Volume Change Caused from the Moisture Change in the Limestone Material Pressured under High Temperature

고온을 받은 석회암 골재의 습도경시변화에 따른 체적거동

This study investigated about how much the limestone's volume was changed as time passed while maintaining a certain level of moisture condition in the limestone material for concrete under high temperature. The result is summarized as follows: It was appeared that the limestone material under high temperature emitted some CO₂ resulting from the decarboxylation, so that as the heating temperature was increased, the limestone's length change rate was decreased. In the leave time change after heating the stone, the both conditions of 50% and 100% made the limestone create Ca(OH)₂ using some H₂O. So it was appeared that as time passed, the limestone's length change rate first increased because of its volume expansion, but the rate was reduced after the limestone material was crumbled.
