Research on the constructability of mechanical splices in Nuclear Power Plant in Korea

국내 건설원전의 기계적철근이음 공법 적용성 분석

Mechanical splices has been applied in nuclear power plant according to ASME(American Society of Mechanical Engineering) and ACI(American Concrete Institute) Code requirements. In particular sleeve with ferrous filler metal splices and cold roll formed parallel threaded splices have been used in domestic nuclear power plants. The objective of this study is to find out the constructability of the mechanical splices which had been used in Korea nuclear job site and to review the technical trends in the near future.
