Abstract

This paper presents mechanical properties and carbonation behavior of the recycled aggregate concretes(RAC) in which natural aggregate was replaced by recycled coarse aggregate and fine aggregate by specified concrete strength levels(21, 35, 50MPa). A total of 18 RAC were produced and classified into six series, each of which included three mixes designed with three specified concrete strength levels of 21MPa, 35MPa and 50MPa and three recycled aggregate replacement ratios of 0, 50 and 100%. Physical and mechanical properties of RAC were tested for slump test, compressive strength, and carbonation depth. The test results indicated that the slump of RAC could be improved or same by recycled coarse aggregate replacement ratios, when compared with natural aggregate. But slump of RAC was decreased as the recycled fine aggregate replacement ratios increase. Also, the test results showed that the compressive strength was decreased as the recycled aggregate replacement ratios increased and it had a conspicuous tendency to decrease when the content of the recycled aggregate exceeded 50%. Furthermore, the result indicated that the measured carbonation depth increases by 40% with the increase of the recycled aggregate replacement. In the case of the concrete having low level compressive strength, the increase of carbonation depth tends to be higher when using the RCA. However, the trend of carbonation resistivity in high level compressive strength concrete is similar to that obtained in natural aggregate concrete. Therefore, an advance on the admixture application and mix ratio control are required to improve the carbonation resistivity when using the recycled aggregate in large scale.

본 연구에서는 국내에서 생산되고 있는 콘크리트용 순환 굵은골재 및 순환잔골재를 사용하여 콘크리트의 설계기준 강도(21, 35, 50MPa) 및 순환골재의 혼입조건 변화가 콘크리트의 탄산화 거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 실험결과 순환 굵은골재의 혼입률 변화에 따른 콘크리트의 슬럼프는 순환골재를 혼입하지 않은 경우에 비해 동등하거나 양호한 유동성을 나타내는 것으로 나타났으며, 순환 잔골재를 혼입한 경우는 혼입률이 증가함에 따라 슬럼프가 감소되는 결과를 나타냈다. 또한, 순환 굵은골재 및 순환 잔골재의 혼입률이 증가할수록 콘크리트의 압축강도는 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 순환골재 혼입률이 50%를 초과할 경우 급격한 강도 감소 경향을 나타냈다. 그리고 탄산화 깊이는 모든 순환골재 종류에서 혼입률이 증가함에 따라 최대 40%까지 증가하는 결과를 나타냈으며 낮은 강도 수준의 콘크리트 일수록 순환골재 활용에 따른 탄산화 저항성 저하 정도가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 콘크리트의 압축강도가 증가할수록 순환골재 혼입에 따른 영향은 감소되어, 고강도 영역에서는 일반 콘크리트와 유사한 탄산화 특성을 발현하는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 순환골재를 콘크리트용 재료로 대량 활용하기 위해서는 콘크리트의 탄산화 저항성의 개선 위한 혼화재료의 적용 또는 배합설계상 조정을 통한 강도의 개선 등이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
