Recently, the polymer is used as an admixture in the repair mortar, which contains various admixtures and mineral admixtures. In this study, the fresh and mechanical properties of repair mortar influenced by the types of polymers(classified as E.V.A.) and the range of polymer ratio were investigated. It was found that with increasing the ratio of polymer, mechanical properties(compressive strength, flexural strength, adhesive strength) of repair mortar is improved and drying shrinkage is increased.

In this paper, polymer-modified repair materials using polymer dispersions with six repair methods are prepared with various polymer-cement ratios, and tested for compressive and flexural strengths through each curing condition such as dry cure, water cure, and freezing and thawing cyclic action. And, the adhesive interface between the polymer-modified mortar and mortar substrate is observed by a scanning electron microscope. From the test results, the compressive and flexural strengths of cement mortar repaired by polymer-modified mortar are improved with a rise in the polymer-cement ratio regardless of the type of polymer and curing conditions. Such an improvement in the strengths of polymer-modified repair materials to ordinary cement mortar is explained by the high adhesion of polymer-modified mortar. Strength reduction of polymer-modified repair materials after freezing and thawing cyclic actions is recognized, but it is lower than that of unmodified mortar. Especially, cement mortar repaired by polymer-modified mortar with a St/BA emulsion has good strength properties compared with those of SBR latex and PA emulsion. Accordingly, it is judged that polymer-modified mortars with a St/BA emulsion are possible to use as repair materials to ordinary cement mortar and concrete.

The EVA polymer is used as a modifier in the repair mortar, which contains various admixtures and mineral admixtures. It has been reported that the effect of polymer in cement mortar by the cement-polymer ratio only, but effect of admixtures over the polymer mortar was unknown. In this study, the fresh and mechanical properties of polymer cement mortar influenced by the range of admixtures(CSA expansive addictive, CSA accelerator, gypsum, silica fume) ratio were investigated.

The vertical tensile stress, ${\sigma}_y$, in the contact zone between the overlay (mortar layer) and substratum (base concrete) can be the main cause of the failure phenomenon of overlaid concrete structures. The development of tensile stress, ${\sigma}_y$, due to external rainy condition was analytically investigated using finite element method. Rainfall intensity $(n_R\;=\;1/a,\;t_R\;=\;10min,\;60min)$, thickness of overlay (do=1,2,4,10 cm) and overlay material (CM,ECM,EM) were the main variables in the analyses. An equation was suggested with which the development of vertical tensile stress, ${\sigma}_y$, in the rainy condition could be determined. Using this equation, it is possible to select proper material properties and overlay thicknesses to prevent failure in the contact zone due to thermally transient condition caused by rainfall.

This paper investigates the manufacturing and fundamental quality characteristics of potassium magnesia phosphate-based non-cement high-volume fly ash repair mortar. To derive the optimal mix for non-cement mortar, the manufacturing characteristics were evaluated based on the magnesia ratio, and the mortar manufacturing characteristics were assessed with the fly ash mixture. Additionally, the non-cement magnesia repair mortar was produced considering the effects of fly ash mixture and basalt fiber. The evaluation results determined the optimal mix of non-cement magnesia repair mortar, and the feasibility was examined through workability and fundamental quality assessments. The optimal magnesia ratio was found to be P:M 1:0.5, with W/B at 30 %. It was also confirmed that mixing FA and basalt fiber improves fiber dispersion and workability. Even with over 50 % FA mixture, the target strength was achieved within six hours, with a flow increase of up to 18 % and a flexural strength decrease of about 1-2 MPa.

It is important to keep the distribution of the raw material mixture constant, in order to maximize the effect of the pre-mix type repair mortar, and it is also necessary to increase the performance of the mixer in order to minimize the deviation of the product. In this study, three kinds of mixer used in production sites were used to make repair mortar and the properties of each mortar were examined. As a result, it is confirmed to the difference in properties of pre-mix type repair mortar differ depending on the type of mixer, and the fluidized zone mixer showed relatively good results. In addition, it is preferable to set the mixing time to about 10 minutes to 15 minutes in order to ensure workability and optimum physical properties.

The present study prepared 13 mixes to examine fundamental mixture proportions of corrosion inhibitor repair mortars. The mortar mixes were classified into three groups according to the selected test variables which are the substitution level of polymer for Group 1, ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) and fly ash (FA) for Group 2, and corrosion inhibitor for Group 3. Based on the test results, the optimum substitution levels of GGBS and FA could be recommended as 10% and 20%, respectively, though 1-day strength of mortar significantly decreased with their substitution. Furthermore, the appropriate substitution level of corrosion inhibitor was considered to be less than 1.5%. The flexural strength of mortar tested was higher than the predictions obtained from ACI 318-11 equation. The shrinkage strain of mortar was also conservative after an age of around 10 days compared with the predictions of ACI 209.

폴리머 시멘트 모르타르(Polymer-Modified Cement Mortar, 이하, PCM으로 칭함)는 일반 시멘트 모르타르와 비교해서 접착성, 치밀성, 내약품성, 시공성등이 우수한 재료로, 콘크리트 구조물의 보수 보강에 필수불가결한 재료로 인식되고 있다. 그러나, 혼입된 폴리머는 유기물 재료로, 화재와 같은 고온을 받는 경우에는 무기계 재료인 일반 모르타르 및 콘크리트와는 또 다른 고온역에서의 성상을 보일 것으로 예상된다. 이로 인해, PCM으로 보수 보강된 건축물에 화재가 발생할 경우, 고온에서의 안전성 및 화재 후의 보수 보강 필요성에 대한 평가를 행할 필요가 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 평가시 기본적인 데이터로 활용될 수 있는 PCM의 고온노출시의 역학적 특성에 대한 검토방안으로, 기존의 실험조건 및 실험방법을 응용한 새로운 실험방법을 적용, 비교검토를 행하고, 고온영역에서의 PCM의 역학적 특성에 대해 고찰했다.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the flexural performance of reinforced concrete (RC) beams repaired with polymer mortar. The repaired and non-repaired 13th beams which was fabricated by considering repair position, repair depth, and curing age of polymer mortar as test variables were tested under three point loading. All specimens repaired in compressive and tensile zone did not fail due to interfacial failure between polymer mortar and concrete but failed when the strain of repaired mortar exceeded the ultimate tensile strain of polymer mortar. Maximum load of specimens repaired in compressive zone was similar to that of non-repaired specimen, reference specimen. Additionally, their ductility index was higher than that of reference specimen. On the other hand, specimens repaired in tensile zone failed very brittlely and have a lower ductility index than reference specimen. Nonlinear analysis by using OpenSees was performed to predict the behavior of RC beam repaired with polymer mortar. Two dimension frame element was used to simplify an analysis model and fiber model was applied to consider the material non-linearity. It was confirmed from the analysis results that nonlinear analysis properly predicts the behavior of specimens repaired in compressive zone and overestimates the behavior of specimens repaired in tensile zone.
