콘크리트에서 발생되는 균열은 구조물의 내구성뿐만 아니라 구조물의 안전성에도 악영향을 미치게 하며, 경우에 따라서는 사회적인 문제로까지 대두되기도 한다. 콘크리트의 균열은 크게 굳지 않은 콘크리트와 경화콘크리트에서 발생될 수 있는 균열로 나눌 수 있다. 굳지 않은 콘크리트에서 발생될 수 있는 균열요인으로는 대표적으로 콘크리트의 초기동결, 소성침하, 거푸집 및 동바리의 조기제거 등을 들 수 있고, 경화콘크리트에서는 물리ㆍ화학적요인, 열적요인, 구조적요인 등을 들 수 있다. 이러한 여러 가지의 균열요인 중에서 최근들어 열적요인에 해당되는 매스콘크리트의 온도균열 문제가 자주 대두되고 있는 실정이다.

The objective of this study was to investigate features of transverse crack occurrence and propagation in continuously reinforced concrete pavement(CRCP) when subjected to environmental loading. The finite element model of CRCP was developed and the element removal method was implemented to predict the crack propagation process. To investigate the effect of the type of environmental loading on the CRCP behavior and cracking aspects, the following three different cases were considered: (1) the temperature gradient between top and bottom of the slab does not vary and the constant temperature drop throughout the depth occurs; (2) the temperature at the slab bottom does not vary and the temperature gradient increases; and (3) the temperature between the mid-depth and the bottom of the slab is the same and does not vary and the temperature at the top decreases. The analysis results showed that the crack occurrence and propagation through the depth of the slab in CRCP were significantly affected by the type of environmental loading. The changes in stress distribution and displacements during the crack occurrence and propagation process could also be investigated.

A surface acoustic wave method for the evaluation of small fatigue crack initiated from a pit-type surface flaw is presented. In-situ ultrasonic experiments are performed for aluminum 2024-T3 alloy samples under the fatigue test. During the fatigue test, the surface acoustic wave reflection signal from the pit and crack is measured under different hold-stress levels. From the measured and predicted surface wave reflections the depths of fully and partially open cracks are determined and results are verified by comparing with SEM fractography The crack opening behavior of the fatigue crack is evaluated from the predicted effective crack depths. The method developed in this study can be applied to monitor and characterize crack initiation and propagation from pit-type surface flaws in the early stage of fatigue life.

Especially, when orthotropic material such as uni-dierectionally woven Carbon Fiber Sheet, resisting only the unidirectional tension, is used to strengthening bridge deck, the direction and width of the strengthening material should be considered very carefully. Thus, analysis of the failure characteristics and the premature failure mechanism of the strengthened decks based on the test results are required. In this study, the premature failure due to the interface debonding of strengthening material of the strengthened deck slab are inquired into failure mechanism through both experiments results and analyses with prototype strengthened deck specimens using carbon fiber sheet. From the test results, interface debonding of strengthening material is occured at the crack face

The present study concerns modelling the structural behaviour for concrete structure into the crack initiation at corrosion of steels. The degradation source included the axial load and steel corrosion. A development of the rust formed on the steel surface was considered with the interfacial gap between steel and concrete. As a result, the tensile damage could occur on the surface of concrete into the cracking with no steel corrosion, which could be further developed by the increasing rust formation, while the cracking at the steel-concrete interface was mainly attributed to the compressive deformation, being restricted within the interfacial zone.

본 연구는 국내의 플랜지 전문생산업체에서 제작하여 국외의 정유회사로 공급한 플랜지중 1개가 수압시험중 균열이 발생되어, 이에 대한 원인규명을 하고자 하였다. 먼저 균열이 간 플랜지와 동일재질의 건전한 플랜지를 입수하여 화학성분분석, 기계적 성질, 개재물, 경도측정 및 미세조직관찰을 통하여 비교조사하였고 파괴플랜지 용접부의 조직 및 경도측정으로 용접부의 영향을 조사하였다. 또한 파괴면의 육안관찰, SEM, EPMA 및 XRD분석으로써 균열발생 시기와 상태등을 추정하였다.

Concrete guide rail and median barrier are an attached RC member, however they are vulnerable to cracking due to slip form construction and large surface of member. In this study, causes and pattern of cracking are analyzed through assessment and NDT (Non-Destructive Technique) evaluation for concrete guide rail and median barrier on highway structure. For this work, analysis on drying shrinkage and hydration heat are performed considering installation period, and plastic shrinkage is also analyzed considering their environmental conditions. From the evaluation, plastic settlement around steel location, drying/ plastic shrinkage, and aggregate segregation are inferred to be the main causes of cracking in the structures. The crack causes and patterns are schematized and techniques of crack-control are suggested. Furthermore concrete guide rail/ median barrier in the bridge on the sea are vulnerable to cracking at early age so that special attentions should be paid at the stages of material selection and construction.

This paper is designed to propose methods to both analyze and control the reasons for cracks appearing during the construction of piers. For this aim, a numerical analysis was performed to identify the properties of crack which resulted from heat of hydration and differential drying shrinkage with the key influence factors considered. The results show that the thermal cracks occurred within a few days, and the drying shrinkage cracks within a few weeks. Meanwhile, settlement shrinkage cracks occurred within a few hours. Discussing the control methods based on the time of the cracks appearing, quality control, reduction of the unit quantity of cement, and the preservation of moisture on the surface are proposed as the realistic and effective methods for preventing settlement cracks, thermal cracks, and drying shrinkage cracks respectively.

고온 고압 산업용 설비의 경우, 대부분 균열이 용접부위에서 가장 먼저 발생하여 성장한다(1). 그러나 용접부라고 하지만 장기간 사용에 의한 사용재 균열성장은 엄밀히 말하면 용접부와 모재부 사이의 열영향부이며 열영향부 중에서도 ICHAZ(Intercritical heat affected zone)에서 발생하는 TYPE IV균열/sup (1)/이라 하겠다 따라서 용접부 균열에 대한 파괴거동을 연구하는 것은 고온고압 산업용 설비의 잔여 수명을 평가하는데 매우 중요하다.(중략)

The lining concrete of water tunnel is a much capability to occur crack due to drying shrinkage and vibrator compaction etc. Because of crack of concrete induce structural problem and decrease durability of concrete, it is need to reduce crack of concrete. In this an Analytical study to analyze the effect of curing of concrete and compaction on the lining concrete. As the results, it was found that control of construction condition into curing of concrete and compaction improve on construction efficiency of the lining concrete.
