수용성 방부처리(AAC, CCA-3, ACQ, CuAz) 소나무 시편의 기상열화에 대한 저항성을 평가하기 위하여 인공촉진열화 방법을 사용하였다. 기상열화에 의한 재색 및 중량변화, 물리적 표면열화, 목재조직의 변화를 종합적으로 고려할 때, AAC 처리시편을 제외한 ACQ, CCA, CuAz 처리시편은 기상열화에 대한 저항성이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 몇몇 방부처리재가 기상열화에 대하여 저항성을 나타내는 요인탐색을 위해 기상열화 산물을 분석하였는데, 그 결과, ACQ, CCA, CuAz 처리시편에서는 낮은 리그닌 함량이 측정되어 기상열화 저항성을 가지는 처리시편은 리그닌 열화가 적게 일어남을 나타냈다. 이는 방부제 유효성분이 목재 주성분 중 기상열화에 민감한 리그닌 구조에 정착함으로써 리그닌 열화에 대한 저항성이 발현되었기 때문으로 판단된다.

The main objective of this study is to suggest a new assessment method of the influence of weathering due to salt crystallization on the engineering property of rock. For this purpose, various sources of salt and salt crystallization were investigated, and artificially accelerated weathering tests were carried out. In natural envionment, weathering rate is very slow and weathering process involves complex mechanisms. Therefore artificial weathering test is essential for systematic analysis. Arificial weathering test is defined as test which controls weathering rate and agents by controlling arificial environmental condition. In this study, salt crystallization test was selected among various artificial weathering test methods, for its important role in weathering. Change of various stone properties were detexted. The change of physical properties by salt crystallization were observed as follows : 72% in Brazilian tensile strength and 72% in Slake durability. These results explain the importance of salt crystallization in the mechanical behaviour and properties of stone.

The glacial tills and shales in Midwestern states of the USA often show strength degradation after construction. They are often in need of applying soil modification techniques to remediate their strength degradation with weathering process. This study investigated the weathering durability of these natural soils and biopolymer treated soils by comparing direct shear test results for wet-dry and wet-freeze-thaw-dry cycled specimens. The tests showed that untreated glacial tills maintained only 62% and 50% initial shear strength after eight wet-dry cycles and eight wet-freeze-thaw-dry cycles, respectively. These untreated soils could not withstand by themselves after 16 weathering cycles. The same soils treated with 1.5% (by dry weight) food-grade Xanthan gum maintained 140% and 88% initial shear strength of untreated soils after 16 weathering cycles for wet-dry cycles and wet-freeze-thaw-dry cycles, respectively. The same soils treated with 1.5% (by dry weight) Gellan gum maintained 82% and 60% initial shear strength of untreated ones after 16 weathering cycles, respectively. Similar results were obtained for crushed shales, manifesting that the biopolymerization method may be adopted as a new eco-friendly method to enhance the weathering durability of these problematic soils of glacial tills and shales.

Physical weathering caused by external forces and chemical weathering caused by the decomposition or alteration of constituent materials are the two factors that dominate the mechanical properties of rocks. In this study, a field investigation was undertaken to identify the physical and chemical weathering characteristics of the biotite granite and granitic weathered soils in Gyeongju, South Korea. Samples were collected according to their grade of weathering and subjected to modal analysis, XRD analysis, XRF analysis, physical property tests, particle size distribution tests, and slake durability tests. Modal and XRD analysis identified these rocks as biotite granite; secondary alteration minerals were not observed. Physical property tests and particle size distribution analyses indicate an average porosity of 41.28% and a sand content of > 90 wt.%. These values are somewhat higher than those of granites in general. The results of the slake durability test and XRF analyses show that the physical and chemical weathering indices of the samples vary with the degree of weathering.

Stone cultural heritages in Korea have a severe damages from chemical and biological weathering because most of them have been situated in outdoors without any suitable protection systems, and this in turn causes deformation and structural damage. To counteract these problems and increase durability, various kinds of conservation materials are used in the conservation and restoration treatments. However until now there are not many practical and technological experiments on this subject. This paper attempts quantitative evaluation of effectiveness about chemical of ethylsilicate based resin for sandstone in Yeongyang-gun. It takes a long time to evaluate durability and side effect after conservation materials treatment. So we use artificial weathering through freezing§ thawing experimental method. As a result of this experiment, porosity and absorptance increased, and elastic wave speed, elastic modules, unconfined compression strength and tensile strength decreased more than before. This study plans to make a scientific method study about weathering factor and mechanism, and to deduce correlation between artificial weathering and natural weathering.

Because stone cultural heritages in Korea are mostly situated outdoors without any notable protection, there are severe damages from physical, chemical and biological weathering. And this in turn causes deformation and structural damage. To counteract this problem and increase durability, various kinds of conservation materials are used in the conservation and restoration treatment. However, there are not many practical and technological experiments on this subject. Accordingly this research is for analysis of effect for treatment to make use a resin of the ethyl silicate for the granite in Mt. Nam of Gyeongju. It takes a long time to confirm the test result regarding durability and side effects of the conservatives after treatment. So we built up an artificial environment through freezing and melting test, and evaluated the conservation materials. As a result of this experiment, porosity and absorptivity was increased in accordance with processing of freezing and melting test. But other things such as elastic wave speed, elastic modulus, uniaxial compressive strength and tensile strength was decreased. It will make a plan to form a method of research systematically for mechanism and element of weathering and to elicit a correlation among experiment of artificial weathering and practical natural weathering from next research.

