콘크리트 도로포장의 손상은 차량의 이동에 의한 진동, 겨울철 제설제 사용, 동결융해 작용 등이 주요 손상원인으로 나타나고 있다. 이러한 손상을 해결하기 위하여 열화 원인에 능동적으로 대응하는 보수재료 및 방법이 적용되어야 하나, 일반적으로 단면복구, 부분보 수를 반복적으로 사용함으로써, 지속적인 열화 현상의 발생으로 도로포장의 기능을 상실하게 된다. 또한, 기존에 사용되고 있는 보수 재료 중 무기계 보수재료는 폴리머 모르타르, 에폭시수지 모르타르 등이 있다. 이러한 재료는 높은 압축강도를 가지고 있으나, 취성 및 부착력이 약한 단점을 나타내고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 보통포틀랜드시멘트(Ordinary Portland Cement), 칼슘알루미네이트계 재 료인 칼슘설포알루미네이트(Calcium Sulfo Aluminate) 및 비정질 알루미네이트(Amorphous Calcium Aluminate)를 사용한 보수 모르타르의 압축강도 및 내동해성을 평가하였다. 보수 모르타르의 압축강도를 분석한 결과, 비정질 알루미네이트를 사용한 보수모르타르의 압축강 도가 보통포틀랜드시멘트 및 칼슘설포알루미네이트를 사용한 보수 모르타르보다 우수하게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 한편, 보수 모르 타르의 내동해성 평가는 ASTM C 666 A법에 준하여 실험을 진행하였다. 그 결과, 칼슘설포알루미네이트 및 비정질 알루미네이트를 적용한 보수 모르타르의 상대동탄성계수가 300사이클에서 약 90%이상으로 나타나 보통포틀랜드시멘트를 사용한 보수 모르타르보다 우수한 내동해성을 나타내었다. 따라서, 칼슘설포알루미네이트 및 비정질 알루미네이트를 적용한 보수 모르타르는 우수한 압축강도 및 내동해성을 나타냄으로써 도로포장의 보수재료로 사용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
최근 국내는 이상기후에 따른 극심한 폭염이 지속되고 있으며, 잦은 국지성 호우로 인한 도로 공용수명을 현저히 단축시키고 있다. 국지성 호우 시, 도로 위 유수량의 급격한 증가는 도로 포장체 내 균열, 공극, 신축이음부를 통한 수분 침투를 가속화 한다. 이와 더불 어, 중차량의 교통하중이 반복적으로 지속 될 경우, 포장체 내부의 골재-바인더 간 결합력이 저하되어, 포트홀, 소성변형, 골재비산 등 의 포장 파손을 야기한다. 국내의 일반국도 및 고속도로에서는 아스팔트 노면 위 포트홀, 함몰, 국부적 균열 등의 파손이 발생 시, 일반적으로 파손부를 절삭 · 제거하고, 상온 또는 가열, 중온 아스팔트 혼합물로 유지보수를 수행한다. 하지만 파손부에 임시방편으로 긴급 보수재를 사용할 경우, 지속적인 강우와 차량의 교통하중으로 인해 골재와 바인더 간 결합력을 약화시키고, 신·구 포장 경계면의 부착강도가 저하되어 보수 부위가 쉽게 파손되는 문제가 발생하고 있다. 이는 고속 주행 차량의 안전을 심각하게 위협하는 요인으로 작용한다. 본 연구에서는 방수 · 부착성이 우수한 과립형 구스 매스틱 아스팔트 혼합물(Granular Guss Mastic Asphalt Mixture, 이하 GGM-AM) 을 이용해 소파 보수재료서의 적용성을 검토하기 위해 내구성능에 대한 실내 기초물성실험 결과를 비교 · 분석하였다.

In the contemporary era, 3D printing technology has become widely utilized across diverse fields, including biomedicine, industrial design, manufacturing, food processing, aerospace, and construction engineering. The inherent advantages of automation, precision, and speed associated with 3D printing have progressively led to its incorporation into road engineering. Asphalt, a temperature-responsive material that softens at high temperatures and solidifies as it cools, presents distinctive challenges and opportunities in this context. For the effective implementation of 3D printing technology in road engineering, 3D printed asphalt (3DPA) must exhibit favorable performance and printability. This requires attributes such as good fluidity, extrudability, and buildability. Furthermore, materials utilizing 3DPA for crack repair should possess high viscosity, elasticity, toughness, superior high-temperature stability, and resistance to low-temperature cracking. These characteristics ultimately contribute to enhancing pavement longevity and ensuring worker safety.
PURPOSES : The actual service life of repair methods applied to cement concrete pavement is analyzed based on de-icing agent usage.
METHODS : Highway PMS data pertaining to de-icing agent usage are classified into three grades: low (1~5 ton/lane/year), medium (5~8 ton/lane/year), and high (greater than 8 ton/lane/year). The repair methods considered include diamond grinding, patching, joint repair, partial depth repair, and asphalt overlay on five major highways. The service life of each repair method is analyzed based on the usage level of the de-icing agent.
RESULTS : The service lives of the applied repair methods are much shorter than expected. It is confirmed that the service life afforded by diamond grinding, patching, and joint repair methods are not significantly affected by the use of de-icing agents, whereas that afforded by asphalt overlay and partial depth repair methods is affected significantly. The service life afforded by the asphalt overlay and partial depth repair methods decreases at high usage levels of the de-icing agent (greater than 8 ton/lane/year).
