Earticle

In this study, an improved modular arch system with the lower arch space composed of a precast arch block and an outrigger was proposed as an underground culvert, and its applicability and structural behaviors were confirmed. This modular arch culvert structure with vertical walls was designed using precast blocks and by adjusting the placement spacing of concrete blocks to the upper part form an arch shape and the lower part form a vertical wall shape, based on previously researched modular arch systems. Owing to the vertical wall of the proposed modular arch system, it is possible to secure a load-carrying capacity and an arch space that can sufficiently resist the earth pressure generated from the backfill soil and loading on the arch system. To verify the structural characteristics, and applicability of the proposed modular precast arch culvert structure, a full-scale modular culvert specimen was fabricated, and a loading test was conducted. By examining its construction process and loading test results, the applicability and constructability of the proposed structure were analyzed along with its structural characteristics. In addition, its the structural predictability and safety for the applicability were evaluated by comparing the construction process and loading test results with the FE analysis results.

본 연구는 지하공동구내의 화재가 자주 발생하므로 도시가 마비되고 그 피해는 국민생활을 위협하고 막대한 재산 및 인명피해를 내고 있다. 지하공동구 화재로 인한 조기진압은 소방법의 연소방지설비 기준에 적용하였을 경우 화재 진압시 문제가 있다고 판단된다. 지하공동구의 연소방지설비 중에는 여러방식을 적용할 수가 있다. 본 연구는 물로 이용한 연소방지설비 방식중 스프링클러설비, 연결살수설비, 물분부설비 등이 있으나 아직 소방법에서 거론되지 않는 일명 워터 미스트 방식에 대해서 연구하고 방안제시를 하므로 이 논문지가 연소방지설비의 기초자료가 되었으면 한다.
