Long-term Performance Evaluation of the Asphalt Overlay designed by the Seoul Pavement Design Method
PURPOSES : This study evaluates the long-term performance of the asphalt overlay designed by the Seoul pavement design method which determines overlay thickness by considering existing pavement conditions, traffic volume, and bearing capacity of the pavement.
METHODS : A total of 76 sections including 17 control sections and 59 design sections were constructed under various traffic conditions, overlay thicknesses and asphalt mixtures. The performance of the pavements has been monitored up to 60 months in terms of surface distresses, rutting, and longitudinal roughness. The service life of the pavements was estimated to be the period when the Seoul pavement condition index (SPI) becomes 6.0, i.e., a rehabilitation level.
RESULTS : Overall, the service life of the pavements was 72 months in the control and 120 months for the design sections. For relatively thinner overlay sections than designed, the service life reduced significantly; 36 months for 15cm thick overlay and 120 months for 25cm thick overlay. The service life of the pavement in the bus-only lane was 78 months, which is 30 months shorter than that in mixed-traffic lanes. Out of the bus-only lanes, 56% of the pavement along bus stop was deteriorated early to be a poor condition while only 2% of the pavement in a driving lane was degraded to be poor. The overlay with Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) in the wearing surface had 38% longer life than that with conventional dense graded mixtures.
CONCLUSIONS : Most of the overlays sections designed by the Seoul pavement design method were expected to survive 10 years, except for bus-only lanes. The control sections having 5 to 10 cm thick overlays showed significant lower performance than the design sections. Thus proper thickness and materials considering the characteristics of existing pavement and traffic volumes should be applied to secure the service life of overlays.

PURPOSES : Preventive pavement maintenance is an economical and efficient method of infrastructure management. This study aims to improve the performance of cold thin-layer asphalt pavement, which is mainly used in earthwork pavement, and for bridge overlays and structures. METHODS : A cold asphalt mixture of modified emulsified asphalt and RAP was prepared for cold recycled thin-layer asphalt pavement. The performance of the mixture as a function of fiber reinforcement to improve flexural strength and crack resistance was evaluated.
RESULTS : The use of RAP aggregate in cold asphalt mixture was found to increase the cohesive strength of the mixture and improve the wet abrasion resistance due to the effect of the residual binder. As a result of the loaded wheel test and flexural tension test with the addition of fiber reinforcement, it was found that the crack resistance of 0.4 % glass fiber was the best, and especially, the flexibility at low temperature was excellent.
CONCLUSIONS : The cold recycled thin-layer asphalt pavement mixture has improved cohesive strength, flexural strength, and crack resistance compared to existing cold asphalt pavement materials, so it will contribute to economical and effective maintenance in preventive maintenance of bridge overlays and structural pavements.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of spraying dust suppressants in relation to the condition of road pavement in South Korea and to develop an optimal management method by continuously measuring re-suspended dust concentrations using a vehicle-based measurement.
METHODS : Indoor experiments were conducted to select suppressants suitable for local conditions to reduce reducing road dust, which were identified through literature review. Data collection followed the evaluation method by selecting a section sprayed with dust suppressants and a non-sprayed section within the service road.
RESULTS : The BPT experiment is designed to ensure the skid resistance of the road when dust suppressants are sprayed on the road. The Environmental toxic tests for PM10, HCHO, and TVOC all met the daily indoor air quality standards recommended in Korea for determining stability. Comparison of PM10 contents before and after spraying of the test road with dust suppressants and the non-sprayed section, it was confirmed that the dust suspended by the external environment may be reduced, but the amount of dust remaining on the road may increase. After 4 hours, when the water had evaporated, the dust suppressants remained effective and lasted for two-days.
CONCLUSIONS : The concentration of fine dust in South Korea varies with the average duration of highly concentrated fine dust being 26.5 h nationwide, 20.5 h in the Seoul metropolitan area, and 25.1 h in Gyeonggi-province, suggesting a duration of one to two days. Thus, the fine dust problem can be solved by using dust suppressants.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to develop an optimal placement of the overturning prevention device based on a 3D object model during the development of the girder-type overturning prevention device for the remote control construction of bridges
METHODS : Based on existing construction methods and literature research, a detailed design model of a phase-optimized conduction prevention device is presented. The 3D-object model data, optimal placement, and an operating range of the equipment developed for the remote control construction of bridge girders were considered.
