In this study, the mechanical property and durability of improved bond performance mortar shotcrete was investigated. Mortar shotcrete was prepared by replacing coarse aggregate with 100% fine aggregate in the shotcrete mixture proportion proposed in the road construction standard specification. OPC, GGBFS and anhydrite were used as binders, and polymer powder was substituted for 1% and 2% of binder for improving bond property. From the experimental results, it was found that the compressive strength decreased with increasing polymer addition, but the bond strength increased. The addition of polymer to mortar shotcrete also reduced the drying shrinkage and improved the resistance to carbonation. Initial hydration heat of mortar shotcrete decreased with the addition of polymer, and it was judged that the initial compressive strength decreased.

The purpose of this study is to develop a prototype curtain wall with improved seismic performance and to verify the seismic performance by conducting an inter-floor displacement test. To this end, a prototype of the curtain wall was manufactured and a displacement similar to the earthquake load was induced, and then the damaged state of the curtain wall was checked. As a result of the first test, the frame and glass of the curtain wall were not damaged, but the Weather Sealant was partially damaged. As a result of the second test, there was no problem of glass breakage in seismic class (special), seismic class (I), seismic class (II), and AAMA 501.6. Through this experiment, the seismic performance of the curtain wall prototype was verified.

The purpose of this study is to critically evaluate the structural performance of an innovative new shear resistance connecting structure of precast member. Joints such as shear resistance connecting structure require special attention when designing and constructing precast segmental structures. An experimental and analytical study was conducted to quantify performance measures and examine one aspect of detailing for developed shear resistance connecting structure. A computer program, named RCAHEST (Reinforced Concrete Analysis in Higher Evaluation System Technology), for the analysis of reinforced concrete structures was used. A joint element is used to predict the inelastic behavior of the joints between segmental members. Future work by the authors will do a model test of precast segmental prestressed concrete bridge columns with this shear resistance connecting structure, and examined both the structural behavior and seismic performance.

In the last decades, the resource used in the construction process has become much more various in kinds and increased in number as construction has become enlargement and complexity. Resource management on a construction site has been recognized as a detrimental factor to influence project success, therefore various technologies have been applied by the construction industry to streamline resource management. RFID/USN interworking system composed of RFID technology and sensor network supports automation of resource management and real-time information networking. Most of research efforts for RFID technology in the construction industry have been limited to object identification technology. The study proposed herein it to verify the applicability of RFID/USN interworking system to the construction industry. The identification rates of RFID/USN interworking system by distance and degree and by type of materials was identified and analyzed.

This study explores manufacturing technology and basic properties of high strength cement composites at 2,000kg/㎥ of specific weight. It is suggested that lightweight-high strength cement composites can be produced by substituting silica sand in ulta-high performance concrete mixture with lightweight materials such as solid bubbles and lightweight fine aggregates. The 28-day compressive strengths of cement composites with solid bubbles were from 116MPa to 141MPa at below 2.0g/㎤ of unit density while the cement composites with lightweight aggregates possessed lower compressive strength and higher unit density. The specific weight calculated from mixture proportions did not have significant difference with unit density of hardened cement composites, indicating that unit density of hardened cement composites can be estimated from the specific weight in mixture proportions.

In this study, a small portable sorting pilot for separation that can be used in dismantling construction site, which is the stage of construction waste generation, was developed, and its separation efficiency was evaluated to increase the actual recycling rate of the construction waste. The pilot was developed as portable sorting pilot for separation of 6 ton capacity that can handle one arm roll box within a $15m^2$ area in consideration of narrow places in the downtown area where a number of dismantling sites are located and various processes performed in the dismantling sites. In order to evaluate the efficiency performance of the developed device, the separation and sorting were carried out ten times with respect to trommel rotational speed RPM 2-3, 4-6 and 7-8. According to the results, the highest efficiency of about 90% was shown at RPM 6-7.

Because that construction project is usually uncertain and the plan of it changes frequently, it is difficult to make a reliable and feasible plan for it. As the BIM technology is developed, we can simulate the future of the construction project visually and make more reliable plan. However, data production efficiency is not so high, it is used just for animation and presentation usage. Although, a lot of construction simulation systems are developed, it is difficult to measure performance of them. In this study, we defined the construction simulation work process and the scenarios to measure performance of them. The performance measurement method using simulation process scenario can make possible benchmark test of them.

최근 전세계적으로 발생하고 있는 이상기후 현상과 각종 개발 사업으로 인한 불투수면적의 증가로 극한 홍수의 발생빈도가 높아가고 있다. 특히 내수배제 불량으로 인한 도시지역의 침수로 매년 많은 인명과 재산상의 손실이 크게 증가하고 있으며, 홍수피해 저감 및 복구대책으로 많은 국비가 지원되고 있으나 아직까지 예방보다는 복구비에 치중하고 있는 실정이다. 국내에는 상습침수 위험지구가 점차적으로 증가하는 추세이며 이를 점진적으로 해소해나가기 위해서는 도시방재성능 목표 설정에서 목표강우량을 상향으로 설정할 필요가 있다고 본다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 목표강우량을 상향 조정하여 침수해석을 실시하고 침수심을 기준으로 실제호우사상에 대한 침수심과 비교 검토하여 적정성을 확인하려고 한다. 또한 확률강우량의 시간분포는 도시별 유역 규모 및 유출특성, 강우강도 특성 등에 따라 상이한 결과를 보일 여지가 다분하여 실제 침수를 일으킨 강우와 가장 유사한 강우분포를 찾고자 한다. 기존 실무에서 주로 사용되는 Huff 분포와 함께 교호 블럭법, Huff와 교호블럭법을 혼합한 시간분포를 서울지역에 적용하여 대상지역에 적합한 시간분포를 선정하였다. 선정된 시간분포를 바탕으로 내수침수해석을 실시하여 그 결과인 침수심을 기준으로 상향된 목표강우량을 제시하고 도시지역의 적합한 설계강우의 시간분포를 도출하였다. 본 연구를 통해 도시지역의 적합한 강우 시간분포와 방재성능 목표를 설정하는데 기초자료를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, the mechanical properties of concrete with recycled coarse aggregate (RG) selected by multi-stage wind pressure (MSWP) treatment were evaluated. After evaluating the basic properties of natural and recycled coarse aggregates, the mechanical performance of the recycled coarse aggregates concrete was experimentally investigated. As a result, it was found that the MSWP technique could improve the fundamental properties such as density and water absorption of RG. In addition, the concrete with RG selected by MSWP showed a better mechanical performance, indicating a higher strength values, surface electric resistivity and a lower absorption. Thus, it seems that the MSWP technique can be effective for the production of high-quality RG.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the performance of precast concrete copings for precast segmental PSC bridge columns. The proposed system can reduce work at a construction site and makes construction periods shorter. The precast concrete copings provides an alternative to current cast-in-place systems, particularly for areas where reduced construction time is desired. A model of precast concrete copings was tested under quasistatic monotonic loading. As a result, proposed precast coping system was equal to existing cast-in-place system in terms of required performance. In the companion paper, the experimental and analytical study for the performance assessment of precast concrete copings for precast segmental PSC bridge columns is performed.
