DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a block member and a panel structure, and more particularly to a block member such as a glass brick and a glass block, and at least the block member and a support member, which are used for an outer wall, a partition, a screen, etc. of a building. A preferred panel structure is improved.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a panel structure of this type is constructed by stacking glass blocks in an aluminum frame, for example, with joint cement interposed therebetween, or directly on a part of the structure. Are constructed by stacking glass blocks while interposing joint cement therebetween.

[0003] However, in this method, since cement is used to fix each glass block, a curing period is required, and not only the construction period is lengthened, but also when joint cement is used, the applied structure or its joint structure is not used. There is a problem that the periphery is easily stained. In particular, when a frame is used, there is a problem that it is not easy to cope with a change in panel size in relation to a structure.

Therefore, various proposals have conventionally been made to solve such a problem. For example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 50-3384 discloses a screen using a glass panel, and Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 52-30739 discloses a glass block panel.

In the former proposal, a panel unit is formed by sandwiching a sheet glass with a pair of resin lattices having a concave portion inside so that the plate glass is fitted into the concave portion. Both ends are configured to be engaged with engagement grooves of two pillars that stand upright on both sides.

According to this proposal, since the sheet glass is supported by being sandwiched by a pair of lattices, the use of an adhesive such as joint cement can be completely omitted, and the construction period can be shortened. In addition, contamination of the structure and its surroundings can be avoided.

However, since the size of the panel unit is fixed, the size of the panel unit can be changed, but the size cannot be changed in a smaller unit. Problem. In addition, since the sheet glass is merely sandwiched between a pair of lattices, the supporting strength of the sheet glass tends to be weak at the center of the panel unit, and the sheet glass is strongly vibrated or shocked. Also comes off the grid.

On the other hand, if the grid is made of a casting or the like instead of resin, the above-mentioned problem can be solved, but the weight becomes extremely heavy, so that a new problem arises in that the construction is restricted. .

[0009] The latter proposal proposes that a vertical and horizontal beam having a groove is disposed in an aluminum frame, and that the vertical and horizontal beams are provided between the frame and the vertical and horizontal beams. A glass block having a flange on the outer peripheral surface is arranged so that a rubber packing is interposed between the groove and the flange, and a joint between the frame and the vertical and horizontal rails is fixed with screws. The present invention relates to a glass block panel for use.

According to this proposal, similar to the former proposal,
The use of an adhesive such as joint cement can be completely omitted, so that the construction period can be shortened, the contamination of the building and its surroundings can be avoided, and the breakage of the glass block due to vibration and impact can be prevented. Things.

However, in the assembly process,
Since rubber packing must be interposed between the grooves of the frame, the vertical rail, the horizontal rail, and the flange of the glass block, the assembling work is troublesome and the workability tends to be reduced. In particular, the portions of the frame, the vertical crosspiece, and the horizontal crosspiece that face the glass block have a groove structure corresponding to the side shape (flange shape) of the glass block. There is also a problem that the different glass blocks cannot be used, and the compatibility is lacking.

[0012]

Accordingly, the applicant of the present invention has previously described FIGS. 12 to 1 in order to solve such a problem.
8 was proposed. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a first support which is formed in a long shape by using a metal member such as aluminum or steel, for example, a flat top plate 2 and both sides of the top plate 2. Side plate portion 3, which extends in the same direction from the portion and is formed in a substantially U-shape including the top plate portion 2,
3 and flange portions 4 and 4 extending outward from the end portions of the side plate portions 3 and in a substantially right angle direction. In particular, holes 2a are formed at predetermined intervals in the top plate portion 2, and second side plates 3, 3 adjacent to the top plate portion 2,
The slits 3a are formed at the same pitch as the holes 2a so that the support member can be inserted.
The hole 4a for attaching to the 3rd support mentioned later is formed suitably. The slit 3a located at the end is open at the end, but can be formed in the same manner as the slit 3a at the center.

One set of the first supporters 1 is arranged so that the top plates 2 face each other, and a plurality of sets are arranged at a constant interval. The second support members 5 are inserted into the respective slits 3a of the first support members 1 to form a lattice. The second support member 5 is formed in a long band shape with a metal member such as aluminum, steel, or the like, and the first support member 5 is disposed at a substantially central portion thereof at regular intervals. A hole 6 is formed so as to correspond to the hole 2a of the support 1. The first support 1 is formed as shown in FIG. 17 by punching and forming holes 2a and 4a and a slit 3a in a sheet metal state and then bending in a predetermined direction by roll forming, press forming, or the like. .

