Recently, many researchers have been executed on functional concrete in various fields. Especially, some researchers on added material for functional concrete are executed to improve the indoor air quality in daily living space. The indoor air quality was estimated by reducing capacity for the concentrations of formaldehyde. The main objective of this study is to provide a model to predict optimal amount of added material for functional concrete.

As a results, it is occurred the damage in the members of about 6% in a total locations and the 65.7% of the damaged header are concentrated in the lower part of crib wall. Therefore, it is analyzed causes of wooden crib wall depending on the setup position and the kinds of members. It is considered basically the members of various forms of distortion and the grain affecting.
Causing damage to the actual structure is not easy for new evaluation techniques to validate the damage. Creating a new structure for the validation that is expensive and requires a lot of time. So to verify the techniques using scale model is a common and effective way. For the validation of new techniques, it was to make a scale model of the cable-stayed bridge type and various damages were caused to the bridge model.
Recently, Maintenance and inspection of plant are now being actively studied with the development of plant industry. In this paper, A leak detection in piping facilities using thermal imaging camera is proposed. This method was verified by laboratory experiment. In future, Appropriate algorithm will be applied to this method for real time detection and finally applied to the plant that is the ultimate goal of this study.
Structural dynamic properties such as natural frequency depend not only on damage but also environmental condition (i.e., Temperature). Without removing the variation of environmental condition in the damage detection, false-positive or negative damage diagnosis may occur so that structural health monitoring becomes unreliable. One of methods used to solve this problem is to construct regression model based on structural responses with the environmental factors. However, it is difficult to determine where and which environmental variables to measure. One alternative is to remove the variability due to environmental variation without measurement of environmental variables. However, the performance of this method is depending on how to define the reference data set. Generally, there is no prior information on reference condition (i.e., healthy condition) during data mining. Reference condition is determined based on subjective perspective with human-intervention. To overcome the drawback of current methods, this paper investigates adaptive PCA technique for the monitoring of structural damage detection under environmental change. This method is not required to determine the reference condition and measure the environmental variables. Proposed method is tested on numerically simulated data for a range of noise in measurement under environmental variation.
To maintain the tension force of PS members is a very important issue for the safety of PSC structures. In practice many cases of corrosions and tensile force reduction in PC tendons, however, are reported from various causes. In the near future, thus the estimation of tensile forces in PC tendons would be major work of maintaining PSC structures. In this study, the approach using magnetic characteristics of PC tendons to estimate tensile force was investigated. Using simple but reasonable test procedures, the possibility of the approach like this was verified.
In case of measuring strength of concrete using ultrasonic pulse testing, setting reasonable range of limitations to get reliable strength data results is highly recommended. To resolve this issue, ultrasonic testings were performed on several concrete specimens ,randomly selected and contain strength ranged from 20 to 200MPa, to measure values of ultra sonic velocity and actual strength. Then advanced data analyses were performed based on the results from the experimental works.

Railway construction is divided into trackbed and railway. The railway is divided into the gravel ballast and the concrete ballast track structures. In recent years, concrete ballast track construction is increasing for Durability and Maintenance. But During construction or operation for characteristics of concrete, defects of sleepers and concrete ballast track may arise. Some of the defects was analyzed that the main pattern and this study will be introduced in that pattern.
This study proves that the prestress loss occurs at the continuous joint by the local bending of tendon due to the construction deviation and the curvature of radius. Also, a method that can reduce the prestress loss is proposed, and proved by the experiment.
Maintenance of plant facilities are becoming important due to lots of recent plant construction. While maintenance of plant facilities are performed, maintenance of plant structures are usually not carried out properly. In this paper, measurement threshold estimation algorithm is developed for maintenance of pipe-rack structure. Currently, field verification of the developed algorithm is being performed on a real pipe-rack structure.
This reasearch was performed to evaluate CO2 emission of Modular bridge quantitatively. Preferentially, Modular bridge was separated steel girder bridges, concrete girder, concrete slab bridge and analyzed process in doing configuration W.B.S system. According to the Ministry of land guidelines, each process was divided into material, transportation, construction and calculated by division in detail the materials and fuel so it planned that quantitative assessment can be achieved.

We have carried out the bridge inspections according to the laws not considering the characteristics of damages. It is reasonable to classify the inspection interval according to the risk of each bridge. This suggests the risk based inspection inspection methodology.
Flood and scour are one of the major causes of bridge collapse. However, maintenance and inspection techniques still need improvements especially for underwater structures like bridge piers. Conventionally, manual inspection by divers has been carried out for underwater structures of bridges. This has difficulties in gathering accurate and reliable field data under severe environmental conditions. For this reason, underwater inspection is carried out using Side Scan Sonar(SSS) recently. The underwater structure image can be obtained by observing the reflected beam signal from underwater riverbed and surface. Signal and image processing techniques are employed in order to produce a clearer 2D image. Conventional inspection using one Side Scan Sonar is carried out to obtain river bed and underwater structure image. In order to reduce the inspection time, two Side Scan Sonar are used to obtain river bed and underwater structure image simultaneously. Two Side Scan Sonar were used to confirm the usability of the interference effects, which can occur by using the same frequency as the image at the time of collection, through indoor experiment for verification.
