Abstract

The purposes of this study are to estimate thestrength of concrete and quantify the deterioration of concrete by a unique X-ray technique with a contrast medium. In order to estimate the strength of concrete, specimens with different water-cement ratios were fabricated using non-air-entrained concrete, air-entrained concrete and mortar to determine the relationship between their compressive strength and the transit dose obtained by the X-ray technique. Also, an experiment to quantify deterioration was carried out on specimens that were subjected to freezing and thawing action to different levels of dynamic elastic modulus. As a result of this experiment, estimation of the strength and relative dynamic elastic modulus of deteriorated mortar, concrete and air-entrained concrete was found feasible by measuring the transit dose by the X-ray technique.

본 연구의 목적은, X선조영촬영을 이용한 콘크리트강도의 평가 및 콘크리트열화의 수치화를 수행하는 것이다. 콘크리트강도를 추정하기 위하여, 물-시멘트비가 서로 다른 콘크리트를 제작하여, X선투과선량과 콘크리트강도의 관계를 구하였다. 이 실험에는 콘크리트 외에 몰탈, Non-AE 콘크리트를 이용한 실험도 수행하였다. 또한, 동결융해작용을 가해 상대동탄성계수를 변화시킨 공시체에 대하여, 열화의 수치화를 수행하였다. 실험의 결과, X선조영촬영법을 사용하면, 투과선변화량이 구해지므로, 콘크리트강도의 추정과 열화의 수치화가 가능하다는 것을 알았다.
