Experimental study on Properties of Dry Shrinkage Deformation of Floor Dry-mortar with Alpha-hemihydrate Gypsum

알파반수석고를 활용한 바닥용 건조 모르타르의 수축변형 특성에 관한 실험적 연구

In general, the shrinkage occurring in the floor mortar is large the influence by the dry shrinkage. In order to reduce the cracks occurring in the floor mortar, studies of physical methods are often performed, but these methods is difficult to prevent cracking of the floor mortar essentially. Therefore, in this study, the dry shrinkage properties of floor mortar of gypsum and red clay type using alpha-hemihydrate gypsum had been evaluated. The experimental variables were cement mortar(CM), gypsum mortar(GM), red-clay mortar(RM), the evaluation items was conducted experiment to evaluate the setting time, the compressive strength, drying shrinkage cracks, the dry shrinkage. As a result, it was confirmed that condensation time of GM is shorter that that of CM, and GM satisfied the compressive strength of the floor mortar standard. Also shrinkage deformation of GM reduced more than the CM.
