국내에서는 공용 중인 교량의 덧씌우기식 교면 포장 공사에서 빠른 개통을 위해 초속경 시멘트와 라텍스를 이용한 초속경 LMC 콘 크리트가 주로 적용된다. 고속도로에서는 교통 개방을 위한 콘크리트의 기준 강도를 압축강도 21MPa로 정하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 시공된 콘크리트의 강도 추정을 위한 적절한 비파괴 시험 방법을 선정하기 위해 약간의 손상을 포함하는 Break-off 시험을 적용하였 다. 실내 실험을 통해 수립된 시험 절차에 따라 47개 현장에서 시험을 수행하여 압축강도와 상관관계를 분석하였고, 현장적용성을 확 인하였다.

국내 시멘트 콘크리트계 교면포장의 개방강도는 압축강도를 기준으로 하고 있으나, 현장의 양생 조건과 동일한 콘크리트의 강도를 추정하여야 한다. 약간의 손상을 포함하는 비파괴 시험이 표면에서 측정하는 방법보다 압축강도와 상관관계가 높으므로, 본 연구에서 는 Break-off 시험과 압축강도의 관계를 도출하기 위한 일련의 연구를 수행하였다. 6개의 초속경 LMC 배합에 대해서 Break-off 시험을 수행하였고, 국내 교면포장 현장에 적합한 코어의 크기를 정하였다. 또한 유압펌프와 압력게이지, 가력부로 구성된 자체 시험기를 개 발하였다. Break-off 시험 결과 압축강도와 높은 상관관계를 나타내었고, 국내 시멘트 콘크리트 교면포장의 경계조건을 고려할 경우, 높이 70mm의 코어를 형성하는 것이 합리적이고, 신설포장이나 단면보수의 경우 높이 50mm인 코어를 사용할 수 있도록 제안하였다.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to identify the dynamic behavior of a cement concrete paving machine (paver) by measuring its response using accelerometers. This is because the dynamic behavior of pavers affects the quality of data from various applications of IoT sensors, such as laser, ultrasonic, optical sensors and so on. Therefore, it is believed that the understanding of dynamic behaviors can contribute to the effective use of various IoT sensors for the acquisition of real-time quality control data in pavement construction. METHODS : Dynamic signals are obtained using accelerometer sensors to identify the dynamic characteristics of paving machines. The main parameters for acquiring dynamic signals are the status of the machine’s operating or standby conditions, and available locations for attaching various IoT sensors. Time domain data are logged at a particular sampling speed using a low-pass filter, subsequently, they are converted to digital data, which are analyzed on three rectangular axes. In addition frequency analysis is conducted on the measured data for identifying the peak frequencies, via FFT (Fast-Fourier-Transform) using MATLAB. RESULTS : The magnitude of the x-directional vibration is higher than that of any other direction under the paver’s operating or standby condition. However, signals from the smoother beam show that the z-directional vibration is more significant in the operating status. It means that the primary vibration depends on the location. Furthermore, the peak frequencies are quite various depending on the status of a paver and its sensing location. CONCLUSIONS : The magnitude of machine vibration and peak frequencies at each status or location are identified from time- and frequency-domain data. When using IoT sensors for quality control or monitoring pavements in construction, the dynamic characteristics of a paver should be considered to mitigate the interference of signals from the paver body or its elements.

PURPOSES : For high driving performance and service life of cement concrete pavement, construction quality must be secured. The construction quality is to be measured after pavement construction, but in this case, it is difficult to improve construction quality. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a method for measuring and correcting the profile of the pavement and subbase so that the construction quality can be monitored immediately after construction. METHODS : The device that can measure the construction quality of cement concrete pavement has been developed. Through the experiment simulating the field situation, the profile of the pavement and subbase was measured and calibration method was developed. RESULTS : In the measured profile, an outlier by the sensor and noise by the sensor and vibration were measured, and a step-like profile was measured differently from the acture one. To remove outliers, the boxplot outlier removal method was applied by overlapping each data group. The noise were removed by a low pass filtering. And, it was calibrated to a profile similar to the acture one through the sampling interval adjustment and the weighted moving average method. CONCLUSIONS : The method that can measure and calibrate the profile that is almost identical to the actual one has been developed. Accordingly, it is expected that the performance of the pavement can be improved by accurately monitoring the construction quality immediately after construction.

PURPOSES : This paper presents the experimental results of tests conducted on concrete produced with air-cooled (AS) and water-cooled (WS) ground blast-furnace slag exposed to multi-deterioration environments of carbonation and scaling. METHODS : Carbonated and uncarbonated concrete specimens were regularly monitored according to the ASTM C 672 standard to evaluate the durability of concrete exposed to both scaling and combined carbonation and scaling conditions. Additionally, mechanical properties, such as compressive strength, flexural strength, and surface electric resistivity, were analyzed. RESULTS : It was found that concrete specimens produced with AS and WS had a beneficial effect on the mechanical properties because of the latent hydraulic properties of the AS and WS mineral admixtures. Moreover, carbonated concrete showed good scaling resistance in comparison to uncarbonated concrete, particularly for concrete produced with AS and WS. CONCLUSIONS : The improved scaling resistance of carbonated concrete showed that AS is a suitable option for binders used in cement concrete pavements subjected to combined carbonation and scaling.

교면 포장은 교통하중 및 온도 변화 등의 환경적 요인에 따라 상판, 거더, 신축/압축 이음 등의 교량 상부 구조물의 복잡한 거동을 나타나기 때문에 도로포장의 구조 성능과는 다르다. 이에 본 논문에서는 가변형 팬믹서를 활용하여 개질유황 합성 시멘트 콘크리트(MSCC)를 혼합하는 새로운 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 혼합 단계는 건식 및 습식의 두 단계로 이루어지며, 회전 모터의 속도의 변화를 주어 혼합하는 방식이다. 제안된 방법의 타당성을 평가하기 위해 실내 실험을 실시하였으며, 본 기술 적용 시 MSCC의 내구성이 향상되고 교량 포장 설계 요건을 충족하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 내구성 및 경제성을 고려하여 최적 MSCC 개질유황 함량을 4%로 제안하고자 한다. 현재 제안된 기술의 적용 가능성을 확인하기 위한 추가적인 현장 평가가 수행되고 있으며, 가까운 시일 내에 결과를 제시할 예정이다.

OBJECTIVES: This study is to develop the optimum mixing proportions for cement concrete pavement with using recycled aggregates. METHODS: The mixture varied recycled coarse aggregates content from 50 % to 100 % to replace the natural coarse aggregates by weight. Tests for fundamental properties as a cement concrete pavement were conducted before and after hardening of the concrete. RESULTS: It was found that the variation in the amount of the recycled aggregate affected the compressive and flexural strength development, as well as the chloride ion penetration resistance. As the amount of the recycled aggregate content increased the compressive and flexural strength and the resistance to chloride ion penetration decreased. However, the resistance to freeze-thaw reaction was affected significantly. In addition, the gradation of the aggregate became worse and hence so did the coarseness factor as the recycled aggregate amount increased. CONCLUSIONS : The fundamental properties of the concrete with recycled aggregate does not seem to be appropriate when the recycled aggregate quality is not guaranteed up to a some level and its replacement ratio is over 50%. The optimized gradation of the aggregates should also be sought when the recycled aggregate is used for the cement concrete pavement materials.
