Recently remote sensing technology is applied for construction projects planning and design areas by use of high resolution satellite images according to engineering application technology in the various experimental tasks. In this study, It was applied for optimum route selection methods and basic design by comparing to present railway and new expand dual railway route on the new construction plan path of 20km at national railway lines, and then showed 3-dimensional images and fly simulation images to possibility for various application as low cost and short time compare to airplane and helicopters survey methods. As a results of its applied, It gained the results not only improvement of present methods but also real various application possibilities.

Recently the train indusrty come to the fore because of Punctual, eco-friendly transportation system and becoming the main transportation. The construction plans for the trian depot for train's maintenance and storage increase constantly. For past few years, there were many construction plans, Bubal train depot, Gwangju train depot, Duckha train depot. Proper track distribution plan is important to carry out the design of railway depot for efficient maintenance operation and train storage. Through the proper design of track distribution plan, we can shorten the moving time, train movement distance, waiting time in train depot. In this paper, the verification of the track distribution plan's efficiency and appropriateness for railway depot as Bubal train depot's plan is studied and analyzed with the train depot management simulation program-Posrail(v1.0).

To install heavy structures in the railway bridges, crane methods or launching methods using temporary structure have been applied. These methods are uneconomical because working yard is required, temporary cut of rail system, etc. In this study, various construction methods has been developed which are suitable to the filed conditions. In the case of simple span structure like plate girder bridges, the girder is loaded to troy system at the working yard and then transferred to the working place. To lift and lower the girder system, a new transfer system was developed. Different methods each for simple span bridge girder and long span girder were developed and detailed work procedures were proposed. Using these methods, the heavy structures can be installed with simple and safe work procedures and the construction cost and duration can be reduced.

The first high speed railway in Korea was opened to traffic on April 1, 2004 and the second phase will be opened on November 1. 2010. Many technical problems that occurred during construction have been solved. In its early period of project, difficulties were encountered in design, construction of high speed line. because most of Korean railway engineers were familiar only with conventional railway. Now they understand the various phenomena occuring during operation of the KTX and have accumulated extensive technical knowhow. Valuable experiences and knowledges that have been obtained from frials and errors will lead to further improvement for the future project.

Expansion joint is the absorbing structure when the upper structure of bridge have the drying shrinkage and creep from the change of temperature or construction badness. Because it has the fatigue from continuous vehicles traffic. the durability and performance is verified by the static and dynamic loading test In this study. we make the decision that T-MAT type expansion joint is applied in railway bridge and the expansion joint was tested by the criterion of Korea High Speed Rail Construction Authority.

The safety evaluations of railway wheelsets make use of the static fracture toughness obtained in ingot materials. The static fracture toughness of wheelset materials has been extensively studied by experiments, but the dynamic fracture toughness with respect to wheelset materials has not been studied enough yet. It is necessary to evaluate the characteristics of the fracture mechanics depending on each location for a full-scale wheelset for high-speed trains, because the load state for each location of the wheelset while running is different the contact load between the wheel and rail, cyclic stress in the wheel plate, etc. This paper deals with the fracture toughness depend on load rates. The fracture toughness depending on load rate data shows that once the downward curve from quasi-static values was reached, subsequent values showed a slow increase with respect to the impact velocity. This means that dynamic fracture toughness should be considered in the design code of the wheelset material.

Turnkey contract system is an effective ordering system for the ordering organizations that technical engineers are insufficient for their construction projects. It is possible to reduce project duration and to improve project quality in an integrated contract system between design and construction. However, owners can have a difficulty caused from unitary responsibility system. This study analyzes present situation and problems of turnkey contract system including railway projects. The result includes various methods for improving the system based on the analysis of bid price and selection procedure.

Korean Train Express (KTX) has opened to commercial traffic since 2004 at maximum speed 300km/h, and Korea High-speed Railway (HSR-350x) was developed by Korean government, several institutes, and related companies. HSR-350x is now being investigated its performance and tested at the high speed line. In 2004 December, HSR-350x was run over 350km/h and proved its running performance. These high speed railways have 12 motors to transfer the traction effort or the braking force. In this paper, authors propose the construction the measurement system for monitoring the force transferred to the train from the motor. The system is installed to the tripod shaft which is located between the reduction gears and it measures the mechanical load directly.

Recently, the important of Progress Management is being emphasized because construction have become more complex and increasingly specialized. The existing progress control method needs to be changed because only numerical information is being provided and is very difficult to understand all poor progress. To resolve these problem, this study suggests a simulation method for progress management by using 4D CAD System because 4D CAD system has effective functions to convert numerical information to visualized information. The suggested simulation method not only are reviewed an application of railway construction but enables managers to understand problems in managing this system for verifying the suggested simulation method.
