Abstract

Concrete structures built on reclaimed land are combined with chemical erosion such as chlorine and sulfate ions from seawater. Chloride attack deteriorates the performance of the structure by corroding reinforcing bars. In addition, the waste water treatment structure has a problem that the concrete is deteriorated by the sulfate generated inside. Therefore, in this study, the characteristics and chemical resistance of low heat cement concrete used in wastewater treatment structures constructed on reclaimed land were evaluated. As a result of the experiment, the target slump and air content were satisfied under all the mixing conditions. The slump of low heat cement (LHC) concrete was higher than that of ordinary portland cement (OPC) concrete, while the air content of LHC concrete was smaller than that of OPC concrete with the same mix proportion. As a result of compressive strength test, OPC concrete showed higher strength at younger age compared to 28 days. In contrast, LHC concrete exhibited higher strength than OPC concrete at the age of 56 days. As a result of chlorine ion penetration tests, LHC-B concrete showed chlorine ion penetration resistance performance of the "very low" level at the age of 56 days. As a result of chemical resistance evaluation, when the LHC concrete is applied without epoxy treatment, chemical resistance is improved by about 18% compared to OPC concrete. In testing chemical resistance, the epoxy coated concrete exhibited less than 5% strength reduction when compared to sound concrete.

해안매립지에 건설되는 구조물은 해수로부터 유입되는 염소 및 황산염 이온 등의 화학적 침식에 의한 영향을 복합적으로 받는다. 염해는 콘크리트 내부의 철근을 부식시켜 구조물의 성능을 저하시킨다. 또한, 하수처리시설에서는 내부에서 발생되는 황산염에 의해 콘크리트가 열화되는 문제점을 가진다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 해안매립지에 건설되는 하수처리구조물에 적용할 수 있는 혼합형 저발열시멘트의 특성 및 내화학성을 평가하였다. 실험결과, 모든 배합조건에서 목표슬럼프 및 공기량을 모두 만족하였다. 동일 배합조건에서 LHC사용시 OPC 보다 슬럼프는 증가되고, 공기량은 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 압축강도 시험결과, 초기재령에서는 OPC의 강도발현이 빨랐으며, 28일 이후 LHC가 OPC보다 높은 강도를 나타내었다. 염소이온침투저항성 평가결과, LHC-B의 경우 56일 재령에서, "매우낮음" 단계의 염소이온침투저항성을 나타내 LHC의 내염해성을 확인하였다. 내화학성 평가 결과, 에폭시 처리 하지 않은 경우 LHC를 적용한 경우, OPC보다 약 18%정도 내화학성이 개선되는 것으로 나타났으며, 콘크리트 표면에 에폭시 공법 적용시 강도보존율이 95% 이상 확보 가능한 것으로 확인되었다.
