Abstract

The aim of the research is to analyze a feasibility of rapid evaluation method for cement fineness by the relation analysis between density measurement using hydrometer and fineness of ordinary Portland cement. Additionally, based on the commercially available cement product, relation between a series of fundamental properties of cement mortar and fineness of cement powder was analyzed. As an experimental result, the actually measured fineness value of cement powder showed a good correlation with the fineness value obtained by hydrometer while there was poor correlation with the fineness value on specification. Especially, the density measurement in three minutes showed the closest relation with cement powder fineness, thus rapid quality evaluation of cement powder can be possible by using the regression equation obtained from the three minutes density measurement. Additionally, there was a high relation between cement powder fineness with a fundamental properties of the cement mortar such as fluidity, air content, setting time, and strength development.

본 연구에서는 실제 레미콘 공장에 납품되는 OPC 20회분의 시료를 채취하여 성적서상 분말도와 실측 분말도 간의 상관성을 분석하고, 아울러 종전에 연구된 액체밀도계법 밀도 값과 OPC 분말도간의 상관성을 분석하므로서 시멘트 분말도 신속 추정 가능성을 평가 하고자 하였다. 또한 납품된 시멘트 시료를 이용하여 시멘트 모르타르 상태에서 유동성, 공기량, 강도 등 제반 기초적 특성과 성적서 및 실측 분말도와의 상관성을 분석하고자 하였다. 실험결과 성적서상 OPC 분말도와 실측 분말도는 매우 낮은 상관성을 나타내었다. 또한, 액체밀도계 밀도 값과 OPC 분말도간의 상관성은 성적서상 분말도는 매우 낮은 상관성을 나타낸 반면, 실측 분말도는 매우 높은 상관성을 나타내었다. 이때 액체밀도계 3분밀도 값과 OPC 분말도가 가장 높은 상관성을 나타내었는데, 그 회귀식을 활용할 경우 액체밀도계를 사용한 OPC 분말도의 신속 품질 평가가 가능할 것으로 판단되었다. 또한, OPC 분말도와 모르타르 특성치의 상관관계로서 성적서상 분말도의 경우는 상관성이 거의 없는 반면 OPC 분말도가 클수록 유동성, 공기량, 응결시간 및 강도치는 모두 높은 상관성이 나타남을 확인할 수 있었다.
