Abstract

For the nuclear power concrete plant structures in the UAE, it is necessary to consider the deterioration from high sulfate ions in the atmosphere and high chloride ions from the coast. In this study, two strength grade concrete mixture (40 MPa and 27 MPa) and two curing/diffusion temperatures (20 ℃ and 50 ℃) were considered for evaluating the temperature effects on diffusion and strength due to high average temperature above 38 ℃ a year in UAE. When the initial curing temperature was high, the compressive strength increased in high-temperature curing to 7 days, but the strength slightly increased in the 20 ℃ curing condition at 28 days. Regarding diffusion test, unlike the compressive test results, reduced chloride diffusion coefficients were evaluated both in 40 MPa and 27 MPa grade at 28 days. In the case of 91 days of curing, an increase in diffusivity due to high temperature and a decrease in diffusivity due to age effect occur simultaneously. Compared to the results of the curing and diffusion tests at 20 ℃ and 28 days, when the curing and diffusion tests were conducted at 50 ℃ in 91 days, the diffusion coefficients decreased to 76.2 % in 40 MPa grade and 85.4 % in 37 MPa grade with increasing curing period, respectively.

UAE 지역에 시공되는 원전구조물의 노출환경에서 대기 중의 높은 황산염 이온 및 해안의 높은 염화물 이온에 의한 열화를 고려할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 연평균 38 ℃ 이상의 높은 온도에 따른 확산성과 강도의 영향을 평가하기 위해 두가지 강도 등급(40 MPa 및 27 MPa) 및 두 가지 양생/확산 온도 조건(20 ℃ 및 50 ℃)을 고려하였다. 초기 양생 온도가 높은 경우, 7일 전 초기재령에서는 압축강도가 고온 양생에서 크게 발현하였으나, 28일 재령에서는 20 ℃ 양생 온도 조건에서 압축강도가 약간 증가하였다. 염화물 확산의 경우, 강도 평가결과와 다르게 28일 재령에서 초기 양생 온도가 높은 경우, 40 MPa 및 27 MPa 에서 모두 확산계수가 감소하였다. 91일 재령의 경우, 온도의 증가에 따른 확산성의 증가와 재령 효과에 의한 확산성의 감소가 동시에 발생하였다. 재령 28일에 20 ℃로 양생 및 확산 실험을 한 결과에 비하여, 재령 91일에 50 ℃로 양생 및 확산 실험을 한 경우, 재령의 증가에 따라 40 MPa에서는 76.2 % 수준으로, 27 MPa 에서는 85.4 % 수준으로 확산계수가 감소하였다.
