It is known that the Q/C(Quality Control) in the early age of portland cement concrete(PCC) pavement gives a huge effect on long term pavement performance. Thus, many studies regarding the construction of PCC pavement have focused on how to assure construction quality at the early age stage. Curing is one of the most important factor in Q/C of PCC pavement. Membrane curing that protects the evaporation of moisture by placing an impermeable layer on the slab surface is the most common practice for curing the PCC pavement. In order to improve the membrane curing practice, the rate of curing compound should be optimized. However, the optimum rate of curing compound considering Korean weather and environmental conditions has not been specified in the pavement construction specifications. In this study, a proper application rate was recommended in terms of minimizing evaporation with several full-scale tests where various rates of curing compound have been applied. Four test sites on the expressway were enlisted during the summer of 2002 and 2003. Application rates tested were in the range of $0. The rate of evaporation, the temperature pattern of the slab and the pulse velocity of concrete surface have been monitored at each test construction. The result from this study showed that the rate of current construction was approximately $160ml/m^2$ and that approximately $400ml/m^2$ of curing application was recommended as the proper rate for minimizing the moisture evaporation.

This study evaluated mechanical characteristics and performance of recycled concrete as a pavement material for use in low volume road. The recycled concrete was prepared by replacing a half of coarse aggregate with recycled coarse aggregate. Natural sand from a source was used as fine aggregate together with admixtures, such as plasticizer and fly ash (0.8% and 5% by wt. of total binder, respectively). From experimental evaluation. it was found that flexural strength. compressive strength, elastic modulus and fracture toughness of recycled concrete at 28 days were approximately $45kg/cm^2$, $250kg/cm^2$, $230,000kg/cm^2$ 및 $0.863 MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$. respectively. Long term strength and fracture toughness were improved significantly at the age of 6 months. In conclusion. mechanical properties of the recycled concrete were acceptable for use as concrete pavement materials in low-volume roads in rural and urban areas.

