Development of Rock Embedded Drilled Shaft Resistance Factors in Korea based on Field Tests
Load and resistance factor design (LRFD) is a limit state design method that has been applied worldwide. Because the data for determining LRFD factors in Korea has been insufficient, the resistance factors suggested by American Association of State ...

Abstract Pavement performance impacts transportation mobility, safety, and comfort, with timely maintenance relying on field survey data. However, frequent surveys are costly and impractical. This study examines how survey timing and frequency influence maintenance events and pavement deterioration to optimize management strategies.

Settlement Analysis of a Large Pile Group Supporting an LNG Storage Tank
ABSTRACT Liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage tanks are often supported by large pile groups (>100 piles). The design of such foundations is generally governed by settlement rather than bearing capacity. However, minimal information is available regarding the settlement performance of the LNG tank foundations. This article first presents a comprehensive

Integrated data model for bridges with 3D geometry and maintenance information
Abstract The Japanese government has been promoting construction information modeling initiatives, following the example of building information modeling, which has been widely adopted in the construction sector of Western countries. However, progress in preparing and utilizing 3D data for existing structures, which are primarily subject to maintenance

Laboratory Procedure for Measuring the Effectiveness of Dust Control Palliatives [PDF]
Creation of fugitive dust on unpaved roads results in the loss of up to 25 mm (one inch) of surface aggregate annually (FHWA, 1998). On these roads, shearing forces created by vehicles dislodge the fine aggregate fraction (silt and clay) that binds the ...

Abstract Horizontal and vertical curves significantly affect crash risk due to their impact on driver behavior, vehicle dynamics, and sight distance. However, their combined effects and spatial interactions remain underexplored in large‐scale safety assessments. To address limitations in high‐resolution geometric data and insufficient spatial modeling,
