PURPOSES : This study aimed to perform real-time on-site construction volume management by using Internet of things (IoT) technology consisting of 3D scanning, image acquisition, wireless communication systems, and mobile apps for new and maintenance construction of concrete bridge deck overlays. METHODS : LiDAR was used to scan the overlay before and after construction to check the overlay volume. An enhanced inductively coupled plasma (ICP) method was applied to merge the LiDAR data scanned from multiple locations to reduce noise, and an anisotropic filter was applied for efficient three-dimensional shape modeling of the merged LiDAR data. The construction volume counter of the mobile mixer was directly photographed using an IP camera, and the data were transmitted to a central server via the LTE network. The video images were transmitted to the central server and optical character recognition (OCR) was used to recognize the counter number and store it. The system was built such that the stored information could be checked in real time in the field or at the office. RESULTS : As a result of using LiDAR to check the amount of overlay construction, the error from the planned amount was 0.6%. By photographing the counter of the mobile mixer using an IP camera and identifying the number on the counter using OCR to check the quantity, the results showed that there was a 2% difference from the planned quantity. CONCLUSIONS : Although the method for checking the amount of construction on site using LiDAR remains limited, it has the advantage of storing and managing the geometric information of the site more accurately. Through the IoT-based on-site production management system, we were able to identify the amount of concrete used in real time with relative accuracy.
PSC(Prestressed Concrete)거더 교량은 긴장재(강선)를 통하여 교량 양쪽에서 압축력을 추가하는 방 식으로 외부에 대한 저항력을 확보한다. PSC 거더 교량의 긴장 방식에 따라 콘크리트 타설 전(프리텐 션)과 타설 후(포스트텐션)로 구분할 수 있다. 반면에 프리텐션 긴장의 경우 강선이 구조물과 직접 결 합하는 방식이기 때문에 전용관 삽입 및 그라우트 채움 공정이 생략되어 하중이 비교적 가벼울 뿐만 아니라, 긴장재 부식 방지를 위한 유지관리에 매우 효율적이다. 그러나 프리텐션 긴장 방식은 별도의 긴장 시설이 필요하므로 주로 공장에서 제작되고, 건설 현장까지 이동이 필요하기 때문에 길이 (L=18m) 및 무게(W=30tonf)의 제한이 있다. 프리텐션 긴장 공법의 경우 별도의 반력대 및 긴장 시설 이 필요하여 주로 공장에서 제작하고 현장으로 이동 및 설치되고 있다. 도로를 이용한 이동이 필요하 기 때문에 거더의 경간 및 중량의 제한이 발생하게 된다. 따라서, 경간장 25 m 이상의 거더의 경우 포스트텐션을 통한 현장 제작이 주로 이루어 지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 별도의 시설없이 현장에서 프 리텐션 긴장이 가능한 PSC 거더 시공 공법을 제안하였다. 또한, 장경간 PSC 거더 제작을 위한 포스트 텐션 기반의 세그먼트 제작 공법을 제안하고, 그 성능을 검증하였다.
PURPOSES : This study aimed to secure the work space in alarm valve rooms to ensure stable working conditions for the engineers. METHODS : We analyzed situations where alarm valve room work spaces were inadequately secured posing a problem. Using the Ovako working posture analysis system (OWAS) method, we measured the body size of adult male technicians and their tools to analyze the actual space needed for them to maintain a healthy posture while working. On this basis, we proposed regulations governing workspace size and acceptable durations for unstable body postures. RESULTS : By measuring valve room work space and technician body size, we found that the workspace was inadequate for technicians. Applying OWAS showed that securing more space in the valve room improved the construction stability. CONCLUSIONS : Regulations on valve room size and appropriate work space for technicians will improve construction and inspection stability. This reduces the probability of poor construction and inadequate inspection, increasing the reliability of the firefighting facility system.

PURPOSES : This study is to suggest time to spray curing compound, the amount of curing compound, and the number of times to spray curing compound based on indoor tests. METHODS : Based on the literature review, two methods are used in this study, One is test for water retention of concrete curing material and the other is test for abrasion resistance of concrete surfaces by the rotating-cutter method. Through those methods, curing compound was evaluated. RESULTS : The result of the laboratory experiment for time to spray curing compound indicates that 30 minutes after placing concrete is optimal. For the amount of curing compound, 0.5l/m2 is the minimum quantity for both concretes. Through test of the number of times to spray curing compound, method to spray the whole amount of curing compound in twice is more efficient than it to spray the whole amount at a time. Also, method of separately 30-50 minutes spray is better than method of separately 10-30 minutes spray. CONCLUSIONS : From the testing results, it can be proposed that optimum time to curing compound is 30±15 minutes, 0.5l/m2 is efficient for spraying the whole amount of curing compound at a time, and 0.4l/m2 is the best for spraying the whole amount of curing compound in twice, which sprays it in 20 minutes after 30 minutes from placing concrete.

Nowadays, wireless sensor network applications have been used in several important areas, such as healthcare, construction, critical infrastructure, environmental monitoring, and manufacturing. However, due to the limitation of WSNs in terms of memory, energy, computation, and scalability, efficient management of the large number of WSNs data in these areas is an important issue to deal with. There is a need for a high-performance computing and massive storage infrastructure for real-time processing and storing of the data as well as analysis of the information. In this paper, we present a technology and application of sensor cloud computing based on IoT and service to manage monitoring sensor data for the f construction design-build projects. With this IoT sensor cloud platform, the entire project participants can efficiently share information to identify and solve issues in the design build phase.
