Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Chae Jiheun , Chun Jaesun
Published: October 2023

Objectives The purpose of this study is to develop a program using problem-based learning to express student agency in middle school science classes and to verify the effectiveness of the program by applying it to science classes in the third grade of middle school.
Methods Among the existing models of problem-based learning, the program was developed using the model of IMSA, and the validity of the program was reviewed by six incumbent science teachers with more than five years of educational experience. The developed program was applied to 180 third grade students at S Middle School in I City in December 2022, a pre-post test using tools to measure student agency for middle and high school students and class satisfaction survey were conducted on 135 students who agreed to participate in this study and participated in both the pre- and post-test in questionnaires. In order to analyze the results of the survey using the tools to measure student agency, a paired t-test was conducted using SPSS 12.0. In addition, the course was recorded to understand the meaning of the survey results in detail, and various data such as small group activity papers, student output, course-based evaluation data, and researchers' observation journals were used as auxiliary data. In addition, a class satisfaction survey was conducted to confirm the perception of the classes of students who participated in the program, In order to understand students' perceptions of the class in depth, semi-structured interviews were conducted after class, and the transcribed data were analyzed by recording them.
Results A total of six classes were developed and applied to students, and their effectiveness was verified. As a result of paired t-test for survey using the tools to measure student agency, there was statistically significant differnece between the pre- test and the post-test in both total student agency and their 3 sub-domains. In addition, it was confirmed that the components of student agency, such as a sense of purpose, reflective behavior, investment of time and effort, and responsibility, appeared in the course of the class. In addition, the average of the class satisfaction survey was high at 4.13. And it was confirmed that the perception of the class was positive through semi-structured interviews conducted after class.
Conclusions The program using problem-based learning for the expression of student agency developed in this study is effective in expressing student agency, and students' perception of the class is positive. Therefore, this study is expected to help middle school science teachers in the field who are considering designing the class support the expression of student agency, and to provide students who experience this program an opportunity to learn whole middle school science concepts.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Lee Jinhee , Kim Yumi
Published: October 2023

Objectives This study aimed to understand the experiences of early childhood teachers about risk play in the classroom, and in particular, paid attention to the complex effects of the physical and social characteristics of the workplace child care center.
Methods The investigator selected six early childhood teachers that were concerned about risky play in the classroom at workplace child care centers. They were interviewed with visual methodology in 24 sessions about 22 weeks, analyzed through four stages: transcription, abbreviation by subject, semantic categorization, semantic conceptualization.
Results First, teachers used the predicted degree of injury, the possibility of learning, the existence of prior consultation, existence of rules as criteria for acceptability, and divided the experience into risk-taking challenging play and risky behavior. Based on this, risk-taking challenging play is to use risky materials attributes or utilization of materials in this way, but challenging the limitations of the body or environment was considered risky behavior. Second, teachers expressed difficulties due to fear for injuries and external negative perception, violation of classroom management rules. They had experiences uncertainty where physical safety is not guaranteed, deviating from the purpose of education, freewheelingness against the static order, collisionality against manners for others. Third, despite, the teachers were having new moves such as encouraging challenges to risky play, change the meaning of infants' free bodies in the classroom, think about conflicts and boundaries in space, and cooperate with parents and faculty. In addition, Teachers demanded manpower, communicate and understand about risks and safety, time to think about classrooms and risky play, opportunities to share cases and educate.
Conclusions Teachers had a movement to understand child-risk-space as an integral element, away from rigid boundaries inside and outside the classroom and the restrictive meaning of risk and education. Therefore, it suggests educational subjects become collaborators of risky play and create a self-sustaining meaning.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Kim Tae-yun , Sim Yun hee
Published: October 2023

