On-site assembly and concrete pouring, a non-demolition legal foundation with a residual formwork for small ends.
Traditionally, the foundation works for revetments and vertical/horizontal band works were carried out using on-site concrete pouring methods with formwork assembly. However, Toho Giken Co., Ltd. has developed and popularized precast concrete products as a labor-saving method, which are widely used as slope protection and small stop blocks. However, in methods that use water-stopping sheet piles, the increase in width of the sheet piles leads to larger web dimensions, and blocks corresponding to II-W, III-W, and IV-W type water-stopping sheet piles face issues in manufacturing costs and construction due to the increase in product dimensions and the complexity of the formwork structure.
The "VE Panel" proposed by Toho Giken Co., Ltd. for slope protection foundations and small stop uses a residual steel plate frame, which can accommodate various slope gradients and specifications/dimensions. It is made from high corrosion-resistant galvanized steel plates (manufactured by Nippon Steel Corporation, Super Dima) that are processed in the factory, allowing for an assembly and installation method on-site that only requires pouring of infill concrete, eliminating the need for dismantling.
