Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate experimentally the effect of the combination of fine particle cement with high Blaine fineness (FC) and recycled aggregates on the engineering properties and micro structure of high volume blast furnace slag (BS) concrete with 75% BS and 21 MPa. FC manufactured by particle classification at the plant with Blaine fineness of more than $7000cm^2/g$ was used as additional alkali activator for high volume blast furnace slag concrete made with recycled fine and coarse aggregates. FC was replaced by 15, 20 and 25% OPC. Test results showed that the incorporation of FC resulted in an increase in the compressive strength compared to BS concrete without FC by as much as 30% due to accelerated hydration and associated latent hydraulic reaction. It was found that the use of FC and recycled aggregates played an important role in activating BS for high volume BS concrete by offering sufficient alkali.

본 연구에서는 BS다량 치환 콘크리트의 알칼리자극제로서 순환골재 및 고분말도의 FC를 복합 사용한 콘크리트의 제반 공학적 특성 및 미시적 분석을 실시하였다. FC 치환에 따른 슬럼프 및 공기량은 큰 차이가 없었으며, 응결시간은 FC 치환에 따라 비례적으로 단축되는 것으로 나타났다. FC 치환에 따른 압축강도는 고분말도의 FC가 치환됨에 따라 촉진된 수화반응 및 순환골재의 미수화 시멘트의 알칼리 용출로 인해 BS의 잠재수경성 반응을 촉진시켜 초기 및 28일 재령에서의 Plain 대비 강도저하를 상당부분 회복할 수 있었으며, 특히 향후 재령이 경과함에 따라 포졸란 반응의 활성화로 추가적인 강도향상이 기대된다. 탄산화 저항성의 경우 큰 차이가 없으며, 세공분포의 경우 FC 치환률이 증가함에 따라 $0.1{\mu}m$이하의 미세 공극분포가 급격히 증가하는 경향을 보였고, SEM 측정결과 FC 치환에 따른 7일 및 28일에서의 C-S-H 및 $Ca(OH)_2$의 생성을 확인하여 FC가 BS 다량치환 순환골재 콘크리트의 알칼리 자극에 기여함을 확인 할 수 있었다.
