This paper presents a reinforced concrete composite deck slab system newly developed using a high ductile ECC extrusion panel. In the construction practice, the cracking of reinforced concrete slab often becomes a problem especially in parking garages, underground structures, and buildings. The ECC panel manufactured by extrusion process as a precast product has not only a high-quality in control of cracking but also a merit in applying the construction of concrete slab because the use of ECC panel can realize a formless or half-precast construction with cast-in-place concrete. In the newly developed deck slab system, the ECC extrusion panel is located in the bottom of slab with the thickness of 10 mm, reinforcements are assembled and located on the ECC panel, and finally the topping concrete is placed in the field. In order to evaluate the newly developed slab system, experimental works by four point bending test are conducted to compare with the conventional reinforced concrete slab system. From experiment, the developed deck slab system using a ECC panel gives many improved performances both in control of bending cracking and in load-carrying capacities of slabs.

The purpose of this study is to develop a new seismic resistant method by using precast concrete wall panels for existing low-rise, reinforced concrete beam-column buildings such as school buildings. Three quasi-static hysteresis loading tests were performed on one unreinforced beam-column specimen and two reinforced specimens with U-type precast wall panels. The results were analyzed to find that the specimen with anchored connection experienced shear failure, while the other specimen with steel plate connection principally manifested flexural failure. The ultimate strength of the specimens was determined to be the weaker of the shear strength of top connection and flexural strength at the critical section of precast panel. In this setup of U-type panel specimens, if a push loading is applied to the reinforced concrete column on one side and push the precast concrete panel, a pull loading from upper shear connection is to be applied to the other side of the top shear connection of precast panel. Since the composite flexural behavior of the two members govern the total behavior during the push loading process, the ultimate horizontal resistance of this specimen was not directly influenced by shear strength at the top connection of precast panel. However, the RC column and PC wall panel member mainly exhibited non-composite behavior during the pull loading process. The ultimate horizontal resistance was directly influenced by the shear strength of top connection because the pull loading from the beam applied directly to the upper shear connection. The analytical result for the internal shear resistance at the connection pursuant to the anchor shear design of ACI 318M-11 Appendix-D, agreed with the experimental result based on the elastic analysis of Midas-Zen by using the largest loading from experiment.

In this study, a double wall system is introduced, which was invented to simplify the complicated manufacturing process of the existing precast concrete (PC) double wall systems and to remove defects such as laitance that may occur during the production of concrete panels. An experimental study was conducted to investigate the tensile resisting capacity of the steel tube which is embedded in the precast concrete panel to keep the spacing between PC panels and to prevent damage of the PC panels during transportation and casting concrete onsite. The experiment was planned to determine the detail of effective steel tube connection considering the steel plate treatment method according to the formation of the opening, the presence of embedded concrete, and the reinforcement welding for additional dowel action as key variables. As a result, the ultimate tensile strength increased by 20-30% compared to the control specimen (ST) except for the steel tube specimen (ST_CP) which has steel plates bent inward at the end part of the steel tube. Since the specimen (ST_CON) filled with concrete inside the control specimen has no additional process and cost for the steel tube connections compared to the control specimen during the production of the developed double wall system, it is determined to be the appropriate detail of steel tube connection.

In this Study, the performance of precast PSC slabs with fire resistance panel for fire resistance of the tunnel system was evaluated by experimentally. The fire test was performed in fire resistance (electric) furnace according to RABT(Richtlinien fur die Ausstatung und den Betrieb von stra${\beta}$entunneln) time heating temperature curve. The test results showed that the measured temperatures at the t=0 mm depth of PSC slab with precast fire resistance panel during a fire was maximum temperature $367^{\circ}C$, lower than $380^{\circ}C$ (ITA 2004), when damage occurs. Also, at the t=25 mm, the maximum temperature was $239^{\circ}C$, which was lower than the damage temperature of rebar, $250^{\circ}C$. From the results, the use of precast fire resistance panel (t=25 mm) improves fire resistance of PSC structures.

Recently, the area of design optimization, especially structural optimization, has been and to be a continuous active area of research. And the design optimizations of port facilities have been achieved by many other civil engineers. But the design optimization of port facilities were limited to the design optimization of the breasting dolphin. This paper invested the design optimization of mooring pier and the foundations of mooring pier was suggested considering the convenience of repair and reinforcement work. The mooring pier devised with prestressed precast concrete panel and rigid frame welded wide flange beam to steel pipe pile. To accomplish the design optimization of mooring pier, the Augmented Lagrangian Multiplier Method(ALM) of ADS(Garret N. Vanderplaats) optimization routine, BFGS method as optimizer and Golden Section Method as one dimensional search were utilized. As a result, thirty percent of material cost for construction was reduced by design optimization. The tensile stress of concrete panel and bottom flage was critical constraints under service load. So, using high strength concrete and steel will be economical. And lots of initial values must be invested to accomplish the design optimization in design procedures.

The purpose of this study is to establish and examine the analytical methods based on FEA to predict the behavior of the precast prestressed concrete panels under blast loading. The precast prestressed concrete structures are on the rise, but there is little research in this regard explosion. In this paper, we set the variable to the three models. TNT 500 kg was an explosion in the standoff-distance 3m. In conclusion, the precast models damage was concentrated in the bonded portion. The concrete panels after an explosion occurred continuously deformed. But the including prestressed panels deformation occurs only at the beginning of the explosion were able to see the results.

A lateral load resisting system is a necessary structural element for the mid- to high-rise modular buildings and concrete cores are known as the most typical lateral load resisting systems in 10- to 20-story modular buildings. It is difficult to construct a concrete core simultaneously with the installation and finishing work of modular units because concrete placed using wet methods might contaminate or destroy the modular unit. Therefore, we have developed a hybrid PC (precast concrete) panel construction method that can construct a concrete core together with the installation of modular units. The hybrid PC panel is a load-bearing element in which a pair of C-shaped beams are combined at the top and bottom of a concrete wall. Concrete cores can be constructed by dry method to connect the hybrid PC panels with bolts. In this study, the details and connection of hybrid PC panels are improved to have the lateral performance comparable to reinforced concrete structural walls and are verified through FE analysis.

Global warming is a very important problem as it causes rapid climate change and natural disasters. Therefore, researches related to renewable energy are being actively conducted while promoting policies such as reducing carbon dioxide emission and increasing the proportion of renewable energy. Solar power generation is being applied in urban areas like BIPV as well as existing idle areas outside the city. Therefore, in this study, precast concrete blocks developed for paving roadways capable of solar power generation were designed and constructed. For the evaluation of field applicability for 6 months, skid resistance and block settlement were measured. As a result of the experiment, it was found that skid resistance satisfies the standard of general roadway in Korea, but not the standard of highway. The skid resistance tended to decrease as time passed. In addition, the settlement of the block gradually increased slightly, but it is much smaller than the allowable settlement of the roadway. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a maintenance period and method based on the periodic measurement results in the future.
