HPC method is developing to improve the constructability and structural performance of the existing PC method. The objective of this study is to develop construction procedures and to analysis of construction period for HPC method. In order to develop construction procedures, the building construction data of the existing half-slab method was analyzed. Analyzing design drawings and specifications of nine construction cases, a prototype of half-slab method, was drawn. Applying the core technology of HPC method to the drawn prototype of half-slab method, a prototype of HPC method, was developed. The differences of both methods were 'installing PC column' and 'placing topping concrete'. To analysis the differences of both methods, seven construction cases were analyzed. According to the analysis for HPC method, cases1 and 2 had columns divided for construction shortened about 16% of a construction period. The schedule of column assembly work was analyzed to be shortened much. That is judged to be because the use of a hollow PC column leads to a decrease in the number of columns. In particular, if HPC method is applied to a building construction site using large columns, it is analyzed to shorten a construction period more than the existing Half-slab method.

Concrete slab curls and warps due to the uneven distribution of temperature and moisture and as the result, internal stress develops within the slab. Therefore, environmental loads must be considered in addition to the traffic loads to predict the lifespan of the concrete pavement more accurately. The strength of the concrete slab is gradually decreases to a certain level at which fatigue cracking is generated by the repetitive traffic and environmental loadings. In this study, a new fatigue regression model was developed based on the results from previously performed studies. To verify the model, another laboratory flexural fatigue test program which was not used in the model development, was conducted and compared with the predictions of other existing models. Each fatigue model was applied to analysis logic of cumulative fatigue damage of concrete pavement developed in the study. The sensitivity of cumulative fatigue damage calculated by each model was analyzed for the design factors such as slab thickness, joint spacing, complex modulus of subgrade reaction and the load transfer at joints. As the result, the model developed in this study could reflect environmental loading more reasonably by improving other existing models which consider R, minimum/maximum stress ratio.

최근 건설공사에서 많은 물량이 투입되는 기초구조의 자재비 및 원가절감을 위해 여러 가지 기초구조시스템이 개발되고 있으나, 보편적으로 현장에 적용하기에는 다소 무리가 있는 것으로 지적받고 있다. 본 연구는 강판을 ㄷ자형으로 절곡한 기초전단보강시스템을 개발하기 위한 해석적 연구의 일환으로 진행되었다. 현행 전단머리 보강식에서는 기초판에 대한 전단내력 산정을 위한 기준식이 마련되어 있지 않으며 플랫플레이트 슬래브의 기준식에 따르도록 되어져있다. 그러나 기초판은 지반에 지지되는 구조물로 플랫플레이트 슬래브와는 경계조건이 다르다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지반에 지지된 경우와 플랫플레이트 슬래브와 같이 모멘트 제로지점을 단순지지한 형태로 기초구조물을 모델링하여 해석을 실시하였다. 해석프로그램은 유한 요소기법이 적용된 ABAQUS를 사용하여 두 지지조건의 차이가 구조물에 미치는 영향을 비교분석하였다.

