The temperature crack of concrete structure is caused by the phenomenon which the concrete volume is restricted in the inside or outside part due th the temperature variations induced by the hydration heat of cement. And mass concrete structures are weak in temperature crack. Seongdeok multi-purpose dam is gravity dam which is being constructed in Cheongsong-gun, Gyeonsangbuk-do. Upstream cofferdam was constructed to examine the temperature crack due to hydration heat and to decide the height of placement. Therefore this study performed the hydration heat analysis of Seongdeok upstream coffer dam to analyze the hydration heat according to different height of placement and to compare with measured results.

매스콘크리트에서는 수화열에 의하여 유발된 높은 온도가 열응력을 일으키는 원인이 되며 구속의 정도에 따라 인장응력이 발생되어 균열이 발생하게 된다. 따라서, 매스콘크리트 타설시 시멘트의 수화열에 의한 균열이 심각한 문제가 된다. 본 연구에서는 매스콘크리트 기초 및 교각구조에 대한 수화열 실험을 통해 온도분포 및 변형분포를 측정하고 이에 대한 온도 및 열응력 해석을 통해 매스콘크리트에 대한 수화열 특성을 규명하였다.

This paper describes the methods to propose the optimal material properties and construction steps that prevent cracks due to the thermal stresses induced by the hydration heat under the construction of the concrete underpass structures. To achieve the goal of this study, the heat transfer theories were employed and the three-dimensional finite element model of the underpass structure was developed and used for the structural analyses. If the volume of the concrete member that is placed at one time is significantly large, the member is assumed to be the mass concrete and is easy to induce cracks. In order to minimize the cracks during the construction, two different methods can be utilized: one is to arrange the construction steps optimally and the other is to change the materials to reduce the probability of the crack occurrence. In this study, the analyses were performed by considering the changes in material properties with time, the characteristics of the hydration heat generation for cements and admixtures, the volume of the concrete placement at one time, and the environmental conditions.

매스 콘크리트 구조물에서는 콘크리트 타설 후 시멘트의 수화열로 인한 온도응력에 의해서 온도균열의 발생 가능성이 매우 높다. 따라서, 매스 콘크리트 시공시, 온도균열을 구조물의 내구성 관점에서 최대한 억제시킬 필요가 있다. 최근에는 국내에서도 단위시멘트량이 많은 배합을 이용하는 고강도 콘크리트 구조물의 시공이 증가되고 있다. 이와 같은 매스 콘크리트 구조물은 단위시멘트량이 많기 때문에 부재내 수화열에 의한 온도의 상승 속도가 빠르기 때문에 시공에 앞서 사전에 설계, 재료 및 시공 측면에서 온도균열 제어 대책을 검토할 필요가 있다.(중략)

The thermal stresses due to hydration heat in massive concrete structures are affected by ambient temperature and placing concrete temperature. It is needed to predict the thermal stresses considering ambient temperature and placing concrete temperature. In this study, hydration heat analyses of coping were carried out. After the maximum tensile stress was occurred at 2,75 days the crack index was increased. Therefore the possibility of crack occurrence was rare. The possibility of crack occurrence can be reduced by placing concrete temperature drop. Therefore some method to drop the placing concrete temperature may be effective to reduce the possibility of crack occurrence.

A total of 6 stepwise constructions were made for building the floating mass concrete foundation. The optimal curing strategies and specialized construction guidelines were adoptively extracted from the 1.5m cube mock-up test prior to the main concrete work. Two different thermal crack index(TCI) calculations from current construction manual exhibit relatively low values as comparing the measured temperature data. This implies that the hydration-induced cracking could be developed in parts of concrete mass. However, the controversial phenomenons in reality were observed. No significant surface cracks are detected at the successive construction stages. Thereby, this paper raises the question regarding on the existence of characteristic length with varying size and shape of a target specimen which are missing in the current construction manual. The isothermal core area and high thermal gradient area in the edge volume should be identified and be introduced to TCI calculation for the purpose of an accuracy.

Fluosilicate salts based hydration heat reducer(SWP-HR), used in this study, is composed of fluosilicate salts, soluble silica, aromatic polymer condensate and nitrate salt based inorganic compound with latent heat property. Effects of SWP-HR addition on the hydration heat and anti-crack property of cement mortar were investigated. Adiabatic hydration temperature and drying shrinkage length of SWP-HR added cement mortar had a tendency to decrease compared to those of cement mortar without SWP-HR addition. Also, it was confirmed through crack pattern experiment of plate-form specimen for elucidating crack-reducing characteristic that anti-crack property of SWP-HR added cement mortar was improved.

Low heat concrete using strontium hydroxide based latent heat material was manufactured in ready-mixed concrete batcher plant and its fundamental properties were tested. As a result of B/P test, its applicability to the construction site was verified. After B/P test, low heat concrete using strontium hydroxide based latent heat material was applied to the real construction site of bridge footing. Through the analysis and the actual measurement of the hydration heat of the concrete footing, the reduction effect of hydration heat and thermal crack was confirmed.

본 논문에서는 해상 기초 교각 매스 콘크리트의 수화열 저감 방안을 다루었다. 저발열 콘크리트, Mesh형 거푸집 공법 등에 대한 실험을 수행하여 각각의 수화열 저감효과를 평가하였다. 현장 실험은 사용 시멘트와 거푸집의 종류, 거푸집의 사용 면수에 따라 총 4 type으로 구성하였으며, 이에 대한 실험 결과와 유한 요소 해석 결과를 비교, 검증하여 최종적인 수화열 저감 성능을 도출하고자 하였다. 실험을 통해, 저발열 시멘트와 유로폼을 사용하는 것이 수화열 저감을 위해 효과적인 방법으로 판명되었으나 추가 공사비의 발생으로 효율성이 떨어질 것으로 판단된다. 또한 Mesh형 거푸집 적용 면 수와 온도 상승 저감 효과는 비례하는 것을 알 수 있었지만 내 외부 온도차가 다소 크게 나타나 수화열에 의한 균열 발생 확률면에서는 다소 불리하게 나타났다. 그러나 실험 단계에서 생략된 양생과 관리를 통하여 균열의 저감효과를 거둘 수 있을 것으로 판단되며, 추가적으로 거푸집 해체 단계를 생략함으로 공기단축 측면에서 유리할 것으로 판단된다.
