Large concrete mass members are commonly used as matte bases for skyscrapers. In general, Integral casting is preferred to secure construction convenience and durability quality rather than separate casting. However, there is a possibility that cracks may occur in the early stages due to the generation of a lot of hydration heat, and thus durability will decrease, so it is necessary to determine an appropriate mixture and verify it through experiments. The purpose of the study was to conduct a review on the durability of the optimal high-performance low-heating concrete combination derived through the experiment and to conduct a review analysis on the performance satisfaction and performance expression mechanism.

This paper deals with the prediction of behavior of composite girder bridges according to the placing sequences of concrete deck. Based on a degenerate kernel of compliance function in the form of Dirichlet series, the time-dependent behaviors of bridges are simulated, and the layer approach is adopted to determine the equilibrium condition in a section. The variation of bending moments along the bridge length caused by the slab casting sequence is reviewed and correlation studies between section types and placing sequences are conducted with the objective to establish the validity of the continuous placing of concrete deck on the closed steel box-girder which is broadly used in practice.

Recently, the study on the application of SCC(Self-Compacting Concrete) is actively underway, in order to solve the lack of flowability and the poor compacting which is one of the chronic problems of tunnel lining concrete. The aim of this study is that to verify the validity of the application of SCLC(Self-Compacting Lining Concrete) for tunnel lining concrete and to examine the characteristic of flowing and mechanics of SCLC in term of comparing before and after casting SCLC was developed by Packing Factor mix method and casted in field mix-design according to the condition of site and the characteristic of aggregate. Before casting, the tests of the capability of flowability and durability was performed by slump flow, air void and so on. Additionally, the slump flow loss is measured to evaluated the possibility of cast-in-place. Furthermore, considering on the first time SCLC casting applied to the tunnel lining in Korea, it is provided that the careful items and the correct way for construction when applied the SCLC on site.

In massive hardening concrete structures, early age thermal cracking due to the heat of hydration may occur. There are many massive structures in Incheon bridge project and they have to be carefully treated to prevent thermal cracking. In this paper, an example of analyzed and measured results of hydration heat of pile caps in the Incheon bridge project was represented. Finite element simulations were carried out before casting and curing method was determined using the analyzed result. Sensors were installed before casting and temperature and strain of concrete was measured during curing. Gathered data were compared with the analyzed data and selected control method to prevent cracking was verified. Analyzed result gave good agreement and very few cracking could be found.

This research investigate the behavior of reinforced normal and lightweight aggregate concrete hollow core slabs with different core shapes, shear span to effective depth (a/d). The experimental work includes testing seven reinforced concrete slabs under two vertical line loads. The dimensions of slab specimens were (1.1 m) length, (0.6 m) width and (0.12 m) thickness. The maximum reduction in weight due to aggregate type was (19.28%) and due to cross section (square and circular) cores was (17.37 and 13.64%) respectively. The test results showed that the decrease of shear span to effective depth ratio from 2.9 to 1.9 for lightweight aggregate solid slab cause an increase in ultimate load by (29.06%) and increase in the deflection value at ultimate load or the ultimate deflection by (17.79%). The use of lightweight aggregate concrete in casting solid slabs give a reduction in weight by (19.28%) and in the first cracking and ultimate loads by (16.37%) and (5%) respectively for constant (a/d=2.9).The use of lightweight aggregate concrete in casting hollow circular core slabs with constant (a/d=2.9) (reduction in weight 32.92%) decrease the cracking and ultimate loads by (12%) and (5.18%) respectively with respect to the solid slab. These slab specimens were analyzed numerically by using the finite element computer program ANSYS. Good agreements in terms of behavior, cracking load (load at first visible crack) and ultimate load (maximum value of testing load) was obtained between finite element analysis and experimental test results.

Recently, to shorten construction periods and reduce labor costs, the need for a corrugated beam form in the RC structure is being emphasized. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the deformation performance of SY Beam, a newly developed corrugated beam form work, during concrete casting. The standard cross-sectional shape of SY Beam was determined by modeling the deck structure of various thicknesses using the MIDAS GEN program. As a result, the cross-sectional dimensions of the SY Beam were determined to be 400mm and 450mm in width and height, respectively. A total of three SY Beam specimens were fabricated using steel plate thicknesses of 0.8, 1.0, and 1.2mm. The load conditions applied during casting concrete at the actual site are reflected. The vertical and horizontal displacements of the SY beam were measured during concrete casting. As a result, the vertical displacement showed a tendency to decrease as the thickness increased. Considering both vertical and horizontal displacement, the case with steel plate thickness of 1.2mm is the safest and most immediately applicable to the field. In the future, to secure manufacturability, constructability, and economics, the optimum steel plate thickness should be derived, and additional analysis and experimental studies for 1.05, 1.1, and 1.15mm are required.

프리스트레스트 콘크리트 교량의 건설공법인 프리캐스트 세그멘탈 공법에서선형관리 기술은 핵심기술 중 하나이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 , 우리나라에서는 몇몇 교량기술자들에게 경험적으로 이해되고 있는 수준을 넘지 못하고 있다. 특히, 세그멘트의 제작에서부터 반드시 필요한 선형관리용 S/W 및 그 운용기술은 아직까지도 선진기술에 의존하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 프리캐스트 세그멘탈 공법의 선형관리 기술에 대한 연구를 통하여 3차원적인 세그멘트 제작관리와 가설시 선형관리를 위한 제작선형을 자동적으로 계산할 수 있는 GEOCON을 개발하였다. 본 논문에서는 GEOCON의 알고리즘에 대하여 논하였으며, 특히 수치예제로서 제작오차의 발생위치에 따라 교량선형에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다.

The purpose of this study is to improve a general Top-Down construction process for superstructure construction period reduction. In a general Top-Down construction sequence, the ground floor slab is set up first. Subsequently, 1st basement level construction including core walls is constructed. Initiation of the ground level superstructure gets waited until then. In this study, removable deck plate installation on the bottom of the core walls of ground level is preceding the concrete casting, therefore, ground level superstructure construction is able to get started earlier. Up to first typical floor concrete casting, total of seventy-two working(calendar) days will be resulted in a reduction from the total construction periods.