Objectives The purpose of this study is to identify the challenges of implementing integrated childcare in public childcare centers for infants and toddlers with disabilities and to identify institutional measures to implement integrated childcare.
Methods Face-to-face interviews were conducted with three disability childcare teachers working in state-run integrated childcare centers in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do, and non-face-to-face interviews were conducted with three early childhood specialists to collect and analyze the data.
Results The difficulties of teachers practicing disability integrated childcare are, first, the diversification of qualifications for teaching infants and toddlers with disabilities, and second, the lack of education and training opportunities for disability integrated childcare teachers. Third, they are faced with admission criteria that is inconsiderate of the childcare facility, and fourth, the therapeutic importance for children with disabilities is overlooked. The institutional measures to improve the quality of disability integrated childcare are: first, reforming childcare programs to strengthen professionalism; second, establishing an integrated childcare advisory system linked to cooperative institutions, industries and government; and third, establishing customized integrated childcare operation standards.
Conclusions This study is meaningful in that it suggests institutional measures to improve the quality of integrated childcare for infants and toddlers with disabilities through the voices of childcare teachers and early childhood specialists. It recommends further research that combines a qualitative study that conveys various voices of integrated childcare and a survey on the operational and physical environment to improve the quality of integrated childcare.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Kim Ilyoung , Kim Heera
Published: October 2023

Objectives The purpose of this study was to develop content elements and performance expectations for integrating AI literacy with music, based on the emphasis on artificial intelligence utilization education in the revised 2022 curriculum.
Methods Based on a literature review of AI literacy, this study extracted AI-related components from the “Elementary and Middle School Artificial Intelligence Education Content Standards” developed by the Ministry of Education. Subsequently, AI content elements relevant to music were identified and selected, and corresponding performance expectations for elementary and middle school levels were formulated. These content elements and performance expectations were categorized into principles and applications, aligned with the three domains of AI literacy: understanding, applying, and critiquing.
Results In the “Understanding” domain, participants grasped principles related to ‘Collection and Exploration of Music Data’ and ‘Visualization and Prediction of Music Data,’ which were then applied to activities fostering an understanding of ‘Music Elements and Characteristics through AI Utilization.’ Within the “Applying” domain, principles grounded in ‘AI Advancements and Diverse Musical Applications’ were employed for activities involving ‘Performance, Creation, and Appreciation through AI-Driven Music Engagement.’ In the “Critiquing” domain, principles concerning ‘Understanding Bias and Promoting Diversity in Music Data’ and ‘Ethics and Responsible Usage of AI in Music’ were identified. This section further encapsulates content elements and performance expectations that can be utilized to comprehend broader aspects of life and careers coexisting with AI in music, extending to the ‘Copyright and Artistic Value of AI-Generated Music Works.’
Conclusions The AI literacy-enriched music content elements and performance expectations developed in this study are expected to offer insights into the future direction of curriculum development and instructional strategies within the context of AI education. These contributions are anticipated to guide the implementation of music curricula that can effectively integrate with the evolving AI education landscape, shaping the trajectory of teaching and learning.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Lim Yoo-Na
Published: October 2023

Objectives The purpose of this study was to critically review the ‘key ideas’ introduced as the ‘big ideas’ by subject area in the 2022 Revised National Curriculum.
Methods In this study, the background and meaning of big ideas, their nature and characteristics, and the connection between big ideas and in-depth learning were theoretically explored, and the design and composition principles, presentation format, and the validity of the statements of the key ideas were reviewed.
Results As a result, it was difficult to understand the purpose, content, and design plan of the key ideas with the guidelines for the statement of key ideas, and it contained room for misunderstanding or confusion about the key ideas introduced as big ideas. In addition, through the key ideas design principle for each subject presented in the subject curriculum document, it was found that the understanding and design direction of the subject for the key ideas appeared in various ways. In terms of presentation format and content composition of key ideas, it was identified that difficulties in application caused by key ideas encompassing common curriculum, errors in statements brought about by an approach that covers three categories of content elements, and difficulties in designing classes based on big ideas due to concept obscurity and the problem of stating key ideas that did not fit as big ideas.
Conclusions Finally, for the development of future curriculum, it was proposed to conduct research to explore big ideas and set big ideas for each subject and set key concepts at the curriculum level or at the cross-subject level in the national curriculum. And to implement the 2022 revised curriculum, preparing plans for designing units based on big ideas, strengthening expertise and competence of teachers in curriculum, instruction and assessment based on big ideas were suggested.
The Doe and the She-bear: A little-known folklore tale
Authors:   Peter the Great Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography (Kunstkamera), Berezkin Yu. E. ,   Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: October 2023

