The rate of carbonation is usually low in the natural environment due to the low $CO_2$ concentration in the atmosphere. Therefore, investigation of carbonation is usually conducted under accelerated testing conditions so as to speed up the process. This study is to predict carbonation progress by mathematical model, based on the diffusions of $CO_2$ and its reaction with $Ca(OH)_2$ in carbonation progressing region, in the atmosphere. To predict of carbonation progress in the atmosphere, we adopted a diffusion coefficient of $CO_2$ that agreed well the experimental value obtained by the accelerated carbonation test. Consequently the model can predict the rate of carbonation of concrete exposed in the atmosphere regardless of finishing materials.

Many researches have been conducted to evaluate the performance of modified asphalt concrete mixtures. The research was conducted to estimate the laboratory mechanical characteristics of Elvaloy-modified asphalt concrete mixture. To achieve its intended objective, indirect tensile test and resilient modulus test were performed. The rest results revealed that indirect tensile strengths and resilient moduli of the Elvaloy-modified asphalt concrete mixture were higher than those of the conventional dense-graded. As a result, within the limits of the tests conducted in this research, it is predicted that the performance and stability of the Elvaloy-modified asphalt concrete mixture are better than that of the conventional dense-graded one.

한탄강홍수조절댐의 형식은 기본설계(TK)시 지형 및 지질조건, 재료원 조건, 댐 안정성, 여수로설치조건, 친환경조건, 경제성 등을 종합적으로 고려하여 콘크리트중력심댐으로 결정하였으며, 콘크리트 중력심댐 축조를 위한 공법으로 재래식 타설공법과, Layer 타설공법을 가설비 규모, 시공성, 공기 등을 비교 검토하여 Layer 타설공법(R.C.D)을 채택하였다. Layer 타설공법은 일정 물량에 이상에 대해서는 일반 콘크리트 블록식 타설공법과 비교하여 경제성과 시공성 등이 양호하다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 사업 진행중인 한탄강홍수조절댐을 통한 R.C.D공법과 일반 블록식 콘크리트 타설 방법을 비교 분석하고자 한다.

일반콘크리트 기둥을 대상으로 콘크리트 피복두께와 단면크기를 변수로 하여 내화성능을 평가하였다. 피복두께가 늘어남에 따라 내화성능시간도 다소 늘어 피복두께와 내화성능은 비례적 관계에 있는 것으로 나타났다. 단면크기가 커짐에 따라 실험체의 열용량이 증가하여 내화성능이 좋아질 것으로 예상하였으나 폭렬의 영향으로 인하여 단면크기에 따른 내화성능의 변화는 큰 의미가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 콘크리트 기둥의 내화성능은 폭렬 여부에 의해 크게 지배되는 것으로 판단된다.

Composite construction of precast concrete and cast-in-place concrete is currently used for the modular construction. In this case, the use of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) could be beneficial for precast concrete. However, the shear strength of such composite members (SFRC and cast-in-place concrete) is not clearly defined in current design codes. In the present study, steel fiber composite beam tests were conducted to evaluate the effect of steel fibers on the composite members. The test variables are the area ratio of SFRC and shear reinforcement ratio. The test results showed that when minimum horizontal shear reinforcement was used, the shear strength of composite beams increased in proportion to the area ratio of steel fiber reinforced concrete. However, because of the steel fiber, the composite beams were susceptible to horizontal shear failure. Thus, minimum horizontal shear reinforcement is required for SFRC composite beams.

This study was performed to enhance mechanical properties of high-early-strength concrete using regulated-set cement for early traffic opening with various mixtures. Restraint of moisture and thermal movements of concrete pavement in actual field conditions, by external or internal restraining factors, generates tensile stresses which introduce microcracks and thus reduce the mechanical properties of concrete. Fiber reinforcement of concrete is an effective approch to the control of microcrack and crack development under tensile stresses. Three different types of regulated-set cement which recently have been used in Korea and two different types of fiber were adopted. Fibers were added and their mixtures are compared with plain high-early-strength concrete mixture. From the test results, fiber reinforced concrete was increased mechanical properties of high-early-strength concrete using regulated-set cement than the plain concrete.

Latex modified concrete (LMC) exhibits improved material properties including high tensile strength and durability compared with conventional concrete, and hence LMC has been used as protective layers over the bridge deck slabs to increase their service life with underlying assumption of excellent bond behavior between the LMC overlay and the concrete substrate. In this study, the effect of the primary parameters of the concrete substrate (i.e., shrinkage, stiffness and cracking capacity) as well as the LMC overlay thickness on the probability of cracking of the bridge deck slabs using LMC overlays was investigated by carrying out the finite element analysis that simulated the bond behavior of LMC overlays on normal strength concrete (NSC) and HPC bridge deck slabs. Based on the results of the numerical analysis, it is concluded that the relatively high shrinkage strains and stiffness of HPC slabs can increase its probability of cracking in bridge deck slabs using LMC overlay.

This paper is a basic study to improve floor impact noise of reinforced concrete slabs. Considering the case where thickness differences occur due to construction, changes in sound insulation characteristics were analyzed when the cross section of a reinforced concrete slab was restored with mortar. The houses subject to analysis were divided into two types, 84 type and 59 type, with different floor plans. When pre-mortaring was done with heavy mortar to restore the cross section on the reinforced concrete slab, the case was when pre-mortaring was done with the reinforced concrete slab alone and with general mortar. Compared with, the difference between vibration acceleration level and sound pressure was measured. As a result of measuring the vibration acceleration level of the slab after pouring the mortar, the CS mortar was 66.4 dB and the ES mortar was 66.1 dB at 84 type 63 Hz, which was more than 2 dB lower than that of regular mortar. In addition, compared to the reinforced concrete slab alone, CS mortar was reduced by 5.5 dB and ES mortar was reduced by 4.6 dB, showing relatively excellent values. As for the floor impact sound pressure, the 84B type was similar at 63 Hz for CS mortar and general mortar at 67.3 dB, and the reduction compared to the reinforced concrete slab alone was 3.6 dB for CS mortar, 2.7 dB for ES mortar, and 2.7 dB for general mortar was reduced by 1.4 dB. By pouring mortar to compensate for the thickness of the reinforced concrete slab, the vibration acceleration level and floor impact noise were reduced, and when a heavy mortar using copper smelting slag fine aggregate was used, relatively excellent performance was found.
