2. Description of Related Art Including Information Disclosed Under 37 CFR 1.97 and 37 CFR 1.98.
The kerb, in general, is a means for separating a road and a sidewalk. A prefabricated product manufactured in a stone or a concrete-molded structure with a predetermined height difference high enough to form a shoulder between the road and the sidewalk is transferred to a construction site and then is installed. Alternatively, the kerb can be installed using a separate form. The aforementioned kerb, in general, is installed via a process wherein a separate form is installed at both sides of a concrete road after the concrete road has been constructed.
More specifically, the construction method of a kerb is carried out in such a way to install a prefabricated product or a separate kerb form.
As conventional technologies, there are the Korean patent registration No. 10-1196603 (a kerb construction form and a kerb construction method using the same), and the Korean patent registration No. 10-1158445 (a form for a kerb installation and a kerb installation engineering method using the same). The former technology is directed to a kerb construction form structure which is formed of an elevation guide engaged to the outer sides of a road side form panel and a sidewalk side form panel and equipped with a guide hole corresponding to an elevation guide hole of each of the road side form panel and the sidewalk side form panel, an elevation piece engaged to both ends of an elevation towing bar and engaged upwardly and downwardly elevatable to the elevation guide, and an elevation height adjusting unit engaged to the upper end surface of each of the road side form panel and the sidewalk side form panel and equipped with a height adjusting screw configured to elevate upwardly and downwardly the elevating piece with respect to the elevating guide when its lower end is engaged to the elevating piece and rotates.
The latter technology is directed to an engineering method for installing a kerb which is formed of a step for installing a batter board, a step for arranging kerb rests, a step for mounting the kerb on the rest, a step for installing in a row a casting board, a step for installing a horizontal connection part, a step for installing a guide part, a step for engaging a cover, a step for casting and curing concrete, and a step for removing the forms of the casting board and the cover.
The former technology is directed to an elevation height adjusting unit which is able to adjust a setting height when installing a prefabricated kerb, wherein the height of the prefabricated kerb can be easily adjusted. In the structure of the aforementioned form, the height of the form can be adjusted in such a way that the forms are connected using a connection pin like in the conventional form, and a kerb support member is engaged using bolts, and the elevation height adjusting unit is operated. In this case, as problems, installation and disassembling procedures may become complicated, and work time may extend, and a prefabricated kerb is employed.
The latter technology is directed to an engineering method which also uses a prefabricated kerb, wherein a bolting work should be carried out so as to connect casting boards of both sides using a horizontal connection member, and concrete should be cast and cured by installing a support member to support a kerb. In this case, work time may extend, and multiple workers and a lot of time are necessary when separating a casting board after the concrete has cured.
The present invention has been made in an effort to solve the above-described problems associated with prior art.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a prefabricated form for a kerb construction, and a construction method of a kerb using the same, wherein upper and lower ends of both sides are engaged butted, so engaging and separations can be carried easily, and the inside of the kerb is made hollow, thus minimizing weight. A joint filler is installed at an inner side, which makes it possible to easily adjust the height of a concrete casting, and longitudinal holes are formed at regular intervals at a lower end of the body, and a lower spacer is inserted into a spacer insertion hole, thus installing a fixing rod, and an upper spacer is fixedly inserted into the fixed rod and the top of the fixed rod, and it is fixed at a lower end of the form of the road side in such a way to use a form support member, by means of which the construction of a kerb can be easily carried out. Since a prefabricated form which is injection-molded using a synthetic resin, can be used, manufacturing is easy, and strength is high, and weight can be minimized, which may result in the semi-permanent use. Installation, disassembling and transfer are easy. Since the forms can be prefabricated, a minimum number of workers is necessary when installing and disassembling the forms, thus reducing work time. The manufacturing cost and maintenance cost can be minimized. Since the prefabricated forms can be used when constructing a kerb, work convenience can be enhanced, and construction period can be reduced.
To achieve the above objects, there is provided a prefabricated form for a kerb construction wherein concrete is cast and cured, thus building a kerb, which may include, but is not limited to, engaging pieces which are engaged abutted at the upper and lower ends of both sides thereof in tapered shapes, wherein fixing rod insertion holes are formed at the upper center and the engaging pieces of both sides, and a form is injected and molded using a synthetic resin in such a way that a hollow space is formed inside thereof, and a joint filter is installed at an inner upper portion of the form, and space insertion holes are formed longitudinal at the lines of the fixing rod insertion holes at a lower end of the body of the form, and plate-shaped lower spacers at both sides of which the fixing rod insertion parts are formed, are inserted therein, and when each fixing rod is inserted into the fixing rod insertion holes, the fixing rod can be fixed via the fixing rod insertion parts, and upper spacers wherein the fixing rod insertion parts are formed, are inserted at the tops of the fixing rods of both sides, whereby the forms of both sides are fixed, and a lower end of the form of one side among the forms of both sides is inserted in the form support member wherein the form mounting grooves are formed and is fixed using a concrete nail.
