Abstract

This paper summarizes the design procedure and constructibility of an ECC (Engineered Cementitious Composite), which is a synthetic fiber-reinforced composite produced with the Portland cement-based mortar matrix. This study employs a stepwise method to develop useful ECC in construction field, which possesses different fluid properties to facilitate diverse types of processing (i.e., self-consolidating or spray processing). To control the rheological properties of the composite, the aggregates and reinforcing fibers were initially selected based on micromechanical analysis and steady-state cracking theory. The stability and consequent viscosity of the suspensions were then mediated by optimizing the dosage of the chemical and mineral admixtures. The rheological properties altered through this approach were revealed to be effective in obtaining ECC-hardened properties, represented by pseudo strain-hardening behavior in uniaxial tension, allowing the readily achievement of the desired function of the fresh ECC.

이 논문은 합성섬유를 이용하여 포틀랜드 시멘트 모르타르를 보강한 복합재료인 ECC(Engineered Cementitious Composite)의 설계 과정과 건설현장에 이 복합재료를 적용할 수 있도록 시공성을 부여한 연구 내용을 정리하였다. 이 연구에서는 다양한 시공성, 즉 자기충전(self·consolidating)과 스프레이 시공성을 갖는 ECC를 제작하기 위하여 단계적인 재료 개발 방법론을 채택하였다. 우선 마이크로역학(micromechanics)과 안정상태균열이론(steady-state cracking theory)을 이용하여 골재와 섬유를 선정한 후, 굳기 전 재료의 레올로지를 제어하는 방법으로 시공성을 구현하였다. 여기서, 굳기 전 재료의 레올로지를 제어하기 위하여 화학첨가제(chemical admixtures)와 광물첨가재(mineral admixtures)의 양을 소량으로 조절하는 방법을 사용하였다. 이러한 방법을 활용함으로써 굳기 전에는 다양한 시공성을 나타내면서, 굳은 후에는 높은 연성(인장변형경화 거동)을 나타내는 실용적인 ECC 복합재료를 개발하였다.
