  • This paper focuses on the application of Fuller's ideal gradation curve to theoretically design blended ratio of all solid materials of high performance concrete (HPC), with the aid of error function, and then to study the effect of rice husk ash (RHA) on the performance of HPC. The residual RHA, generated when burning rice husk pellets at temperatures varying from 600 to $800^{\circ}C$, was collected at steam boilers in Vietnam. The properties of fresh and hardened concrete are reviewed. It is possible to obtain the RHA concrete with comparable or better properties than those of the specimen without RHA with lower cement consumption. High flowing concrete designed by the proposed method was obtained without bleeding or segregation. The application of the proposed method for HPC can save over 50% of the consumption of cement and limit the use of water. Its strength efficiency of cement in HPC is 1.4-1.9 times higher than that of the traditional method. Local standards of durability were satisfied at the age of 91 days both by concrete resistivity and ultrasonic pulse velocity.

  • Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) is widely used as an effective partial cement replacement material. GGBFS inclusion has already been proven to improve several performance characteristics of concrete. GGBFS provides enhanced durability, including high resistance to chloride penetration and protection against alkali silica reaction. In this paper results of an experimental research work on influence of low-reactivity GGBFS (which is largely available in Iran) on the properties of mortars and concretes are reported. In the first stage, influence of GGBFS replacement level and fineness on the compressive strength of mortars was investigated using Taguchi method. The analysis of mean (ANOM) statistical approach was also adopted to develop the optimal conditions. Next, based on the obtained results, concrete mixtures were designed and water penetration, capillary absorption, surface resistivity, and compressive strength tests were carried out on highstrength concrete specimens at different ages up to 90 days. The results indicated that 7-day compressive strength is adversely affected by GGBFS inclusion, while the negative effect is less evident at later ages. Also, it was inferred that use of low-reactivity GGBFS (at moderate levels such as 20% and 30%) can enhance the impermeability of high-strength concrete since 28 days age.

  • Today, pozzolans are widely used in construction for various reasons such as technical and economic efficiency. In this research, in order to evaluate some of important properties of concrete, silica fume and fly ash have been used as a replacement for cement in different mass percentages. Concrete mixtures were made from a water-cement ratio of (0.45) and cured under similar conditions. The main focus of this study was to evaluate the permeability and mechanical properties of concrete made from binary and ternary cementitious mixtures of fly ash and silica fume. In this study permeability of concrete was studied by evaluating the sorptivity, water absorption, water penetration depth, electrical resistivity and rapid chloride permeability (RCP) tests. Mechanical properties of concrete were evaluated with compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity. Scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the effects of silica fume and fly ash on the pore structure and morphology of concrete with cement based matrix. The results indicated that the incorporation of silica fume and fly ash increased the mechanical strength and improved the permeability of concrete.

  • A zinc mesh sacrificial anode cathodic protection method is recently being developed to protect the reinforced concrete structure in a marine environment. However, comprehensive information regarding the cathodic protection technology applied to reinforced concrete test specimens utilizing zinc mesh sacrificial anodes remains limited. Particularly, no research has investigated the effective range of sacrificial anode cathodic protection in a reinforced concrete structure regarding the transmission of protection current from zinc mesh sacrificial anode to the reinforced concrete structure, particularly concerning effects of temperature variations. This study examined the distribution of potential and current using a long single rebar and several segment reinforcing bars inside a horizontal beam. Vertical pile specimens were applied with a zinc mesh sacrificial anode to simulate concrete bridges or harbor structures. To check the effect of cathodic protection, cathodic protection potential and current of the reinforced concrete specimens were measured and 100 mV depolarization criterion test was performed. It was confirmed that effect of cathodic protection varied depending on resistivity and temperature. The cathodic protection test of pile specimens revealed that the maximum reachable range of cathodic protection current was 10 cm from the waterline as observed in the experiment.

  • 본 연구에서는 주물공정에서 발생되는 폐주물사를 가공처리한 방식사를 지하 전력구 및 전력선용 보호관로 공사의 되메움재료로 사용하는데에 따른 적합성을 분석하고자 물리적, 화학적, 열저항 특성실험을 실시하고 현재 지하 전력 구공사의 되메움재로 사용하고 있는 강모래와 비교 분석하였다. 분석결과, 방식사는 전력구 되메움재로서 물리적 기준에 적합하며, 화학적으로 유해성이 적은 것으로 판단되나, 허용전류 측면에서는 함수비 변화에 따른 열저항율의 변동폭이 커서 강모래에 비해 불리하게 나타났다. 이는 방식사가 전력선용 보호관로의 되메움재로 사용하기에는 부적합하나, 토양의 열저항과 무관한 콘크리트 Box로 차폐된 전력구에서는 되메움재로 사용할 수 있는 가능성을 보여주는 것이다. 향후, 이러한 측면에서 방식사의 활용성을 높이기 위해서는 열저항율에 대한 저감방안 등이 연구되어야 할 것이다.

