The safety and serviceability of concrete structures are influenced by corrosion of steel bars in concrete. Several methods have been available to protect the reinforcing bars from corrosion. Among them, the surface coating method is one of the easiest way to apply to concrete structures. However, the realistic guideline for surface coating materials has not been established yet in this country. In this study, in order to establish a reasonable technical guidelines which include the test method, quality criteria, and construction method, the performances of surface coating materials were evaluated.

This paper deals with the technical problems for the protection devices, by simulating test facilities of protection coordination for Photovoltaic systems. In order to analyze the operation characteristics for the protection devices in the case that the Photovoltaic systems with bi-directional power supply are located in the feeder, this paper proposes the test facilities composed of model distribution system, protection device and model Photovoltaic systems. By performing the simulation for operation characteristics for the protection devices based on the test facilities, this paper presents the malfunction mechanism for the protection devices. The test results show that this paper is practical and effective for the technical guideline for the Photovoltaic systems.

This paper attempts to show how DEA(data envelopment analysis), a nonparametric productivity analysis method, can be employed for insurance companies to improve their respective efficiencies and competitiveness. Specifically, we measured relative technical efficiencies and returns to scale of 11 Korean property-liability insurance companies using BCC model, and raised several issues including the cause of inefficiency, benchmarking toward reference set and resource allocation concerning the insurance companies. Also, in order to monitor the variability of the research results over periods, we employed longitudinal analysis to see the moving patterns of technical efficiencies, returns to scale and frequencies included in the reference set of the individual insurance companies under consideration. The methodology and the results in this paper may also serve as a useful guideline for individual insurance companies to set their respective business strategies.

Design of main and crescent bridges in Palm Jebel Ali, Dubai, is based on AASHTO LRFD. Additional standards and reports are also considered to reflect regional conditions. In addition, JAFZA's Bridge Design Guideline is reviewed for their approval. This article focuses on modified design requirements such as load and durability fit to the middle east area. Technical specifications are mentioned briefly.

Recently the Ministry of Finance and Economy of Korea launched two new project delivery systems called "Best Value Contract (Design-Bid-Build)" and "Bridging Contract (Design-Build)" in October of 2007 by revising enforcement ordinances of "Act on Contracts to Which the State is a Party". These project delivery systems require the bidders to submit technical proposal adjusted to the project characteristics and objectives for selecting the contractor by evaluating technical proposals. This research aimed to suggest guideline to effectively operate the project delivery systems described above. To reach the goal of the research, the framework of the operation model was developed, which includes the four categories: the standard bidding process, the technical proposal requirements, the technical proposal evaluation criteria, and the award methods. The contents of the four categories above were fulfilled throughout conferring with the advisory experts. In particular, the award methods, which are the important decision-making factor in the perspective of the owner, consist of four types: Low Bid-Fully Qualified, Weighted Criteria, Adjusted Bid, and Adjusted Score. The quantitative features and application criteria of these four types of award methods were suggested throughout the simulation using the virtual case.

The purpose of this research is to suggest a theoretical base and guideline for the national scientific and technical information center which is assigned to take charge of the management and building knowledge and information infrastructure of the national scientific technology. And the objective of this study is to contribute to strengthen the need of the building of the national scientific and technical information center and provide operation programs and vision toward information center which will be established later. This study suggests a plan and strategy which make it possible to conduct functions as the national repository, clearinghouse, and portal gateway of the electronic resource and propose space program for the optimal building construction. Therefore, the contents of this study cover the building of the national scientific and technical information center as well as the basic plan of scale and space program, validity analysis of site location and environment.

From 1990s, the lunar exploration programs, suspended over 20 years after the project Apollo's first successful human landing on the Moon in 1969, have been restarted according to a revived interest in Moon. In recent, several nations progress their own lunar exploration program successfully. In this report, to investigate the technical trends of the onboard propulsion system for the lunar orbiter, technical features related to the performance of the propulsion system of the lunar orbiters developed since 1990 are surveyed. In the future, it is expected that this technical report can provide a fundamental guideline for selecting a proper type of the onboard propulsion system for the domestic lunar orbiter.

This study aims to contribute to urban policy for more effective disaster prevention, as abnormal natural disasters are becoming more frequent. Up to now, the urban plan for disaster prevention in Korea merely includes basic principles and necessities of measures as an early stage. Furthermore, there are difficulties to make specific programs because the legal system, technical instruments, and financial supports are not sufficient. Therefore, this study figures out problems in the current plan related to urban prevention after analyzing the legal system and practices. Resulting from case studies in developed countries, the study draws significant implications, as follows: enhancing legally binding force; improving the procedures for the programs; establising technical infrastructure. It first suggests a way for the urban policy for disaster prevention by considering our local features comprehensively. It then defines the roles of central, local governemnts and research institutions, and the procedure for urban disaster prevention planning building on the individual roles. This study concludes that an emphasis should be placed on institutional tools necessary to publish technical guideline and establish the system so that urban planners more easily access to disaster risk information.
