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 도로 연장은 2023년 기준 115,878km로 매년 증가하는 추세를 보이고 있다. 이중 준공 30년 이상된 노후도로의 비율은 51.5%에 해당하고 있어 도로 유지관리의 중요성이 대두되는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 아스팔트 예방적 유지보수공법인 포그씰(Fog Seal)을 실 제 공용중에 있는 도로에 적용하여 공용성 변화를 분석하였다. 공용성능 분석을 위해 차량의 휠패스 부분에서 공법당 6개의 코어를 3 차년간 채취하여 공극률 및 바인더 함량 값을 비교하였다. 분석 방법으로는 포그씰 공법을 시공하지 않은 구간을 대조군으로 선정하 여 추적조사 기간에 따른 변화 추이를 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 공극률은 포그씰 시공 이후 지속적인 감소를 보였다. 바인더 함량의 경 우 공용연수가 증가할수록 바인더 함량 또한 점차 증가하는 것으로 확인되었다. 이는 공용연수가 증가함에 따라 차량의 주행으로 인 해 표면에 도포된 포그씰이 점차 도로 표면 및 균열 속으로 스며들어 내부의 공극이 채워지는 것으로 판단된다.
PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to investigate the tendency of material property estimation under different concrete distress conditions and curling conditions when non-destructive tests such as rebound hammer and surface deflection test are applied to concrete pavement. METHODS : Nondestructive tests using Schmidt hammer and Falling Weight Deflectometer were performed to inspect the expressway concrete pavements constructed more than 20 years ago. Some results were compared with core tested elastic modulus and compressive strength. RESULTS : As a result of the rebound test, the section with Alkali-Silica Reaction(ASR) distress was outside the range of the existing estimation formula, but the control section was found to be within the range of the existing estimation formula. As a result of the physical property estimation through deflection test, the section with ASR distress showed greater fluctuations in the estimated material properties and deflection ratio compared to the control section, showing that the ASR damage seems to affect the slab deflection behavior. CONCLUSIONS : The rebound test may not sufficiently reflect the decline in material properties due to concrete damage. The deflection test can obtain results that reflect the deterioration of material properties, but it was confirmed that significant variability may occur, so it seems to necessary to perform complementary indoor core tests with nondestructive testing(NDT) tests.
PURPOSES : On a thin epoxy overlay pavement, epoxy is placed on the existing bridge deck pavement, followed by the spraying of aggregates on it. The bond strength between the existing pavement and overlay pavement is an important factor representing the performance of the thin epoxy overlay pavement, in addition to the skid resistance and roughness. Therefore, the bond strength, skid resistance, and roughness of a thin epoxy overlay pavement constructed for field tests under various field conditions are examined in this study.
METHODS : The usability of epoxy and aggregates on a thin epoxy overlay pavement is identified by testing their material properties in a laboratory. A construction test is performed using the pretreatment conditions of the existing pavement surface and the number of layers of overlay pavement as variables. The bond strength, skid resistance, and roughness are analyzed 3 d after constructing the test pavement, and immediately before and after applying repetitive traffic loadings at 6 months.
RESULTS : When the existing pavement is in good condition, as in this study, the bond strength of the thin epoxy overlay pavement is affected more significantly by the existing pavement condition than the material properties of epoxy, in which destruction is indicated in the existing pavement. The skid resistance is affected primarily by the condition of the aggregates sprayed on the epoxy. The pavement on which the aggregates are well sprayed indicate a high skid resistance. The roughness is not affected by any variables, such as the pretreatment conditions, number of thin pavement layers, and repetitive traffic loadings.
CONCLUSIONS : A long-term evaluation of the bond strength, skid resistance, and roughness will be conducted on a test pavement. In addition, another construction test will be performed to investigate the performance of a thin epoxy pavement overlaid on a bridge deck pavement under inferior conditions.
PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to measure and analyze the fugitive dust generated by each process through field tests to develop a technology to reduce fugitive dust generated during excavation-restoration work on road pavements.
METHODS : The testbed was constructed based on a typical excavation-restoration construction section and comprised five sections for reproducibility and repeated measurements. The excavation-restoration work was divided into pavement cutting, pavement crushing, pavement removal, excavation, and restoration processes and fugitive dust generated by each process was measured. Fugitive dust (TSP, PM10, PM2.5, and PM1) was measured using a GRIMM particle spectrometer, which applies the principle of a light scattering spectrometer and can be measured in real-time.
RESULTS : Analyses of the average mass concentration of PM10 generated by the excavation-restoration process are as follows: 1286.3 μg/m³ from pavement cutting, 246.8 μg/m³ from pavement crushing, 697.0 μg/m³ from pavement removal, 747.9 μg/m³ from excavation process, and 350.6 μg/m³ from the restoration process. In addition, the average particle size distribution of the excavationrestoration construction was in the order of PM10~PM2.5 (67 %), PM1 or less (24 %), and PM2.5~PM1 (9 %). The pavement cutting process is characterized by the emission of high concentrations of fugitive dust over a short time, compared to other processes. The pavement crushing process has the characteristic of steadily generating fugitive dust for a long period, although the emission concentration is small.
CONCLUSIONS : In this study, it was found that the concentration and characteristics of fugitive dust generated during road pavement excavation-restoration works vary by process and the reduction technology for each process should be developed accordingly.
