| Abstract |
The purpose of this study is providing a base data by researching the appearance and structural system of concrete slab in the early 20 century. We just assume that the appearance of concrete slab is about 1900s' in the early 20 century, because we don't have any reliable evidence. With this reason, we can't confirm the first appearance of concrete slab.
So that, we firstly find the appearance and structural system of concrete slab in the east and west. They were building concrete slab earlier than korea. The objects of investigation are Deoksugung Seokjojeon(1910), Choseon Bank(1912) and Choseon Hotel(1914), which were built and designed by foreign architects, but Seokjojeon and Choseon Bank are renovated and Choseon Hotel now not exited, and so we must investigate through the documentary records.
Results from documentary records and repair reports show that many kinds of steel beams were used to build them. In the case of Seokjojeon and Choseon Bank installed corrugated iron sheet between joist beams to make concrete slab. Chosun Hotel had same structural system. But it had a different feature that steel beams which were supporting joist beam, were wrapped in concrete. |
