Abstract

A tightened coupler with two way-threading is suggested to overcome the previous one-way threaded coupler. The experiment and a mock-up test were conducted to analyze the constructability of the suggested coupler. The aim of the mock-up test was to assemble the suggested coupler in horizontal rebar of mat footing and vertical rebar of semi-fabricated column bars. The method using the suggested coupler in semi-fabricated column bars is developed by analyzing the problem of fabricated column bars using the one-way threaded coupler. The result of the mock-up test showed that the time required to assemble the suggested coupler in the horizontal bars is shorter than it is for the one-way threaded coupler. In addition, the method using the suggested coupler in semi-fabricated column bars has advantages such as lower working loads, supporting safe work and strongly tightening the rebar. From these results, it is revealed that the suggested coupler is adequate to use in rebar work in terms of cost, quality and time.

본 연구에서는 기존의 일방향 나사산 커플러 이음을 개선한 양방향 나사산 체결방식을 활용한 완전밀착형 커플러를 제안하고 시공성을 분석하였다. 시공성을 분석하기 위해 실물 실험 모형을 설치하여 실험하였다. 수평철근은 매트기초의 수평철근을 대상으로 실험하였다. 수직철근의 경우 기존 선조립 커플러 이음 공법의 문제점을 분석하여 반조립 커플러 이음 공법을 제안한 후 적용하였다. 적용결과 수평철근의 경우 D25와 D29 모두 양방향 나사산 커플러 이음의 체결시간이 기존 커플러 이음보다 짧은 것으로 나타났다. 수직철근은 반조립 형태로 배근할 경우 기둥 주근 한 개를 약15초에 체결할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 기존 현장 조립 커플러 이음에 비해 쉽고 안전하게 작업할 수 있고, 철근을 완전하게 밀착시킬 수 있기 때문에 품질 및 비용, 공기 측면에서 충분히 활용가능할 것으로 판단된다.