Folk narratives about two women who practice gathering, one of whom treacherously murders the other, and about the victim’s children who kill the murderer’s children and run away, are recorded in the Pacific region of the United States, in Chaco, in Eastern Indonesia, in Tibet, in East Africa (only one text) and (without the motif of killing children) in Western Siberia. The characters are mostly animal characters who behave like humans. There is no doubt that specialists who study cultures of particular regions are familiar with the relevant publications, but the transcontinental parallels for such stories have never been researched. The American versions demonstrate an area correlation with the Western Stemmed Tradition that is considered now to be as old as the Clovis tradition (13,250–12,800 cal BP) if not earlier. If so, the spread of the tale in question should be dated to the time of the initial settlement of America. The sets of motifs in the Indonesian versions are slightly closer to the American ones, while the Tibetan sets share more motifs with the Siberian tradition and have American parallels as well. In addition to the presented materials in the light of data on the settlement of the world by modern man, the author addresses questions of the genres of traditional narratives.
The linguistic generation: Logocentric practices in the works of contemporary Russian artists (2010–2022)
Authors:   National Research University Higher School of Economics, Afanaseva I. A.
Published: October 2023

The article is devoted to a study of the artistic phenomenon of textuality in contemporary Russian art from 2010 to 2022. The works of contemporary artists (Ivan Simonov, Timofey Radya, Vladimir Abikh, Vladimir Logutov, Semyon Motolyants, Mayana Nasybullova), whose creative practices give the text, phrases, words, statements a lead role, are analyzed here. The works of these artists have not yet been studied in detail by art historians, art critics, and culturologists, but nowadays their creations are widely featured at Russian and foreign exhibition halls, auctions, museums and private collections. The article pays special attention to the various art forms and medias — from painting to installation, from photography to street art and performance. It considers various types of connections between the word, its image, object and semantic meanings, and analyzes the dialogues between the verbal and the visual in the Russian contemporary art. Contemporary artists often work with narratology and visual language, subtle linguistic and pictorial categories. The semantic content of many artworks is multilayer and polysyllabic. The author comes to the conclusion that verbal-visual art is an established trend on the Russian art scene, closely related to the Moscow conceptual circle (Ilya Kabakov, Victor Pivovarov, Eric Bulatov, Andrey Monastyrski, Vitaly Komar and Alexander Melamid).

Authors: Garre Pelegrina Santiago , Ramírez Rincón Boris Yesid
Published: October 2023

The Petro government’s agenda on drugs poses a refocusing on the traditional and failed prohibitionist policy. The need to deepen the understanding of the convergences between cocaine drug trafficking and its impact on the Nation’s strategic environmental assets has been indicated. Thus, it is important to understand the levels of difficulty of coca in the natural areas of special protection, the National Natural Parks. In addition, a refocusing of the policy must be based on a greater and better understanding of the relevant variables to combat the crop phenomenon. That’s’ why, the multivariate spatial analysis model that has been built seeks to contribute to all these dimensions of politics.
The consequences of environmental disclosure quality: Evidence from France
Authors: Baalouch Fatma , Damak-Ayadi Salma , Hussainey Khaled , Haj-Salem Issal
Published: October 2023

We examine the consequences of environmental disclosure (ED) quality. We test to see if ED quality affects the cost of equity capital (COEC), market valuation, and institutional investors. We focus on the French context as France is one of the pioneer countries in the mandatory adoption of ED. Our sample includes companies listed in the Société des Bourses Françaises (SBF) 120 index for the period 2009–2014. To measure ED quality, we use the qualitative attributes of information quality. The manual content analysis is then used to calculate the score of ED quality. We then link our ED measurement with measures of COEC, market valuation, and institutional ownership. Our analysis offers several interesting findings. First, it shows that ED quality negatively impacts COEC. It also shows that ED quality is negatively associated with higher market valuations. Finally, it provides evidence that ED quality positively affects institutional ownership. Our results indicate that enhancing ED quality leads to desirable economic consequences for disclosing companies and investors.
Adapting enterprise risk management principles to local government in a developing country

