연속철근 콘크리트 슬래브 시스템의 균열진전 깊이와 균열폭 거동 관계 분석 Relationship between Crack Propagation Depth and Crack Width Movement in Continuously Reinforced Concrete Slab Systems
pp.83-90
PURPOSES: The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the crack propagation depth through a slab and crack width movement in continuously reinforced concrete slab systems (CRCSs).
METHODS : The crack width movements in continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) and continuously reinforced concrete railway track (CRCT) were measured in the field for different crack spacings. In addition, the crack width movements in both CRCP and CRCT were simulated using finite element models of CRCP and CRCT. The crack width movements, depending on the unit temperature change, were obtained from both the field tests and numerical analysis models..
RESULTS: The experimental analysis results show that the magnitudes of the crack width movements in CRCSs were related to not only the crack spacing, but also the crack propagation depth. In CRCP, the magnitudes of the crack width movements were more closely related to the crack propagation depths. In CRCT, the crack width movements were similar for different cracks since most were through cracks. If the numerical analysis was performed to predict the crack width movements by assuming that the crack propagates completely through the slab depth, the predicted crack width movements were similar to the actual ones in CRCT, but those may be overestimated in CRCP.
CONCLUSIONS: The magnitudes of the crack width movements in CRCSs were mainly affected by the crack propagation depths through the slabs.
