Abstract
Even though high performance concrete was developed according to the trend of bigger and higher of reinforced concrete building, the rheological evaluations such as viscosity, yield stress are not enough to use as input data to accomplish the numerical analysis for the construction design. So there are many problems in the harden concrete such as poor compaction, rock pocket and crack, etc. in the field. In this study, consistency curves were measured by the viscometer as hydration reaction time passed. At the same time the slump flow test and Vicat setting test were carried out for comparing with the results of rheological properties. The fluidity of the W/B 30% decreased as the increase of replacement ratio of blast furnace slag. But in case of W/B 40%, the replacement ration did not significantly influenced to the slump flow value with the passage of hydration time. By the replacement of blast furnace slag to cement, initial setting was delayed and the time gap between initial and final setting became shorten. Through the regression analysis using Bingham model, there are a sudden changes of viscosity and yield stress around initial setting in case of low W/B 30%. The increase of workability by the change of free water in cement paste was offset by the coating effect of impermeable layer in case of W/B 40%.
철근콘크리트 건축물의 대형화 및 고층화에 대응하여 고성능 콘크리트가 개발되어 사용되고 있지만 레올로지 특성평가가 적절히 이뤄지지 않아 시공설계를 위한 수치해석에 소성점도 및 항복값의 책정이 적절하지 못한 실정이며 이로 인해 경화된 콘크리트 품질 안정화에 많은 문제점을 나타내고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고로슬래그 미분말 혼입 시멘트 페이스트를 대상으로 물분체비 및 치환율을 실험인자로 응결진행하의 시간경과에 따른 컨시스턴시 곡선을 측정하였다. 빙함모델로 가정한 회귀분석을 통해 소성점도 및 항복값을 산출한 결과 물분체비가 작을수록 초결 전후의 변화가 급격한 것을 알 수 있었다. 치환율을 40%까지 상승시키더라도 자유수변화와 고로슬래그 미분말의 불투수성 산화피막 형성에 의한 코팅효과가 상쇄되어 큰 변화로 관찰되지 않았다.
