일반적인 택코트용 유화아스팔트는 도로 포장면에 살포되고 양생되는 과정에서 공사차량 및 포설장비 타이어에 쉽게 들 러붙어서 포장면의 코팅막 훼손과 같은 심각한 문제를 일으킬 뿐 아니라, 접착력과 전단강도가 약하여 상하 포장층간 부 착력 저하로 균열, 포트홀, 밀림과 같은 포장도로 조기 파손의 주요 원인이 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 택코트 시공 후 양생시간을 현저히 단축시키고 공사차량 통행에 의한 접착 처리면 훼손을 최소화하여 아스팔트 포장의 조기 파손을 방지할 뿐 아니라, 포장체의 장기 공용성능을 크게 향상시키는 초속경성 타이어 미부착 택코트 유화아스팔트 개발과 이를 고속도로 현장에서 적용한 사례에 대해 소개하고자 한다. 해당 기술은 택코트 훼손방지 기능 외에도 폴리머가 함유된 아스팔트를 적용하여 부착강도가 매우 우수하며, 배수성 포장, SMA 포장, 교면 포장 등 특수포장의 공용성 증진효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 양생시간 또한 크게 단축되어 1액형 택코트의 경우 30분 이내에 양생이 되며, 양생 촉진제를 적용하는 2액형 택코트는 5분 내에 양생을 완료 시킬수 있어서, 시공시간 단축을 통한 조기 교통개방을 가능하게 한다. 해당 기술은 국토교통부 개질 유화아스팔트 품질기준인 RS(C)-PG70T 규격을 만족하였고, 타이어 부착률이 약 1.5% 대로 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 고속도로 현장 적용성 평가 결과, 양생시간이 5분 이내로 확인되었으며, 시공 후 현장 코어 시편 확인 결과, 택코트층이 잘 보전되어 있었으며, 포장층간의 결합력이 우수하게 유지되었다. 따라서 고속도로 뿐만 아니라 서울시와 같은 도심지 및 택코트의 충분한 양생시간을 확보하기 어려운 아스팔트 유지보수 공사에 본 기술을 적용하는 것은 매우 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.

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.

The bond property is mightily important in asphalt construction site as overlay, post-cutting overlay and new establishment of asphalt pavement. If the bonding between the lower and upper pavements isn't approriately applied, the slipping phenomenon can happen due to the tensile stress and shear stress. It can resultantly take the forms of the rutting, failure and other damages. Moreover, the greater damage phenomenon from the intense reflection cracking can be generated when the appropriate methods regarding the cracks or failures on the lower pavement aren't conducted and the bonding with its pavements isn't properly applied. In this regard, the researched content on the existing research is shown below. The types of asphalt emulsion applied to the pavement construction site are classified as Tack-Coat and Prime-Coat in South Korea. The application purpose of Tack-Coat is to bond the pavements comprised of the rigid material. And the application objective of Prime-Coat is to attach the layers consisting the disturbed materials. The best performance related to the optimum application rates depends on the type or property of the emulsified asphalt materials. To solve these phenomenons, the various researches have been globally done. The test methods to obtain the optimum application rates of the asphalt emulsion vary in different organizations or countries. The objective of this research is to develop the tester for Tack-Coat bonding property in accordance with the standards and circumstances of the pavement construction in South Korea. In the nation, the application rate of Tack-Coat is presented as 0.3 l/m2 ~ 0.6 l/m2 in the construction specification and pavement design guideline published in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MOLIT), but there aren't the specific suggestions. And, it depends on the superintendents or the ordering bodies in the construction sites. In that regard, the objectives of this paper are listed below. First, Suggestion of the test methods regarding the Interlayer Shear Strength in accordance with the domestic construction conditions and standards. Second, Development of the tester for conducting various tests using a tester. Last, Development of the predictive model for the optimum application rates of the emulsified asphalt.

PURPOSES:The purpose of this paper is to evaluate interface performance while using various tack coat materials for asphalt overlay.METHODS:The evaluation was conducted with tracking test, permeability, and interface bond strength. Tracking test was conducted using an image processing technique, to investigate the susceptibility of the tack coat materials. BBS and pull-off test were conducted to evaluate bond strength. The permeability test was conducted to evaluate the effect of tack coat materials.RESULTS :Results reveal that the trackless tack coat material demonstrates less tracking compared to other materials. Moreover, both BBS and pull-off tests can effectively evaluate the bond strength at the interface. RSC-4 was measured less bond strength. Moreover, tack coat prevents water penetration through the surface and aids the extension of the surface life of asphalt pavement.CONCLUSIONS :Trackless tack coat demonstrated a high and consistent bond strength performance. The tack coat types demonstrate marginally different performance as function of curing times. Field applicability was tested based on visual observation. Therefore, these should be considered when trackless tack coat is slightly enhanced the pavement performance based on limited this study results. Finally, it is necessary to allow reasonable time for the tack coat to completely cure.

