In automobile highway tunnels, in order to maintain a suitable environment for drivers and traffic, visibility in the tunnel must be maintained, and the concentrations of poisonous substances including carbon monoxide must be kept at or below allowable levels. For this reason, in long tunnels and tunnels with heavy traffic, ventilation facilities are installed. When the ventilation facilities are run at full capacity, the environment in the tunnel is obviously adequately maintained, but this consumes a great deal of electric power. Consequently, a central problem in highway tunnel ventilation control systems is to keep the pollution concentration at or below the allowable level, and thus provide a safe environment for traffic, while consuming as little electricity as possible. This paper introduces an operation method of longitudinal flow ventilation systems with jet-fan, dust collector and vertical ducts.

Over 70% of the land is mountains in Korea, so that many roadways naturally includes tunnels. The air flow inside tunnel has complex characteristics, such that a new flow field is formed by following vehicles passing through the tunnel before previous flow field is stabilized. Due to these time delayed-transient characteristics, the ventilation facility requires the complex control algorithm that can handle adaptive and predictive controls. Also, it needs to be closely related to the disaster prevention system. The technology to integrate these system determines the success of TGMS. The pollutant levels exhausted from the vehicles passing through tunnel depend on vehicle years and passing velocity. They also depend on the slope and altitude of the tunnel. In order to solve this problem, an algorithm for estimating the compensating factors for calculating on design capacity of ventilation facilities was developed. Also, an integrated ventilation control algorithm with disaster prevention program to operate several tunnels was developed based on TGMS.

이 연구는 불꽃파장 감지기술과 불꽃영상 감지기술을 융합한 도로터널용 자동소화설비의 화재감지성능을 평가하기 위한 실험이다. 화재감지성능을 향상시키기 위한 이 융합기술은 화재 시 화원의 위치를 파악하고, 노즐을 화원으로 향하여 화재가 발생한 장소에만 가압수를 방사함으로서 화재진압에 따른 수손피해를 줄이는 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 도로터널의 화재 중 불꽃 및 연기가 선행되는 상황에서 각각 15 m, 20 m, 25 m, 30 m, 35 m 거리에 $70cm{\times}70cm$의 목표물을 두었을 때 화원의 위치를 파악하는지를 실험하였다. 실험결과 농연의 간섭으로 인해 자외선 및 삼파장적외선센서의 감지능력이 감쇠되는 결과를 확인하였다. 또한 농연으로 인해 불꽃이 가려진 경우 이미지센서가 농연을 감지하여 화재신호를 발신함을 확인하였다.

While large-sized facilities (type I II) have been managed systematically after the establishment of the Special Law for Safety Management on Facility, the management of small-sized facilities is relatively poor. The small-sized facilities have been managed by The Basic Law for Disaster and Safety Management, however, it is hard to manage them systematically as related standards are not established. Therefore, this study proposed the management plans for including the facilities such as some road tunnels and utility tunnels, which have the definite manager and a high possibility to harm the public, into type I and II facilities. In addition, it proposed the reinforcement plans of safety management for small-sized and vulnerable facilities such as breast wall and cut slopes, traditional markets and pedestrian bridges, which are fundamental facilities closely related to people's life, although a budget and a man-power are not enough.

There has been a need for the systematic evaluation of the economic efficiency between conventional fluorescent lamp lighting systems that have been used in tunnels and LED lighting systems. This study has evaluated basic tunnel lighting between the conventional fluorescent lighting systems and the LED lighting system using the evaluation tool of tunnel lighting by Life Cycle Cost (LCC) and using the economic efficiency evaluation method. In addition, the unit discount rate of the LED lighting system and the estimated increase in the price of electricity have made the estimated cost of LCC the same if two luminaires were used in the basic part of the tunnel.

