Abstract

In this study, the applicability of impact-echo method for assessment of residual strength of fire-damaged concrete is investigated. A series of standard fire test is performed to obtain fire-damaged concrete specimens. Impact-echo tests are executed on the specimens and the responses are analyzed. Compressive strengths of the fire-damaged concrete are evaluated and correlated with the ultrasonic wave velocities determined from the impact-echo responses. The effectiveness of impact-echo based ultrasonic wave velocity measurement for assessment of residual strength of fire-damaged concrete is discussed.

이 연구에서는 화해된 콘크리트의 잔존 강도 평가에 있어서 충격-반향 기법의 적용성을 알아보고자 하였다. 화해를 모사하기 위해 콘크리트 실험체에 대한 표준 화재 온도 가열 시험을 실시하고, 화해된 콘크리트 실험체에 대해 충격-반향 응답 실험 및 압축 강도 실험을 실시하였다. 화해된 콘크리트의 충격-반향 응답 특성과 압축 강도의 잔존 특성을 분석하였으며, 또한 충격-반향 응답으로부터 구한 초음파 속도와 잔존 압축 강도와의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 연구 결과 화해된 콘크리트의 초음파 속도를 충격-반향 기법으로 신뢰성 있게 계측할 수 있으며, 또한 잔존 강도 평가에 충격-반향 기법을 유효하게 적용 가능하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
