해안가에 건설되는 구조물 표면은 해풍에 의해 직접적인 영향을 받는다. 해풍에 섞여 날아오는 염분이 건축물 외부에 흡착하여 시간이 경과함에 따라 내부로 확산 이동하게 되어, 콘크리트 내부의 철근이 부식하게 된다. 따라서, 해안가 구조물의 비래염분에 대한 열화 예측을 보다 정확하게 조사하기 위해서는 실환경하에 작용하는 기상요인, 지형, 구조물의 형태 등 대상지역의 다양한 조건을 정밀하게 반영하여 정해야 할 필요가 있다. 풍향, 풍속, 온도, 습도등의 다양하게 변화하는 기상요인에서 각 요인에 따라 발생되는 비래염분량과의 상관성을 분석하기 위해서는 고정된 실험인자에 따른 지속적인 실험이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구는 비래염분 포집기 개발 및 인공비래염분 발생장치(이하, 인공장치) 개발과 장치 성능의 정확성 향상을 위한 기초 실험 실시에 목표를 하였고, 또한 개발된 비래염분 포집기를 실 환경에 설치하여 각 실험인자에 따른 실환경에서의 비래염분 포집량을 분석하고자 한다.

Airborne chlorides are transported to inland by sea wind to be attached to seashore concrete structure surface then penetrated into concrete structure members. Since the surface attached chloride amount are dependent on the amount of airborne chlorides, the prediction of distribution of airborne chlorides is important information in preventing chloride corrosion problems in seashore concrete structures. The prediction of surface chloride amount from airborne chlorides environment is extremely difficult than concrete directly in contact with seawater. In addition, their penetrating tendency is different from that of concrete immersed in seawater. In this study, properties of surface and penetrated chlorides under airborne chlorides environment are investigated. Concrete specimens were manufactured and exposed to marine environment for 3 years. The specimens were analyzed at the time durations of 1, 2, and 3 years to check surface chloride amount to penetrated chloride depth. The results revealed that there were certain differences according to surface roughness of concrete and with and without washing effect due to rainfalls. The evaluation results showed that penetrated chlorides depend on amount of airborne chlorides and duration of exposure. In addition, a notable tendency of having deeper chloride penetration and higher chloride content in concrete members under long-term exposure was observed.

Concrete structures immersed in seawater are exposed to uniform chloride concentration. However, seashore concrete structures are subjected to various airborne chlorides concentration depending on areas, distance from seashore, orientation of structures and wind direction etc. Therefore, structures which is not coming into direct contact with seawater are greatly affected by salt attack and those cases have been reported. This study intends to investigate salt attack by airborne chlorides in terms of the distance from the seashore based on the measurements conducted at 73 spots and 27 areas during 3 years in the Eastern, Western and Southern coasts of South Korea. Results revealed large regional variations of the salinity in coastal regions along with significant seasonal effects caused by seasonal winds. Moreover, the salinity is seen to diminish as the distance from the seashore increases at a rate corresponding to the function $y=ax^{-b}$. These results will be helpful to do the durability design and management of seashore structures.

Evaluation of the amount of chloride ion coming from the sea is very important in assessing the life expectancy of Reinforced Concrete structures. Developed in Japan, the incoming salt collector has been used to this day. Unfortunately, the incoming salt collector has had a bad reputation, which is caused by backward wind. Backward wind causes a reduction of the amount of salt collected in collector's gauze. The collector was developed to eliminate the effect of backward wind. Simulation test in the laboratory and site measurement were performed to determine the amount of incoming salt according to the height. The performance was verified through analytic and experimental methods.

The newly developed eight-directional collector was installed at five different locations in the coastal area after its functionality was verified through experiments. Based on the airborne chloride amount measured for one year, the distribution characteristics of airborne chlorides were examined by direction. In terms of direction, a large amount of airborne chlorides was collected, not only in the direction facing the coast but also in the opposite direction. The amount measured at effective three directions was 1.5 times that measured at non-effective three directions.

Reinforced concrete structures are damaged by concrete carbonation, salt attack, and sulfate attack. The evaluation of the amount of chloride ion from the sea is very important to assess the life expectancy of Reinforced Concrete structures. The incoming salt collector which is developed in Japan has been used until the present, Unfortunately, the incoming salt collector has had a bad reputation which is caused by backward wind. The wind from backward causes the reduction of the amount of collected salt in collector's gauze. The collector was developed for excluding the effect of backward wind. The performance of it was verified from analytic and experimental methods.

Steel structures of the seaside area are naturally led to surface corrosion due to incoming salt. Signature measures for this are to replace steel with steel material with a high corrosion-resistance and to block salt and other deteriorative factors beforehand through finishing work such as surface coating. However, the variety in steel materials, finishing type, and construction methods makes adhesive weight of incoming salt different depending on each type. For this research, measurement results derived from an enhancement experiment on artificial incoming salt adhesive to 4 steel finishing types and 2 material types identified a difference of adhesive weight by each sampler.

The amount of surface chlorides of architectural structure in incoming salt environment depends on the characteristics of distribution of incoming salt in atmosphere. Therefore, many researches are being conducted on deducting the correlation between incoming salt amount attached to the surface of real structure and that of atmosphere after quantitative measurement. However, in real environment, these studies are somewhat far fetched. That is because incoming salt in atmosphere are changed by various climatic conditions and in the case of the structures surface, attached incoming salt may be carried away due to the rainfall. Therefore, this study aims to draw an improved proportional relation between the amount of sodium chloride in atmosphere and that attached to the surface of architectural structures by measuring the amount attached to each architectural material using artificial incoming salt generator that can control various climatic variables that can be caused in real environment.

RC structure which is located at shoreline has more serious damages compared with inland structure, because it is directly exposed to chlorine ion which is called incoming salt. In the transmission of incoming salt, differences in transmitted volume of incoming salts could occur according to the influences of local shoreline topography which includes surrounding weather conditions, types of building placements, obstacles of wind tunnel etc. And therefore, for the application of boundary conditions for durable offshore structure design against the salt attack, comparative analysis through wind tunnel test and fluid value simulation are executed in order to investigate the moving and adhesion process of incoming salt to offshore structure.

염해는 철근 콘크리트 구조물의 주요 열화원인으로서 특히 수해양 부유식 건축물의 상부구조는 비래염분에 의한 피해에 노출되어 있고, 해수에 접하고 있는 함체는 다공질 콘크리트의 모세관으로 염수이온이 침투하므로 상당히 높은 수위의 열화 환경에 노출되어 있다고 분류할 수 있다. 본 연구는 해양에서 유입되는 비래염분량을 정량화하여 철근 콘크리트 구조물 뿐만아니라 강재 건자재의 장수명화를 꾀하는 기초자료를 구축하고자 하였다. 1년간에 걸쳐 측정된 비래염분유입 지역은 기존연구에서 조사된 1km 범위을 상당히 초과하고 있으며 그 량도 강재 발청농도를 탁월하게 상회하는 것으로 분석되었다.
