Recently, interest in OSC(Off Site Construction) is increasing due to the trend of a decrease in skilled workers and an increase in labor costs. In this regard, PC(Precast Concrete) is being reviewed for apartments, the most common type of housing in Korea. As the biggest concern for PC apartment houses, civil complaints such as inter-floor noise and leakage were presented. In this study, the details of the joints were reviewed based on the past cases of PC apartments, and the details of the recently constructed or planned PC apartments were investigated. Through this, the leakage path in the past was analyzed through the existing research literature and data. And wall type RC and PC apartment joint leakage test was performed and we found the needs for a detail of waterproof steps, sealant. Also, joint details were investigated for a rahmen type apartment housing under construction. At last, A discussion was conducted on the direction for a detailed proposal of an improved joint in the future.

The tendon loss of the pre-stressed composite member is affected immediate elastic loss and time-dependent loss. For the efficient and safe pre-stressed member design, precision calculation method is required. In this paper, experimental study and comparison analysis is conducted by measuring of tendon loss. Later, the experimental investigation would be conduct to make an estimate method of tendon loss considering effects between steel and reinforced concrete.

In this study, a structural performances of prestressed composite beam with steel pipe sleeves was verified. Steel pipe sleeves in the composite beam provide the convenience of piping and facility plans. To evaluate the flexural capacity of the composite beam, analytical and experimental investigation of four test specimens has progressed.

Tensile forces loss of pre-stressed concrete member will occur with various causes. However, there are differences between calculation results introduced by design code and test results. It is important to reduce the number of errors. In this paper, we suggest measuring of tendon strain from jacking stage. The careful placement plan of strain gauge for PS strand should be considered because of twisted tensile behavior. Later, the experimental investigation would be conduct to make an accurate estimate of tensile forces loss.

A composite structural system which combines the advantages of reinforced concrete and steel structure is a structural system that has superior performance compared to the existing structural systems. In recent years, according to the increasing of attention for composite structures, the researches for the composite structures are more carried out. The composite beam used in this study is consisted of pre-cast concrete, cast-in-place concrete, T-type steel, and reinforcing bars. The steels are only used in each ends of the beam. In this study, the reasonable steels length at the ends of the beam is analyzed by structural performance analysis for changing in the length of the steel.

This study includes an analytical investigation of a composite beam consist of concrete, structural tees, and the reinforcement steel. The plastic hinge length theories are applied to this composite beam to calculate maximum deflection exactly. This composite beam can reduce the floor height compared with the reinforced concrete structure with same internal force. To calculate maximum deflection, we used plastic hinge length suggested by Corley, Sawyer and Mattock. Later, the experimental investigation should be performed to find out the plastic hinge length exactly.

A strain compatibility method is based on the strain compatibility approach proposed by AISC (American Institute of Steel Construction, Inc.). The strain compatibility method assumes a linear strain of all the members. After that, set up the equilibrium equations of the state of stress in each component for calculating the location of the neutral axis of the cross-section in the presence. In this study, the reinforced concrete simple beam is analyzed by strain compatibility method for calculating the neutral axis and the bending moment. And then, a variation of neutral axis of the reinforced concrete simple beam is measured.