Increasing constructions of tunnels are become larger of the size and longer of the length. Construction of the tunnellinings is in poor working environment, for example, dark and narrow underground. Therefore, it is difficult to constructlining by required quality in these poor working conditions. In case of the designing tunnel in large scale, particularly, there may be several problems as follows; delay of construction due to a long time in constructing lining and difficulty of quality control. It is also indicated that longitudinal cracks of them are main defects in domestic tunnels. Therefore, in this study, the precast lining method is introduced for solving problems, which are delay of the tunnel construction a d deterioration of tunnel lining. Precast linings have mainly been constructed in Norway and North Europe. A new construction method of tunnel lining, suitable in domestic situation, is introduced by detailed case study. Also, useful materials for design and construction of Precast lining are presented.

Better understanding the mechanism of black ice occurrence on the road in winter is necessary to reduce the socio-economic damage it causes. In this study, intensive observations of road weather elements and surface information under the influence of synoptic high-pressure patterns (22^nd December, 2020 and 29^th January, and 25^th February, 2021) were carried out using a mobile observation vehicle. We found that temperature and road surface temperature change is significantly influenced by observation time, altitude and structure of the road, surrounding terrain, and traffic volume, especially in tunnels and bridges. In addition, even if the spatial distribution of temperature and road surface temperature for the entire observation route is similar, there is a difference between air and road surface temperatures due to the influence of current weather conditions. The observed road temperature, air temperature and air pressure in Nongong Bridge were significantly different to other fixed road weather observation points.

국토의 70%이상이 산악 지형인 우리나라에서는 지형적인 특성으로 터널 건설이 중요하며, 터널 건설의 증가로 안전한 터널 건설이 중요한 문제로 대두되고 있다. 최근, 도로의 고속화와 직선화로 인해 장대터널 건설이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 장대터널에서의 암반 블록의 수치 모델링을 이용한 터널 안전 시공법을 제안하고, 현장에서 관찰한 불연속면 정보를 근거로 하여 실제 장대터널에 적용했다. 실제 터널현장에 있어서, 암반 블록의 수치 모델링을 이용한 터널 안전 시공법을 위해서 새롭게 개발한 수치해석 프로그램을 사용하여 정확한 키블럭 추출이 가능한 것을 검증하였다. 사용하기 쉬운 사용자 인터페이스를 가지고 있는 본 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 기법은 암반 블럭의 안정성 계산뿐만 아니라 추가 보강대책공의 설계도 가능하다.

The Seoul metropolitan government has installed soundproofing walls in road tunnels to improve the tunnel environment for pedestrians. To evaluate the efficiency of these soundproofing walls, we measured noise levels and concentrations of $PM_{2.5}$ and ultrafine particles (UFP) in tunnels with or without these walls. Although noise and UFP levels were significantly lower in the tunnels with soundproofing walls, $PM_{2.5}$ levels were significantly higher: but were significantly lowered by use of a ventilation system. When $PM_{2.5}$ and noise levels were simultaneously measured in a tunnel with soundproofing wall, noise level was significantly reduced but $PM_{2.5}$ level was significantly higher. It is concluded that the soundproofing wall can protect pedestrians from noise, but not PM. Installation of a ventilation system is recommended for protection of pedestrians in tunnels with soundproofing walls.

Secondary accident is common type of accident which occurs in Korean highway tunnels. Fatality rate of secondary accidents in highway tunnels is six time higher than primary accidents. Video type VMS is a new way of providing information to road users which was recently introduced by Korean government to prevent secondary accidents in highway tunnels. In this study we compared changes in driver's behavior when information is provided by Text type and Video Type VMS. In addition to analyze effects of secondary accident reduction, driving behavior was analyzed based on providing advance information by video type VMS at tunnel entrance. Analysis showed that both text type and video type VMS has similar effect on driver behavior. Video type VMS showed positive effect on driver's behavior to prevent secondary accident when information is provided 1km ahead of accident. Considering there results and the short-term memory characteristics of driver, it was determined that information should be provide at about 650m from the entrance of the tunnel. The results of this study are consistent with the requirement that VMS should be installed at least 500m ahead of tunnel and produce more accurate providing information points. 650m is also appropriate interval for providing information in tunnel to cope with an accident ahead.
