Abstract

Recently, the frequency of damage to slopes for highways, railways, and complexes has been increasing according to abnormal climates such as heavy rainfall or snowfall. Rapid Hardening Composite Mat (RHCM) could be a satisfactory alternative because it has the advantages that large-scale earthwork is not essential and the period for restoration is minimized. Also, this method does not require heavy machines and a phase of maintenance for slopes against the shotcrete method or planted slope protection, which are representative slope protection methods. Furthermore, the curing time is shorter than Geosynthetic Concrete Composite Mat (GCCM). Therefore, RHCM could be useful for emergency restoration work. Thus, in this study, the strength and duration of RHCM are estimated, compared, and analyzed with GCCM. As a result of the laboratory test, the strength of RHCM is greater 51%, and the duration is larger 69% than GCCM.

최근 폭우, 폭설 등과 같은 이상기후로 인해 도로, 철도 및 단지에 적용된 비탈면의 국부적 파괴 또는 손상 빈도가 점차 증가하고 있다. 초속경 복합매트(Rapid Hardening Composite Mat, RHCM)은 대규모 토공이 불필요하고 수해복구시간을 최소화할 수 있는 장점이 있어 대안으로 고려될 수 있다. RHCM은 대표적인 비탈면 보호공법인 숏크리트 공법 및 식생공 공법에 비해 중장비 설비가 불필요하고 유지관리가 용이하며, 기존 Geosynthetic Concrete Composite Mat(GCCM)에 비해 경화시간이 짧아 긴급복구가 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 실내시험을 통해 RHCM의 강도 및 내구성을 측정하고 GCCM과 비교·분석하였다. 실내시험 결과 RHCM의 강도는 기존 GCCM에 비해 약 51% 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 내구성 또한 69% 높은 것으로 나타났다.
