Very-early strength latex-modified concrete(below ; VES-LMC) was developed for possible early-opening-to-traffic after overlay of bridge deck concrete. The purpose of this study is to analyze the cause of map, transverse and longitudinal cracking in VES-LMC and to provide a control method for minimizing occurrence of cracking. The proposed prevention method against map and transverse cracking was verified by field data. VES cement was modified as the unit cement content was reduced from 390kg/$m^3$ to 360kg/$m^3$. The maximum size of coarse aggregate was increased from 13mm to 19mm. The wire mesh and steel fiber were adopted in concrete mixture. From the results, the proposed prevention method against map and transverse cracking was verified since structural cracking was not occurred until 3 years after overlay.

차량의 통행이 빈번한 기존 아스팔트 도로는 연속적인 차량의 하중에 의한 스트레스로 하중을 받을 때마다 아스팔트도로 층의 강도와 안정성이 떨어지면서 균열이 발생하고 이 균열이 아스팔트 도로 상층부까지 전달되는 반사균열이 발생한고, 열팽창과 수축의 반복에 기인하는 상부의 아스팔트 층의 피로에 의한 균열이 발생한다. 따라서 아스팔트 도로의 반사균열을 억제하고, 아스팔트의 소성변형에 의한 rutting현상을 억제하여 아스팔트의 도로보수 주기를 연장하여 도로상에서의 잦은 보수에 의한 자동차의 정체현상을 줄이고 도로유지에 소요되는 비용을 절감하기 위해서 아스팔트 도로를 설치할 때 아스팔트를 보강시켜주는 geogrid의 사용이 보편화 되고 있다.

원자력 발전소 주요 부품에 사용되는 Alloy 600의 PWSCC 개시와 전파기구를 살펴보고 그 억제 기술을 소개하였다. ○ 균열은 경화된 표면 산화층이 깨질 경우, 입계부식, 공식(pitting), 열처리 또는 물속에 노출되었을 때 일어나는 선택부식(selective corrosion), MnS등 게재물의 용출등에 의해 시작된다. ○ 균열의 전파는 '느린 성장'과 '빠른 성장'으로 구별해 볼 수 있는데 빠른 균열성장은 균열 선단에서의 응력확대 계수(K_I)가 균열이 전파하는 임계값(K_Iscc)을 넘는 경우에 일어난다. ○ Slip Dissolution/Film Rupture Model, Enhanced surface mobility model, Hydrogen assisted creep rupture, Internal oxidation 등의 모델이 제시되어 있으며 Internal oxidation 모델이 여러 실험자료로 잘 뒷 받침되고 있다. ○ PWSCC 억제 방안으로는 부식환경과의 격리 및 보수용접이 대표적이며 부품의 교체를 통한 안전 확보의 방안도 있다. 수소량 조절을 통한 억제 방안도 제시되어 있다. ○ Alloy 600 PWSCC열화 관리 전략프로그램은 결함 발생 가능성이 높은 부위 선정, 우선 순위에 따른 계획적인 검사, 결함이 발견될 경우 완화조치를 취하거나 필요시 교체/보수를 실시하고 그 운영프로그램을 지속적으로 갱신관리하는 방안으로 유지되어야 한다.

Asphalt overlay method is a general method to extend the of life old concrete pavements. However, reflection cracks are the typical problem of the AC overlay on distressed concrete pavement. Joint sealing, stress absorbtion layer have been used to prevent reflection cracks however partial success of to delay the timing of reflection cracking was recognized. Reflection crack problem can be eliminated by using rubblization method, which crush concrete pavement slab into piece of aggregate size that can be used base material. Previous research on rubblization method indicated that the size of rubblized PCC ranged 40-70mm at upper layer, and more than 100mm at lower layer. In this study, the adequate depth of rubblized PCC that ran prevent reflection cracking of AC overlay is estimated base on the simulation test of reflection cracking with 0, 10, 20cm rubblized PCC base.

In this study, prevention methods of radial cracks generated inside of artificial lightweight aggregate made of reject ash and dredged soil were investigated. The reject ash and dredged soil had mixed with weight ratio of 7 : 3 and formed to spheric shape of 5~20 mm diameter, then, the aggregates were manufactured using flash sintering method at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 10 min. The formation of radial cracks in the aggregates were suppressed as the size of specimen decreased. Also, the addition of silica to aggregates had prevented generation of the radial cracks. As the size and the amount of silica powder added increased, the development of radial cracks was constrained. Therefore the artificial lightweight aggregate manufactured in this study expected to be applicable to many fields such as construction and environmental usages. Also it is expected to contribute greatly to increase the recycling rate of reject ash and dredged soil.

