Effects of Half-Precast Concrete Slab System on Construction Productivity
A half-precast concrete slab system (HPCSS) is reported to exhibit excellent structural performance when compared with traditional slab systems. However, there is a lack of extant research examining the construction issues of an HPCSS. Thus, in this study, we analyze the construction process and productivity of applying an HPCSS by using a simulation method with the data collected from an actua...
متن کاملAn Integrated Construction Management System for Site Precast Concrete
In order to manage site precast concrete construction which has been increasing, an integrated construction management system employing a unique 3-D modelling method and analogue process input method was developed. At the planning stage, the system supports interactive planning between member configuration and installation planning by a visual method and with an accurate quantity. At the proces...
متن کاملPrecast Concrete Elements
Lattice-girder floor slabs and double-wall elements have been successfully used in building and industrial construction for decades. These precast elements of 50 – 70 mm thickness serve as permanent formwork for the subsequently added in-situ concrete creating a monolithic structure. The high prefabrication level allows the construction period to be significantly minimized. The main goal is the...
متن کاملDesign and Construction of a Reinforcement Free Concrete Bridge Deck on Precast Bulb Tee Girders
This presentation describes the concepts involved in design and construction of a reinforcement-free bridge deck intended to provide cost effective, durable and more rapid construction for highway bridges. The new wide flanged or bulb tee precast prestressed concrete girder sections currently used in bridges allow for a shorter effective span for the bridge deck because of the wide girder flang...
متن کاملAdvantages and Limitations of Precast Concrete Construction in High-rise Buildings: Hong Kong Case Studies
The Hong Kong construction industry heavily relies on conventional cast insitu construction involving extensive use of wet trades and on-site construction processes. The construction activities have been described as “labour intensive, dangerous and polluting”. Recently, the use of prefabrication has increased in the building industry. This paper presents the preliminary findings of an ongoing ...