RESULTS : The shape of the overturning prevention device was selected taking into account the dimensions and operating range of numerous devices developed for the remote control construction of the bridge. In particular, the detachable device was chosen to allow a trouble-free construction considering the spacing between the pier cap of the bridge and the girders. The overturning prevention device presented based on this 3D object model will be manufactured as a mock-up and used for a demonstration project on remote control bridge construction. CONCLUSIONS : This will enable easy and economical construction as this development will support remote control construction of bridge girders to avoid accidents such as workers falling from high places like piers.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to develop regression models for surface distress (SD), rut depth (RD), and international roughness index (IRI) of Jeju Island local road by analyzing the correlations between the pavement performance and its influencing factors. METHODS : First, the differences between pavements in inland Korea and Jeju Island in terms of performance and influencing factors were investigated. Influencing factors were assigned to pavement sections on Jeju Island using the inverse distance weighting method, and the correlations between the pavement performance and influencing factors were analyzed. As a result, maximum temperature, heat wave days, annual temperature range, precipitation days, precipitation intensity, ESAL, etc. were determined as independent variables for the pavement performance prediction models. Multiple regression analysis was performed to develop the pavement performance models using the selected independent variables.
RESULTS : The RD, maximum temperature, and precipitation days were determined to be the independent variables for the SD predictive model. The SD, maximum temperature, annual temperature range, heat wave days, and precipitation days were selected as independent variables of the RD prediction model. In addition, the RD, annual temperature range, heat wave days, precipitation days, and ESAL were selected as independent variables for the IRI prediction model.
CONCLUSIONS : As a result of the study, an actual forecast model for SD, RD, and IRI was developed. Based on this model, it is possible to estimate the predictive value of the missing performance data in the studied interval. If the factors affecting performance are managed in terms of maintenance beyond a certain level, it can help those responsible for road maintenance to rationally select the maintenance method and timing.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to present a practical application method for measuring the setting time of concrete in the field, considering different concrete blending and curing environments.
METHODS : In the experimental environment of the concrete setting experiment, a mold was made in the laboratory, and the curing temperature was performed at laboratory room temperature (20-25 ℃), heater (30 ℃), and dryer (40 ℃). In the field, the experimental method was performed in summer and autumn, setting experiments on penetration resistance, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and semi-calorimeter.
RESULTS : The result of the concrete setting time experiment was that the early setting time was achieved in the combination of filash and slag when the concrete was mixed, and the setting time in the curing environment was the same as the early setting time in the field. The setting time measurement method shows the correlation of the high crystal coefficient at UPV with 0.99 based on PR and the good ratio of 92 % to 107 % on average. In addition, the semi-calorimeter shows a good crystal coefficient of 0.96 to 0.99 and a good setting time of 88 % to 101 % on average. CONCLUSIONS : The analysis of the setting time of the concrete shows that the curing temperature is more affected than the mixture, and it is considered that the UPV test, which evaluates the reliability of the degree of purification, is easy to sampie among the three methods.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to investigate the spatiotemporal factors influencing the waiting time of special transportation systems for disabled people in Seoul, Korea.
METHODS : A parametric survival analysis was employed to identify the primary factors influencing longer waiting times, primarily because censoring data were included in the analysis. For the analysis, one-year historical data collected from the Seoul Call-taxi for the disabled in 2019 were used. Using normal probability plots and Anderson-Darling statistics, a log-normal model was estimated to fit the data.
RESULTS : In terms of time, there was a time zone in which the service level in terms of waiting time, such as late-night and dawn, decreased depending on the time of day called by call taxi users with disabilities in Seoul. Moreover, the waiting time on weekends was shorter than on weekdays. Spatially, when a user requests a service, there are many nearby vehicles when the traffic conditions nearby are good, and the waiting time tends to decrease near the depot. CONCLUSIONS : The existing system needs to reflect the increase in vulnerable times and the improvement of the dispatch method, considering the difference in the primary purpose of travel on weekdays and weekends. Additionally, to resolve the phenomenon in which vehicles are concentrated in a specific area, waiting time can be improved using operational strategies that can uniformly distribute vehicles in space, such as spatial subdivision of depots, real-time monitoring, and relocation.

PURPOSES : Sleeping hours are an critical factor that influences the lives of office workers. As for sleep characteristics, it is crucial to spend a lot of time; however, it is also important to ensure satisfactory sleep. This study attempted to analyze the factors affecting sleep in terms of time and satisfaction.
