PURPOSES : This study aimed to analyze the primary maintenance procedures and safety inspection checklist characteristics for suspension bridges. The study referred to the current suspension bridge safety management manual and conducted an on-site safety inspection. By comparing and analyzing any missing or inadequate inspection and management procedures, the study identified major inspection and management areas requiring improvement, and proposed potential solutions. METHODS : The study referred to the current suspension bridge safety management manual and conducted on-site safety inspections. By comparing and analyzing any missing or inadequate inspection and management procedures, the study identified major inspection and management areas requiring improvement, and proposed potential solutions. RESULTS : The study found that suspension bridges are currently inefficiently managed compared to other facilities subject to more rigorous maintenance and safety inspection. Therefore, maintenance and safety inspection procedures require improvement. CONCLUSIONS : For effective safety management and to reduce potential accident risk factors arising from negligent management, major improvements were suggested. Scientific maintenance and safety management could be achieved by incorporating enhancements into statutory requirements and improving management and inspection procedures. This long-term approach is likely to be more economical than the current methods, which lead to higher maintenance and repair costs and increased social costs from traffic accidents.
The CTBTO is the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organization to ban all forms of nuclear testing (underwater, air, and underground) worldwide and was adopted at the UN’s 50th annual general meeting in September 1996. As of September 2023, 187 out of 196 countries signed and 178 ratified. The Republic of Korea signed it in 1996 and ratified it in 1999. Several major Annex 2 countries still need to ratify it, and certain countries have not even signed it, so it has not come entry into force. The CTBTO has three verification systems for nuclear tests and consists of the International Monitoring System (IMS), the International Data Center (IDC), and On-Site Inspections (OSI). IMS consists of seismic, hydroacoustic, infrasound, and radionuclide monitoring. The measured data are delivered to IDC, analyzed by CTBTO headquarters, distributed raw data, and analyzed forms to member states. The final means of verification is in the field of OSI and will be operated when CTBT takes effect. Based on the IMS data, inspectors will be dispatched to the Inspected State Party (ISP) to check for nuclear tests. KINAC is attending the Working Group B, OSI technology development verification along with KINS and KIGAM. Since OSI is a means for final verification, integrated capabilities such as seismic and data interpretation and nuclides detection are required. CTBTO continues its efforts to foster integrated talent and modernize OSI equipment. Types of equipment include measurement, flight simulation equipment, and geographic information monitoring systems etcetera. KINAC is also developing equipment to detect contaminated areas using drones and probes. Development equipment is the nuclides detection and measurement of contaminated areas, and it is the equipment that prepares a control center and drops probes into suspected contamination areas to find a location of the radiation source. The probe can be used to track the location where the dose is most substantial through Bayesian estimation and source measurement.
Arms control treaties during the Cold War generally used national technical means (NTM) to verify treaty compliance. This was because signatory states refused to agree on on-site inspection (OSI) measures since it would require some level of intrusion. Efforts on nuclear arms control such as the Limited Test Ban Treaty (LTBT) or Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT) initially included some form of OSI but could not continue due to refusal from signatory states. The Intermediate-Range Nuclear Force (INF) treaty concluded between the US and the Soviet Union in 1978 was significant since both states agreed on a highly intrusive verification measure. The Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) and the new START also called for OSI measures similar to the INF. Alongside reducing a significant number of nuclear warheads and limiting specific types of nuclear warhead delivery vehicles, these treaties also provided basic models for conducting on-site inspection (OSI). OSI measures primarily rely on the political agreement between signatory states. However, the structure, types of inspections, number of inspections allowed, and technology/equipment used in each of the regimes also differ according to the objectives of each treaty. The INF treaty and START are salient cases as basic models for current nuclear disarmament verification research. Thus, this paper will conduct a case study on the procedures and mechanisms required for nuclear arms control verification in terms of OSI. Using the implications drawn from the INF treaty and START, this paper offers considerations for a potential nuclear disarmament verification.