  • 본 연구에서는 국내에서 생산되고 있는 콘크리트용 순환 굵은골재 및 순환잔골재를 사용하여 콘크리트의 설계기준 강도(21, 35, 50MPa) 및 순환골재의 혼입조건 변화가 콘크리트의 탄산화 거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 실험결과 순환 굵은골재의 혼입률 변화에 따른 콘크리트의 슬럼프는 순환골재를 혼입하지 않은 경우에 비해 동등하거나 양호한 유동성을 나타내는 것으로 나타났으며, 순환 잔골재를 혼입한 경우는 혼입률이 증가함에 따라 슬럼프가 감소되는 결과를 나타냈다. 또한, 순환 굵은골재 및 순환 잔골재의 혼입률이 증가할수록 콘크리트의 압축강도는 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 순환골재 혼입률이 50%를 초과할 경우 급격한 강도 감소 경향을 나타냈다. 그리고 탄산화 깊이는 모든 순환골재 종류에서 혼입률이 증가함에 따라 최대 40%까지 증가하는 결과를 나타냈으며 낮은 강도 수준의 콘크리트 일수록 순환골재 활용에 따른 탄산화 저항성 저하 정도가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 콘크리트의 압축강도가 증가할수록 순환골재 혼입에 따른 영향은 감소되어, 고강도 영역에서는 일반 콘크리트와 유사한 탄산화 특성을 발현하는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 순환골재를 콘크리트용 재료로 대량 활용하기 위해서는 콘크리트의 탄산화 저항성의 개선 위한 혼화재료의 적용 또는 배합설계상 조정을 통한 강도의 개선 등이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

  • CFRD (콘크리트 표면 차수벽형 석괴댐)에서 수행한 전기비저항 탐사 결과, 하부에서 매우 낮은 비저항대가 관측되었다. 일반적으로 CFRD 형식의 댐은 내부 포화가 발생하지 않는 것으로 알려져 있으나, 금번 조사에서 하부 20m 깊이에서 일정하게 저비저항대가 발견되어 이에 대한 검토를 위해 3차원 해석을 수행하였다. 탐사 당시의 수위는 댐 정상부에서 10m 정도 내려가 있는 상태였다. 첫 탐사 이후 6개월이 지난 후에 이루어진 탐사에서도 비슷한 양상을 보이고 있었다. 이에 대한 해석을 위해서 조사 댐의 모양을 대상으로 3차원 순산 모델링을 수행하고, 이에 대한 2차원 역산 해석을 적용하여 기존 해석 방법의 오류 가능성을 검토하였다. 또한 비저항 조사가 많이 적용된 중심코아 형 댐의 경우의 사례와 비교하였다. 해석 결과, 3차원 댐체 구조에 대한 2차원 역산 해석은 저수부의 수위와 밀접한 관련을 갖는 것으로 보이며, 3차원의 사다리꼴 기하구조로 인하여 댐 내부에 비저항의 이상대가 존재할 경우에도 그 민감도가 떨어지는 것으로 분석되었다.

  • To evaluate geology and extent of leachate migration around the landfills, electrical resistivity survey were conducted in area of uncontrolled landfills in Cheonan and Wonju. The Cheonan landfill is located above the paddy fields and the resistivity survey lines were crossed to confirm possible pollution of the paddy fields by leakage of the landfill leachate. In Wonju, the landfill and the downgradient paddy fields are divided by a concrete barrier wall. At the bottom of the landfill, there is a leachate settlement system but has not been in operation. And a total of 4 survey line installed (1 parallel and 3 perpendicular to mean groundwater flow direction). According to the resistivity survey results, the landfill leachate in Cheonan appeared to be restricted only within the interior of the landfill, not to migrate into the subsurface of the paddy fields. These results are well consistent with electrical conductivity values of groundwaters obtained from a periodic analysis of water qualities. In Wonju, however, it was inferred that the leachate emanating from the landfill migrated beneath the abandoned leachate settlement system and it would reach the downgradient paddy field.

  • In this study, polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polyacrylamide (PAM) have been used as self-curing agents to produce self-curing concrete (SC). Compressive strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV), bulk electrical resistivity, chloride ion penetrability, water permeability, and main microstructural characteristics were examined under different curing regimes, and compared to those of the control concrete mixture with no self-curing agents. One batch of a control mixture and one batch of a SC mixture were air-cured in the lab to act as non-water-cured samples. The water curing regimes for the control mixture included continuous water curing for 3, 7, and 28 days and periodical moist curing using wetted burlap for 3 and 7 days. Curing regimes for the SC mixtures included 3 days of water curing and periodical moist curing for 3 and 7 days. SC mixtures showed better microstructure development and durability performance than those of the air-cured control mixture. A short water curing period of 3 days significantly improved the performance of the SC mixtures similar to that of the control mixture that was water cured for 28 days. SC concrete represents a step towards sustainable construction due to its lower water demand needed for curing and hence can preserve the limited water resources in many parts of the world.
