Abstract

In this study, an experimental study on the tensile properties of steel fiber-reinforced ultra high strength concrete(UHSC) with a standard compressive strength of 180MPa was performed. Steel fibers with a volume ratio of 1% were mixed to prepare direct tensile strength specimens and prism specimens for the three-point bending test. The fabricated specimens were set up in the middle section of the specimen to induce cracks, and the test was carried out according to each evaluation method. First, the stress-strain curves were analyzed by performing direct tensile strength tests to investigate the behavior characteristics of concrete after cracking. In addition, the load-CMOD curve was obtained through the three-point bending test, and the inverse analysis was performed to evaluate the stress-strain curve. Tensile behavior characteristics of the direct tensile test and the three-point bending test of the indirect test were similar. In addition, the tensile stress-strain curve modeling presented in the SC structural design guidelines was performed, and the comparative analysis of the measured and predicted values was performed. When the material reduction factor of 1.0 was applied, the predicted value was similar to the measured value up to the strain of 0.02, but when the material reduction factor of 0.8 was applied, the predicted value was close to the lower limit of the measured value. In addition, when the strain was greater than 0.02, the predicted value by SC structural design guideline to underestimated the measured value.

본 연구에서는 기준압축강도 180MPa의 강섬유 보강 초고강도 콘크리트(UHSC)의 인장 특성에 관한 실험 연구를 수행하였다. 부피비 1%의 강섬유를 혼입하여 직접인장강도 시편과 3점 하중재하 휨 실험을 위한 프리즘 시편을 제작하였다. 제작된 시편은 균열 유도를 위하여 시편 중앙에 노치를 설정하였으며, 각 평가방법에 따라 실험을 수행하였다. 우선, 콘크리트의 균열 후 거동 특성을 파악하기 위하여 직접인장강도 실험을 수행하여 응력-변형률 곡선을 분석하였으며, 3점 하중재하 휨 실험을 통하여 하중-CMOD 곡선을 얻고, 역해석을 수행하여 응력-변형률 곡선을 분석하였다. 직접인장강도 실험과 3점 하중재하 휨 실험의 인장거동 특성은 유사하게 나타났다. 또한, SC 구조설계지침에서 제시하고 있는 인장응력-변형률 곡선 모델링을 수행하고, 측정값과 예측값의 비교분석을 수행하였다. 재료감소계수가 1.0일 때, 변형률이 0.02일 때까지 예측값은 측정값과 유사하게 나타나지만, 재료감소계수가 0.8일 때, 예측값은 측정값의 최소값에 근접한다. 또한, 변형률이 0.02를 초과하는 구간에서는 SC 구조설계지침에 의한 예측값이 측정값을 과소평가한다.