북한 핵에 대한 IAEA의 사찰이 2002년 종료된 이후 북한은 2017년에 여섯 번째의 핵실험과 ICBM급인 화성-15형을 시험 발사하고 핵무력을 완성하였다고 선언하였다. 그리고 북한은 2021년 초 조선노동당 8차 대 회에서는 핵고도화 선언을 하기도 하였으며 2022년 들어 극초음속미사 일, IRBM, ICMB 등을 시험발사하며 한반도 정세를 더욱 악화시키고 있 다. 시간이 경과할수록 북한의 핵능력은 더욱 확장되고 고도화할 가능성 이 많다. 한국과 미국을 포함하는 국제사회는 북한과의 비핵화 협상을 적극 추진하고 실질적 검증을 통해 북한의 완전한 비핵화를 달성해야 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 군비통제 검증 분야의 역사적 성공 사례인 INF 조약 이행과정 분석을 통하여 북한 핵에 대한 핵심적 검증과정인 현장사찰을 촉진하는 방안을 모색하는 것이다. 북한의 완전한 비핵화를 위한 협상에 서 가장 고비가 될 수 있는 검증의 현장사찰에 관한 실행가능하고 발전 적인 방안은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 북한을 NPT에 복귀시키고 IAEA의 안전 조치협정에 가입하도록 하여 ‘IAEA 주도의 현장사찰’을 실시하여야 한 다. 둘째, 북한 핵시설 중 미신고·미공개된 핵시설에 대한 ‘선택적이고 효과적인 현장사찰’이 이루어져야 한다. 셋째, 북한의 폐쇄적인 사회적 특수성을 고려하여 ‘상호협력적 현장사찰’이 이루어져야 한다. 넷째, 다 양한 국내 및 국제기술수단을 이용하여 원격 감시, 위성 및 항공 감시, 핵관련 인원의 인터뷰, 문헌조사, 시료 채취 및 정밀분석 등을 시행하는 ‘과학기술 집약적 통합 현장사찰’이 이루어져야 한다.
농축산미생물배양실은 농축산미생물을 지자체에서 안전하게 관리하고 지원하기 위해 설립되었으며, 현재 전국에 130개소 이상 분포하고 있다. 주로 배양되는 미생물은 고초균, 광합성균, 유산균, 효모균, 질소고정균 등이다. 농축산미생물배양실의 종균관리, 오염등 품질관리에 대한 조사 연구가 수행되지 않아, 본 연구에서 농축산미생물배양실의 질적, 양적 오염 현황을 조사하였다. 조사결과 배양실에서는 공기 중에서 높은 농도의 세균(104CFU/m3)과 진균(104CFU/m3)이 검출되어 오염에 취약하였으며, 또한 배양실에서 보유 중인 종균이 다른 균주로 규명되는 경우도 조사 되었다. 효모 종균이 식중독균으로 동정되는 결과도 관찰되었다. 대부분의 농축산미생물배양실에서 미생물의 특성을 고려하지 않고 혼합하여 배양하였으며, 기업으로부터 납품받은 일부 배지에서는 미생물이 생육하지 못하는 현상도 조사 되었다. 또한, 인체병원균으로 분류되는 황색포도상구균, Bacillus cereus 병원성대장균등이 농민들에게 나누어 주는 미생물배양액에서 검출되었다. 이러한 문제점들은 배양 업무 담당자와 농민, 나아가 국민의 건강 을 해치고, 농업 경제에 악영향을 줄 수 있다.
The tower cranes are widely used in very useful construction machine the sites of constructing high-structure and have a structural sensitiveness. Therefore, the accidents have often happened due to the deficiency of laborer's understanding and lack of safety of structure. Till now, as we have research and studied above, we can properly protect accidents by construction equipments particularly crane as well as most disasters which occur frequently in construction site. The goal of this study is the safety inspection model of the tower crane a construction site, which preventible the collapse accident of tower crane which is constructed by using the correcting frame. In order to accomplish the goal of this study, the field survey, the reference investigation and the structure analysis were performed for the collapse accident of tower crane using the correcting data. This study will be proposed a build-up solutions about operating and release of safety constructions and researched about software safety estimation. Also, preventing safety problems of Tower Crane Construction site as applying safety estimation program and laws and regulations. As a result, The real time control of tower crane inspection system is implemented by to illustrate the application of the adopted optimal design model.
