This study examines the sound insulation of the light-weight wall using light-weight concrete and offers the basic datum for enhancing it. The sound insulation of the light-weight wall is determinated by the density, installation method, absorption materials, air layers etc. Among the factors, the solution of outlet that is the major cause of reducing sound insulation should be made. If absorption materials are installed in the cavity walls, it enhances to 15dB in 500Hz.

The use of non-bearing light weight wall has increased recently due to the increase of high-rise buildings and supply of long-life housing. Light weight wall has advantages such as reducing the self-weight of the building, convenience in installation, and shortening construction period, however, must have a sufficient strength to external force. This study standardized the impact resistance test method for light weight walls by using the actual impact load obtained through load analysis test in previous studies. The impact resistance test method was divided into the test method that uses soft body and the one that uses hard body. The size of specimen was set up as height 2.4m and width 3.0m. The size and shape of the body followed those used in BS 5234-2 and so on for the compatibility with the test method used overseas. The judgment criteria for impact resistance based on test results were not defined uniformly as the assessment of functional damage can vary depending on the type of material, structural method, purpose of wall, and so on even when the same impact load was applied.

As being inconvenient to apply reinforced concrete structure to high-rise buildings, it is applied steel structured system. Therefore light-weight wall systems are applied as partition wall to reduce the self-load of the building. But, the required performances of a light-weight wall are not evaluated systematically. As a field survey result, partition walls of house-to-house were not showed their respected performances, so the dwellers are feel so worse the quality of the whole building. In steel-structured high-rise buildings especially, occupant's dissatisfaction concerned indoor noise was high because curtain wall systems having a high air-tight performance isolate the outdoor noise making masking effect. Therefore wall systems which have high performances of sound insulation and air-tightness are required in high-rise buildings. As a result, a new drywall system was presented and the performance was verified with field test.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate experimentally the compressive performance of horizontal joints for light-weight hybrid panel in-filled with light-weight foamed mortar. The parameters include the presence of light-weight foamed mortar, the specific gravity of light-weight foamed mortar (0.8, 1.2), the finishing materials (light-weight foamed mortar, Oriented Strand Board [OSB], gypsum board), and the fixed shape of the hybrid panel. As the improved details for fixed end, the peak strength and the stiffness of the light-weight hybrid panel are enhanced as follows: 1.07-2.7 times in peak load, 15-24 times in initial stiffness. The peak strength of the light-weight hybrid panel obtained by the test result is in agreement with the calculations, which is the criterion value according to the domestic code.

Recently, the method of the apartment building design is changing from wall type to moment structure. Because of this reason, dry wall systems are used plentifully. This study examines the sound insulation performance of the light weight concrete panel using bottom ash. There is the difference of airborne sound isolation between laboratory and field test. For the purpose of searching deviation, we use the prediction tool(Insul 6.0). First, we calculated the prediction data and measured the sound isolation in the wall at the lab. Then, we measured it in the field and compared them. At the base of these datum, we measured the difference.

Recently, the structural system of public residential buildings has been changed from the reinforced concrete (RC) wall system to the (PC) wall and moment resisting systems. Thus, it is important to develop the suitable wall system in accordance with the trend of the modern structural system. This paper presents the basic study on the suitable boundary wall in high-rise buildings. The research also demonstrates the evaluation results on sound characteristics in the aspect of sound insulation. The evaluation of sound insulation capability for the commercialized wall structure was conducted based on literature survey while the measurement of sound insulation capability for the light-weght EPP concrete was performed in according to KS F2808 in laboratory. The main objective of this research is to propose the most suitable dry wall system as a sound insulation structure through the comparison and analysis of frequency characteristics and weight-acoustic attenuation.

Breaking the rigid connection between the two faces of the wall can significantly improve the sound transmission loss of the wall. This is usually achieved by resiliently mounting the gypsum board on one of the two faces of the wall using resilient channel. Resilient channel with less stiffness than that of air cavity could move the resonance frequency of the light-weight wall. So we can get higher sound transmission loss at low frequencies for light-weight wall using resilient channel. It's sound transmission loss is 17 dB higher than that of single stud wall, and 5 dB higher than that of double stud wall.

As being inconvenient to apply reinforced concrete structure to high-rise buildings. it is applied steel structured system. Therefore light-weight wall systems are applied as partition wall to reduce the self-load of the building. But. the required performances of a light-weight wall are not evaluated systematically. As a field survey result. partition walls of house-to-house and room-to-room were not showed their respected performances. so the dwellers are feel so worse the quality of the whole building. In steel-structured high-rise buildings especially. occupant's dissatisfaction concerned indoor noise was high because curtain wall systems having a high air-tight performance isolate the outdoor noise making masking effect. Also to suppress indoor air movement. stact effect must be concerned. Therefore wall systems which have high performances of sound insulation and air-tightness are required in high-rise buildings.

In trench excavation, essential factor of earth-retaining temporary work structure should be easy taking to pieces and movement, and dead weight must be less. This paper studies about the light weight material and application as earth-retaining structure to prevent the slope failure of sand soil ground caused by the variation of groundwater level in trench excavation. That is, light weight earth-retaining structural is proposed and a simulation with FEM on application of proposed structural in sandy soil is presented. The results are summarized as follows; (1) The study proposed FRP H-shaped pannel for the light weight member, and also presented estimation method about stability. (2) Mechanical property (bending moment, shear force, axial force, displacement) were changed according to groundwater level, but these values had been within enough safety rate and allowable stress. Therefore, proposed light weight pannel with FRP is available for bracing structure in trench excavation.