Published: October 2023

This article seeks to analyze the role enterprise risk management (ERM) theory plays in consequence management (CM) in the South African local government context. We advance the argument that CM, which is regarded as the synchronization of initiatives undertaken to respond and lessen the impacts of a security-related occurrence, has not been fully exploited in the local government set-up. The South African local government has been haunted by service rendering challenges due to a lack of leadership ethics among other maladministration practices (Kroukamp & Cloete, 2018). As such, they have faced some challenges in the adoption of effective, efficient, and economic actions that ensure potential risks and attacks are identified before inflicting damage to the welfare of the citizens. The study adopts a qualitative literature analysis to generate its findings. Findings reveal that the core principles of ERM, like assessment of risks and culture, threat strategic planning and objective setting, risk in implementation, risk information, interaction, reporting, and monitoring ERM performance, have the potential to enhance CM in the context of local government. ERM framework can help municipalities to understand their organizational culture and climate, and the successful implementation and management of organizational change since it provides organizations with effective governance measures such as oversight, structure, and culture that are needed to establish the goals of the organization, the means to pursue them and the ability to understand any associated risks.

Published: October 2023

В статье исследуются процессы образования диалектных слов на основе имён собственных. Описываются основные способы образования отономастической лексики, комментируются особенности её семантики и формальных преобразований производящей базы в производном слове. Источником лексического материала служат опубликованные выпуски и картотека «Словаря вологодских говоров», а также личная экспедиционная картотека автора. Доказывается, что процессы образования слов от имен собственных осуществляются по общерусским моделям, но имеют региональную структурно-семантическую специфику.

The article studies the formation of dialect words based on proper names. The ways of forming dialect words from onyms, the meanings of derivative words, the specifics of their derivational base transformations are described. The source of lexical material is the published editions and card index “Dictionary of Vologda Dialects”, as well as the author's personal expedition card file. It is proved that the processes of forming words from proper names follow the general Russian models, but have regional structural and semantic specificity.
Hybrid active learning algorithm for intent classification in dialogue systems with unlabeled noisy data
Authors: Дранга Д.И.
Published: October 2023

В статье исследуется оптимизация отбора данных для решения задачи классификации намерений в целеориентированных диалоговых системах. Для обучения модели требуются данные, размеченные асессорами, извлеченные из неразмеченных диалогов. Процесс отбора объектов для аннотации представляет особенную сложность, поскольку целевой набор намерений представляет собой лишь часть из возможных намерений, присутствующих в клиентских сообщениях. Дополнительную трудность представляет тот факт, что множество сообщений не несут в себе конкретных намерений. В статье предлагается гибридный алгоритм, учитывающий особенности задачи и объединяющий в себе методы обучения без учителя и с учителем, чтобы решить проблему отбора данных для разметки. Эксперименты на реальных диалогах показали эффективность алгоритма по сравнению с альтернативными подходами. Алгоритм применим к различным моделям классификации.

This article investigates the optimization of data selection for the task of intent classification in goal-oriented dialogue systems. Training the model requires data labeled by assessors extracted from unlabeled dialogues. Selecting objects for labeling is challenging because the target intent set represents only a subset of the potential intent present in customer messages. An additional difficulty is the fact that many messages lack intent. The article proposes a hybrid algorithm that takes into account the task specificities and combines unsupervised and supervised learning methods to address the data selection problem for labeling. Experiments on real dialogues demonstrate the algorithm effectiveness compared to alternative approaches and its applicability to various classification models.
MISLEADING METRICS: PREDATORY TRADE EXPANDS
Authors: KOÇAK Zafer
Published: October 2023

Research and scientific papers are measured, compared, and frequently ranked using journal metrics. They may also be referred to as journal rankings, journal relevance, or journal impact. Journal metrics allow academics and researchers to compare scholarly publications. The most prestigious ones are the Journal Impact Factor (JIF) based on Web of Science data, and CiteScore and SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) based on Scopus data. As we all know, the availability of these metrics for a journal is associated with its indexing in these bibliographic databases, such as the Web of Science Core Collection or Scopus, and is a proxy to determining the quality of the journal.

