This study carried out an investigation about damage characteristic of substructure such as pier and abutment of highway bridge. The applied methodology was the average damage analysis according to service life. By using above methodology, damage characteristic of substructure penetrated water included de-icing salt was investigated. It was found that the area where was under heavy snow exhibited higher amount of average damage than that of the area where was under much less snow.

Recently, various types of landslide occurs frequently in domestic and foreign. The purpose of this study is to evaluate dam safety due to landslide in dam area. In order to evaluate dam safety on overtopping which may be occur by landslide, the scales of landslide were calculated through empirical formula and results of field survey in valleys, and wave heights of impulse were computed through numerical simulation for each case. Dam safety assessment was performed by the numerical analysis.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of the Cirsium japonicum var. ussuriense (C. japonicum)extract on serum level of hormones from induced osteoporosis by ovariectomized rats. Two month-old rats were ovariecto-mized (OVX), remained untreated for 8 weeks, and were subsequently administered C. japonicum (200㎎/㎏) every day for8 weeks. We examined the effects of treated C. japonicum on ovariectomy-related changes in Insulin-like Growth Factors(IGF), Insulin-like Growth Factor binding protein-3 (IGBF-3), Estrogen, Calcium, and Phosporus. After 8 weeks, the serumlevels of IGF-I, -II, and IGFBP-3 were higher presented as compared to the other two groups (P<0.05), in the C. japonicumextract treatment on OVX rats. There were differences between OVX and C. japonicum extract treated OVX rats in serumlevels of Ca2+, but Ca2+ levels for the normal group was higher than for the other two groups. The C. japonicum extractincreased both serum IGFs and IGFBP-3 levels on induced osteoporotic rat by ovariectomized. Thus, these results revealedthat the C. japonicum extract is a possible role for improvement of osteoporosis induced-ovariectomized rats and has a greatpotential as an alternative tool for the treatment of osteoporosis.

The needs for consistent maintenance for highway bridge has been increased in nowadays. This study is to investigate fundamental database about in-depth inspection for publishing the repair and strengthening methodology. It is because the maintenance budget should be used effectively for optimal maintenance of infrastructures. In order to investigate the maintenance history of highway bridges, the database of in-depth inspection from 1996 to 2012 was analyzed. For the superstructure type, PSC box girder bridge which was the most common among the concrete bridges in the inspection database was investigated.

To repair pothole failure in asphalt pavement, this study is developing high durability rehabilitation method using construction equipment and pre-cast material. The various filling material was examined to bond pre-cast repair material at asphalt pavement, performance was evaluated throuth tensile bond and shear bond test. As a result, Guss asphalt binder and two-component polyurethane material was shown a superior performance in terms of tensile bond strength, shear bond strength was two-component polyurethane material to be effective.

The importance of facility management has been increased. Management scheme is mainly for organizing the reports which in the form of electrical file, and provides an information service using facility management database. However, current system is not sufficient to interconnect the physical model with semantic information, also the consistency of data is not guaranteed. In this study, we propose a BIM (Building Information Modeling)-based facility management scheme to overcome this drawbacks. the objective of this paper is to briefly introduce the concept of BIM and major issues to develop the system.
