Abstract

The aim of the research is, for normal strength range concrete mixture, to evaluate the fluidity development and robustness of the mixture depending on various water reducers. Although a usage of water reducer has been essential to make a concrete under the current conditions of worsen aggregate quality, selection of appropriate performance of water reducer is significant. Hence, in this research, regarding the normal strength range mortar, three different performance of water reducers were evaluated in aspects of securing fluidity, and robustness, rheological behaviors. Additionally, for the concrete mixture, the fluidity change was evaluated depending on unit water content for each different water reducer, and the water reducing performance with manufacturing cost was compared and analyzed. By the result of this research, it is expected to provide a case of determining appropriate kind of water reducer and to contribute on conditions of securing sufficient fluidity with stable quality and economical advantage.

본 연구의 목적은 일반강도 콘크리트 배합에 있어서 다양한 감수제에 따른 유동성과 품질 안정성을 평가하는 데에 있다. 감수제의 사용은 골재 품질이 저하되는 최근의 상황에서 피할 수 없지만 적절한 성능의 감수제 사용이 중요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 일반강도 수준의 모르타르에 대하여 세 가지 종류의 감수제에 대하여 유동성 증진성능과 더불어 품질안정성을 레올로지적으로 평가하였다. 또한 콘크리트 배합에 있어서 단위수량 변화에 따른 유동성 변화를 측정하였으며 단위수량 저감효과와 그에 따른 제조원가를 산정하고 비교하였다. 본 연구를 통해 실제 현장에서 적절한 성능의 감수제를 선택할 수 있는 사례를 제공하고 이를 통해 경제적이고 효과적으로 유동성을 발휘하며 안정적인 품질을 확보할 수 있는 환경 마련에 기여하고자 한다.
