nanowires were synthesized by a hydrothermal reaction of metallic Y with aqueous solution of LiOH. The morphology and the size of the nanowires changed with varying the volume of the LiOH solution inside the autoclave. nanowires transformed to by a subsequent heat-treatment without morphological change. By a proper control of hydrothermal reaction parameter and heat-treatment, the yield of pure nanowires up to 97% was attained.

Chlorides have an strong effect on durability of concrete. So, Damage cases of RC bridge structure subjected to chloride were collected through precise safety inspection for effective maintainance of concrete bridge.
