dc.description.abstract | Surrounded by the sea on all sides Taiwan relies heavily on port infrastructure for its modern harbor construction with quay construction playing a crucial role. Among the structural components commonly used in quay construction, the caisson directly influences the safety and reliability of harbor projects. Sliding formwork control as a key factor in ensuring smooth caisson construction and project quality is paramount for the completion of harbor construction.
Following the results of the 2021 "Protect the Reefs" referendum, the "Third Natural Gas Receiving Station of CPC Corporation" will extend the north breakwater and add 107 giant caissons, constituting the "Expansion Project of Kwun Tong Receiving Station Outlying Breakwater" in this study. These giant caissons range in height from 23m to 27m. Apart from addressing the manpower and equipment allocation required for 24-hour construction challenges include adjusting concrete workability controlling initial setting time, and regulating sliding formwork ascent rate to ensure construction quality meets standards, minimize construction risks, and adhere to the project schedule.
To tackle these challenges, this study employs inductive reasoning, case analysis, and effectiveness analysis. Firstly through literature review and case studies, the practical situation and theoretical foundation of quay construction are understood. Secondly, construction processes are thoroughly analyzed to identify potential quality issues and risks. Thirdly, sliding formwork control techniques are investigated, and quality control methods are proposed. Finally the effectiveness of quality control methods is verified through practical case examinations, ensuring the research′s practicality and operability. | en_US |
