Abstract The current study presents a comprehensive quality management plan for different stages of the precast concrete technology by adopting an efficient workflow methodology. In this study, data was collected using primary sources and through close observation existing control plans. aim is to identify gaps in system propose easily-adoptable process-oriented framework mitigate issues. resea...

Precast concrete components are basic element of modern construction industry. Their lifecycle involves many steps, in which the element's progress is usually tracked on paper. Similarly construction projects do not often have a formal information management process. Increased traceability and information management could address issues related to duplicated information management work, lack of...

In reinforced concrete design, there are situations where transfer of shear across a specific plane needs to be considered. Examples of such situation include corbels, bearing shoes, ledger beam bearing, and a host of connection between precast concrete elements. In this study, the shear transfer behavior of reinforced concrete is investigated experimentally by conducting test on 6 precracked p...

Abstract Precast lightweight concrete with specific gravity between 1440 kg/m 3 and 1840 , high early compressive strength is one of the alternative materials in responding to large fast demand for precast concrete, as well being easy transport. This study proposes foamed an residential construction. The background this considering limited literature reports related research on application buil...

The study investigated the performance of a specific full-scale precast concrete interior joint using many connected methods (e.g. grouted sleeves, anchorage arrangements, corbels) in core region joint, whilst monolithic cast-in-place specimen served as control. important indexes terms failure mode, hysteretic behavior, strength, deformation performance, and stiffness degradation were under low...
