This paper investigates the behavior of precast concrete (PC) shear walls with a new vertical connections for a fast remodeling construction. The C-type vertical connections for the PC wall systems are proposed for transfer of bending moment between top and bottom walls in the vertical direction while a shear key in the center of wall is prepared to transfer shear forces by bearing action. The proposed vertical connections allows easy fabrication thanks to slots at the edges of wall in opposite directions. The plane PC wall systems subject to lateral load are compared with ordinary wall systems by investigating the effects of connection on the stiffness, strength, ductility, and failure modes of whole systems. The load-displacement relationship and influence of premature failure of connections are examined. The experimental test showed that the longitudinal reinforcing steel bars placed at the edges of walls yielded first and the ultimate deformation were terminated due to premature failure of connections. The diagonal reinforcements for efficient shear transfer in the walls were not effective. The strength and deformation obtained through the section analysis were generally in agreement with the experimental data, and indicated that. Gap opening contributed to the deformation behavior more than any other factors.

The PCT that supports the walls of long span temporary shoring facility is previously manufactured in the way of prestressing, and it which is composed of concrete is improved precast structure to satisfy enough stiffness. The components of PCT are manufactured as a fixed form, and they are close to the inner side of the wall of temporary shoring facility by fixed means in PCT. PCT system as support structure is that the ends of concrete filled segment members are united by the means of connection and also they have connection hole. In this study, PCT has enough bearing power for the long span temporary shoring facility, and also make the term of work reduce due to that the time of curing reduce through the method of precast.

This research analyzed the structural efficiency and application by improving the 100 mm width vertical joint to 150 mm and developing three connection methods to reduce the difficulty in assembling and handling PC walls. Moreover, nonlinear finite analysis was used for analyzing. From the analysis results, when double width connection was applied, the PC wall showed larger load capacity and ductility due to the steel bar sharing loads efficiently. Moreover, as the dimension of loops and the number of bars increased, the maximum load capacity increased as well. Also, among the double width connections, the largest capacity showed in the order of welding, ring and C type loop. However, in case of welding type loop connection, the ring type loop is more stable due to changes in different site conditions. Therefore, thorough quality control of welding is necessary.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate lateral load resistance of a wall structure composed of precast concrete wall and H-Pile. This type of structure can be used for noise barrier foundation or retaining wall. Mock-up specimens having actual size were designed and fabricated. The lateral design load is 54.6kN. The H-pile length for the test specimen is 1.5m for simulating behavior of actual wall structure has 6.5m H-pile in the field, which is determined from theoretical study. Lateral displacements and strains of wall and H-pile were monitored and cracking in precast concrete wall inspected during the test. Load and deformation capacity of test specimens was compared with design capacity. The comparisons demonstrated that this type of structures, precast concrete wall and H-pile, can resist enough to lateral design load.

Semi-integral abutment bridges are a type of integral abutment bridges. These bridges eliminate expansion joints on the structure and can be used in situations not suitable for full-integral abutment bridge. Moreover, Semi-integral bridges have excellent maintenance and can be economically constructed. This study is about precast wall-type blocks at each end which provide lateral support for PSC girder, as well as acting as retaining walls to resist longitudinal movement of semi-integral abutment bridge. The end-diaphragm connection between ended blocks of PSC girders can be achieved by in-suit nonshrinkage concrete. The results show that 3-point experiment of end-diaphragm beam have an acceptable performance which is so better than results of structural design. Moreover, the effects of backfill soil on semi-integral abutment bridge constructed are analyzed the behavior according to the temperature changes.

프리캐스트 콘크리트 박스 암거는 현장 타설식 암거에 비해 구조물의 고품질화 및 반복적인 대량생산으로 원가 절감과 건식화 시공으로 인한 공정의 단순화와 공기가 단축되는 이점을 지니고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 상재 허용하중을 확보하고, 시공성 및 내구성이 뛰어나며, 경제성을 고려한 고성능 프리캐스트 박스 암거를 개발하고 향후 고성능 프리캐스트 박스 암거를 생산하기 위한 기초적인 자료를 제시하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 보통 포틀랜드 시멘트를 이용한 프리캐스트 박스 암거의 경제성 및 내구성, 강도특성을 개선하고자 고로슬래그를 이용하여 최적의 배합비를 산출하고, 이를 토대로 중성화, 염해, 동결융해 등의 시험을 통해 내구성을 확보하고, 휨 성능을 확인하고자 실물박스암거를 제작하여 외압강도시험을 실시하였다. 또한 구조해석을 통해 응력검토를 하였다. 내구성 검토 결과, 분말도 $6,000cm^2/g$을 가진 고로슬래그 미분말을 50%로 혼입한 콘크리트가 보통 포틀랜드 시멘트를 사용한 콘크리트보다 염화물이온 투과성에 대한 저항성 및 동결융해 저항성 등 기초물성 및 내구성이 개선됨을 알 수 있었다. 박스암거에 대한 휨 시험 결과, OPC에 비해 GFSC6의 경우는 크게 구조적 성능이 떨어지지는 않는 것으로 나타났으며, 균열양상 및 연성도에서는 우수함을 나타냈다. ABAQUS에 의한 비선형 해석 결과는 시험체의 휨 거동을 잘 묘사하는 것으로 나타났으며, 처짐의 경우 시험체의 시험결과보다 크게 나타났지만, 처짐 양상은 비슷한 것을 알 수 있었고, 벽체와 상부 슬래브에 발생하는 응력은 부재가 허용하는 균열응력값 이내로 나타남에 따라 사용하중 상태에서의 응력검토는 안전한 것으로 판단된다.

