Abstract

This paper is to provide the results of usability of the impact force response signal induced from initial and successive rebound impacting a rock specimen for assessing the compressive strength of rock non-destructively. For this study, a device was devised for impacting a rock specimen and a system for measuring the impact force was set up. The impact was carried out by an initial rotating free falling impact and following repetitive impacts from the rebound action which eventually disappears. Three different kinds of rock specimen were tested and an impact force response signal was measured for each test specimen. The total impact force signal energy which is assessed from integrating the impact force response signal induced from initial and rebound impacts was compared with the directly measured compressive strength for each rock specimen. The comparison showed that the total impact force signal energy has a direct relationship with the directly measured compressive strength and the results clearly indicated that the compressive strength of rock can be assessed non-destructively using total impact force signal energy.

본 연구는 암석의 압축강도를 비파괴적으로 산정하기 위하여 암석시편 초기타격 및 반발에 의한 연속적인 반복타격 시 발생하는 타격력에 대한 응답신호를 모두 측정하고 이를 누적한 전체 타격력 신호에너지를 이용하고 그 결과를 제시하는 것에 관한 것이다. 본 연구에서는 이를 위해서 타격 및 측정장치를 고안 및 셋업하였고 이를 이용하여 암석시편을 회전 자유낙하에 의해 초기 타격토록하고 반발작용에 의한 반복타격이 이루어질 수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구에서는 서로 다른 세 종류의 암석시편에 대하여 타격력실험을 실시하고 발생신호를 측정하였다. 각 시편별 초기 및 반발타격으로부터 발생된 신호로부터 산정된 전체 타격력 신호에너지와 각 시편별 측정한 직접압축강도와 상호 비교하였다. 비교결과, 타격력 응답신호로 부터 산정된 전체 타격력 신호에너지는 시편의 직접압축강도와 직접적인 관계가 있다는 것을 확인하였으며, 이를 통해 암석의 압축강도는 타격 시 발생하는 타격력 응답신호로부터 산정된 전체 타격력 신호에너지를 이용하여 비파괴적으로 산정할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.