The number of open access journals is growing rapidly. According to a report by the University of Regensburg Library, there were more than 60,000 open access journals worldwide in 2018 (EBZ 2018). While open access has brought many benefits to academic publishing, it has also introduced us to many low-quality (Non-indexed) journals, as well as predatory journals and publishers. Thousands of journals therefore compete for manuscripts from researchers/authors. It is clear how difficult it is for new and low-quality journals to receive manuscripts in this competitive environment. Naturally, authors do not want to submit their research to journals that are not indexed or have no metrics. Recently, in some countries, publishing in predatory journals has even become a barrier to academic promotion (Koçak 2012).

Kemitraan diatur dalam Undang-undang No. 20 Tahun 2008 Tentang UMKM. UMKM memainkan peran yang cukup vital di dalam pembangunan dan pertumbuhan ekonomi. Kerjasama usaha kecil atau menengah salah satunya dapat didasarkan pada kemitraan dengan hubungan hukum berdasarkan perjanjian kemitraan. Perjanjian kemitraan harus dibuat dalam bahasa Indonesian, baik dalam bentuk perjanjian di bawah tangan maupun akta otentik yang dibuat dihadapan notaris. Salah satu contoh bentuk kemitraan di Indonesia adalah kerjasama usaha transportasi online dan waralaba. Dalam pelaksanaannya, Komisi Pengawas Persaingan Usaha (KPPU) memiliki kewenangan mengawasi perjanjian kemitraan bila dalam pelaksanaannya dianggap melanggar ketentuan UUKM, namun UU UMKM tidak mengatur lebih lanjut perihal penyelesaian sengketa. Dengan metode yuridis normatif, artikel ini akan menganalisis pelaksanaan perjanjian kemitraan dalam perspektif persaingan usaha dan bagaimana penyelesaian sengketanya yang efektif dan efisien. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa pelaksanaan kemitraan diawasi secara tertib dan teratur oleh lembaga yang dibentuk dan bertugas untuk mengawasi persaingan usaha jika terbukti Usaha Menengah memiliki dan/atau menguasai Usaha Mikro, Kecil, dan/atau menengah sebagai mitra usahanya dalam pelaksanaan hubungan kemitraan dengan mengacu pula pada ketentuan pelaksana yaitu PP No. 17 Tahun 2013. Dalam hal ini KPPU sebagai lembaga yang berwenang mengawasi pelaku usaha yang dianggap merugikan pelaku usaha lain, namun dalam hal terjadi sengketa diantara para pihak pelaku usaha dalam perjanjian kemitraan diluar konteks persaingan usaha maka dapat diselesaikan salah satunya melalui gugatan sederhana (small claims court).

Komputasi awan sebagai salah satu perkembangan teknologi informasi telah membentuk dasar infrastruktur untuk penyimpanan data berbasis internet. Meskipun penting untuk mengembangkan infrastruktur tersebut, aspek keamanan dalam komputasi awan menjadi aspek yang wajib diperhatikan. Data yang disimpan dalam komputasi awan seringkali tunduk pada hak kekayaan intelektual sehingga perlindungan dan keamanannya harus dijamin. Berkaitan dengan hal ini, persoalan terkait dengan bentuk-bentuk pelanggaran hak kekayaan intelektual dalam komputasi awan dan aspek yurisdiksi hukum dalam pelanggaran hak cipta dalam komputasi awan dibahas dalam penelitian ini. Dalam mengumpulkan data, metode yang digunakan adalah yuridis normatif dan dipaparkan secara deskriptif analitis. Data penelitian dikumpulkan melalui studi kepustakaan terhadap data sekunder. Data yang terkumpul kemudian dianalisis dengan metode analisis yuridis kualitatif. Seperti disrupsi teknologi besar lainnya, pergeseran ke komputasi awan tidak akan sepenuhnya bebas dari hambatan hukum, di mana pelanggaran hak kekayaan intelektual dapat terjadi dalam hal berkurangnya akses, kontrol, dan perlindungan atas ide, serta meningkatnya pembajakan ciptaan dan serangan keamanan pada server yang dilakukan oleh pihak yang tidak bertanggung jawab. Pelanggaran hak kekayaan intelektual yang terjadi dalam komputasi awan dapat melibatkan pengguna dan penyedia layanan. Pelanggaran-pelanggaran penyimpanan berbasis internet tersebut pada umumnya menyebabkan kerancuan yurisdiksi sehingga pengadilan harus memperhatikan lanskap dinamis hak cipta pada komputasi awan.

