철근 콘크리트 하수관거는 경제적 장점과 내구성으로 인해 많이 사용되고 있다. 오랜 공용시간 이후 하수관거는 하 수의 산화물과 공용하중에 의해 열화가 진행된다. 본 논문은 초고강도 콘크리트로 갱생한 열화된 콘크리트 하수관거의 구조적 성능에 대해 연구하였다. 실험변수는 초고강도 콘크리트 관거 상부슬래브와 벽체의 두께의 조합으로 구성하였다. 네가지 종류의 초고강도 콘크리트 관거가 극한하중을 받을 때까지 내하력을 파악하기 위해 실험을 진행하였다. 보통 강도 콘크리트에 비해 상 대적으로 작은 두께의 초고강도 콘크리트 관거는 열화된 내부 부분을 치핑하고 갱생함으로써 단면의 손실을 최소화할 수 있다. 실험결과에 의하면 열화된 콘크리트 관거를 갱생하는데 적용된 새로운 얇은 두께의 초고강도 콘크리트 구조물이 재하하중을 만 족하고 실제 공학적 적용에 용이성을 있음을 나타내고 있다.

PURPOSES: The purpose of this study is to determine the effective maintenance method for a deteriorated jointed plain concrete pavement by evaluating the long-term performance of the repaired concrete overlay sections. METHODS: Long-term performance evaluation was conducted for the test section at the intersection between SeoPa and IlDong in National Road No. 37. Firstly, the distress conditions of the concrete pavement, which was constructed in December 2003, were evaluated by referring to the existing report. Secondly, the results of pretreatment, material properties, and initial performance evaluation were analyzed for the overlay test conducted in 2011. Finally, a field survey was carried out using visual inspection and nondestructive testing with a FWD in August 2018, and long-term performance evaluation was conducted for about seven years after maintenance. RESULTS: Visual inspection of the old concrete pavement showed severe damage such as joint spalling and asphalt patching. The cores taken from the old concrete had indirect tensile strength of 2.6-3.8 MPa. It is difficult to determine the freeze-thaw resistance because the average amount of air was only 1.6-2.2%, and spacing factor values were over 400㎛ regardless of location. During maintenance, overlay and partial depth repair were performed by applying three types of overlay materials which are typical in Korea. On the material side, high compressive strength (over 40 MPa) and chlorine ion penetration resistance (less than 1,000 coulomb) at 56 days were achieved. In August 2018, seven years after maintenance, visual inspection and nondestructive testing using FWD were conducted for long-term performance evaluation. Regardless of the maintenance materials, surface deficiencies such as spalling and map cracking occurred extensively near the joint. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, if the strength and durability index of aged concrete pavement is low, then it was determined that partial depth repair at the joint is not an effective maintenance alternative. In the case of overlay, the durability of the overlay material is considered the most important factor. In the absence of adequate reinforcement at the joint of the distressed concrete pavement, freeze-thaw damage caused by moisture penetration through the joint and failure of the old concrete are repeated, making it difficult to ensure long-term durability.

In recent years, pavement distresses have been caused by diverse factors such as spalling, deterioration of repaired sections, blow-up, and alkali aggregate reaction due to changing climate environment of a concrete pavement and its construction and maintenance conditions (supply of materials, increase in use of de-icers, etc,). As a leading repair method for deteriorated concrete pavements, partial-depth repair is implemented in accordance with guidelines of material properties for joints of a concrete pavement and field application evaluation systems, but still some of the repaired sections become deteriorated again at an early stage due to poor construction quality and failure of response to environmental impacts. Distresses that can be corrected with partial-depth repairs are largely divided into those of repair materials and of the existing pavement bonded to repair materials, and combined distress of repair materials and the existing pavement. Although re-repair methods should be different by distress type and scale than conventional pavement repair methods, appropriate repair methods and guidance for re-repairs have not been in place so far, and therefore currently, re-repair practices follow the existing manual of partial depth repairs. Therefore, this study evaluated concrete bond characteristics by removing method and repair scope for an experimental section of frequently distressed pavements to determine a re-repair scope and method for deteriorated partial depth repair sections of concrete pavement, the number of which has increased over time.

PURPOSES: Concrete pavement has been used in the construction of the Jungbu expressway in 1987. More than 60% of the pavement on the expressway is currently made of concrete, but most has been used far beyond their design life. Pavement life has been extended through routine maintenance or overlay. However, the structural capacity of the pavement has reached its limit, and extensive rehabilitation/reconstruction with long time traffic blocking should be considered. The three following issues on concrete rehabilitation/reconstruction will be discussed: (1) economic comparison of asphalt inlay and asphalt overlay, (2) economic comparison preventive overlay on a section which is currently good and routine overlay on the section which will be poor, and (3) economic analysis of early-strength concrete when it is used in concrete reconstruction. METHODS: First, various life cycle cost analysis tools were compared, and the proper tool for the extensive rehabilitation/reconstruction was selected. Second, a sensitivity analysis of the selected tool was performed to find the influential input variables, which should be carefully selected in the analysis. Third, three case studies, which can be issues in the rehabilitation/reconstruction of the expressway concrete pavement in Korea, were performed. RESULTS: Asphalt overlay without milling the deteriorated concrete showed 18~25% lower life cycle cost than the current asphalt inlay with milling. The good current preventive overlay on the section was economically justified within the scope of this study. The construction cost limit of the early strength concrete was suggested to be economical for 1, 3, and 7 days of construction alternative opening. CONCLUSIONS: CA4PRS was a viable tool for comparing various rehabilitation/reconstruction issue alternatives. Several concrete issues associated with the rehabilitation/reconstruction of the deteriorated concrete pavement were discussed as mentioned above.

