufficient ground strength and excessive ground water inflow. Dduk island in Seoul has a wide alluvium developed by two rivers, Han and Jung-Ryang. Subway tunnel of $\bigcirc\bigcirc$ line planed across Dduk island has highly poor ground conditions due to small cover and deeply developed alluvium. Moreover, much part of this tunnel is located parallel to the bridge foundations of another railway with a small horizontal distance. Original design was done in 2002 and construction has been in progress. During the construction, tunnel design has been partly changed and adjusted for the complex ground condition and the demand from related organizations. This paper intend to introduce the urban tunnel design and construction in alluvial soils. This line could be divided three sections(A, B, C) according to ground and adjacent conditions. Section A is featured by mixed tunnel faces consisted with alluvial soils and weathered or weak rocks. The feature of section B is that tunnel underpasses near the bridge foundations of another subway. Lastly, section C with a very short length is the most difficult construction conditions due to the small cover, poor ground, obstacles on and underneath ground surface.

  • The mineral admixtures, ground granulated blast furnace slag (GSB) and fly ash (FA), were mixed with ordinary portland cement(OPC) in order to reduce temperature rise and slump loss in concrete. In according to concrete replaced with 30% of GBS, the compressive strength of that developed to 574 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at age of 28days and maximum temperature decreased to the extent of $5^{\cire}C$. When GBS and FA are mixed with concrete, it can be estimated that mix proportions of them have to be taken into consideration.

  • In order tohave a betterunderstanding of thefavorable effect ofground granulated blast-furnace slag and fly ash, slump loss, temperature risingand compressive strength of concrete were investigated into diffrent conditions. When slag was mixed with ordinary portland cement as30%, slump loss gotto some 18% at 60min, maximum temperatureto some $43^{\cire}C$ at 180min, compressive strength similar to that of ordinary portland concrete at 28 days. Therefore it wasnoted thatslump loss andmaximum teaperaturerising of concrete were very reduced according to ground granulated blast-furnace slag and fly ash mixed with ordinary portland cement.

  • This paper presents fundamental experiment for the properties of high performance concrete in its fresh and hardened state made with ground granulated blast-furnace (GGBF) slag. The result is that the effect of decreasing xoncrete temperature is to the mixing ratio of GGBF slag, but it presents disadvantage in the slump loss phase. In addition to, we know that the splitting tensile strength, compressive strength and elastic modulus of concrete mixed with high fineness GGBF slag are increased at age 28days.

  • This paper explains a technique to improve the fault coverage of oscillation-test [1-5] for linear analog circuits. The transient behavior of the virtual ground is monitored during oscillation to extract information of the circuit. The limitation of the oscillation-test is analyzed, and an efficient signature analysis technique is proposed to maximize the fault coverage. The experimental result proves that the parametric fault coverage can be significantly increased by the proposed technique.

  • 'Burn-Out' is a kind of printing process that can create many textural effects, also high added value of the fabrics. In the previous studies, it is examined how to burn out the cellulose part of the velvet and the polyester/cellulosic fiber mixed fabric without damage of the other part and the effects of process conditions. In this study, dyeing properties of the colored burn-out printing were investigated with various conditions onto the polyester/cellulosic fiber mixed fabrics with red disperse dye. As a results, the apparent color depth (K/S) is increased with increasing of concentration of dye. The optimum treatment conditions without any shrinkage or occurrence of yellowness on the polyester ground fabrics are fixation temperature of $140^{\circ}C$ and time of 3 minutes.