도로는 국내 물류를 담당하는 중요한 기반시설로 국내 경제성장의 중추적인 역할을 담당하고 있다. 특히, 1970년대 개통된 경부고속도로는 우리나라의 대동맥으로 산업 성장의 파급효과를 가져오는 기반이 되었고, 공학적인 차원에서도 도로 포장재료를 경험 및 과학적으로 분석하여 적용하는 계기로 도로공학발전의 초석이 되었다. 과거에 적용된 도로 포장재료는 기술자의 경험에 의존하여 배합설계가 진행되었으며, 중차량의 비중이 많은 지역은 강성포장을 적용하고, 상대적으로 중차량이 적은 구간은 연성포장을 적용하는 설계를 따랐다. 하지만, 강성포장을 대표하는 시멘트 콘크리트 포장은 시공상의 복잡함과 시멘트 콘크리트 특성상 강도발현을 위해서 일정기간 이상의 양생일수가 필요하므로, 도로건설의 인프라 구축이 시급한 지역에서는 사용의 제약이 따른다. 연성포장을 대표적하는 재료로는 아스팔트 콘크리트 포장을 들 수 있다. 강성포장보다는 상대적으로 시공상의 편리함과 일정기간의 양생이 필요하지 않아 도로 포장재료로서 그 적용성이 우수하다. 과거에는 아스팔트 콘크리트 포장의 종류가 단순화되어 표층, 기층에 대표되는 몇몇 혼합물이 도로 포장재료로 사용되었다. 도로공학의 학문적 발달과 함께 도로포장의 전반적인 기술이 향상되고 있다. 과거의 도로 기능은 국가 경제발전을 위한 산업용 원자재의 운반이 주요 기능을 담당하고 있는 반면, 국민의 경제적 수준이 증대되고 자가용의 보급이 보편화되면서 도로 이용의 주체가 국민 개개인으로 변화되고 있고, 그 요구조건도 다양화되고 있다. 이에 발맞추어 도로공학의 기술적 향상으로 다양한 기능을 발휘할 수 있는 도로포장재료가 개발되고 있으며, 대표적인 제품으로는 배수성 포장, 반강성 포장, 보수성 포장, 탄성 포장, 저소음 포장 등이 있다. 본 연구에서는 기능성 포장의 하나인 저소음 포장의 특성 중 생산성능을 평가하였다. 생산성능이란 저소음포장을 현장 플랜트에서 생산하였을 경우의 특성을 분석하는 과정으로, 실내 실험으로 최적화된 재료의 배합은 이상적인 조건을 적용하여 결정된 것으로 입고된 현장 골재 및 생산 플랜트 조건에 따른 그 배합 및 물성이 변동을 가져올 수 있다. 특히, 저소음 포장은 기존의 아스팔트 포장과 달리 적용되는 골재, 아스팔트의 재료가 고성능을 발휘하기 위하여 특수한 재료를 적용해야 한다. 배합설계에서도 개립도 아스팔트 혼합물에 적용되는 내구성분석 절차를 따라야 하므로, 실내 배합설계 혼합물과 현장 생산 혼합물간의 물리적 특성에 차이를 나타낼 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 실내 및 현장 혼합물의 전반적인 물리적 특성의 차이를 분석하여 저소음 포장의 현장 생산성능을 확인하였다. 분석요소로는 혼합물의 기초물성면에서는 밀도, 공극률을 분석하였으며, 실내 내구성면에서는 마샬안정도, 잔류안정도를 분석하여 실내 및 현장 혼합물의 물성차이를 분석하였다. 기초물성을 평가할 수 있는 밀도와 공극률에서는 생산 현장 혼합물이 실내 혼합물 보다 높은 밀도와 낮은 공극률을 나타내고 있으며, 이에 상관하여 강도특성을 분석할 수 있는 마샬안정도도 생산 현장 혼합물이 다소 높은 강도를 발휘하였다. 또한, 수분에 대한 안정성을 평가하는 인자인 잔류 안정도에서는 실내 및 현장 혼합물 모두 우수한 성능을 발휘하였다.

The rapid economic development induced the massive road constructions, becoming bigger and high-speed of the vehicles. However, it brings lots of social problems, such as air pollutions, traffic noise and vibration. Special concrete block for the base course of asphalt pavement is needed to decrease traffic noise such as tire's explosive and vehicles sound, applying Helmholtz Resonators theory to asphalt pavement. If it is applied to the area where it happens considerable noise such as a junction, the street of a housing complex and a residential street, it is one of alternative methods to solve the social requirements of noise problems. This research examines couple of laboratory tests for the sound absorption effect of the concrete block and the base concrete block for quiet pavement. The specimens, which is fixed hall-size, space, depth as the condition of this research, are analysed of noise reduction effect using different noise levels of vehicles. Judging from the analysis of test results with vehicle noise volume, measurement distance, a form and size of the hall using the base concrete block, the use of special concrete base and quiet asphalt surface showed a good alternative solution for decreasing traffic noise level, from 4dB to 9dB.

This study focuses on evaluating the applicability of an acryl based polymer concrete to the thin bridge deck pavements. The acryl concrete developed in this study is composed of Methyl Methacrylate(MMA) resin, benzol peroxide and fillers. To study the effects of the types and amounts of the components on the physical characteristics of the acryl concrete, viscosity, compressive strength and bending tests were conducted. The optimum mixture design was then determined based on the testing results. Several different types of laboratory tests, such as water and chlorine ion penetration tests, shrinkage and thermal coefficients tests, and tensile bonding strength tests were performed for the optimum acryl concrete and conventional cement concrete. The testing results show that water and chroline ion resistance, bonding strength between acryl and cement concrete and crack resistance of the acryl concrete is better than those of the conventional cement concrete. There are shortcomings that the conventional acryl concrete has a higher shrinkage and thermal coefficients. However, it was confirmed that to use newly developed rubberized MMA resin in this study reduces the crack resistance with substantially increased ductility.