An increase in the amount of cracking in repaired concrete bridge decks using VES-LMC(Very Early Strength - Latex Modified Concrete ; below VES-LMC) has been noticed by Yun et al(1). Literature indicates that indeed many concrete bridge decks develop transverse cracking, most developing at early ages(3~7 days), many right after construction. The purpose of this study was to establish prevention of map, transverse and longitudinal cracking in VES-LMC and to provide a control methods for minimizing the occurrence of cracks. The proposed prevention against map and transverse cracking was verified by field applications. VES cement was modified, the unit cement contents was reduced into $360kg/m^3$ from $390kg/m^3$, the maximum size of coarse aggregate was increase into 19mm from 13mm, wire mesh and steel fibers were incorporated in concrete mixture. A series of variable combinations were attempted. As a results, the proposed prevention against map and transverse cracking was verified because no crack were occurred until 90 days after overlay.

현재 서울을 비롯한 5대 광역시에 지하철이 계획, 시공되고 있다. 이와 같은 지하철은 많은 사람들이 이용하는 대중교통 수단이므로 설계 시 작용하는 하중조건을 모두 고려하여 설계를 하고 있지만 Box형으로 시공된 지하철 구조물의 본선 및 정거장에 대해 점검한 보고서를 참고하면 본선보다는 정거장에서 많은 균열이 발생되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Box형으로 시공된 정거장 구조물에 대하여 균열이 발생된 형태와 원인을 연구하여 추후 시공하고자 하는 정거장구조물에 대해 균열발생 억제방안을 도출하고자 한다. (중략)

매스 콘크리트 구조물에서는 콘크리트 타설 후 시멘트의 수화열로 인한 온도응력에 의해서 온도균열의 발생 가능성이 매우 높다. 따라서, 매스 콘크리트 시공시, 온도균열을 구조물의 내구성 관점에서 최대한 억제시킬 필요가 있다. 최근에는 국내에서도 단위시멘트량이 많은 배합을 이용하는 고강도 콘크리트 구조물의 시공이 증가되고 있다. 이와 같은 매스 콘크리트 구조물은 단위시멘트량이 많기 때문에 부재내 수화열에 의한 온도의 상승 속도가 빠르기 때문에 시공에 앞서 사전에 설계, 재료 및 시공 측면에서 온도균열 제어 대책을 검토할 필요가 있다.(중략)

The aim of this study is to qualitatively evaluate the cracking control effects of expansive concrete used in reinforced concrete building. The result of experiments in laboratory shows that autogenous shrinkage and drying shrinkage are suppressed by using expansive additive. The tensile stress-strength ratio is lower in expansive concrete than normal concrete under fully restrained condition. Compression stress could be effectively generated in early age in the walls in buildings by the use of expansive additive, and tensile stress due to drying shrinkage at later age eventually decreased. Additionally, visual observation at long-term ages shows that the cracking area of expansive concrete was approximately 35% of normal concrete, which confirms that the use of expansive additive reduces concrete cracking in reinforced concrete buildings.

The recent expansion in the number of housing construction projects has been accompanied by substantial improvements in construction quality, which can be attributed to the development of new construction technologies and materials. In apartment complex construction projects, numerous mechanization technologies have been adopted as part of the floor plastering process to counter increasing difficulties in securing labor and the pressing need to reduce lead time, but these have also triggered setbacks such as additional costs or loss of time to fix cracks in or loosening of floor. Cracks developing in the floor of an apartment housing unit, in terms of materials in use, are the products of a complex combination of material makeup, construction workmanship, concrete curing and the protection method. Controlling such elements from the perspective of materials in use may ensure partial success in reducing cracks, but fall short of eliminating them completely. Any attempt to prevent cracks from developing in the first place requires systematic analysis as to their potential causes and viable solutions to reduce them. On this backdrop, this paper aims to provide an analysis of potential causes of cracks found in floor plastering, and consider the mechanism of a crack stop-bar as a fundamental safeguard against them.
