CONSTRUCTION OF ARTIFICIAL GROUND

PURPOSE:To obtain an artificial ground which can be easily constructed at low cost and in a short period. CONSTITUTION:A PC pile 11 is used for piling. A reinforced concrete post 12 covered with a steel cylinder 12b with a fitting part of beams at the upper part thereof is used as a post. The piles 11 are driven respectively in a number of post positions of an artificial ground. The lower part of the posts 12 is jointed to the upper part of the piles during the driving piles so that the upper ends of respective posts 12 are arranged at a specified level. The ends of respective steel-framed beams 13 are connected to the fitting parts of beams 12b1 12b2, 12b3, of respective posts. PC floor plates 15 are placed on the upper side of respective steel-framed beams 13 and reinforcing rods R3 for the slab are arranged on the upper side of the PC floor plates 15. Concrete C1 is placed at the upper side of the PC floor plates to form a slab 16 made of reinforcing concrete and also concrete is placed in the hollow spaces h3 of respective posts. In this way, forms, supports, etc., are not required and hence, the construction period is reduced.