The aim of this study was to identify invasive aquatic species and assess ecological factors in 5 islands, namely Mipongo, Japon, Kabongo, Kingabwa and Molondo.of the Pool Malebo. A floristic inventory was conducted around these sites and physico-chemical characteristics were measured in each island between 8:00am and 3:00pm using an appropriate electronic probe. The floristic affinity between sites was determined by cluster analysis using MVSP software version 4.03, after highlighting the Jaccard's coefficient based on the presence/absence of species in the different collection sites. The comparison between the sites was carried out using the ANOVA test with SPSS 25 software for physico-chemical parameters. The findings show that 24 species were identified as invasive out of which, six were dominant, namely Eichhornia crassipes, Echinocloa pyramidalis, Pistia stratiotes, Leersia hexandra, Ludwigia abissinega, and Ludwigia sp. No significant differences were observed for the temperature (F=0.42 and p=0.66), conductivity (F=1.55 and p=0.25) and turbidity (F=2.28 and p=0.14) for the three sites. While the pH (F=4.98; p=0.026; LSD=0.361), dissolved oxygen (F=12; p=0.001; LSD=3.65) and salinity (F=4.06; p= 0.04; LSD= 1.69) showed significant variation in the three sites. The formation of vegetation groups around these islands in the Pool Malebo would also be justified by the influence of these parameters. The spread of invasive alien species on the surface of the river needs to draw more attention to scientists, policy makers and government in order to find a way to a good management of these species.

Published: October 2023

Introduction. The article describes a forward-looking technology in the field of construction industry and urban management – CIM (City Information Modeling) – an information model of a city. Emergence of the information modelling have led to the possibility to create the 3D models not only of individual objects, but also of a city as a whole with its buildings, infrastructure, geological and environmental factors. But creation and maintenance of the city models require the software tools. The aim of the present research is to make a review of the available software, describe its properties and field of application. CIM application capacities are also defined. The tasks, which can be solved by means of such a model, are described. The result of using GIS technologies in creating a city information model with respect to the data on housing stock energy efficiency level is shown.

Materials and Methods. Within the research, an analytical review of the existing software for creating an information model of a city was carried out, the works of the scientists, who contributed to the issue of urban modeling, were studied. The information sources useful for further research were identified. Geo-information systems ARC GIS 10.1 ESRI were used to create a city information model.

Results. A city information model can be described as a replication of the historical and cultural, socio-economic and religious events and phenomena; the three-dimensional models, geo-information virtual systems created by means of the space-based processing and information technologies, including BIM (Building Information Modeling) and GIS (Geographic Information Systems). The software complexes, which function based on the analysis of the valid data and creation of design entities, are used to create the information models of the urban territories. The major companies importing the urban modeling software, Autodesk and Bentley, offer both BIM and CIM tools.

