Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the properties of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) using low quality recycled aggregate with or without washing before usage. The recycled aggregate concrete evaluated in this study contained various amounts of low quality recycled aggregate, viz. 30%, 60% and 100%. To evaluate the performance of the recycled aggregate concrete, various test methods were employed to assess its compressive strength, absorption, surface resistance, ultrasound velocity, chloride ion resistance, etc. The properties of the RAC with 30% and 60% washed recycled aggregate were similar those of the natural aggregate. However, the properties of the RAC with 100% washed recycled aggregate were slightly lower than those of the other versions. Also, the RAC with the non-washed recycled aggregate exhibited lower performance results. The results showed that the RAC with washed recycled aggregate had similar properties to normal concrete (concrete using natural aggregate). This implies that the recycled aggregate should be washed to improve the RCA.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트 적용 저품질 순환골재의 콘크리트 적용을 위하여 공학적 특성을 평가 하였다. 이를 위해서 저품질 순환골재의 세척유무에 따라서 골재 치환율을 30%, 60%, 100%로 콘크리트 제작하여 실험하였으며, 성능평가를 위하여 제작된 순환골재 사용 콘크리트의 압축강도, 흡수율, 표면전기저항, 초음파속도, 염소이온침투저항성 평가를 실시하였다. 세척한 저품질 순환골재의 경우 30% 치환시 천연골재와 유사한 결과를 모든 시험에서 나타내었다. 또한 60%를 치환한 콘크리트에서도 천연골재와 유사한 성능을 나타내는 것으로 확인되었다. 그러나 100%의 골재를 사용하는 것은 천연 골재 보다 다소 낮은 결과 값을 나타내었다. 반면 세척을 하지 않은 저품질 순환골재의 경우는 치환율에 관계없이 전체적으로 천연골재보다 좋지 않은 결과를 나타내었다. 특히 내구성 평가의 척도로 평가한 염소이온침투저항성 평가에서는 초기의 경우 매우 높음의 결과를 나타내었으며, 28일 재령에서도 보통 수준의 저항성을 나타내어 세척 순환골재와 약 2배 정도의 차이를 나타내었다. 따라서, 저품질 순환골재의 콘크리트 적용에 있어서 골재의 세척유무에 따라서 성능이 변화하는 것을 확인하였다.