Some well-known artificial weathering tests such as freezing-thawing, acid immersion, and salt crystallization are adopted to examine the change of rock properties during the processes of artificial weathering. Granites and other rock types of limestone, marble and basalt collected from different quarries in south Korea were sampled for this study. All tests were performed up to 30 cycles and physical properties were measured after experiencing every ten cycles of artificial weathering tests. During the tests, the variation trends of rock properties were too variable to draw generalized variation patterns but it can be concluded that weathering agents have different effect on rock properties depending on weathering circumstance and time. Even in short terms of salt crystallization tests, some rocks were severely deformed and then burst, and in the early stages of salt weathering, recrystallized salts filling pores and cracks in rocks could be a important factor affecting rock properties.

본 연구는 변성 및 단층의 영향을 받은 운모편암의 풍화 특성에 관한 고찰로 여러 실내 실험을 통하여 운모편암의 풍화 특성을 규명하였다. 물리적-화학적 풍화현상을 모사한 동결-융해실험은 운모편암에 발달한 엽리면의 영향으로 일축압축강도의 저하가 풍화상태에 따라 $20{\sim}40%$ 발생함을 보여주고 있다. 서로 다른 풍화등급의 가진 시료에 대하여 슬레이킹 내구성 실험을 실시한 결과 단층파쇄대 부근의 심한 풍화상태의 시료의 내구성 지수가 상대적으로 신선한 시료보다 낮음을 볼 수 있었다. 슬레이킹 실험 전후의 시료에 대한 XRD 분석을 통하여 건습에 의해 녹니석과 같은 점토광물이 용탈되는 광물의 동적변화 양상을 알아보았다. 시간에 따른 운모편암의 거동은 크릴시험을 통하여 알아보았는데 이 역시 암석내에 발달한 엽리면에서의 거동이 주요한 변형 원인으로 나타났다. 불연속면의 전단특성은 불연속면에 충진되어 있는 점토광물의 영향을 많이 받고 있으며 최대전단강도와 잔류전단강도의 차이가 크게 발생함을 볼수 있었다. 이러한 실내실험들은 운모편암의 공학적 특성은 엽리면 혹은 불연속면의 거동에 많은 영향을 받을 것이라는 것을 보여주고 있다.

풍화암은 일반적으로 6단계로 분류된다. 본 연구에서는 풍화도에 따라 등급 I에서 등급 V의 암석 블록을 장수지역에서 채취하였다. 등급 VI는 본 연구대상에서 제외되었다. 풍화도의 증가에 따른 화학적 풍화지수의 변화량은 물리적, 역학적 물성변화에 비하여 매우 미소한 변화를 보였으며, 풍화도의 증가는 강도, 경도, 탄성파속도, 내구성과 같은 물리적 역학적 물성에 의하여 잘 지시되었다. 특히 흡수율과 공극률은 매우 좋은 지수이다. 풍화의 진행에 따라, 암석에 포함되어 있는 크랙의 양은 암석의 변형에 영향을 끼친다. 그러므로 풍화암의 응력변형률 곡선은 신선한 암과 상당한 차이를 보였다.

Water repellent preservative (WRP) treated and untreated, small-sized specimens prepared from semiwater resistant, water resistant, and tegofilm-overlaid plywood were exposed to outdoor weathering for one year. Exterior durability of specimens was evaluated on the basis of changes in dynamic modulus of elasticity, degree of delamination, modulus of elasticity, modulus of rupture, and glueline shear strength. Among untreated specimens, tegofilm-overlaid plywood showed the best outdoor durability, and durability between semiwater resistant and water resistant plywood was similar. Although WRP treatment increased the durability of all types of plywoods, the effect of treatment on the increase in durability for semi water resistant plywood was not distinct. Accordingly, it can be concluded that semi water resistant plywood, which is used for temporary construction such as concrete formwork in our country, can not be inadequate for exterior use, regardless of WRP treatment. The bending strength and glueline shear strength of untreated water resistant plywood measured after weathering for one year did not exceed the minimum value specified by Korean Standard (KS), thereby the outdoor use of water resistant plywood was not desirable without WRP treatment. Exterior durability between treated water resistant plywood and untreated tegofilm-overlaid plywood was very similar. This result suggests that if an exposed plywood surface is treated with WRP regularly water resistant plywood can be used for temporary construction. This suggestion, however, needs to be investigated. In summary, semiwater resistant plywood cannot be used for temporay construction regardless of WRP treatment. Water resistant plywood can be used only with WRP treatment. Comparing the cost of tegofilm-overlaid plywood to costs of water resistant plywood and WRP treatment, however, it can be concluded that use of tegofilm-overlaid plywood for temporay constrution is strongly suggested from the point of view of both outdoor durability and costs.