Reference numeral 7 denotes a rectangular block member 7, which includes, for example, a glass block, a glass brick, a glass panel, and the like. The block member 7 is supported by the first support 1 and the second support 5 configured in a lattice. More specifically, both end portions of the front and rear surfaces of the block member 7 are formed on the flange portions 4 and 4 of the first support 1, and both side surfaces of the block member 7 are formed on the side plate portions 3 and 3 of the first support 1. Further, the upper and lower surfaces of the block member 7 are supported by the upper edge 5a and the lower edge 5b of the second support 5.

The first support 1 and the second support 5 assembled in a lattice as described above are tightened by mounting means 8 and 9. Specifically, the mounting means 8 such as a bolt is connected to the hole 6 of the second support 5-the hole 2a of the first support 1-the hole 2a of the opposing first support 1-the second support 5 Of the pair of first support members 1 and 1, the distance between the first support members 1 and 1 forming a pair is reduced, and the flange portions 4 are inserted.
At 4, both end portions of the front and rear surfaces of the block member 7 are strongly clamped. Thereby, the first support 1 and the second support 5
Are integrated.

Next, a method of assembling the above-described panel structure will be described. First, the plurality of first support members 1 are arranged in two rows in the front and rear so as to be spaced approximately in the width of the block member 7 in an upright state, and the lowermost slit 3a of each first support member 1 The second supports 5, 5 are inserted. Then, the bolts 8 are inserted into the holes 6 of the second support 5 in the front row.
The nut 9 is inserted from the hole 2a of the first support 1 into the hole 2a of the first support 1 and the hole 6 of the second support 5 in the rear row.
And screw it in temporarily. In this state, the block member 7 is inserted between the first supports 1 and 1 from above, and the lower surface thereof is placed on the upper edge 5a of the second supports 5 and 5. Hereinafter, in a similar manner, a new block member 7 is arranged next to the original block member 7, and the block members 7 are arranged next to the new block member 7, and all the first stages (one row in the horizontal direction) are arranged. After that, the second support 5 is inserted into the second slit 3a from the bottom of the first support 1, and the bolts 8 are inserted into the respective holes 2a and 6, and the nuts 9 are attached and loosely temporarily fixed. I do. Then, both end portions of the front and rear surfaces of the block member 7 are in contact with the flange portions 4 and 4 of the first support 1, and both side surfaces of the block member 7 are in contact with the side plate portions 3 and 3 of the first support 1, respectively. After arranging and adjusting so that the lowermost bolt 8
The first support 1 and the second support
Of the supporting tool 5 is tightened.

Subsequently, the second-stage block member 7
Is inserted between the first supports 1 from above, and the lower surface thereof is placed on the upper edge 5a of the second supports 5, 5 in the second stage.
Hereinafter, in the same manner, a new block member 7 is arranged next to the first block member 7 in the second stage, and the block member 7 is arranged next to the new block member 7 in the second stage (one row in the horizontal direction). Place all. Thereafter, the second support 5 is inserted into the third slit 3a from the bottom of the first support 1, and the bolts 8 are inserted into the respective holes 2a and 6, and the nut 9 is attached to loosely temporarily fix. I do. Then, similarly to the first stage, both end portions of the front and rear surfaces of the second stage block member 7 are the first stage.
After being arranged and adjusted on the flange portions 4 and 4 of the support member 1 such that both side surfaces of the block member 7 are respectively in contact with the side plate portions 3 and 3 of the first support member 1, the second stage from the bottom Bolt 8
The first support 1 and the second support
Of the supporting tool 5 is tightened. Hereinafter, the panel shown in FIG. 13 is assembled by repeating the same operation.

