Abstract

This study examined the long-term durability of PC boxes, which was manufactured by low-carbon eco-friendly concrete using an alternative binder to cement and alternative fine aggregate to sand and microwave heat curing system to reduce the construction cost of a near-surface transit system. Based on the test results, the initial compressive strength of microwave heat cured concrete was higher than that of the steam cured concrete, but those were similar in the long-term age. In addition, there was no significant difference between the two curing conditions in the chemical resistance and the freeze-thawing resistance, and the chloride ion penetration level of the concrete cured by two methods was very low. Therefore, low-carbon eco-friendly concrete and microwave heat curing technology are expected to contribute to the economic construction of a near-surface transit system, and reduce carbon dioxide emissions and environmental impact.

본 연구에서는 저심도 도시철도시스템 구축시 건설비용의 절감을 위하여 산업부산물인 고로슬래그 미분말과 플라이애쉬로 결합재의 일부를 대체하고, 급냉 전기로 산화슬래그를 잔골재의 대체재료로 사용한 저탄소 친환경 콘크리트와 우수한 조기강도 확보와 양생비용 절감을 위한 마이크로웨이브 발열거푸집으로 제작한 PC BOX의 장기내구성 평가를 수행하였다. 평가결과, 초기강도는 발열양생 조건이 증기양생 조건에 비해 다소 높게 나타났지만 장기재령 강도는 거의 대등한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 화학저항성 및 동결융해 저항성 평가 결과, 재령별 발열 및 증기양생을 통해 제작된 PC BOX의 성능차이는 없는 것으로 나타났으며, 염소이온침투성 평가 결과 역시 발열 및 증기양생 PC BOX 모두 매우 낮은 등급의 수준을 확보하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 저탄소 친환경 콘크리트와 발열양생시스템을 적용하여 저심도 철도시스템용 PC BOX를 제작할 경우, 기존 증기양생방법과 대등한 내구성능을 확보할 수 있어 저비용의 저심도 철도시스템 콘크리트 인프라 구축에 기여할 수 있으며, 또한 증기양생 시 사용되는 화석연료의 사용량을 제로화해 이산화탄소 배출 및 환경부하를 저감할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
