교량 바닥판은 차량하중과 제설염화물 등의 다양한 유해환경에 직접 노출되어 있어, 교면 포장의 손상과 더불어 내부 콘크리트 바닥판의 열화로 진전되는 경우가 자주 발생되고 있다. 고속도로상에 손상이 발생한 교량에 대한 조사결과, 교면포장이 건전한 것으로 보이는 부위에서도 포장하면에서는 콘크리트 바닥판 상면의 손상이 광범위하게 진행되는 사례가 있다. 따라서 고속도로상의 교량 32개소를 선정하여 노면측정차량에 의한 조사와 차량탑재형 레이더에 의한 조사를 실시하였다. 그 결과, 외관상 양호해 보이는 곳에서도 포장내부에서는 손상발생가능성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 바닥판의 손상평가는 외관조사와 더불어 레이더 조사를 병행하는 것이 바람직한 것으로 판단된다.

PURPOSES : In this study, systematic road snow-removal capabilities were estimated based on previous historical data for road-snowremoval works. The final results can be used to aid decision-making strategies for cost-effective snow-removal works by regional offices. METHODS : First, road snow-removal historical data from the road snow-removal management system (RSMS), operated by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, were employed to determine specific characteristics of the snow-removal capabilities by region. The actual owned amount and actual used amount of infrastructure were analyzed for the past three years. Second, the regional offices were classified using K-means clustering into groups "close" to one another. Actual used snow-removal infrastructure was determined from the number of snow-removal working days. Finally, the correlation between the de-icing materials used and infrastructure was analyzed. Significant differences were found among the amounts of used infrastructure depending on snowfall intensity for each regional office during the past three years. RESULTS:The results showed that the amount of snow-removal infrastructure used for low heavy-snowfall intensity did not appear to depend on the amount of heavy snowfall, and therefore, high variation is observed in each area. CONCLUSIONS:This implies that the final analysis results will be useful when making decisions on snow-removal works.

This paper describes an optimal design of electric snow melting mat on vulnerable walk zone. In order to design an optimal electric power of snow melting mat and protect pedestrians with a nonslip mat, with considering protection of environmental pollution from abusing of the de-icing salts added calcium chloride. We analyzed nine snow melting mats through verification experiment in the condition of $-5^{\circ}C$, depending on three different kinds of heating material, electric heating cable, carbon heating film and carbon textile film. As a consequence, the $150W/m^2$ carbon textile film mat for snow melting was identified as an optimal power input and functional performance for pedestrians' safety on vulnerable walk zone. It is expected that the $150W/m^2$ carbon textile film mat would be useful to reduce slip down accidents by human error.

When deterioration of concrete is observed in a structure, it is highly desirable to determine the cause of such deterioration. Only by understanding the cause can an appropriate repair strategy be implemented to address both the cause and the symptom. In colder climates, bridge deck deterioration is often caused by chlorides from de-icing salts, which penetrate the concrete and depassivate the embedded reinforcement, causing corrosion. Bridge decks can also suffer from other deterioration mechanisms, such as alkali-silica reaction, freeze-thaw, and shrinkage. There is a need for a comprehensive and integrative system to help with the inspection and evaluation of concrete bridge deck deterioration before decisions are made on the best way to repair it. The purpose of this research was to develop a model to help with the diagnosis of concrete bridge deck deterioration that integrates the symptoms observed during an inspection, various deterioration mechanisms, and the probability of their occurrence given the available data. The model displays the diagnosis result as the probability that one of four deterioration mechanisms, namely shrinkage, corrosion of reinforcement, freeze-thaw and alkali-silica reaction, is at fault. Sensitivity analysis was performed to determine which probabilities in the model require refinement. Two case studies are included in this investigation.

Commonly used concrete in general, consists of cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and water. Natural river sand is the most commonly used material as fine aggregate in concrete. One of the important requirements of concrete is that it should be durable under certain conditions of exposure. The durability of concrete is defined as its ability to resist weathering action, chemical attack or any other process of deterioration. Durable concrete will retain its original form, quality and serviceability when exposed to its environment. Deterioration can occur in various forms such as alkali aggregate expansion, freeze-thaw expansion, salt scaling by de-icing salts, shrinkage, attack on the reinforcement due to carbonation, sulphate attack on exposure to ground water, sea water attack and corrosion caused by salts. Addition of admixtures may control these effects. In this paper, an attempt has been made to replace part of fine aggregate by tailing material and part of cement by fly ash to improve the durability of concrete. The various durability tests performed were chemical attack tests such as sulphate attack, chloride attack and acid attack test and water absorption test. The concrete blend with 35% Tailing Material (TM) in place of river sand and 20% Fly Ash (FA) in place of OPC, has exhibited higher durability characteristics.

