Abstract

The guide line of the SFRC mix design was not established, and the convenience of the practical application on the spot is not so good. In this paper, hence, the program which is optimized to result the mix proportion by the flexural strength and toughness, was developed to apply to SFRC on the practical spot. This program could minimize the number of trial mixes and get an economical and appropriate mixture. In addition, the theoretical background on which the program is based, will be the basis of the embodied method to mixing SFRC. Additionally, new algorithm, in this paper, was used to develop the mix proportioning program of SFRC. The new algorithm is the Harmony Search which is the heuristic method mimicking the improvisation of music players, Musical performances seek a best state determined by aesthetic estimation, as the optimization algorithms seek a best state determined by objected function value. And, it was developed the program about single fiber reinforced concrete, beside to the hybrid fiber reinforced concrete that two kinds of steel fibers, which have the different geometry, was reinforced. This will be able to keep the world trend to study, hence, offers the basis of the next research about hybrid fiber reinforced concrete.

강섬유보강 콘크리트는 일반 콘크리트에 비해 휨성능이 월등히 우수하지만, 아직까지 국내에는 이에 대한 명확한 배합설계 지침이 확립되어 있지 않은 상황이다. 또한, 강섬유를 2종이상 동시에 혼입하여 사용하는 하이브리드 섬유보강 콘크리트에 대해서는 최근에 들어서야 그 연구가 시작되었으며, 이에 대해서도 배합에 대한 구체적인 지침이 확립되어 있지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 새로운 최적화 기법인 화음탐색법을 이용하여 강섬유 및 하이브리드 섬유보강 콘크리트의 최적배합 프로그램을 개발하였으며, 검증 실험을 수행하여 프로그램의 신뢰도를 높였다. 이는 현장 시험 배합횟수의 감소 및 배합설계의 편의성 향상 등에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다. 또한, 실험 결과 동일한 강섬유 혼입률이라 하더라도, 하이브리드 섬유보강 콘크리트가 일반 강섬유보강 콘크리트보다 휨강도 및 휨인성 모두 우수한 것으로 나타났으며 이를 프로그램 상에 추가 반영하였다. 이는 세계적으로도 아직 연구 초기 단계에 있는 하이브리드 섬유보강 콘크리트의 휨 특성을 파악하는데에도 향후 연구의 발판이 될 것으로 생각되며, 지속적인 실험 및 연구로 보완이 된다면 보다 더 정밀도를 높일 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