Discussion and Conclusions. The term "Smart City" has become especially popular due to development of BIM technologies. This is an innovative approach based on the digital technologies application, which directly affects the activities and efficiency of provided services and rising the city living standard. For solving the thematic problems, there exist the focused technologies and tools of the modern urban environment development. The main task of the "Smart City" is enhancement of the comfort standard of the residents’ living. This task is solved by creating a city information model integrating the information about the terrain, buildings and structures, roads, green spaces, etc.
Some Technological Parameters of Construction Joints Formation Using the Self-Compacting Concrete Mixtures

Introduction. The important condition ensuring the monolithicity of the erected massive monolithic reinforced concrete structures, divided in compliance with the standards into the heat-shrinkable blocks, is the quality of construction joints in terms of the new-to-old concrete bonding. The research on the bonding strength dependence on the technological parameters of the construction joints formation using the widely spread in recent years self-compacting concretes is a relevant task, because the number of publications on the respective topic is insufficient. The aim of the present paper is to develop a scientific concept regarding the influence of the certain technological parameters on the new-to-old concrete bonding strength during the construction joints formation.

Materials and Methods. The research was carried out using the self-compacting and ordinary heavy vibratory-compacted concretes with the compressive strength ranged from 34.5 to 69.2 MPa. The object of the study was the dependence of the new-to-old concrete bonding strength on the method of standardised surface pre-treatment of the “old” concrete in a joint and the compressive strength of the grade of the “new” self-compacting concrete. The composite Mörsch specimens in which the “old” concrete was cured for up to 3 days were used as the main samples. The construction joint relative strength was considered to be the joint quality evaluation criterion equalling to the ratio of the shear strength of concrete in a composite Mörsch specimen to the minimum axial tension strength values of the “new” and “old” concrete. The quality indicators of the concrete were determined by applying the standard methodology. The specimens were cured under conditions simulating the production of works in the spring-summer season.

Results. During the research, the construction joint quality criteria in terms of the “old” to “new” concrete bonding were analysed along with the changes they undergo depending on the studied recipe (concrete grade) and technological (length of the technological break, surface treatment method) factors. The dependences of the proposed construction joint quality criterion on the “new” concrete compressive strength (grade) were obtained and the inefficiency of the surface treatment with a metal brush was shown, especially if accompanied with the technological break extension. The required bonding strength values for B25 ... B35 grade concretes can be for sure provided by the surface pre-milling, whereas the extension of the technological break has negative affect on the bonding strength.

Discussion and Conclusions. Due to the revealed low bonding strength of the “old” to “new” concretes, regardless the technological factors, it is expedient to look into the ways of ensuring the construction joint quality by implementing structural solutions such as keyed joints and (or) additional reinforcement.
Stress-Strain State Assessment of Building Subfoundations Having Flexible Constructive Scheme in Irregular Soil Stratification

Published: October 2023

Introduction. One of the main problems in the operation of buildings and structures is possibility of their damage due to non-uniform deformation of subfoundation soil caused by the various natural and technogenic factors. To establish the possible character and degree of damage of the above-surface structures, it is necessary to calculate the value of subfoun- dation relative differential settlement at the level beneath the foundation bottom. The subfoundation settlement is calculated within the compressible soil thickness using the specific gravity values and soil deformation modulus. The increment of settlement is induced by the increase of vertical stresses in the massif and increase of soil deformability upon growth of moisture. The purpose of the study is to establish the dependence of the magnitude of the relative difference in settlement on the deformation properties of soils with uneven occurrence of layers in order to predict the nature of damage to above-ground structures.

Materials and Methods. An example of subfoundation deformation calculations at the bottom level of the free-standing foundations of a building having flexible constructive scheme has been studied. A model of stratification of two heterogeneous geotechnical elements with a 1:4 boundary slope and differing physical and mechanical properties has been used. It has been assumed that one of the geotechnical elements has natural properties enabling the building foundations to rest on it without prior site preparation. Another geotechnical element has significantly worse properties. The calculations on determining the settlement have been made in accordance with the layer-wise summation methodology.

Results. The regularity in alteration of the predicted settlement value depending on the ratio of firm and soft soils thickness in the irregular stratification has been established. It has been proven that the difference between the specific gravity values of the heterogeneous beds within 10 % does not affect the depth of compressible soil thickness if the calculation of settlement is made using the layer-wise summation methodology.

Discussion and conclusions. The calculation results analysis of the subfoundation settlement of the equidistant column foundations was carried out, the engineering solution was proposed to ensure reliability per limit state groups.
