본 연구에서는 경골 목조 주택 (2${\times}$4 주택, 2${\times}$6 주택), 통나무 주택 및 콘크리트 주택(내단열, 중단열, 외단열) 벽체에 대하여 유한 요소 해석으로 단열 성능을 평가하였고, 표면 결로 현상을 분석하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 벽체의 단열 성능은 정량 골조 2${\times}$6를 사용한 주택이 가장 우수하였고, 경량 골조 2${\times}$4 주택, 통나무 주택, 콘크리트 주택의 순으로 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 2. 콘크리트 벽체의 내단열, 중단열, 외단열의 벽체 구성법에 따른 단열 성능의 차이는 없었으며, 콘크리트 주택에서 단열재의 사용이 필수적이었다. 3. 내부 결로의 경우 콘크리트 벽체의 외단열이 가장 우수한 결로 예방성을 보였다. 이는 외부에 설치된 단열층이 외부의 낮은 온도를 차단해 벽체 전체의 온도를 높게 유지하기 때문이었다. 표면 결로는 모든 벽체에서 나타나지 않았지만, 실내 습도가 높아진다면 콘크리트 주택의 벽체에서 발생할 가능성이 가장 높았다. 본 연구는 벽체내의 단열 성능에 관하여만 분석을 하였고, 열전달 외에 축열성능 등에 관한 고려는 하지 않았으므로 추후에는 여러 가지 복합적인 열적 성능에 관한 연구가 수행되어야 하리라고 생각한다.

The behavior of ramie fibers and some wood elements in the early stage of alkali swelling was examined. When the fibers were treated with alkali solution, they significantly shrank in length and swelled in wall thickness. Ramie fibers showed a shrinkage averaging 23% in length and a swelling averaging 92% in width in 100 seconds treating time. Dimensional changes showed different fashion in each element of woods. The tracheids of latewood especially in Pinus densiflora and Larix kaempferi woods swelled intensively and showed balloon swelling, but in the case of Cryptomeria japonica, it was hardly observed. The swelling morphology of libriform fibers was similar to that of tracheids. The walls of vessel elements and parenchyma cells also swelled considerably in thickness but, no balloon swelling was found in both elements. The differences of swelling in different elements can be interpreted in terms of the differences of organization and/or chemical components of the cell walls.

This study was carried out to get some basic information on mechanical properties of Platanus orientalis L. for the rational utilization of this wood. Relationship of anatomical characteristics with compression strength parallel to grain was analyzed using stepwise regression technique. All possible combination of 8 independent variables were regressed on compression strength parallel to grain. The summarized results in this study were as follows: 1. The compression strength parallel to grain increased with the increase of wood fiber length and wood fiber width. The strength, however, decreased with increase of number of pore per $\textrm{mm}^2$ and tangential diameter of pore. 2. The major factors affecting compression strength parallel to grain in heartwood were length of wood fiber and number of pore $per{\;}{\textrm{mm}^2}$ but width of wood fiber and length of vessel element were the important factors in sapwood.

The rate of fixation of the components were evaluated in CCA-Type B and CCFZ-treated radiata pine sapwood by quantitative analysis of solution expressed from the treated wood. The leaching characteristics of radiata pine blocks treated with CCA-Type B and CCFZ were also evaluated by the AWPA standard leaching test. Both fixation and leaching charactersistics of CCA-Type B were compared with CCA-Type C treated wood samples. The rate of CCA-Type B fixation was a little faster than that of CCFZ. However, significant amounts of arsenic was unfixed in the CCA-Type B treated samples and consequently leached. These significant quantities of arsenic liberated from the CCA-Type B treated wood during service may pose some environmental concerns. Arsenic was no longer detectable from CCA-Type C treated samples when fixation was complete, even though the fixation of CCA-Type C was slower in some degree than CCA-Type B. In summary, it could be said that CCFZ was much safer preservative than CCA-Type B by the criterion based on the relative hazard assessed by absolute amount of unfixed element present in the treated wood. Also the decision that CCA preservative has to move from Type B to Type C should be made sooner or later for continuous use of CCA preservative in the future.

This study was carried out to get some basic information on mechanical properties of Korea Lepidobalanus for rational utilization of wood. Five species of Quercus variabilis, Q. aliena, Q. serrata, Q. mongolica, Q. acutissima belong to Lepidobalanus were investigated in this research. Relationship of anatomical characteristics to compression strength parallel to grain was analyzed using stepwise regression technique. All possible combination of 21 independent variables were regressed on compression strength parallel to grain. The summarized results in this study were as follows: I. In the proportion of wood structural elements, the factors that had the greatest influence on compression strength parallel to grain appeared to be proportion of ray in earlywood in Q. variabilis and Q. acutissima, proportion of wood fiber in latewood in Q. aliena and Q. serrata and proportion of vessel in earlywood in Q. mongolica respectively. 2. In the size of wood element and its structure, the factors that had the greatest influence on compression strength parallel to grain were microfibril angle in Q. variabilis, Q. serrata and Q. mongolica and length of wood fiber in Q. aliena and Q. acutissima.

