Abstract

A large amount of fine dust is generated during the process of pavement cutting. Consequently, reducing the amount of fine dust generated during pavement cutting is crucial for the overall management of fine dust. Based on this premise, in this study, a conceptual model is proposed for a device that can be employed for recovering scattered dust generated at the site of pavement cutting. The economic feasibility associated with the incorporation of the proposed model was analyzed. Results obtained from the economic feasibility analysis of the proposed conceptual model indicate that the benefit ratio is 2.96, which is significantly higher than 1. The rate of return is found to be 62.78%, which significantly exceeds the minimum expected rate of return (i.e., 10%), as established on the basis of interviews conducted with companies that implement pavement cutting. Furthermore, the break-even point is found to be at approximately 21.6 months. Hence, the proposed pavement cutter, which features dust suction and a low noise level, is economically feasible.

도로포장 절단 작업에서 미세먼지를 많이 발생시키고 있어, 이 작업에서 미세먼지 발생량을 줄이는 것이 전체 미세먼지 관리에 매우 중요하다. 이러한 점에 착안하여, 본 연구에서는 도로절단 현장에서 발생하는 비산먼지를 회수하는 장치의 개념설계를 제안하고, 이의 도입에 대한 경제적 타당성을 분석하였다. 제안된 개념모델의 경제성을 분석한 결과, 편익비율이 2.96으로 1을 크게 상회하였다. 그리고 수익률은 62.78%로 도로포장 절단 실무자 면담을 통해 설정한 최소기대수익률 10%를 크게 상회하였으며, 손익분기점은 약 21.6개월로 분석되었다. 따라서 제안된 저소음·분진회수형 도로절단 장비의 경제적 타당성은 충분할 것으로 예상된다.