According to this proposal, the first support 1 and the second support 5 having the slits 3a in the side plate portions 3, 3 are connected to each other.
The second support 5 is inserted into the slit 3a of the first support 1 so as to form a grid, and a rectangular block member 7 is formed in a grid portion. Since the upper and lower surfaces of the block member 7 are supported by the second support 5 while being supported by the flange portions 4 and 4 and the side plate portions 3 and 3 of the first support 1, The panel can be easily assembled without being affected by the side shape of the panel, and an adhesive such as joint cement is not required, thereby preventing contamination of the building and its surroundings.

Further, since the first support 1 and the second support 5 are integrally tightened at their intersecting portions by the mounting means 8 and 9, the supportability of the block member 7 can be improved. In addition, the mechanical strength of the panel can be improved, and the block member 7 is not detached from the first support 1 and the second support 5 even when vibration or impact is applied.

In addition, the block member 7 is supported by the first support 1 and the second support 5 formed in a lattice, and the first support 1 and the second support 5 are connected to each other. By setting the length to an appropriate length, the size of the panel can be arbitrarily changed in units of block members. Therefore, an excellent effect is obtained such that not only the range of application is expanded and the response to construction is facilitated, but also the construction period can be shortened.

In recent years, attention has been paid to the design effect of the use of the panel structure, and it has been used for various purposes as well as for partitioning and partitioning the structure, and the demand for the structure has been increasing. There is a strong demand for further improvement in workability and cost reduction.

However, in the above proposal, the block member 7 is supported by the first support 1 and the belt-like second support 5 assembled in a lattice shape. Since the left and right front and rear surfaces of the member 7 are clamped by the flange 4 of the first support 1, the flange 4 is exposed only on the left and right front and rear surfaces of the block member 7. For this reason, there is a problem that appearance is impaired.

The first support 1 is formed in a substantially U-shape having a slit 3a.
Because the form is different from, the type of support increases,
There is also a problem that the manufacturing tends to be complicated and it is difficult to further reduce the cost. In particular, as the size of the panel structure increases, the processing of the first support 1 becomes more complicated and causes an increase in cost.

Further, the support of the block member 7 is performed by first connecting the first support 1 and the belt-like second support 5 to the second support 5.
The support member 5 is inserted into the slit 3a of the first support member 1 to form a lattice, and then the block member 7 is placed on the second support member 5 while the block member 7 is mounted.
Since the front and rear surfaces of the left and right sides are clamped by the flange portion 4 of the first support 1, the construction can be performed considerably more efficiently than the conventional method.
There is an improvement point that it is not enough to respond to the required high efficiency and quick workability.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a block member and a panel structure which can reduce costs by a relatively simple structure, improve assemblability and assembling strength, and also improve appearance in an assembled state. Is to provide.

[0030]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, an embodiment of a block member according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
In the figure, reference numeral 20 denotes a rectangular block member which includes, for example, a glass block, a glass brick, a glass panel, and the like, and is made of glass, brick, ceramic, resin material, wood, or the like. Available. The block member 20 in the illustrated example has a planar (front) form configured to be square, but for example, rectangular, rhombic, triangular,
It can be configured in an appropriate form such as a regular polygon. The block member 20 includes, for example, a rectangular block main body 21, a first concave portion 22 having a shallow bottom formed on one surface (front surface) 21 a of the block main body 21, and the other surface (rear surface) 21 b of the block main body 21. And a flange portion integrally formed on the outer peripheral surface 21c of all sides of the block body 21 so as to protrude outward with a smaller thickness than the outer peripheral surface 21c. 24.

In particular, the flange 24 at the corner where the adjacent sides of the block body 21 intersect each other is specifically designed so that the amount of projection (projection length) from the outer peripheral surface 21c is limited. Is an arc-shaped (notched) deformed portion 2 in which the protruding length of the flange portion is reduced toward the corner portion.
5 are formed. As will be described later, when the plurality of block members 20 are arranged in a matrix to form a panel, a plurality of the deformed portions 25 adjacent to each other are formed.
The space 26 is thus formed. The flange 24
The other surface 24a is formed substantially flush with the bottom surface 23a of the second concave portion 23, but may be formed stepwise.

