Reinforcement member and construction method

A method for reinforcing a structure buried underground, the method comprising:

• inserting an anchor bolt provided to protrude from an inner surface of the structure into an elongated hole formed in a reinforcement member, wherein the reinforcement member is in contact with a side wall inner surface of the inner surface of the structure;
• when the reinforcement member is in a combination of states including an inserted state and in an unfixed state, moving the reinforcement member relative to the anchor bolt, wherein the inserted state represents the anchor bolt being inserted into the elongated hole of the reinforcement member, and wherein the unfixed state represents the reinforcement member is not fixed to the structure;
• and
• when the reinforcement member is in a fixed state, determining a position of the reinforcement member, wherein the fixed state represents the reinforcement member being fixed to the structure, and wherein the reinforcement member in contact with the side wall inner surface of the inner surface of the structure has a vertical length of a least a predetermined length relative to a vertical position of an installed equipment attached to the side wall inner surface of the inner surface of the structure from a lower floor inner surface of the structure.

A system of a structure buried underground, the system comprising:

• the structure including:
• a side wall,
• an upper floor slab,
• a lower floor slab, and
• a corner portion;
• and
• a reinforcement member, wherein the reinforcement member is in contact with a side wall inner surface representing an inner surface of the side wall of the structure, wherein the reinforcement member has a vertical length of a least a predetermined length relative to a vertical position of an installed equipment attached to the side wall inner surface of the inner surface of the structure from a lower floor inner surface of the structure,
• the reinforcement member comprising:
• an insertion hole, wherein the insertion hole receives an anchor bolt provided to protrude from the inner surface of the structure, wherein the insertion hole is an elongated hole allowing the reinforcement member to move relative to the anchor bolt when the reinforcement member is in a combination of states including:
• an inserted state in which the anchor bolt is inserted into the insertion hole, and
• an unfixed state in which the reinforcement member is not fixed to the structure.