The stress distribution and the critical stresses in concrete pavements were analyzed using formulations in the transformed field domains when dual-wheel single-, tandem-, and tridem-axle loads were applied. First the accuracy of the transformed field domain analysis results was verified by comparing with the finite element analysis results. Then, the stress distribution along the longitudinal and transverse directions was investigated, and the effects of slab thickness, concrete elastic modulus, and foundation stiffness on the stress distribution were studied. The effect of the tire contact pressure related to the tire print area was also studied, and the location of the critical stress occurrence in concrete pavements was finally investigated. From this study, it was found that the critical concrete stress due to multi-axle loads became larger as the concrete elastic modulus increased, the slab thickness increased, and the foundation stiffness decreased. The number of axles did not tend to affect the critical stress ratio except for a small foundation stiffness value with which the critical stress ratio became significantly larger as the number of axles increased. The critical stress location in the transverse direction tended to move into the interior as the tire contact pressure increased, the concrete elastic modulus increased, the slab thickness increased, and the foundation stiffness decreased. The critical stress location in the longitudinal direction was under the axle for single- and tandem-axle loads, but for tridem-axle loads, it tended to move under the middle axle from the outer axles as the concrete elastic modulus and/or slab thickness increased and the foundation stiffness decreased.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the flexural and shear capacity of steel wire-integrated void deck plate slabs. In order to evaluate flexural and shear capacity, we make five 150mmspecimens and three 200mmspecimens by slab depth as main variable. Each series of specimen is comprised of an existing steel wire-integrated deck-plate slab and two specimens using topping depth as variable. From the series of experiments, steel wire-integrated void deck plate slabs has any decline in flexural and shear performance. Therefore, a void-deck-plate slab which inserts Omega-steel plate showed reducing a using concrete-volume and had flexural and shear capacity following existing steel wire-integrated deck-plate.

This paper summarizes experimental results for studying feasibility and structural behavior of' a half slab which is getting popularity in recent building construction in favour of the savings in manpower, coats, and construction period. 17 specimens were tested to investigate and analyze the flexural strength of precast concrete slab, half slab, and half slab-wall joint. The primary variables of the testing program were: thickness of precast concrete slab, truss mesh shape, and type of loadings. Test results show that the flexural strength of precast concrete slab in reverse loading is lower than the design strength, but the flexural strength of precast concrete slab, half slab and half slab-wall joint in direct loading is higher than the design srength. No horizontal cracks were found in the connection between insitu concrete and precast concrete slab. The flexural strength of half slab and half slab-wall joint was the same as that of reinforced concrete members. This study concludes that there will not be any structural problem in using a half slab reinforced by truss mesh if props spacing of 2.0m-2.5m, cleanness, and rough finishing between precast concrete and insitu concrete slab are kept.

Latex modified concrete (LMC) exhibits improved material properties including high tensile strength and durability compared with conventional concrete, and hence LMC has been used as protective layers over the bridge deck slabs to increase their service life with underlying assumption of excellent bond behavior between the LMC overlay and the concrete substrate. In this study, the effect of the primary parameters of the concrete substrate (i.e., shrinkage, stiffness and cracking capacity) as well as the LMC overlay thickness on the probability of cracking of the bridge deck slabs using LMC overlays was investigated by carrying out the finite element analysis that simulated the bond behavior of LMC overlays on normal strength concrete (NSC) and HPC bridge deck slabs. Based on the results of the numerical analysis, it is concluded that the relatively high shrinkage strains and stiffness of HPC slabs can increase its probability of cracking in bridge deck slabs using LMC overlay.

In these days the floor vibration is beginning to make its appearance of the environmental dispute in apartment building. Standard floor system are suggested for the settlement of this issue by government. The sound of floor impact sound is needed to secure comfortable quality in housing. Also, it is required an accurate analysis and a proper evaluation for floor vibration. Refine model is necessary for the floor system of housing to analyze accurately the floor vibration. But this refine model is not efficient because it is required so much running time for vibration analysis and it is difficult of modeling of standard floor slab. In this paper, new modeling methods of standard floor slab are proposed for the accurate rigidity evaluation. By using the new modeling method, the accurate vibration response can be obtained and can accurately evaluate the rigidity of standard floor system with resilient materials. Therefore the proposed modeling method is of practical use for vibration analysis of floor system of apartment building.

Three interior slab-column connections designed by equal static moments and by different distribution of end and midspan moments were tested. Each test specimen consists of a 4.2 m square slab and a 355 mm square column stub. The slab thickness is 152 mm. Test results showed not only that flat plate systems can undergo considerable redistribution of moments from the uncracked state to final maximum capacity, but also that the distribution of moments is controlled largely by the distribution of reinforcement adopted by the designer. Tests also indicated that the punching shear strength of slabs can be affected by the redistributed moments.
