Abstract
The objective of this study is to propose a reliable mixing design procedure of concrete using artificial lightweight aggregate produced from expanded bottom ash and dredged soil. Based on test results obtained from 25 mixes, empirical equations to determine water-to-cement ratio, unit cement content, and replacement level of lightweight fine aggregates were formulated with regard to the targeted performance (compressive strength, dry density, initial slump, and air content) of lightweight aggregate concrete. From the proposed equations and absolute volume mixing concept, unit weight of each ingredient was calculated. The proposed mix design procedure limits the fine aggregate-to-total aggregate ratio by considering the replacement level of lightweight fine aggregates, different to previous approach for expanded fly ash and clay-based lightweight aggregate concrete. Thus, it is expected that the proposed procedure is effectively applied for determining the first trial mixing proportions for the designed requirements of concrete.
이 연구의 목적은 바텀애시 및 준설토 기반의 인공 경량골재 콘크리트의 합리적 배합설계 절차를 제시하는 것이다. 25 배합의 실험결과를 바탕으로 경량골재 콘크리트의 목표성능(압축강도, 절건 밀도, 초기 슬럼프, 공기량)에 대하여 물-시멘트 비, 단위 시멘트양, 경량 잔골재 치환율을 결정하는 식을 제시하였다. 제안된 식과 절대용적 배합의 개념으로부터 각 구성요소들의 단위용적중량을 산정하였다. 제시된 배합설계 절차는 기존 결정에 효율적으로 이용될 수 있다.