METHODS : Sleep duration, which is a quantitative component of sleep, was composed of a continuous variable, and multiple regression analysis was employed. For the qualitative component of sleep, sleep time satisfaction was used, satisfaction was composed of binary type, and binary logistic regression analysis was used. Transportation characteristics, including personal and work characteristics, and other factors were used as independent variables. RESULTS : As a result of the analysis, various influencing variables were derived for both sleep duration and satisfaction. The higher the satisfaction with commuting time and commuting fee, age group, health level, and leisure time, the higher the sleeping hours and satisfaction. However, the higher the income or the choice of long-distance transportation, the lower both sleeping hours and satisfaction. Moreover, if they choose a car, have a high academic background, or have children, sleeping hours decrease, but satisfaction is high. Males, singles, and office workers with fewer than five employees had longer sleep hours but lower satisfaction. CONCLUSIONS : Commuting time and work characteristics have varying effects on sleep activity. Therefore, an alternative solution that can enhance both sleeping hours and sleeping hour satisfaction is proposed through the results of this study.

PURPOSES : In this study, model-agnostic methods are applied for interpreting machine learning models, such as the feature global effect, the importance of a feature, the joint effects of features, and explaining individual predictions.
METHODS : Model-agnostic global interpretation techniques, such as partial dependence plot (PDP), accumulated local effect (ALE), feature interaction (H-statistics), and permutation feature importance, were applied to describe the average behavior of a machine learning model. Moreover, local model-agnostic interpretation methods, individual conditional expectation curves (ICE), local surrogate models (LIME), and Shapley values were used to explain individual predictions.
RESULTS : As global interpretations, PDP and ALE-Plot demonstrated the relationship between a feature and the prediction of a machine learning model, where the feature interaction estimated whether one feature depended on the other feature, and the permutation feature importance measured the importance of a feature. For local interpretations, ICE exhibited how changing a feature changes the interested instance’s prediction, LIME explained the relationship between a feature and the instance’s prediction by replacing the machine model with a locally interpretable model, and Shapley values presented how to fairly contribute to the instance’s prediction among the features.
CONCLUSIONS : Model-agnostic methods contribute to understanding the general relationship between features and a prediction or debut a model from the global and/or local perspective, securing the reliability of the learning model.

PURPOSES : In this study, we quantitatively prove the rubber necking phenomenon for highway traffic accidents and develop a calculation model based on the influencing factors.
METHODS : Vehicle detector speed data in the opposite direction to the accident point were used based on the accident data on highways over the past three years, and a comparative verification was performed between nearby vehicle detector data to verify the reliability of the data. Accordingly, a binomial logistic model, ordinal probit regression model, and multilinear regression model were developed to compare the orientation.
RESULTS : There was a difference in the influencing factors based on the dependent variable, and the day of the week, vehicle type, weather, longitudinal slope, and median height had an effect. Through a regression analysis, an influence coefficient was derived to calculate the driving speed deceleration value by rubbernecking. The results of the model analysis proved that the speed reduction caused by rubbernecking was more evident during the daytime than at night, during weekends compared to weekdays, and the speed reduction was more obvious for heavy vehicles compared to other types of vehicles. It can also be concluded that longer clearance time, higher accident severity, and higher traffic volume affect traffic delay. To verify the data and model equation, the mean prediction bias (MPB) and mean absolute deviation (MAD) were calculated for hundred cases randomly extracted from the collected accident data. These results were excellent.
CONCLUSIONS : It can be developed into a human-engineered model that reflects various road/facility conditions, such as highways, other lanes, general roads, and roads without a median strip. This study is meaningful as a basic study on the quantitative effect of rubber necking.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to perform traffic flow characteristics analysis for each point of the long-term work zones and to propose an estimated capacity method to support the establishment of traffic flow management strategies for the long-term work zones.
METHODS : The study explained the difference in traffic flow characteristics between the short-term and the long-term work zones, and estimated the capacity of the long-term work zones. The analysis data were collected from five points of long-term work zones of the twolane highway. And VDS and DSRC data were applied to validate data.
RESULTS : The characteristics of traffic flow at each measurement point in the long-term work zones showed some differences, among which the capacity was estimated as the starting point to be 1,200 pcphpl and the ending point, 1,400 pcphpl. The delay length was estimated by applying the queuing theory based on the capacity of the start point where the bottleneck starts. As a result of verifying the congestion length based on space diagram map analysis, it was determined that the capacity calculation value and estimation methodology presented in this study were appropriate.
CONCLUSIONS : The long-term work zones are mixed with different characteristics of roads, so as the capacity values depending on the analysis location. Therefore, it is necessary to select analysis points and methodologies for estimating capacity and delay depending on the purpose of the analysis, such as estimating the maximum queue length or analyzing the maximum travel time. Through this study, it is expected that by providing accurate information on congestion in advance, road users can detour to other roads, and construction officials can adjust the construction plan to minimize congestion in the construction section.