지하에 설 치된 맨홀의 구조물이 노후되거나, 내부에 수 용된 시설물로 작업 공간이 협소하여 맨홀 구조물을 대개체 할 펼요가 있을 경우, 지금까지는 대부분 현장 콘크리트 타설에 의한 방법을 사용하였다. 이러한 방법은 거푸집 시공, 콘크리트 타설, 콘크리트 양생, 거푸집 철거 등의 공정이 소요되어 공사 기간이 장기화 되고, 도심지에 위치한 맨홀인 경우에는 차량과 보행자의 통행 불편을 초래하기도 하였다. 또한, 통상적으로 사용되고 있는 프리캐스트 맨홀에 비해 시공 품질이 낮아 향후 맨홀의 운용 및 유지관리에 많은 어려움을 겪는 원인이 되기도 하였다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위해, 폴리머 콘크리트를 이용하여 하부, 벽체, 상부로 구성된 다수의 세그먼트를 생산한 후, 현장에서 이들 세그먼트를 조립하여 맨홀을 설치하는 방법을 연구하였다. 가변형 거푸집을 이용한 세그먼트 제작과 조립식 블록에 의한 관구를 사용하여 현장 적용성을 높임은 물론, 프리캐스트로 생산되는 폴리머 콘크리트 맨홀 수준의 시공 품질을 확보할 수 있도록 하였다.

The infill-wall strengthening method has been widely used for the seismic performance enhancement of the conventional reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures with non-seismic detail, which is one of the promising techniques to secure the high resisting capacity against lateral forces induced by earthquake. During the application of the infill-wall strengthening method, however, it often restricts the use of the structure. In addition, it is difficult to cast the connection part between the wall and the frame, and also difficult to ensure the shear resistance performances along the connection. In this study, an advanced strengthening method using the externally-anchored precast wall-panel (EPCW) was proposed to overcome the disadvantages of the conventional infill-wall strengthening method. The one-third scaled four RC frame specimens were fabricated, and the cyclic loading tests were conducted to verify the EPCW strengthening method. The test results showed that the strength, lateral stiffness, energy dissipation capacity of the RC frame structures strengthened by the proposed EPCW method were significantly improved compared to the control test specimen.

This paper investigates the seismic performance of T-shaped PC walls with a new vertical connections and wet cast joint. The load-displacement relationship, strength, ductility, failure mechanism, and deformation capacity of the T-shaped PC walls subjected to cyclic loading are verified. Test parameter is diagonal reinforcement of both flange and web wall panels to transfer shear strength. The longitudinal reinforcing steel bars placed edges of walls yield first and the ultimate deformation is terminated due to premature failure of connections. And diagonal reinforcements for shear transfer in walls are effective to restrain the wall crack. The strength and displacement obtained by the cross section analysis were very similar to the experimental data.

In the construction site, various earth retaining systems are developed and applied to maintain stability of excavated area and structures. Among the methods, the underground continuous wall and the column-type diaphragm wall methods are especially used in construction site nearby buildings or roads. However, these methods have some disadvantages such as the difficulty of quality control and long curing time because these methods need to cast fresh concrete at the construction site. In addition, these methods are usually applied to the site for the temporary purpose. In this paper, we suggest precast hollow prestressed concrete pile for continuous pile wall system. To investigate the structural behavior of suggested pile, which is the main member of the suggested system, tests pertaining to the structural behavior and prestressing force applied in the pile are conducted. From the test results, it was found that the prestressing force measured is sufficient compared with the value obtained by the design equation and the cracking moment measured is 34% higher than the design value. In addition to the above, this precast hollow prestressed concrete pile has an additional safety margin that the maximum moment is 59.2% higher than the cracking moment which is one of the serviceability limits for the design of the system.