기존 구조물의 손상평가에 관한 연구는 지진 등과 같은 과도한 하중에 의한 손상을 고려하였다. 그러나 구조물은 과도한 하중없이도 장기간의 시간에 따라 염화물, 탄성화 등과 같은 이유로 노후화가 진행되어 구조성능이 저하될 수 있다. 그래서 구조물의 건전도를 효과적으로 관리하기 위해서는 노후화에 의한 구조성능 저하도 검토되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 염화물에 의한 철근의 부식을 노후화 요인으로 고려한다. 철근부식에 의한 재료의 구조성능 저하를 고려하기 위해 부식정도에 따른 철근의 단면적, 항복강도, 파단변형률, 피복 콘크리트 강도 등을 예측한다. 이를 구조모델링에 적용하여 구조부재 및 구조물의 구조성능 저하를 분석한다. 구조부재의 구조성능을 분석하기 위해 모멘트-곡률 해석을 수행한다. 구조물 레벨의 구조성능을 고려하기 위해, 고유치해석을 통한 고유주기와 모드형상을 분석한다. 또한 비선형 정적해석을 통해 구조물의 강도와 변형성능을 분석한다.

As the durability, reparability and maintainability of reinforced concrete structures are emphasized, the early perfomance degradation of concrete structures becomes a serious problem. Moreover, defects in construction materials and constructions inconsistent with the design promote the degradation of perfomance. Some worst buildings have fallen into an irreparable state within a few years. In particular, carbonation in concrete structures has been handled as the most fundamental and critical factor related to the durability of reinforced concrete. As a result, there have been efforts to develop repair materials to control carbonation. As one of these efforts, alkali recovery agents have been presented as materials for increasing the re-alkalization and durability of carbonated concrete structures. However, in applying them in the field, the performance and quality of concrete recovered after an alkali recovery agent is applied has not been fully assessed. Therefore, to examine the recovered perfomance of concrete structures resulting from the application of an alkali recovery agent, the present study assessed the depth of carbonation and the degree of deterioration of 20 years or older reinforced concrete structures, and analyzed the quality of concrete after applying an alkali recovery agent to the structures. This study aimed at providing basic infomation for the application of alkali recovery agents in the fleld. In this experiment, alkali recovery agents of the lithium silicate line, which are most common in Korea, were applied and cured using concrete of the same size. The degree of recovery was investigated according to the length of time in the initial curing stage, and based on the investigation, the maintenance perfomance of the alkali recovery agent was assessed according to the age of exposure to the open air. For these tasks, this experiment sampled concrete of different degrees of deterioration, applied alkali recovery agents to them, and observed re-alkalization and changes in the internal texture of the concrete.

기존 연구에서 살펴보면, 철근콘크리트구조물에 발생한 화재로 인해 경화된 시멘트 페이스트와 골재의 수축과 팽창의 차이에 따라 조직이 와해되고, 열응력에 의해 균열이 발생하여 내구성이 저하한다. 그래서 성능저하의 정확한 진단은 일반적인 콘크리트구조물에서 방화성능저하의 매커니즘에 관한 기초가 요구되며, 고온에 노출된 콘크리트의 특성에 대한 기초 정보와 데이터는 성능저하의 정확한 진단을 위해 필요하다. 따라서, 본 연구는 다양한 콘크리트 시험체를 제작하여, 고온 환경에서 노출시켜, 폭열을 관찰하고, 공학적인 특성을 평가함으로서 화재피해를 입은 콘크리트구조물 성능저하의 빠르고 정확한 진단을 위한 기초적인 데이터를 제공하고자 한다.

콘크리트의 열화 및 철근부식에 대응하기 위하여 다양한 보수재료가 존재하나 이러한 보수재료를 평가하는 방법은 단순히 염해, 중성화 등의 단독열화만을 대상으로 하고 있어 여러 가지 열화인자가 복합적으로 작용하는 실제 환경과는 차이를 나타내게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 폴리머시멘트계 보수용 단면복구재가 KS 기준을 만족하는지 확인한 후 복합열화 환경 하에서 염해, 중성화. 철근부식을 평가하였다. 실험결과 각각의 보수재료들은 KS 기준을 만족하였지만 내구성능은 상이하게 나타나 향후 이에 대한 고려가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