OBJECTIVES : This is a basic research for the domestic production of airport-airside deicers. This research selected basic materials for deicers appropriate for the pavement of domestic airports by evaluating the deicing performances of basic materials used in international-standard airport deicers and their impacts on pavements. METHODS : Laboratory investigation was conducted to evaluate the asphalt surface tensile strength, concrete scaling impact, ASR impact, and deicing performances of sodium formate (NaFm), potassium formate (KFm), sodium acetate (NaAc), and potassium acetate (KAc), which are the basic de-icing materials commonly used at international airports, approved by the FAA. In addition, the analyses were also performed on the airside deicer urea, which is currently used in domestic airports. RESULTS : Laboratory investigation confirmed that sodium formate, potassium formate, sodium acetate, and potassium acetate had superior surface tensile strength, concrete scaling impact, and deicing performance compared to airside urea, but they also had greater impacts on concrete ASR. Among these materials, sodium formate had the best asphalt surface tensile strength, concrete scaling impact, and deicing performance, while also having the greatest impact on ASR; hence, mitigation plans for ASR were needed, if it were to be used as airport-airside deicer. CONCLUSIONS : It is necessary to consider additional additives to prevent ASR of concrete pavements when developing airport-airside deicers using sodium formate, potassium formate, sodium acetate, and potassium acetate.

RC 교량의 손상발생 중 많은 부분을 차지하고 있는 바닥판은 동절기에 제설제 사용에 따라 콘크리트의 동결융해에 대한 내력저하와 표면열화, 심한 스켈링(Scaling)발생으로 상부 아스콘 포장층을 손상시키고 내부의 철근 부식을 가속화시켜 교량의 공용성을 저하시키는 주 요인으로 작용하고 있다. 이에따라 교량 바닥판은 우수나 제설제로 부터 콘크리트 표면의 보호를 위해 침투식 또는 도막식 방수재를 시공하여왔다. 본 연구에서는 교량 상부 포장층의 열화가 발생된 고속도로 교량을 대상으로 바닥판에서 채취한 코어를 통해 아스콘 포장층과 하부 콘크리트 바닥판의 상태를 조사한 결과 콘크리트 바닥판에 시공된 교면방수층에서 도막의 손상이나 발수성저하로 인해 우수나 제설제의 침투를 일차적으로 방지하지 못해 열화가 일어나는 것으로 나타나고 있어 교면방수를 위해 사용되는 재료의 성능평가와 시공에 대해 보다 많은 연구와 검증이 필요한 것으로 나타났다.

Chloride penetration is among the main causes of corrosion initiation in reinforced concrete (RC) structures producing premature degradations. Weather and exposure conditions directly affect chloride ingress mechanisms and therefore the operational service life and safety of RC structures. Consequently, comprehensive chloride ingress models are useful tools to estimate corrosion initiation risks and minimize maintenance costs for RC structures placed under chloride-contaminated environments. This paper first presents a coupled thermo-hydro-chemical model for predicting chloride penetration into concrete that accounts for realistic weather conditions. This complete numerical model takes into account multiple factors affecting chloride ingress such as diffusion, convection, chloride binding, ionic interaction, and concrete aging. Since the complete model could be computationally expensive for long-term assessment, this study also proposes model simplifications in order to reduce the computational cost. Long-term chloride assessments of complete and reduced models are compared for three locations in France (Brest, Strasbourg and Nice) characterized by different weather and exposure conditions (tidal zone, de-icing salts and salt spray). The comparative study indicates that the reduced model is computationally efficient and accurate for long-term chloride ingress modeling in comparison to the complete one. Given that long-term assessment requires larger climate databases, this research also studies how climate models may affect chloride ingress assessment. The results indicate that the selection of climate models as well as the considered training periods introduce significant errors for mid- and long- term chloride ingress assessment.

본 연구는 동결융해, 염해 및 중성화가 복합적으로 작용하는 콘크리트 구조물의 내구성능을 평가하기 위하여 일반강도 콘크리트를 대상으로 동결수를 달리하여 동결융해 시험을 실시함으로서 염해와 동결융해 복합작용에 의한 콘크리트의 열화를 평가하였고, 염해, 동결융해 및 중성화의 세가지 열화가 복합적으로 발생되는 복합열화에 대해서는 적절한 평가방법이 부재하여 동결수에 따른 동결융해 시험 후의 시험체에 대하여 중성화 촉진시험을 실시함으로서 복합열화에 의한 콘크리트 내구성능 저하 특성을 평가하고자 하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 동결수의 종류나 물-결합재비 수준과 무관하게 고로슬래그미분말을 사용한 배합의 경우 염해와 동결융해가 동시에 복합적으로 발생되는 환경에서도 우수한 저항성능을 보이는 결과를 나타내므로 동결융해를 포함한 복합열화 환경에서 충분한 내구성 확보를 위해서는 최소한의 설계기준강도의 확보와 고로슬래그미분말 등 적절한 시멘트 결합재의 선정이 무엇보다 중요하다는 결론을 얻었다.

사회기반시설의 장래유지 관리비용 추정은 불확실한 미래를 다루기 때문에 신뢰성 높은 파손예측모델의 구축이 매우 중요하다. 하지만, 지자체에서는 예산, 인력, 파손예측모델의 필요성 등에 대한 인식부족으로 인해 기반시설의 정확한 파손예측모델 개발이 어려운 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 베이지안 마르코프 혼합해저드 모델을 활용하여 일반국도 아스팔트 도로포장의 균열률에 대한 지역별 기대수명을 추정하였다. 또한 정확한 기대수명 추정을 위하여 교통량, 축하중, 포장강도, 기후, 제설제사용량 등의 환경변수를 적용하여 추정결과에 대한 신뢰성을 확보하고자 하였다. 분석결과, 지역별로 최소 13.09년에서 최대 19.61년의 기대수명이 추정되었다. 본 연구결과를 활용할 경우, 지역적 파손특성이 고려된 신뢰성 높은 장래 유지관리비용의 추정이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.
