Abstract

Rebound hammer test, SonReb method and concrete core test are most useful testing methods for estimate the concrete compressive strength of deteriorated concrete structures. But the accuracy of the NDE results on the existing structures could be reduced by the effects of the uncertainty of nondestructive test methods, material effects by aging and carbonation, and mechanical damage by drilling of core. In this study, empirical procedure for verifying the in-situ compressive strength of concrete is suggested through the probabilistic analysis on the 268 data of rebound and ultra-pulse velocity and core strengths obtained from 106 bridges. To enhance the accuracy of predicted concrete strength, the coefficients of core strength, and surface hardness caused by ageing or carbonation was adopted. From the results, the proposed equation by KISTEC and the estimation procedures proposed by authors is reliable than previously suggested equation and correction coefficient.

반발경도법과 복합법에 의한 현장비파괴 시험과 코어강도의 평가는 노후화된 구조물의 상태평가를 위하여 가장 효과적인 방법이다. 그러나 비파괴 시험방법의 불확실성과 함께 재료의 재령, 탄산화와 코어채취시의 물리적 손상 등에 의하여 현장강도 추정시의 정밀도를 낮추는 요인으로 작용하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 106개 교량에서 수집된 268개의 비파괴시험결과와 코어압축강도 결과를 사용하여 현장 압축강도 추정방법을 제시하고자 하였다. 코어강도의 신뢰도를 높이기 위하여 수정계수를 적용하고자 하였으며, 노후콘크리트의 반발경도에 영향을 미치는 탄산화 또는 재령에 의한 수정계수를 적용하여 현장 강도 추정결과의 신뢰도를 높이고자 하였다. KISTEC의 제안 추정식과 수정계수를 적용한 경우 기존의 추정방법과 비교하여 신뢰도가 높아지는 것으로 나타났다.
