The systematization of construction information is required over whole life cycle of facilities to improve productivity of construction industry. BIM has been actively suggested as one of alternatives. However, it may be currently concentrated on the large-scale facilities while the small and medium-scale facilities based on BIM are slightly treated in indifference. This study has been performed to set up information management system based on BIM considering characteristics of small and medium-scale facilities. PLIB of ISO and construction information classification system of by MLTM in Korea are used in this study.

A noncontact nondestructive testing(NDT) method is proposed to detect the damage of plate-like structures and to identify the location of the damage. To achieve this goal, a scanning laser source actuation technique is utilized to generate a guided wave and scans a specific area to find damage location more precisely. The ND: YAG pulsed laser is used to generate Lamb wave and a piezoelectric sensor are installed to measure the structural responses. The measured responses are analyzed using 3 dimensional Fourier transformation. The damage-sensitive features are extracted by wavenumber filtering based on the 3D FT. Then, flaw imaging techniques of a plate-like structure is conducted using the damage-sensitive features. Finally, the plates with notches are investigated to verify the effectiveness and the robustness of the proposed NDT approach.

Recently, an interest in volcanic eruption of the Mt. Baekdu is increasing. If the Mt. Baekdu has volcanic eruption, volcanic ash and earthquake will occur. These can give moderate or severe damages to the structure. But the studies of volcanic earthquake and structural damage by volcanic earthquake is not enough. In this paper, structural damages by volcanic earthquake were investigated and analyzed in connection with VEI-Magnitude and Distance-Magnitude relationships.

본 논문에서는, 자이로스코프를 이용한 각속도 계측과 가속도계를 통한 가속도 계측을 통해, 기존 의 가속도 계측만을 통한 교량구조물의 건전성평가의 단점을 극복하고자 한다. 교량의 경우, 지점 부근에서는 각속도 변화가 큰 반면, 중앙경간으로 갈수록 그 값은 작아지고, 가속도 변화가 크게 발생한다. 이러한 교량의 거동 특성을 통해 가속도 계측을 통한 건전성 평가에서 간과할 수 있는 지점 부근의 손상을 지점 부근에서 계측된 각속도를 이용해 보상하는 방법이다. 즉, 가속도 계측치를 이용하여 구조물의 모드유연도 행렬을 구성하고, 이를 이용하여 일차적인 손상진단을 수행한다. 추가 적으로 지점부근의 각속도 계측을 이용해 얻어진 회전 모드유연도 행렬을 이용하여 지점부근에서의 손상진단을 수행한다. 제안된 방법의 검증을 위해서 단순보를 이용한 수치해석을 수행했다. 중앙 부근의 손상과 지점 부근의 손상을 모사하였으며, 제안된 방법의 우수성 검증을 위해 가속도 계측만 을 통한 결과와 이종 데이터 계측을 통한 결과에 대한 비교연구를 수행했다.

In this paper, the utilization of PZT’s dual piezoelectric effects (i.e., dynamic strain and electro-mechanical (E/M) impedance responses) for damage detection in beam-type structures are presented. In order to achieve the objective, the following approaches are implemented. First, global vibration-based and local impedance-based methods to detect the location of damage are presented. Then, the vibration-based and impedance-based damage detection methods using the dual piezoelectric responses are evaluated from experiments on a lab-scaled beam.

Korea rapidly arranged urbanization and overpopulation with high growth of economy and all kinds of decrepit facilities are scattered all over the downtown. If there is a strong wind in fire, fire is rapidly increased by various fire spread factors. And Korea cannot build prediction model of urban fire combustion phenomena because there is no studies that physically explains the suitable flame phenomena for its real state. In this study, based on the Japanese Urban fire simulation to target the dense building and suitability of fire risk assessment were reviewed

This study was conducted for determining the influence of artificial structures on benthic macroinvertebrate communities in stream. Sampling was taken at upper(pool), down(riffle) and control(riffle) from two check dams, two weirs, one agricultural reservoir, and one multipurpose dam in northern part of Gyeongsangbuk-do. The benthic macroinvertebrate communities of these structures were surveyed during 2009 to 2011. The simple habitat of benthic macroinvertebrates occurred at the upper sites due to pooling effects from artificial structures. Specifically, Check dam1, Jusanji, Imha dam showed very low biological attribute values compared to the down and control sites, which have greater difference in substrate characteristics. However, in the upper sites of Check dam2, Weir1 and Weir2, the difference of values of biological attributes was relatively smaller. Also, proportion of functional feeding groups and functional habit groups were relatively simpler at upper stream and the degree of community differences was greater between upper and down, control sites. Spearman’s correlation between biological attributes and substrate characteristics, water quality parameters had significant correlations; particularly, the substrate characteristics were more significantly related. In conclusion, the pool caused by artificial structures had negative effects on benthic macroinvertebrate communities thus leading to simplified stream habitats at upper stream ecosystems.