CONCLUSIONS : Among the repair methods considered, the service life afforded by partial depth repair and asphalt overlay is affected significantly by the amount of de-icing agent used. Additionally, the differences between the expected and actual analyzed service lives should be considered in the next-generation maintenance strategy for cement concrete pavements.
PURPOSES : Recently, interest in maintaining aged concrete pavements has been increasing. An asphalt overlay is generally used for pavement maintenance, and a tack coat is used to secure interlayer adhesion. Particularly, aged concrete pavements are required for higher adhesion performance of tack coats for attaching interlayers to materials with different properties. Insufficient interlayer adhesion could cause pavement damage, such as slippage, rutting, shoving, corrugation, and pothole. In this study, we examined the performance of interface adhesion by applying a tack coat material developed for maintaining aged concrete pavement. METHODS : In this study, we examined the effect of adhesion performance at the pavement interface, using a tack coat material developed for the maintenance of aged concrete pavement. RESULTS : The developed tack coat not only accomplished the performance objectives but also improved the results by more than 12 to 43%, compared to commonly used materials. CONCLUSIONS : The use of developed tack coat is expected to improve the interlayer adhesion and reduce the delay of the maintenance process in aged concrete pavement.
PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to suggest the construction and quality control method for the re-repair of a deteriorated partial depth repair for sections of Portland cement concrete pavement. METHODS : An experimental construction was conducted to extend the repair width for removing an existing repair section. A removal method was used to ensure early performance for a deteriorated partial depth repair section. Bond strength and split tensile strength were measured at the near vertical interface layer between the existing pavement and repair material. The area was analyzed for various conditions such as the extended repair area and the removing method of the existing repair section. RESULTS : As a result of analysis of bond strength and split tensile strength, the bonding performance of a milling removed section was improved over a cutting and hand breaker removed section. The bond strength was analyzed to increase slightly as the extended repair width for removing the existing repair section increased. The split tensile strength did not show a clear relationship to an increased extended repair width of an existing removed repair section. CONCLUSIONS: The milling removal method should be applied in the removal of existing deteriorated partial depth repair sections. The extended repair width for a re-repair section should be wider than the existing partial depth repair with at least a 75-mm length and width for the bond strength and the split tensile strength.
The durability degradation of concrete pavement by winter deicer is brought up as a significant risk, and its maintenance brings a high expense. Therefore, a proper repair materials for such concrete pavement are required. In this study, the properties of compressive strength, ability to resist chloride ion penetration, and dry shrinkage of Chemically bonded ceramics(CBC) and Calcium Sulfo Aluminate based ultra rapid harding cement(CSA) were assessed to evaluate its applicability as a repair material of concrete pavement road. As a result, the CBC mortar flow showed a 220㎜, and the initial setting time of CBC was 18 minutes. The compressive strength of CBC mortar was 31.3㎫ in 2 hours, 56.6㎫ in 24 hours, and 79.1㎫ in 28 days, showing a significant level. And the ability to resist chloride ion penetrations of CBC showed 433 Coulombs, which fell under very low level. The drying shrinkage of CBC mortar until 56 days was between 150 × 10-6 with -100 × 10-6, showing a significant very low level. As above, CBC has excellent compressive strength, chloride ion penetration resistance, and volume stability, and showed better performance than CSA. Therefore, CBC in the future could be used in repair of concrete pavement.
PURPOSES: This study supports the evidence that it is possible to rehabilitate a damaged pavement with a lane closure specifically based on the Gimcheon~Sunsan project. METHODS : The prediction results from the simulation programs were compared with field monitoring, which focused on traffic management planning, congestion (length, time, and passing speed), bypass, and user cost, among others. RESULTS : The research results showed that lane closure application and pavement repair of the aged pavement in Korea were possible, even though the prediction results were minimally different from the field monitoring. The road agency contributes to service life extension of the rehabilitated pavement using this method. CONCLUSIONS: A marginal effect caused by the lane closure was observed on travelling users or vehicles, and the user cost of pavement repair decreased. Therefore, introducing the repair method or rehabilitation in Korea is possible. Information dissemination through various media was properly done to execute the project well. Moreover, the construction area traffic utilized nearby alternative roads. Therefore, improving the repaired pavemen’s service life while ensuring that the pavement management agency can provide a road with comfortable user riding quality was possible.
PURPOSES: This study aims to develop a repair material that can enhance pavement performance, inducing rapid traffic opening through early strength development and fast setting time by utilizing MgO-based patching materials for repairing road pavements. METHODS : To consider the applicability of MgO-based patching materials for repairing domestic road pavements, first, strength development and setting time of the materials were evaluated, based on MgO to KH2PO4 ratio, water to binder ratio, and addition ratio of retarder (Borax), by which the optimal mixture ratio of the developed material was obtained. To validate the performance of the developed material as a repair material, the strength(compressive strength and bonding strength) and durability (freezing, thawing, and chloride ion penetration resistance) was checked through testing, and its applicability was evaluated. RESULTS : The results showed that when an MgO-based patching material was used, the condensation time was reduced by 80%, and the compressive strength was enhanced by approximately 300%, as compared to existing cement-based repair materials. In addition, it was observed that the strength (compressive strength and bonding strength) and durability (freezing and thawing, and chloride ion penetration resistance) showed an excellent performance that satisfied the regulations. CONCLUSIONS : The results imply that an emergent repair/restoration could be covered by a rapid-hardening cement to meet the traffic limitation (i.e. the traffic restriction is only several hours for repair treatment). Furthermore, MgO-based patching materials can improve bonding strength and durability compared to existing repair materials.
