Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore the possibility of estimating optimum surface finishing work time of the fresh concrete placed at the job site by applying a surface hardness test meter(Durometer). Tests are carried out by measuring and comparing the Proctor penetration resistance test and hardness test by Durometer. Correlations between Procter penetration test and hardness test by Durometer were obtained. Two different types Durometer were applied to estimate setting time. Test results indicate that the measurement of the Durometer and the test of the Proctor penetration resistance are highly correlated. When measuring the initial setting time with Durometer, initial setting time is reached when the hardness value by the type C Durometer is reached around 42HD, and when final setting is measured with the type D Durometer, the surface finishing work time limit and curing time can be estimated with 10HD of Durometer.

본 연구는 현재 작업자의 경험과 감각에만 의존하고있는 표면 마감작업시간 판정을 Durometer 측정치와 Proctor 관입저항 시험치를 비교하여 응결시간 판정에 듀로미터를 활용함으로써 실무 구조체의 과학적이고 정량적인 표면 마감시간의 추정 가능성을 분석하고자 하였다. 연구 결과로 Durometer 측정치와 Proctor 관입저항 시험치는 상관성이 높다고 판단되어 콘크리트의 경우 초결 측정시에는 Durometer C type으로 42HD전후 일 때 표면 마감작업 개시가능 시간결정에, 종결 측정시에는 Durometer D type으로 10HD 전후일때 표면마감 한계시간, 양생개시 시간 등에 유용하게 사용할 수 있을 것으로 사료되었다.
