Geogrid may be damaged during its installation in the filed. The installation damage mainly depends on two factors, which are materials used and construction activities. Materials relate to geogrid and soils, and construction activities are mainly related to installation of geogrid and compaction of soils. This paper describes the results of a series of field tests, which were conducted to assess the installation damage of the various geogrids according to different fill materials. After field installation damage tests, the change in tensile strength of geogrids was determined from wide width tensile tests using both damaged and undamaged specimens.

Geosynthetic reinforcements may be damaged during its installation in the filed. The installation damage mainly depends on two factors such as materials used and construction activities. This paper describes the results of a series of field tests, which are conducted to assess the installation damage of geogrid according to different maximum grain sizes of fills (40, 60, and 80 mm). These tests are done in three sites for twelve different kinds of geogrids. After field tests, the changes in tensile strength of the geogrids is determined from wide width tensile tests using both damaged and undamaged specimens. In the results of tests, tensile strength of the relatively flexible geogrids after field installation tests was decreased about from 20% to 40% according to the increment of the maximum grain size. On the other hand, for the relatively stiff geogrids, the loss of the tensile strength after site installation was examined below 5.2% independent of the maximum grain size of the soils. The results of this study show that the installation damage significantly depends on the stiffness of geogrid and is more obvious to a flexible geogrid and a fill material having higher maximum grain size.

In apartment housing construction, window frame installation work, which is conducted after the structural framework, is very important, because its completion time directly affects the starting time of successive interior finishing works, as well as the overall construction period. Construction delays in interior finishing works might occur due to problems inherent to the conventional window frame installation method, such as the poor verticality of window frames, and the water leakage around them. The primary objective of this study is to analyze the problems of a 'Gangform integrated PVC window frame pre-installation method' based on its pilot test results. Next, this study proposes an improved conceptual model that enables the end users to enhance the field applicability of this method in terms of productivity, time, and cost. The field applicability of the proposed 'Gangform integrated PVC window frame pre-installation method' was also verified through a survey.

Recently, there has been a growing global interest in environmental conservation, and the field of electric power equipment has been working to become more environment-friendly. Accordingly the 154[kV] low noise transformer is developed through the research. The low noise transformer decreases the audible noise level but the low noise transformer has several changes in the increase of weight and volume and the application of rubber damper. Therefore it is necessary to inspect the test, transportation, installation and operation about field application. In this paper, we investigate the standards of the audible noise level, the weight and volume of the transportation, the installation space and operation in order for effective field application.

In this paper, we report the improved driving methode using planar-gate for field emission light source. Due to the cold cathode in field emission device, it has advantage for driving system in terms of high speed pulse driving with narrow duty ratio. This paper shows that our driving method offers the stable and reliable driving system without rapid electric field variation for field emission light source.

Reduction factor for installation damage required to calculate design strength of geogrid used in MSEW(mechanically stabilized earth wall) design is usually obtained in the field test simulating real construction condition. However, damages occurred in geogrid during backfill work are influenced by many factors such as polymer types, unit weight per area, backfill construction method and gradation of backfill material and field test considering these factors demand lots of time and costs. In this study, factors affecting installation damage are analyzed and empirical method to evaluate reduction factor for installation damage using maximum particle size in backfill material is suggested.

In this paper, to investigate the influence of installation damage, a variety of full-scale field installation tests with 15 geosynthetics reinforcements and fill materials of various grain size distribution have been performed. The full-scale field installation test was conducted with reference to the FHWA (2009) guidelines. The tensile strength tests were performed by sampling up to 20 specimens randomly from the excavated geosynthetics reinforcements after compaction of fill material, and the degree of decrease in tensile strength of reinforcements due to compaction was analyzed based on the experiment results. It was found that the degree of tensile strength reduction of geosynthetics reinforcements due to the compaction of fill material is greatly influenced by the type of reinforcement and the maximum diameter of fill material. In addition, it was found that the strength reduction ratio of PET geogrid (PVC coating) with relatively small stiffness was greatest, and that the larger the maximum grain size of the fill material, the greater the strength reduction ratio. And also, a more reasonable evaluation method for the installation damage reduction factor of geosynthetics reinforcements is proposed based on the results of full-scale field installation tests in present study and the existing test results.
