Abstract

In this study, to analyze the correlation of surface chloride and corrosion amount level according to the installation location of steel members exposed to the marine environment, the surface chloride and mean corrosion depth were evaluated by member units for box girder members of the offshore steel bridge and box specimens. The surface chloride was measured monthly using the Bresle method for one year. The corrosion amount was evaluated by converting the weight loss due to corrosion products generated in the monitoring steel plate into mean corrosion depth. As a measurement result of the surface chloride and corrosion amount, relative differences in surface chloride and mean corrosion depth were appeared depending on the shape or installation location of the steel members. Moreover, even if members of the same shape were installed in the same bridge, it was confirmed that the corrosion amount was increased locally and rapidly. The tendency of corrosion amount depending on the surface chloride was evaluated to analyze the correlation between surface chloride and corrosion amount, and the relation equations that can asseses the corrosion amount depending on the surface chloride were analyzed. From the results of the correlation between surface chloride and corrosion amount, it was found that the corrosion amount of the steel member affected by the surface chloride was varied up to about 1.15 times depending on the structural detail.

본 연구에서는 해양환경에 노출된 강부재의 표면염분과 부식량의 상관관계를 분석하기 위하여 해상강교량의 보강형 거더 부재와 강박스 실험체를 대상으로 표면염분량과 평균부식두께를 부재단위로 평가하였다. 표면염분은 월단위로 1년간 Bresle method를 활용하여 계측하였고, 부식량은 실험용 모니터링 강판에 발생한 부식생성물로 인한 중량감소량을 평균부식두께으로 환산하여 분석하였다. 표면염분과 부식량을 계측한 결과, 강부재의 형상이나 설치위치에 따라 상대적인 표면염분량과 평균부식두께의 차이가 나타났으며, 동일한 교량 내에 설치된 동일한 형상의 부재라도 부식량이 국부적으로 급격히 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 표면염분과 부식량의 상관관계를 분석하기 위하여 표면염분에 따른 부식량 발생 경향을 평가하였으며, 부식량을 평가할 수 있는 평가식을 부재의 형상별로 분석하였다. 표면염분과 부식량의 상관관계 분석 결과, 표면염분의 영향으로 강부재에서 발생하는 부식량은 부재의 형상에 따라 약 1.15배까지 변화하는 것으로 나타났다.