To achieve the above objects, there is provided a construction method of a kerb using a prefabricated form for a kerb construction, which may include, but is not limited to, a process wherein a form is installed at a road side and a sidewalk side, respectively, which are spaced-apart at the interval of a kerb so as to install the form, and form support members are fixed using concrete nails at regular intervals at the lines where the road side forms are installed, and a lower end of the road side form is mounted in a mounting groove, and the form is installed on the ground at the sidewalk side, and lower spacers are inserted from the road side to the sidewalk side in the spacer insertion holes formed at the lower ends of the form of both sides, and the fixing rods are inserted in the fixing rod insertion holes formed at the tops of the forms of both sides, and the fixing rods are inserted and fixed through the fixing rod insertion parts of the lower spacers, and the fixing rod insertion parts of the upper spacers are inserted into the tops of the fixing rods of both sides, thus fixing the tops of the forms of both sides, and subsequently concrete is cast and cured, whereby a kerb is constructed, and the forms can be disassembled in the sequence of the upper spacers, the fixing rods, the forms of both sides, and the form support members, and both sides of each of the plate-shaped lower spacers which have been bent upward, are cut off when disassembling the forms.
In the present invention, a form can be manufactured by injection-molding a synthetic resin, and a kerb construction can be carried out using the thusly manufactured forms, by means of which manufacturing is easy, and strength is high, and a finished product is light, and a semi-permanent use is available. Installation, disassembling and transfer are easy when constructing the kerbs. Since the forms are prefabricated, a minimum number of works is necessary, and work time can be reduced, and a manufacturing cost and maintenance cost can be minimized. Since the forms used to construct kerbs can be fixed and installed in a prefabricated way, work convenience can be enhanced, and construction period can be reduced.
The above and other features of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to certain exemplary embodiments thereof illustrated the accompanying drawings which are given hereinbelow by way of illustration only, and thus are not limitative of the present invention, and wherein:

In this state, the construction can be finished as it is after a plastering work. During the procedure wherein the plate-shaped lower spacers 50 and 50′ are installed, the pipes (P) may be installed at the road side and sidewalk side forms 100, and the lower spacers 50 and 50′ are passed through the insides thereof and are installed, and the lower spacers 50 and 50′ are collected after the construction is finished, and the pipes (P) will remain embedded at the kerb.
Reference character (C) in the drawings represents concrete, and (W) represents a concrete road.
The present invention provides a prefabricated form for a kerb construction and a construction method of a kerb using the same, wherein a kerb is constructed in such a way to cast and cure concrete, since a form made by an injection and molding method using a synthetic resin material, manufacturing is easy, and a firmness and stability are good, and a lightness and semi-permanent use are available, and an installation, a disassembling and transportation are easy, and the form can be manufactured in a prefabricated type, so a minimum number of workers is required when installing and disassembling the forms, by which work time can be reduced, and a manufacturing cost and a maintenance cost can be saved. Since the construction of a kerb can carried out using the aforementioned prefabricated form, a work convenience can be enhanced, and construction period can be reduced.
As illustrated in
The form 100 is made of a synthetic resin and can be manufactured via an injection molding method or an extrusion molding method. A predetermined space is made inside of each form 100, which may reduce the whole weight thereof. The spacer insertion holes 13 and 13′ may be formed longitudinal at the sides of the lines of the fixing rod insertion holes 14 and 14′ at the lower end of the body, wherein the fixing rod 20 is inserted into the fixing rod insertion holes 14 and 14′, respectively. The plate-shaped lower spacers 30 and 30′ wherein the fixing rod insertion parts 31 and 31′ are formed at both sides thereof, can be inserted into the spacer insertion holes 13 and 13′.
The engaging pieces 11 and 11′ installed at both sides of the form 100 are engaged abutted and can be fixed via fixing rod insertion parts 31 and 31′ formed at the upper center of the form 100 and at the engaging pieces 11 and 11′ of both sides.
Since the engaging pieces 11 and 11′ are engaged abutted at both sides of the form 100, and the fixing rod 20 is inserted into the fixing rod insertion holes 14 and 14′ formed at the upper center of the form 100 and the engaging pieces 11 and 11′ of both sides, it can be fixed via the fixing rod insertion parts 31 and 31′ of the lower spacers 30 and 30′.
The form 100 may be installed upright at both sides of the road side and the sidewalk, and the form 100 at the road side can be installed in such a way that the joint filler 12 is disposed in the inward direction that concrete is cast, and when concrete is cast and cured, the form 100 installed at the road side can be inserted in the mounting groove 51 and can be supported in such a way that the form support member 50 is fixed at the concrete road (W) and the ground surface.
The forms 100 of both sides can be fixed in such a way that the lower end of the fixing rod 20 inserted in the fixing rod insertion holes 14 and 14′ of the forms 100 of both sides is fixed by the lower spacers 30 and 30, and the upper end thereof is inserted in the fixing rod insertion parts 41 and 41′ of the upper spacers 40 and 40′.
As illustrated in
After the kerb has been constructed, the disassembling of the prefabricated forms can be carried out in such a way that the upper spacers 40 and 40′ are separated, and subsequently, the fixing rod 20 is separated.
Thereafter, the forms 100 of both sides are separated. The centers of the lower spacers 30 and 30′ which are disposed supporting the lower side thereof are embedded in the concrete (C), and the fixing rod insertion parts 31 and 31′ of both sides are disposed protruding outward of the concrete (C) and are bent upward by the force generating when the form 100 is separated.
The bent portions may be cut off or finished via a plastering work during the post process.
As illustrated in
Alternatively, a nightglow reflection cap may be inserted in a hollow space formed due to the pipe (P) for the sake of easier recognition at night.