The block member 20 constructed as described above
Is applied to a panel structure as shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, for example. In the figure, reference numeral 30 denotes a panel support frame, for example, columns 31, 3 arranged at a constant interval.
1 and a lower part of the columns 31, 31 and the columns 31, 3
1 and a support member 33 fixed to the opposite side of the column 31. In particular, the entire length of the opposing substantially central portion of the support member 33 has a thickness substantially equal to the thickness of the flange portion 24 of the block member 20 and has a projection length that is about twice the projection length of the flange portion 24. The support projections 33a are formed integrally, and mounting holes are formed at substantially the same pitch intervals as the outer dimensions of the block member 20.

A plurality of block members 20 are arranged on the support frame 30 in a matrix so that the respective flange portions 24 abut against each other. It should be noted that a coking material such as silicone rubber may be interposed between the mutually facing surfaces of the respective flange portions 24, and the flange portions 24 may be arranged so as not to directly contact each other. A space 26 surrounded by an arc-shaped deformed portion 25 is formed at a common corner of the arranged block members 20. The flange portions 24 on each side of these block members 20 are sandwiched between a pair of band-shaped first support members 40 and 40A and second support members 50 and 50A arranged vertically and horizontally on the front and rear surfaces. It is tightened by mounting means, for example, bolts 60 and nuts (for example, cap nuts) 61.

The first support members 40, 40A and the second
Mounting holes 41, 51 are formed in the support members 50, 50A at pitches substantially the same as the external dimensions of the block member 20 (external dimensions including the flange portion 24).
In particular, the second support members 50 and 50A arranged in a portion adjacent to the support frame 30 are formed to have eyes slightly wider than the width of the second support members 50 and 50A arranged in other portions. I have. The first support members 40 and 40A and the second support member 5 which are arranged at portions not adjacent to the support frame 30
The width of 0,50A is set to be equal to or slightly larger than twice the protruding length of the flange portion on each side of the block member 20 where the deformed portion 25 is not formed.
The block members 20 are supported by the first support members 40, 40 arranged on the front and rear surfaces of the respective flange portions 24.
This is performed by inserting a bolt 60 into the holes 41, 51 and the space 26 of the A and the second support members 50, 50A, screwing a cap nut 61, and then tightening.

Next, a method of assembling the above-mentioned panel structure will be described with reference to FIGS. First, along the base member 32 and the support members 33, 33 of the support frame 30, first and second support members 40, 40A and second support members 50, 50A are formed with holes 41, 51 and the like on the front and rear surfaces thereof. The bolts 60 and the cap nuts 61 are used to temporarily loosely fix them, and the second support members 50, 50 along the support members 33, 33 are used.
A plurality of second support members 50, 50A are arranged on the front and rear surfaces of the base member 32 so as to be substantially parallel to the base member 32.
Are temporarily loosely fastened to the first support members 40 and 40A along with the bolts 60 and the cap nuts 61. Then, if necessary,
After a coking material (not shown) is applied to the end surface of the flange portion 24 on each side of the block member 20, the block member 20 is attached to the first support member 4 on the base member 32.
The first array is completed by sequentially arranging 0, 40A so as to sandwich the lower flange portion 24 from front and rear. In this state, the first support member 4 is provided on the front and rear surfaces of the flange portion 24 on the sides other than the upper side of each block member 20.
0, 40A and the second support members 50, 50A are arranged so as to abut or approach each other. It should be noted that the application of the coking material to the opposing end surfaces of the base member 32 and the support projections 33a, 33a of the support frame 30 and the block member 20 may be performed after the first-stage block members 20 are arranged. it can. In this state, the first support members 40, 40
A and the bolt 60 and the cap nut 61 attached to the lowermost holes of the second support members 50 and 50A are tightened.
As a result, the flange 24 on the lower side of the first-stage block member 20 is sandwiched by the lowermost first support members 40 and 40A.

Subsequently, the first support members 40 and 40 are provided on the front and rear surfaces of the flange portion 24 on the upper side of the first-stage block member 20.
The second support member 50, 50A is provided with a second hole 51 from the bottom, a hole 41 of the first support member 40, 40A corresponding to the hole 51, and an adjacent block member 20.
The bolt 60 is inserted into the space 26 formed by the deformed portions 25 on the upper side, and the cap nut 61 is loosely mounted and temporarily fixed. Next, the second-stage arrangement is completed by sequentially arranging the block members 20 on the first-stage block member 20 such that the respective flange portions 24 abut or approach each other. Next, the bolt 6 located in the second stage
By tightening the nut 0 and the cap nut 61, the flange 24 on the upper side of the first-stage block member 20 and the flange 24 on the lower side of the second-stage block member 20 are moved by the first support members 40 and 40A in the second stage. Commonly, the flange portion 24 on the side of the first-stage adjacent block member 20
Are commonly tightened and clamped by the second support members 50 and 50A. Hereinafter, by repeating the same operation, the panel structure shown in FIG. 3 is assembled.

