A controlled low strength material (CLSM) is a highly flowable cementitious material used for trench backfilling. However, when applying vertical loads to backfilled trenches, shear failure or differential settlement may occur at the interface between the CLSM and natural soil. Hence, this study aims to evaluate the characteristics of the interface friction between the CLSM and soils based on curing time, gradation, and normal stress. The CLSM is composed of fly ash, calcium sulfoaluminate cement, sand, silt, water, and an accelerator. To investigate the engineering properties of the CLSM, flow and unconfined compressive strength tests are carried out. Poorly graded and well-graded sands are selected as the in-situ soil adjacent to the CLSM. The direct shear tests of the CLSM and soils are carried out under three normal stresses for four different curing times. The test results show that the shear strengths obtained within 1 day are higher than those obtained after 1 day. As the curing time increases, the maximum dilation of the poorly graded sand-CLSM specimens under lower normal stresses also generally increases. The maximum contraction increases with increasing normal stress, but it decreases with increasing curing time. The shear strengths of the well-graded sand-CLSM interface are greater than those of the poorly graded sand-CLSM interface. Moreover, the friction angle for the CLSM-soil interface decreases with increasing curing time, and the friction angles of the well-graded sand-CLSM interface are greater than those of the poorly graded sand-CLSM interface. The results suggest that the CLSM may be effectively used for trench backfilling owing to a better understanding of the interface shear strength and behavior between the CLSM and soils.

본 연구에서는 IGCC(Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle; 석탄 가스화 복합 발전)에서 배출된 용융 슬래그(이하 용융 슬래그)를 이용한 지오폴리머의 제조 시 pre-curing 공정이 지오폴리머의 물성에 미치는 영향에 대해 연구하였다. Pre-curing이란 고온양생으로 지오폴리머를 제조하기 전에, 성형체를 상온에서 일정 시간 방치하는 공정으로서, 시편의 강도를 높이는 효과가 있다고 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 pre-curing 조건에 따른 지오폴리머의 압축강도 특성을 측정하였으며, SEM과 XRD로 미세구조 및 결정상 변화를 관찰하였다. W/S 비율(water/solid ratio)은 사전 실험을 통해, 성형이 가능하면서 최대 지오폴리머 강도를 확보할 수 있는 0.26으로 결정하였으며, 자극제인 알칼리 용액의 농도는 15 M로 고정하였다. 상온에서 pre-curing을 0~27일 범위 내에서 실시한 결과, pre-curing 공정을 적용한 지오폴리머의 경우, 그렇지 않은 시편에 비해 압축강도가 36~87 % 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. Pre-curing 시킨 시편에서 XRD 측정 결과, C-S-H 겔(calcium silicate hydroxide gel) 상 발현이 촉진되었고 SEM을 이용한 미세구조 관찰 결과, 부정형의 zeolite 상이 더 많이 성장된 것이 관찰되었으며 이러한 상들의 생성이 강도 증진에 영향을 미친 것으로 분석되었다.

Silica fume is a common addition to high performance concrete mix designs. The use of silica fume in concrete leads to increased water demand. For this reason, Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) allows only a 72-hour continuous moist cure process for concrete containing silica fume. Accelerated curing has been shown to be effective in producing high-performance characteristics at early ages in silica-fume concrete. However, the heat greatly increases the moisture loss from exposed surfaces, which may cause shrinkage problems. An experimental study was undertaken to determine the feasibility of steam curing of FDOT concrete with silica fume in order to reduce precast turnaround time. Various steam curing durations were utilized with full-scale precast prestressed pile specimens. The concrete compressive strength and shrinkage were determined for various durations of steam curing. Results indicate that steam cured silica fume concrete met all FDOT requirements for the 12, 18 and 24 hours of curing periods. No shrinkage cracking was observed in any samples up to one year age. It was recommended that FDOT allow the 12 hour steam curing for concrete with silica fume.

Electro-micromechanical 시험법을 이용하여 탄소 섬유 강화 열경화성 수지 복합재료의 경화 방법에 따른 계면 평가와 손상 감지능 및 경화 모니터링에 대해 고찰하였다. 경화 후 잔류 응력은 전기 저항 측정을 통해 모니터링 하였으며, 경화 방법에 따라 상호 비교하였다. 기지 재료의 인장 강도, 탄성률 및 계면 전단 강도는 열 경화의 경우가 자외선 경화보다 더 크게 나타났으며, 열 경화에서 경화 수축은 열팽창 계수 차이에 의한 잔류 응력 및 기지 재료의 수축에 의해 자외선 경화와 비교하여 더 크게 나타났다. 열 경화 시의 경화 중 전기 저항은 자외선 경화보다 더 큰 범위에서 변하였으며, 기지 재료의 기계적 물성과 계면 접착력에 의해 다르게 나타나는 겉보기 탄성률 또한 더 컸고, 같은 응력까지 더 빠르게 도달하였다.

