초록

본 연구는 점토와 골재로 구성된 벽돌을 경화하는데 있어 효소 첨가제의 효과를 재료시험과 이미지 프로세싱을 통해 분석하였다. 벽돌의 강도와 밀도 시험에 사용한 벽돌 샘플의 점토/골재 중량비는 70/30, 60/40, 50/50, 40/60, 30/70이였으며, 최대 압축강도와 휨강도는 각각 5MPa와 1.25MPa으로 중량비 60/40에서 발현되었다. 또한 최대 건조단위 중량은 $2.073g/cm^3$으로 중량비 50/50에서 발현되었다. 시험 결과 전반적으로 벽돌의 강도는 효소를 첨가함으로 약 27% 향상되었다. 강도 향상을 위해서는 점토/골재 중량비 60/40, 밀도 향상을 위해서는 점토/골재 중량비 50/50에 효소를 첨가하여 벽돌을 경화하는 것이 효과적인 것으로 확인되었다. 효소 첨가 시 점토-골재 벽돌의 결합구조가 더 치밀해짐을 SEM-EDX 분석과 Matlab을 이용한 이미지 프로세싱을 통해 확인하였으며, 이를 통해 효소가 점토와 골재 간 결합구조를 형성하여 벽돌의 강도와 밀도를 향상시키는 효과가 있는 것으로 판단된다.

This study investigates enzyme stabilization in clay-rock bricks through mechanical tests and image processing. Appropriate soil mixtures were designed using clay/crushed rock with ratios of 70/30, 60/40, 50/50, 40/60, and 30/70 by weight to verify the strength of the enzyme brick and soil compaction. The maximum compressive and flexural strengths in the 60/40 ratio mixture were found to be 5MPa and 1.25MPa, respectively; however, the maximum dry unit weight of $2.073g/cm^3$ was found in the 50/50 clay/gravel ratio mixture. Generally, the strength of the enzyme brick was improved by 27%. The paper concludes that in order to achieve optimal strength, soils should be mixed with the 60/40 clay/gravel ratio, which provides an adequate strength, while 50/50 ratio should be used for achieving more compaction. The SEM-EDX observation and Matlab image processing verified how the bond structure appeared after enzyme stabilization. It was found that enzymes created bond with the clay soil and the crushed rock for rendering strength and stability.