The block member 20 applied to the panel structure as described above has the irregularly shaped portion 2 on the outer peripheral surface 21c of each side.
Since the flange portions 24 each having the flange 5 are integrally formed, the adjacent flange portions 24 can be simultaneously held by the first support members 40 and 40A and the second support members 50 and 50A.

The corner portion of the block member 20 has an arc-shaped deformed portion 25 for limiting the amount of protrusion of the flange portion 24.
Is formed, when the plurality of block members 20 are arranged adjacent to each other, the respective deformed portions 25
Thus, the space 26 is formed. Therefore,
By inserting the bolt 60 into the space portion 26 and tightening by the cooperative action with the cap nut 61, the flange portions 24 of the plurality of block members 20 adjacent to each other can be securely held in common and the deformed portion 25 By the formation, the formability of the block member 20 can be improved.

In addition, the formation of the space 26 described above eliminates the need for providing a means for attachment to the flange itself, so that the length of the flange 24 protruding from the outer peripheral surface 21c is reduced to, for example, about 5 mm. Even so, sufficient pinching properties can be secured.

In particular, since the first support members 40 and 40A and the second support members 50 and 50A are formed in a band shape, the flat plate material is simply cut at a predetermined width and holes are formed at predetermined intervals. It can be manufactured simply by forming. Therefore, manufacturing becomes easy and mass productivity is remarkably improved, so that not only the manufacturing cost can be reduced, but also the cost of the panel structure can be effectively reduced.

Moreover, since the respective support members are strip-shaped as described above, when assembling the panel structure, the slits of the U-shaped first support tool are formed in the slits of the U-shaped first support tool as previously proposed by the present applicant. There is no need to insert the second support, and the assembly work can be advanced simply by overlapping. Therefore, the construction of the panel structure can be efficiently performed in a short period of time.

For example, when this panel structure is applied to a part of the outer wall of a building, a coking material such as silicone rubber is interposed at a portion where the flange portion 24 of the adjacent block member 20 abuts or is close to. -By enriching, it is possible to reliably prevent water leakage into the room and also prevent intrusion of wind and the like. Further, even in the case of application to a room partition or the like, a buffering function between the block members 20 can be expected by using the coking material, and damage to the block members 20 due to strong vibration and impact can be reduced.

FIG. 7 shows another embodiment of the block member according to the present invention. The block member 20B is formed with a pair of flange portions 24, 24 integrally formed on the outer peripheral surface 21c of each side of the block body 21 having a rectangular shape and a large thickness so as to be separated from each other and protrude outward. It is configured. In particular, a deformed portion 25B such as an arc shape is formed at a flange portion located at each corner portion where adjacent sides intersect. In addition, the flange portion 24 is attached to the outer peripheral surface 21 of each side of the block body 21.
In the case where the protrusions are formed with substantially the same amount of protrusion from c, the protruding length of the flange portion 24 in the diagonal direction at the corner portion is longer than the other portions. By forming the deformed portion 25B such as, for example, the amount of protrusion is limited. One of the pair of flange portions 24, 24 on the front and rear surfaces (21a, 21b side) is formed flat, and the other surface 24a, 24a on the back side of one surface is centered. It is formed in a curved surface so that the outer diameter gradually decreases toward the surface. That is, the shape is such that the flange portion 24 is provided along the outer peripheral surface of the conventional glass block.

The block member 20B is, for example, shown in FIGS.
As shown in FIG. 9, the present invention is applied to a panel structure configured by being arranged in a matrix.
This is the same as the embodiment shown in FIG. The difference is that the first and second support members 4 are provided on the front surface (the surface on the one surface 21a side) of one flange portion 24 of the pair of flange portions.
The first and second support members 40A, 5 are attached to the rear surface (the surface on the other surface 21b side) of the other flange portion 24 on the rear surface side.
0A are arranged so as to intersect with each other, and holes 41, 51 formed in the space 26 formed by the deformed portion 25B and the first and second support members 40, 40A, 50, 50A.
The bolt 60 is inserted into the nut and tightened by twisting the cap nut 61.

