콘크리트 비파괴강도 추정식은 일반적으로 콘크리트 강도를 결정하는데 사용된다. 그러나 기존의 추정식들은 대부분 제한된 실험변수를 토대로 제안되어 배합조건, 강도특성 등이 다양한 실제 공용중 교량의 콘크리트 압축강도 추정시 많은 오류를 포함한다. 본 연구에서는 297개 공용 교량의 정밀안전진단 결과 중 콘크리트 비파괴시험 및 현장 코어강도 시험결과를 토대로 콘크리트 부재의 코어강도와 비파괴 추정강도 평가결과를 비교분석하였다. 분석결과 분석이 이루어진 기존 추정식들 중 일본건축학회 CNDT소위원회 강도계산식이 다른 추정식에 비하여 실제파괴강도와의 오차가 가장적고 상관분석의 신뢰도도 가장높은 것으로 검토되었다. 그러나 이 추정식은 코어강도가 30 MPa이상일 때 추정강도는 과소평가되는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 본 논문에서는 추정식에 의한 강도와 현장 코어강도사이의 관계를 활용하여 회귀분석을 통한 개선된 비파괴강도 추정식을 제안하였다.

Rebound hammer test, SonReb method and concrete core test are most useful testing methods for estimate the concrete compressive strength of deteriorated concrete structures. But the accuracy of the NDE results on the existing structures could be reduced by the effects of the uncertainty of nondestructive test methods, material effects by aging and carbonation, and mechanical damage by drilling of core. In this study, empirical procedure for verifying the in-situ compressive strength of concrete is suggested through the probabilistic analysis on the 268 data of rebound and ultra-pulse velocity and core strengths obtained from 106 bridges. To enhance the accuracy of predicted concrete strength, the coefficients of core strength, and surface hardness caused by ageing or carbonation was adopted. From the results, the proposed equation by KISTEC and the estimation procedures proposed by authors is reliable than previously suggested equation and correction coefficient.

We have developed and tested a new method for nondestructive estimation of chlorophyll- and nitrogen-contents in rye leaf. It was found that the relation-ships among nitrogen, chlorophyll content and fresh weight were significantly positive correlated. Nitrogen and chlorophyll content were positively correlated whereas correlation coefficients among R, G, R-B and G-B on the basis of photo-numerical values were negative. We have found that R/(R-B) obtained from data of digital camera is the best criterion to estimate the chlorophyll content of leaves. The regression curves of the relation between R/(R-B) and chlorophyll content were also calculated from the data collected on cloudy days. The coefficients of determination (~textrmr2 ) were ranged from 0.33 to 0.99. In this study, the accuracy in estimating chlorophyll content from the color data of digital camera image could be improved by correcting with R, G, and B values. It is suggested that, for practical purposes, the image values estimated with sufficient accuracy using a portable digital camera can be applied for determining chlorophyll content and nitrogen status in plant leaves.
