The purpose of this paper is to find out quantitatively the relationship between the surface shape and the mechanical properties of corroded reinforcement. Three-dimensional measurements were carried out on the surface shape of variously corroded reinforcements and parameters expressing the characteristics of the shape, which included the maximum decrement of sectional area of reinforcement, its distribution along the axis. It was investigated that which parameters could correspond to the mechanical properties of corroded reinforcement and it was confirmed that the maximum decrement of sectional area of reinforcement could express the mechanical properties most appropriately. Finally, this paper proposes a constitutive model of corroded reinforcement for analyzing the structural behavior of reinforced concrete structures considering the localized corrosion of by finite element method.

국내외적으로 철근부식에 영향을 받아 콘크리트가 변하는 특성을 실험적으로 연구한 논문이 많이 발표되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이들 기존 연구에서 시행된 부식촉진방법, 주로 전기적인 방법을 다양한 실험을 통하여 최적방법을 찾고자 하는데 있다. 기존의 연구 중에는 "전위차 부식촉진법을 이용한 철근 콘크리트의 내부식성 예측을 위한 새로운 기법 연구"에서는 20V 직류전원장치를 NaCl용액에 직류회로를 구성한 후 양극과 음극의 전위차를 이용 전류량을 측정한 방법이 있었으며, 철근부식을 일으키는 많은 원인은 염소이온에 의한 것이다. 철근의 부식반응은 전기화학적 반응이다. 부식콘크리크 실험에 많이 이용하고 있는 자연전위법, 분극저항법, 콘크리트저항법들이 있다.(중략)

철근의 부식은 철근 콘크리트 구조물에 있어서 심각한 열화현상을 유발할 수 있으며 최근 들어 이로 인한 피해가 많이 보고되고 있다. 이와 같은 부식의 억제방안 중 철근에 직접 에폭시를 도막하는 것이 가장 효과적인 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 이 경우 에폭시 도막에 따른 부착성능의 저하가 우려되는 바 본 연구는 철근부식방지를 위해 에폭시를 도막한 철근의 부착특성을 고찰하기 위해 수행되었다. 주된 변수는 콘크리트 압축강도, 부착길이, 에폭시 도막두께이며 각 변수별로 부착특성의 변화를 관찰하였고 이를 통해 에폭시도막 철근의 사용성을 검토하였다. 본 실험결과에 기초하여 부착강도 예측식을 제안하였고 실험결과와 예측치를 비교하였다.

플로팅 건축용 콘크리트 구조물은 부식환경에 노출되어 매립된 철근의 부식에 따른 구조물의 내구성능에 문제가 발생하게 된다. 철근 부식에 의한 내구성이 저하되는 문제의 여러 효과적인 해결방법 중 하나로 철근 코팅 기법이 있으며, 철근의 용융아연도금시 표면에 용융아연층이 형성되어 철근을 보호하는 장점이 있으나 콘크리트와의 부착 성능에 대한 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 플로팅 건축용 콘크리트 구조물의 철근 겹이음에 따른 거동 특성연구를 수행하였다.

Reinforced Concrete structures are constructed under the basic assumption of perfect bonding between steel and concrete. The corrosion of steel in the reinforced concrete columns results in the excessive cracks and gradual deterioration of concrete between steel and concrete. The cyclic loading test was conducted with the three corrosion rates in the laboratory. Throughout this test, it is investigated a bond behavior of reinforced concrete columns under a steel corrosion. Main variables of the test are a corrosion of steel reinforcement and a level of stress.

Applying the calculated cross-sectional reduction due to the corroded rebar investigated in the field to the numerical analysis model, the damage pattern and delamination of concrete in the field showed a tendency relatively similar to the numerical analysis results. It was analyzed that when the expansion pressure due to corrosion of the reinforcing bar is greater than the tensile stress of the concrete, cracks are generated and the concrete cover can be fracture. As a result of this study, the correlation between the corrosion rate of reinforcing bars and the crack occurrence of the concrete cover of the subway box structure was verified based on the numerical analysis and field test results. To prevent rebar corrosion, the corrosion rate can be reduced by applying rust prevention to the reinforcing bar and changing the material. In the case of exposed to a corrosive environment, the tensile strength of the concrete is improved by adjusting the concrete compressive strength to secure durability against the expansion pressure caused by the corroded rebar.