According to this embodiment, although the thickness of the flange portion 24 is smaller than the outer peripheral surface, the flange portion 24 is formed to be considerably larger than the above-described embodiment, so that the first and second support members and the bolts are formed. 60, the tightening force of the cap nut 61 can be increased. Therefore, the assembly strength of the panel structure can be improved.

FIG. 10 shows a further different embodiment of the block member according to the present invention, which is basically the same as the embodiment shown in FIG. The difference is that the deformed portions 25, 25 similar to the deformed portions shown in FIG. 1 are formed in the corner portions of the pair of flange portions 24, 24 in the block member 20C, and the thickness of the flange portions 24, 24 is illustrated. 7 is smaller than the embodiment shown in FIG. In particular, this deformed part 2
Nos. 5 and 25 are configured so that the protrusion amounts of the flange portions 24 on the diagonal line of each corner portion are smaller than the protrusion amounts of the flange portions on the sides.

FIG. 11 shows another embodiment of the support member used for the panel structure according to the present invention, which is basically the same as the embodiment shown in FIG. The difference is that in a portion where the first support members 40, 40A sandwiching the block member and the second support members 50, 50A overlap, the upper support member (for example, the first support member 40) is placed on the lower support member. A bent portion 42 is formed to be bent upward by substantially the thickness of (for example, the second support member 50), and a hole 41 is formed in this portion.
Is formed. This support member is shown in FIGS.
Can be applied to the panel structure shown in FIG.

According to this embodiment, the first support member 4
Since one of the overlapping portions of the first and second support members 50 and 50A is bent substantially by the thickness of the support member, the upper support member comes into close contact with the flange portion 24 of the block member 20. As a result, the stability of the assembled state of the panel structure can be further improved.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment.
The shape may be a triangular shape, a polygonal shape or the like. As long as symmetry is obtained between the deformed portion formed on the flange portion and the block member arranged adjacently, two or more can be formed on one side, and the formation site is also set arbitrarily. it can. In particular, in the case where the deformed portion is formed on the flange portion located at the corner of the block member, the meaning of “forming a deformed portion that limits the protrusion amount of the flange portion” in the claims means that a plurality of block members are formed. When arranged in a matrix, the protrusion may be limited so as to form a space through which the mounting means can be inserted in the diagonal direction of the corner. Further, for example, one piece of an L-shaped reinforcing bracket can be fixed to the lowermost mounting means of the panel structure, and the other piece can be fixed to a base member or the like by screws or the like.

As described above, according to the present invention, since the flange portions are integrally formed on the outer peripheral surface of each side of the block member, the adjacent flange portions form a pair. It can be clamped simultaneously by the support member. Therefore, the support strength of the block member can be increased.

Further, since a deformed portion for limiting the amount of protrusion of the flange portion is formed at a symmetrical portion of the outer peripheral portion of the block member, when a plurality of block members are arranged so as to be adjacent to each other, each of the deformed portions is formed. This forms a space. For this reason, it becomes possible to tighten by the attachment means using the space portion, and it is also possible to shorten the protruding length from the outer peripheral surface of the flange portion, so that the width of the support member is reduced accordingly. it can. Therefore,
Not only does the support member not protrude above the block member as in the prior art, but also the area of the support member occupying the panel structure can be reduced and the appearance can be improved.

In particular, since the pair of supporting members are formed in a belt shape, the supporting members can be manufactured by simply cutting the flat plate material at a predetermined width, and the length thereof can be freely adjusted. Therefore, manufacturing becomes easy and mass productivity is remarkably improved, so that not only the manufacturing cost can be reduced, but also the cost of the panel structure can be effectively reduced.

Further, the pair of band-shaped support members need to be inserted into the slits of the U-shaped first support member as in the prior art when the panel structure is assembled. Instead, the assembly work can be advanced simply by overlapping. Therefore, the construction of the panel structure can be efficiently performed in a short period of time.
