Abstract
We carried out this study to provide basic data necessary to establish a management plan for concrete erosion control dams in the future by analyzing results of detailed inspections of aged dams conducted in accordance with 「Guidelines for the Maintenance of the Erosion Control Facility」. We analyzed the results of a detailed inspection of 54 concrete erosion control dams which had been built over 20 years previously, located in private forests of Gyeongsangbuk-do using statistical methods. Having conducted exterior defect investigations, we found 18 dams (33.4%) in need of repair or follow-up measures and 15 dams in which the overall grade was changed due to investigator's corrections; we therefore considered that standardization of related standards and indicators would be necessary. After conducting concrete compression strength tests, we found 19 dams (35.2%) to be below the standard value of 21 MPa, and in particular, we included, in grade A, eight dams which we judged to be in good condition as a result of the exterior defect inspection. There was little clear correlation between the total score and the compressive strength of concrete, but there was a statistically significant difference in the compressive strength by overall grade. After analyzing the changes in the characteristics of the erosion control dams according to the elapsed years after construction, we detected no particular trend in the changes of total score and compressive strength over time. However, the cumulative ratio of the dams that required repair and follow-up measures and the dams below the compression strength standard had a strong positive linear relationship over time, suggesting that it would be possible to identify the aging characteristics of concrete erosion control dams.
