Salah satu solusi untuk teknik perbaikan tanah di proyek reklamasi belawan phase I adalah dengan Preloading yang melakukan suatu kombinasi Prefabricated Vertical Drain (PVD). Metode ini dipilih karena dianggap efektif dalam mempercepat konsolidasi tanah. Serta mampu mengurangi total waktu diperlukan proses pemadatan oleh preloding. Berkaitan hal tersebut PVD juga dapat beban tambahan dibutuhkan...

Prefabricated building, as a representative of modern architecture, has been vigorously promoted, and the traditional problems large on-site labor long construction period have well solved. At present, development focus prefabricated building shifted to stage low-carbon, environmental protection, green energy-saving sustainable development. Whether low-carbon design is considered in planning gr...

With the increasing use ofprefabricated vertical drains in the improvement of soft clay there are many types of these drains, both composite (with geotextile wrapping) and monolithic (without geotextile wrapping), available in Malaysia. Some engineers have the impression that all drains perform satisfactorily. However, case studies have shown that there are cases where vertical drains failed to...

This article describes the intraoral preparation of healing abutments for use as prefabricated abutments for a cement-retained, implant-supported prosthesis. After the healing abutments are prepared, an impression is made with irreversible hydrocolloid, and the provisional restoration is fabricated indirectly. This technique is an easy and economical alternative for the fabrication of provision...

In a prospective study, we randomly allocated 39 patients with isolated fractures of the lower two-thirds of the ulnar shaft to treatment either by a prefabricated functional brace or a long-arm cast. Significantly better wrist function and a higher percentage of satisfied patients were found in the braced group. Thirteen patients returned to employment while still wearing the brace but only on...

Prefabricated construction, as innovative construction technology, has been gradually applied in the industry recent decades. However, little research focused on factors which affect project schedule of prefabricated construction. Therefore, this review aims to systematically identify and classify determinants that influence constructions. Based literature review, 13 performance projects are id...

External impact to the orbit may cause a blowout or zygomatico-maxillary fractures. Diagnosis and treatment of orbital wall fractures are based on both physical examination and computed tomography scan of the orbit. Injuries of the orbit often require a reconstruction of its orbital walls. Using computer-assisted techniques, anatomically preformed orbital implants, and intraoperative imaging of...

When traditional flap techniques are not feasible, we apply flap prefabrication, which is more complicated and sophisticated but supplies large and thin flaps. There are some disadvantages to the technique that require improvement, such as venous congestion after flap transfer, which requires months for neoangiogenesis and necessitates a vascular carrier. Here, the author presents a new techniq...

More than half of the urban population in Romania lives today in residential buildings made out of large prefabricated reinforced concrete panels. Since their initial design was made in the 1960’s, these housing units are now being technically and morally outdated, consuming large amounts of energy for heating, cooling, ventilation and lighting, while failing to meet the needs of the contempora...

This paper presents a finite element study of the stability and deformation of a cofferdam incorporating bucket foundations in soft clays at Zhuanghai Artificial Island. The development of excess pore pressures in the clays has been investigated in terms of the progress of construction, geometry of structures and hence the load resulted. The effect of prefabricated drains on the behavior of the...
