The research was performed to review the design factors which affect the durability of structures. For the study, domestic and foreign literature review were performed on various design criteria. Based on Korean standard specifications, the results showed that the durability of structure as the diameter of reinforcing steel bar becomes smaller and the distance between reinforcing bar is closer than the normal gap. The results were also presented that the minimum required bar cover is 6.6cm to obtain the durability index value. In addition, the maximum limited bar cover was 12cm considering the durability index and the change of increasing value of durability index. In case that there is no specified regulation for the bar cover thickness change, the durability life by neutralization is proportional to the thickness of bar cover.

본 논문은 내구성(durability) 및 내오염성(soiling resistance)이 매우 중요한 성질로 인식되는 유통지의 평가방법을 제안하는데 목적이 있다. 즉, 종이의 내구성 및 내오염성의 측정 및 평가에 있어서, 재현성 및 반복성이 우수하고 합리적인 측정방법 및 평가방법을 구축하는데 목적이 있다. 연구목적에 적합한 시료의 준비, 오염물의 조성, 실험장치 및 실험후의 타당한 평가방법 등에 대하여 선행 연구결과를 고찰하였다. 기존 방법의 수정과 새로운 장치의 제작 및 평가방법의 설정을 통해 재현성이 높은 평가방법을 정립하고자 하였다. 유통지의 내구성을 평가하는 방법으로는 습식, 내오염성, 건식 내오염성, 구김기공도, 내세탁성, 잉크 내마모도 등의 항목을 측정하여 개별항목으로 내구성을 가늠하거나, 몇가지항목에 각기 다른 가중치를 부여하여 구한 내구성 지수(durability index)의 개념으로 내구성을 평가하기도 한다. 본 논문에서는 내구성에 영향하는 요소로 강도적 성질요소(strength property value)와 내오염성 요소(artificial soiling value)로 구분하였다. 강도적 성질요소에서는 전통적으로 내구성과 관련이 깊은 것으로 인식되어 온 내절도(folding endurance), 인열강도(tearing resistance) 및 구김기공도(crumpled porosity)를 인쇄하기 전 용지상태에서 측정하여 4:4:2의 가중치를 주어 구하였다. 내오염성 요소는 국가별 기후특성에 따라 연평균 상대습도가 60% 이상인 경우 인쇄 시료를 대상으로하여 습식 내오염성, 건식 내오염성 및 내석검성을 평가한 후 6:3:1의 가중치를 주어 구하였다. 또한 연평균 60% 미만인 국가의 경우 3:6:1의 가중치를 부여하였다. 이렇게 구해진 강도적 성질요소와 내오염성 요소에 있어 강도적 성질요소는 궁극적으로 내오염성 요소에 영향하기 때문에 3:7의 비율로 가중치를 부여하여 최종적으로 내구성 지수를 구하였다. 이때의 점수가 60점 이상이면 내구성 용지로 정의하였다. 본 논문에서는 현장실험을 통하여 시제품을 제조하였다. 상기 설명된 방법으로 내구성 지수를 구한 결과, 일반 유통지 제조방법으로 제조한 경우 내구성 지수가 약 45점이었다. 반면, 새로 개발된 방법에 의한 고내구성용지(durability paper)의 경우 70점 이상을 나타내어 내구성이 향상되었음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The service life evaluation in RC(Reinforced Concrete) structure exposed to chloride attack can be classified into deterministic and probabilistic method, and it significantly varies with design parameters. The present work derives PDF (Probability of Durability Failure) and the related service life considering time-dependent diffusion coefficient and internal parameters such as reference diffusion coefficient, critical chloride content, and time-exponent. When critical chloride content increases to 133.3%, the changing ratios of service life are 134.0~145.4% for deterministic method and 149.2%~152.5% for probabilistic method, respectively. In the case of increasing time-exponent to 200%, they increase to 323.8% for deterministic method and 346.0% for probabilistic method. Through adopting time-diffusion coefficient for probabilistic method, reasonable service life evaluation can be achieved, and it is also verified that increasing time-exponent through mineral admixture is very effective to extension of service life in RC structure.