염화물 및 방청제가 함유된 철근 콘크리트의 부식특성을 마크로 셀 부식측정 방법인 갈바닉 전류 측정과 마이크로 셀 부식측정 방법인 선형분극 측정법 및 교류 임피던스법을 이용하여 염화물 및 방청제의 영향을 평가하였다. 마크로/마이크로 셀 부식측정기 Calcium Nitrite 방청제가 첨가된 시험체의 경우 갈바닉 전류 측정결과 낮은 전류값을 유지하였고, 교류 임피던스 측정결과 분극저항의 감소가 나타나지 않았으므로, 방청제의 첨가가 콘크리트내 철근의 부동태 피막을 보호하여 부식저항성을 향상시킴을 알 수 있었다.

Steel corrosion is one of the most critical deteriorations in concrete structures due to the problems associated with both durability and structural safety issues. For protection of steel against corrosion problems, researches to improve concrete durability and steel corrosion protection such as rebar coating by hot-dip galvanizing steel have been carried out. This study was performed to quantitatively evaluate anti-corrosion and structural performance of concrete structures reinforced with hot-dip galvanizing steel rebar. Preliminary tests for several metal coatings such as zinc, aluminum, and their alloy (Zn 45% + AL 55%) were performed. After evaluation of corrosive characteristics, Zn was selected for the coating material and the corrosion behaviors in Zn-coated steel were evaluated in various conditions. Furthermore, tensile and adhesive strengths were evaluated for the normal and the hot-dip galvanized steel. The crack patterns and structural behaviors of RC specimens with the normal and coated steel were investigated. Also, corrosion characteristics including corrosion in various coating metal and potential change in metal with notch were evaluated. Structural performances of tensile and adhesive strengths as well as RC beam behavior under flexural/shear loading were evaluated. The test and evaluation results showed that the applicability of hot-dip galvanized steel rebar can be used as corrosion resistant reinforcements for RC structures.

Steel corrosion in concrete is a main cause of deterioration and early failure of concrete structures. A novel integration of electromagnetic heat induction and infrared (IR) thermography is proposed for nondestructive detection of steel corrosion in concrete, by taking advantage of the difference in thermal characteristics of corroded and non-corroded steel. This paper focuses on experimental investigation of the concept. An inductive heater is developed to remotely heat the embedded steel from concrete surface, which is integrated with an IR camera. Concrete samples with different cover depths are prepared. Each sample is embedded with a single rebar in the middle, resulting an identical cover depth from the front and the back surfaces, which enable heat induction from one surface and IR imaging from the other simultaneously. The impressed current (IC) method is adopted to induce accelerated corrosion on the rebar. IR video images are recorded during the entire heating and cooling periods. The test results demonstrate a clear difference in thermal characteristics between corroded and non-corroded samples. The corroded sample shows higher rates of heating and cooling than those of the non-corroded sample. This study demonstrates a potential for nondestructive detection of rebar corrosion in concrete.

Recently, it is really concerned about corrosion and aging of reinforced concrete bridges. Corrosional steel reinforcing in concrete affects not only safety of bridges structure but also bending strength of reinforced concrete's member. Rate of corrosion, characteristic of bending strength, and economical evaluation aren't clear in reinforced concrete, considering performance evaluation. The purpose of study is as follows. It studies about ability of resistance's strength and cost of life cycle according to reduction of steel reinforcing's corrosion. Moreover, it shows calculating formula of bending strength with corrosion of current rate and exactly evaluates about the rest life at corrosional reinforced concrete bridges.
