Abstract

The corrosion of steel reinforcing bar(re-bar) has been the major cause of the reinforced concrete deterioration. FRP(Fiber-reinforced polymer) reinforcing bar has emerged as one of the most promising and affordable solutions to the corrosion problems of steel reinforcement in structural concrete. However, FRP re-bar is pone to deteriorate due to other degradation mechanisms than those for steel. The high alkalinity of concrete, for instance, is a possible degradation source. Other potentially FRP re-bar aggressive environments are sea water, acid solution and fresh water/moisture. In this study long-term durability performance of FRP re-bar were evaluated. The mechanical and durability properties of two type of CFRP-, GFRP re-bar and one type of AFRP re-bar were investigated; the FRP re-bars were subjected to alkaline solution acid solution, salt solution and deionized water. The mechanical and durability properties were investigated by performing tensile, compressive and short beam tests. Experimental results confirmed the desirable resistance of FRP re-bar to aggressive chemical environment.

철근의 부식은 철근콘크리트 구조물의 주요파괴 원인이다. 철근의 부식에 대한 문제점을 해결할 가능성이 있는 재료 중 FRP 보강근은 그 가능성이 높다. 그렇지만 FRP 보강근은 보강철근과 다른 파괴 매카니즘으로 의하여 현저하게 성능이 저하될 가능성을 가지고 있다. 이와 같은 환경에는 알칼리, 산, 염해 및 물과 수분 등이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 FRP 보강근의 화학적 환경하에서의 내구성능을 평가하고자 하였으며 사용된 FRP 보강근은 2가지 종류의 CFRP 보강근 및 GFRP 보강근, 한가지 종류의 AFRP 보강근으로 알칼리용액, 산용액, 염해환경 및 중성용액에 노출시켰다. FRP 보강근의 역학적 특성 및 내구특성은 인장, 압축 및 전단시험을 통하여 평가하였으며 시험결과 FRP 보강근은 매우 혹독한 화학적 환경에서 우수한 내구성을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다.