Because of a fissility characteristics of shale in the Gyoungsang super-group, it breaks down to debris when daylighted by construction work and causes a slope unstability. To assess the durability property of shale, a series of slake durability tests was conducted by controlling test conditions such as shape of specimen, number of specimen, revolution speed, revolution number, drying temperature and pH of submerging liquid. For the specimen shape, cube one showed relatively lower durability index than cuboid and/or fan shape one. The test with the more number of specimens showed the less durability index because of a higher friction among specimens in the drum. The durability index is linearly decreased by increasing the total number of revolution, while the revolution velocity could not affect the index. And the durability index is also decreased by increasing the drying temperature of specimen and by decreasing the pH of submerging liquid. Because the durability index of shale is almost similar to that of crystalline rocks, the disintegration characteristics of shale could not be assessed by the slake durability test recommended by ISRM, and thus a new test method by changing the total revolution number may be required for the shale having fissility characteristics.

The interest in the use of shield TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine) on the tunnel excavation has been increased rapidly in Korea. The shield TBM tunnel is generally designed as non-drainage tunnel. Consequently, if water leakage through the segment joints happens, big problems on the usage and stability of tunnel can be occurred. In this study, the variation of waterproof capacity of hydrophilic waterstop by the construction error and excessive displacement of segment was studied firstly. Secondly, the decrease of durability of hydrophilic waterstop by the sulphate and chloride contained in the groundwater and seawater was investigated. The results showed that if the angle discordance at the segment joints is beyond the 2 degree, the proper waterproof capacity of hydrophilic waterstop can not be guaranteed. In addition, if the hydrophilic rubber waterstop is exposed to the sulphate for a while, the proper durability of hydrophilic waterstop can not be expected.

We performed laboratory measurements of the mechanical properties and slake durability of Cretaceous shale from the Hwasun area, Korea, including highly weathered and fresh samples, yielding ranges of specific gravity of 2.14-2.88, dry density of 1.86-2.83(g/$cm^3$), water content of 0.12-6.36 (%), porosity of 1.33-20.49 (%), and absorption ratio of 0.51-8.5 (%). The absorption ratio shows a strong linear relation with porosity, expressed as Ab = 0.44P-0.09 (Ab: absorption ratio, P: porosity). Values of the slake durability index ($Id_2$) and point load intensity index ($Is_{(50)}$) of highly weathered to fresh shale are 90.07-99.33 (%) and 10.8-90.2(kg/$cm^2$), respectively. $Id_2$ is linearly related to $Is_{(50)}$, expressed as $Is(50)=1E-07e^{0.2033Id_2}$(kg/$cm^2$)($r^2=0.69$). This equation is a useful tool for estimating the $Id_2$ value for shale in the Hwasun area.

Because of the defect in design, damage in using period, and deterioration in long term exposure to severe environmental condition, degradation of performance in RC (Reinforced Concrete) structures has occurred. This paper contains durability performance evaluation in railway bridges which covers eight districts through field investigation. For the target structures, durability performance is evaluated and the critical problems in use are derived. Additionally, service lifes for the deteriorated structures are evaluated through Durability-Environment index method based on the results from field investigation, and the results are compared with those from the condition assuming the structures without defect, damage, and deterioration. The target structures which consist of RC T girder, PSC girder, RC box, and Rahmen are investigated and the critical damage patterns are derived. They are evaluated to be cracks in PSC girder end, flexural cracks in PSC girder, crack around EPT anchor, and flexural cracks in RC T girder and RC box. The reasons for the critical patterns are also investigated. This study can be utilized for the repair planning considering the different district and the structure types.

In this paper, service life for RC(Reinforced Concrete) substructure subjective to carbonation was evaluated through deterministic and probabilistic method considering field investigation data and Design Code(KDS 14 20 40). Furthermore changes in service life with increasing COV(Coefficient of Variation) and equivalent safety index meeting the same service life were studied. From the investigation, the mean and its COV of cover depth were evaluated to 70.0 ~ 90.0 mm and 0.2, respectively. With intended failure probability of 10.0 % and 70 mm of cover depth, service life decreased to 137 years, 123 years, and 91 years with increasing COV of 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2, respectively. In the case of 80 mm of cover depth, it changes to 179 years, 161 years, and 120 years with increasing COV. The equivalent safety index meeting the same service life from deterministic method showed 1.66 ~ 3.43 for 70 mm of cover depth and 1.61 ~ 3.24 for 80 mm of cover depth, respectively. The various design parameters covering local environment and quality condition in deterministic method yields a considerable difference of service life, so that determination of design parameters are required for exposure conditions and parameter variation.