Interfacial evaluation, damage sensing and cure monitoring of single carbon fiber/thermosetting composite with different curing processes was investigated using electro-micromechanical test. After curing, residual stress was monitored by measurement of electrical resistance (ER) and then it was compared to correlate with various curing processes. In thermal curing, curing shrinkage appeared significantly by matrix shrinkage and residual stress due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficient (TEC). The change in electrical resistance (ΔR) on thermal curing was higher than that on ultraviolet (UV) curing. For thermal curing, apparent modulus was the highest and reaching time until same strain was faster. So far thermal curing shows strong durability on the IFSS after boiling test.

The present study investigated the effect of the combined carbonation and steam curing on the physicochemical properties and CO₂ uptake of the Portland cement concrete. Four different curing regimes were adopted during the initial 10 h of curing to evaluate the potential of carbonation curing as an alternative to conventional steam curing in the precast concrete industry from environmental and practical viewpoints. Four combinations of carbonation and steam curing conditions were applied as curing regimes to the samples at an early age. The test results indicated that the samples treated with the combined carbonation and steam curing exhibited higher early strength development compared to the other samples, signifying that carbonation curing can reduce the production time of precast concrete. Furthermore, the CO₂ uptake capacity of the samples was calculated and found to be as high as 18% with respect to the mass of the paste samples. Hence, the simultaneous utilization of steam and CO₂ for the fabrication of precast concrete members has the potential to make precast concrete greener and more cost-effective.

In multi-material injection molding, since two or more materials with different process conditions are used, it is essential to maximize process efficiency by operating the cooling or heating system to a minimum. In this study, Liquid silicone rubber (LSR) that can be cured at a low temperature suitable for the multi-material injection molding was selected and the cure behavior according to the process conditions was analyzed through differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Dynamic measurement results of DSC with different heating rate were obtained, and through this, the total heat of reaction when the LSR was completely cured was calculated. Isothermal measurement results of DSC were derived for 60 minutes at each temperature from 80 ℃ to 110 ℃ at 10 ℃ intervals, and the final degree of cure at each temperature was calculated based on the total heat of reaction identified from the Dynamic DSC measurement results. As the result, it was found that when the temperature is lowered, the curing start time and the time required for the curing reaction increase, but at a temperature of 90 ℃ or higher, LSR can secure a degree of cure of 80% or more. However, at 80 ℃., it was found that not only had a relatively low degree of curing of about 60%, but also significantly increased the curing start time. In addition, in the case of 110 ℃, the parameters were derived from experimental result using the Kamal kinetic model.

백화는 시멘트 콘크리트의 표면에 흰 가루 물질이 생성되는 것으로 이 현상은 지오폴리머에서도 나타난다. 지오폴리머의 백화는 알칼리 자극제의 나트륨과 대기 중 이산화탄소가 반응하여 나트륨 탄산염 물질이 지오폴리머 표면에 나타나 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 비산재 기반 지오폴리머의 Na/Al 비를 조절하거나 양생온도와 가열 양생 기간을 변화시켰을 때 2차 백화를 억제할 수 있는지 검토하였다. 지오폴리머의 28일 압축강도는 Na/Al 비가 0.8인 시료보다 Na/Al 비가 1.0인 시료에서 높게 나타났으며, 양생온도가 높고 가열 양생 기간이 길수록 강도는 높게 나타났다. 한편 백화는 Na/Al 비가 1.0인 시료의 경우 양생온도가 높고 가열 양생 기간이 길수록 적게 나타났다. Na/Al 비가 0.8인 시료에서는 Na/Al 비가 1.0인 시료에서 보다 백화가 더 빠르게 나타났다. 비산재 기반 지오폴리머의 2차 백화 발생을 억제하기 위해서는 Na/Al 비를 1.0으로 유지하는 것과 양생온도를 높이고 가열 양생 시간을 길게 하는 것이 유리할 것으로 생각된다.

Ormocer has organic-inorganic compound polymers. One of advantages of ormocer is reduced polymerization shrinkage. The purpose of this study was to compare the amount of contraction shrinkage of composite resins and ormocers. Additionally, the time of each material when there is no further change of contraction shrinkage was analysed. Four brands of composite resins (P-60. Surefil, Z-250 and Denfil) and two brands of ormocers (Definite and Admira) were used. 20 seconds, 40 seconds and 60 seconds of curing times were given. Contraction shrinkage of them were measured using a linometer for 80 seconds. The effect of material and curing time to contraction shrinkage at the time of 80 seconds was analysed by two-way ANOVA. The effect of time to contraction shrinkage was analysed by one-way ANOVA and the time when there was no further change of the contraction shrinkage was analysed. The results are as follows: 1. P-60, Definite, Z-250 and Denfil had no further change of contraction shrinkage from the time of 20 seconds, and Surefil and Admira had no further change of contraction shrinkage from the time of 10 seconds. 2. Statistical analysis revealed volumetric shrinkage varied among material (p<0,05). No significant difference of contraction shrinkage among different curing times was found, and there was no effect of interaction between materials and curing times to contraction shrinkage. 3. Definite and Admira showed the statistically same contraction shrinkage with those of Z-250 and P-60. which is higher than that of Surefil and lower than that of Denfil (p<0.05).