This experiment was made to find the peripheral variations of annualring widths, the cell dimensions, microfibril angles and bulk densities within each annual-ring of horizontal-growing young tree of beech(Betul a platyphylla var. japonica) and Oak (Quercus variabilis) from the tension to the opposite side. Also a comparision between the features of the obnormal annual ring for horizontal-growing year and normal annual ring for the straight-growing years was made. The dimension of propotion of the element, the microfibril angles and the bulk density decreased or increased continuously toward opposite side which showed minimum or maximum value. The dimension of elements the microfibril angles and the bulk density decreased or increased continuously towards opposite side which showed minimum or maximum value. The dimension of elements. the microfibril angles and the bulk density in the normal annual rings were similar to those in the lateral woods. whereas were significantly more different in the tension wood than in the opposite wood. The features of typical opposite wood in the hardwoods were influenced by the locations within the inclined stems than effects of the decrease in the annual ring width. The oppostie woods in hardwoods did not conform to the tension wood and lateral wood. The abnormal annual ring included the opposite wood, lateral wood similar to normal wood and tension wood having specialized structure even in the same annual ring.

A three dimensional nonlinear finite element analysis is used to study the influence of various design decisions for tieback walls. The numerical model simulates the soldier piles and the tendon bonded length of the anchors with beam elements, the unbonded tendon with a spring element, the wood lagging with the shell elements, and the soil with solid 3D nonlinear elements. The soil model used is a modified hyperbolic model with unloading hysteresis. The complete sequence of construction is simulated including the excavation, and the placement and stressing of the anchors. The numerical model is calibrated against a full scale instrumented tieback wall at the National Geotechnical Experimentation Site (NGES) on the Riverside Campus of Texas A&M University. Then a parametric study is conducted. The results give information on the influence of the following factors on the wall behavior : location of the first anchor, length of the tendon unbonded zone, magnitude of the anchor forces, embedment of the soldier piles, stiffness of the wood lagging, and of the piles. The implications in design are discussed.

A comparative anatomy between the secondary xylem in the root and the stem of some Korean Lauraceae, including 6 genera and 7 species, was carried out in this study. The results are as follows; diameter and length of vessel element and fiber are wider and longer in the root than the stem. The angle of end wall of vessel element is more inclined in the root than the stem. Also more number of bar on the perforation plate of vessel element in root wood is found. From the anatomical characters of root and stem wood in some Lauraceous species, it is suggested that the wood of the root is phylogenetically mote primitive than that of the stem, except the diameter of vessel element.

In recent years, the use of cross laminated timber (CLT) has been evolving. In addition, CLT manufactured with various species such as Japanese cedar has been developed to utilize the local resources in each country. However most factories in Japan produce CLT by bonding the laminae in width direction for orthogonal layers, where grain of element is perpendicular to the grain of outer layer, and this process is considered to be one of the factors that reduce productivity. A new wood based material (hereinafter referred to as Ply-lam) using wooden panel such as plywood for the orthogonal layer was developed in order to improve productivity in CLT manufacturing and improve quality. Japanese cypress lamina was used for the parallel layer, where grain of element is parallel to the grain of outer layer, of CLT and Korean larch plywood was used for the orthogonal layer, in order to effectively use Korean larch and expand the utilization of Japanese cypress. The cross-sectional construction of the Ply-lam was 5-layers 5-plies, and the dimensions were 1000 mm (width) × 150 mm (depth) × 4000 mm (length). As a performance evaluation of the manufactured Ply-lam, strength tests such as out-of-plane bending, in-plane bending, out-of-plane shearing and in-plane shearing tests were carried out. As the result of this study, Ply-lam composed of Japanese cypress lamina panels and Korean larch plywood showed very higher out-of-plane bending strength compared to the standard strength of CLT. And the result obtained in other tests seems to show a sufficiently high value.

1. The physical and anatomical properties investigated in this study are the ones, which may give more effect on absorption of preservatives, such as variation of annual ring, specific gravity, shrinkage, E.M.C. of desorption and adsorption at 70 percent relative humidity condition, general and minute properties of wood. 2. On this study, the positive effects of wood structure, in particular, the appearances of tyloses in vessel element upon the absorption of creosote were observed. 3. Thirteen percent sodium chloride solution treatment and boiling hot water treatment have shown poor results to improve the preservative absorption characteristics of tested species however, some slight difference between treated and control could be seen. (see Tables 6 and 7).