아스팔트 덧씌우기 보수공법에서 하부 슬래브와의 접착 불량에 따른 밀림현상 및 층간 분리 (Delamination)등이 보수 공법의 공용성을 결정짓고 있다. 이 연구는 국내 노후화된 고속도로 콘크리트 포장의 덧씌우기 공법 적용 시 접착력 향상 및 시공성 향상을 위한 최적의 Tack Coat 재료 및 공법을 선 정하는데 있다. 기존 콘크리트 포장 위에 Tack Coat 도포 후 아스팔트 포설 시 양생 시간의 지연에 따라 건설 장비의 타이어 자국에 의한 접착력 감소는 피할 수가 없다. 따라서 양생 시간 단축을 위해 개발된 재료 및 골재 살포 등을 통한 공법 변경에 초점을 두고 있으며, 시험 시공을 진행하였다. 총 6가지 공법이 비교되었는 데 기존 표면의 텍스쳐 변화 여부와 Tack Coat 재료의 변화 및 골재 살포 여부 등에 따라, 접착 강도 실 험 및 Trackless 성능을 비교하였다. Tack Coat 잔류량을 시간 별로 비교한 결과 골재를 살포시 가장 효 과적으로 트럭 바퀴 자국 남김 현상(트랙킹)을 방지할 수 있었다. 접착강도 비교실험을 했을 때는 다른 Tack Coat 재료에 비해 Diamond Grinding 표면에서 높은 접착강도를 제공하였다. 개선된 RSC-4의 경 우 비교적 안정적인 강도를 제공하였으나, Tack Coat 도포 후 2시간 이상 양생을 시켜야 하며, 트랙킹에 의해 균일한 부착 면을 제공하지 못했다.

PURPOSES: A tack coat has been utilized to increase the bond performance between the surface layer and base course (intermediate course) at various road pavement sites. This is similarly true in other nations. Based on this connection, the objective of the present study is to evaluate the properties of hot mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures with an RSC-4 or BD-Coat and determine the application rate of the tack coat. METHODS: The HMA specimens were manufactured using superpave gyratory compaction. The HMA mixtures were composed of a 5-cm thick surface layer and a 10-cm thick base course. An impact hammer resonance test (IHRT) and a static load shear test were conducted to evaluate the performance of the HMA mixtures with a tack coat. From these tests, the dynamic moduli related to the high-frequency resistance and interlayer shear strength (ISS) of HMA could be obtained. RESULTS: The results of the dynamic moduli of HMA are discussed based on the resonance frequency (RF). To check the accuracy of the IHRT, we conducted a coherence analysis. A direct shear test using the application of a static load test was carried out to evaluate the interlayer shear strength (ISS) of HMA. CONCLUSIONS: The maximum ISS was demonstrated at an RSC-4 application rate of 462 gsm, and the maximum dynamic modulus was demonstrated at an RSC-4 application rate of 306 gsm. By averaging the results of the ISS, the maximum ISS values were obtained when a BD-Coat application rate of 602 gsm was applied.

PURPOSES: The performance of tack coat, commonly used for layer interface bonding, is affected by application rate and curing time. In this study, bonding strength tests were performed according to the application rate and curing time of asphalt emulsion. Based on finding from this study, optimum application rates and curing times are proposed. METHODS: In order to investigate bonding characteristic of asphalt emulsion, tests were performed on both asphalt concrete pavement and portland concrete pavement. Also, asphalt emulsions were tested at the application rate of 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8l/m2 and at the curing time of 0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 24 hours. Pull-off test and shear bonding strength test, which commonly used for bonding strength measurement of asphalt emulsion, were adopted for this study. To assess field performance under different testing condition, asphalt emulsions were applied to in-service pavement. Throughout coefficient of determination analysis between material index properties from asphalt emulsion and mechanical response from bonding strength tests, performance correlativity was analyzed. RESULTS: Test results show that optimum application rate for asphalt overlay on asphalt concrete pavement (AOA) and asphalt overlay on concrete pavement (AOC) was 0.4~0.5l/m2 and 0.3~0.5l/m2, respectively. According to the curing time increment, tensile strength and shear strength of AOC were increased to 22~44% and 20~39%, respectively. AOA case also show strength increment in tensile strength (42%) and shear strength (9%). We tested the applicability of tack coat materials at the field sites, and our findings demonstrated that the bonding (for D and E) and rapid curing (for B, C, and D, E) performances were superior than others. Among material index properties, there was a high correlation between penetration ratio and bonding strength test result. CONCLUSIONS : Result show that interlayer bonding strength was affected by asphalt emulsion type, application rate and curing time. AOC required slightly higher application (0.1l/m2) than AOA. Both AOA and AOC cases show higher strength at longer curing time. Up to 2hours of curing, rapid strength increments were observed, but strength increment ratio was decreased after 2hours of curing. From the observed correlation between penetration ratio and bonding strength, it is expected that penetration ratio can be used as one of important factors affecting bonding strength analysis.
