This study aimed to design the accelerated life testing (ALT) of concrete, which stimulating the special natural environment maximumly. Its evaluation indexes, such as dynamic elastic modulus, mass and ultrasonic velocity were measured, and the variation of relative mass and relative dynamic elastic modulus of concrete were studied. Meanwhile, the microanalysis method was used. Moreover, an exploratory application of the stochastic approach, the Weibull distribution and the lognormal distribution, were made to assess the durability of concrete structures. The results show that the ALT for simulating natural environment is more close to the service process of concrete structure under actual conditions; The relative dynamic elastic modulus can be used as the dominant durability evaluation parameters, because it is more sensitive to the environmental factors compared with the relative quality evaluation parameters; In the course of the concrete deterioration, the destruction of the salt freezing cycle is the dominant factor, supplemented by other factors; Both of those two stochastic approaches can be used to evaluate the reliability of concrete specimens under the condition of ALT; By comparison, The lognormal distribution method is better to describe the reliability process.

Service life assessments which do not include the synergy between mechanical and environmental loading are neglecting a factor that can have a significant impact on structural safety and durability assessment. The degradation of concrete structure is a result of the combined effect of environmental and mechanical factors. In order to make service life design realistic it is necessary to consider both of these factors acting simultaneously. This paper deals with the advanced modelling of concrete carbonation and chloride ingress into concrete using stochastic 1D and 2D models. Widely accepted models incorporated into the new fib Model Code 2010 are extended to include factors that reflect the coupled effects of mechanical and environmental loads on the durability and reliability of reinforced concrete structures. An example of cooling tower degradation by carbonation and an example of a bended reinforced concrete beam kept for several years in salt fog are numerically studied to show the capability of the stochastic approach. The modelled degradation measures are compared with experimental results, leading to good agreement.

There are continuous cases of fire expansion due to fire door problems around the world, including the 2010 Shanghai Apartment Fire, the 2017 Grenfell Tower Fire in England, and the 2020 Ul-san Residential and Commercial Complex Fire. In order to prevent such fire damage, the country has strengthened the performance standards of fire doors, and recently, efforts have been made to ensure the best performance of fire doors by introducing a quality recognition system. Securing the performance of fire doors is a very important aspect. However, there is a concern that old fire doors may not function normally in the event of fire due to natural deterioration, corrosion, and damage during the use process, but countermeasures are insufficient. Therefore, from a management perspective, it is very important to maintain fire doors and secure an appropriate replacement time. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine whether the fire door has durability to prevent fire spread in the process of use through operation probability analysis and expert surveys, and to propose an appropriate useful life of the fire door.

최근 들어 염해환경하의 콘크리트 구조물에 대한 정량적인 사용수명 및 장기적인 성능의 확보를 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히, 확률론에 기초한 새로운 내구성 해석 및 설계개념이 콘크리트 구조물의 사용수명을 증진하기 위해 매우 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 이와 관련하여 아직까지는 설계변수와 관련한 신뢰성 있는 자료가 부족한 실정이지만, 새로운 콘크리트 구조물의 경우에는 확률론적 내구성 설계 개념을 부분적으로 적용하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 시간에 따라 변화하는 염소이온 확산계수를 고려하여 Fick의 확산방정식에 대한 해를 구하였으며, 이를 이용하여 Monte Carlo Simulation에 기초한 확률론적 내구성 해석을 수행하였다. 또한, 이를 통해 콘크리트 구조물의 내구성과 관련된 각 설계변수들의 영향을 명확히 하였으며, 제시된 확률론적 내구성 해석절차를 다양한 콘크리트 구조물로부터 얻어진 염소이온 침투자료에 적용하여 유용성을 검토하였다. 그 결과 본 연구에서 제시한 확률론적 내구성 해석절차는 향후 염해 환경에 처한 중요 콘크리트 구조물의 내구성 확보 및 기존 구조물의 염해에 기초한 잔존수명 예측에 매우 효과적으로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 낙엽송과 백합나무 톱밥을 이용한 펠릿의 제조 과정에서 톱밥의 크기 및 함수율, 펠릿제조 온도 및 성형시간이 펠릿의 내구성에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 수행하였다. 수종별 내구성의 비교에서 낙엽송 펠릿의 내구성이 백합나무 펠릿보다 높았으며, 낙엽송 펠릿의 경우 18 mesh (1.00 mm) 이상 크기의 톱밥으로 제조한 펠릿이 8~18 mesh (1.00~2.38 mm)의 톱밥으로 제조한 펠릿보다 내구성이 높았다. 펠릿제조 온도를 높이고 펠릿 성형시간을 연장함에 따라 펠릿의 내구성은 증가하였으며, 톱밥의 함수율이 올라감에 따라 펠릿의 내구성은 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 본 연구에서 제조된 낙엽송 및 백합나무 펠릿은 대조구로 사용된 산림조합 및 일도에서 제조한 목재 펠릿보다 내구성은 낮았으나, 대부분의 낙엽송 펠릿은 국립산림과학원에서 고시한 목재펠릿의 내구성 1등급 기준(97.5%)을 만족하였으며, 백합나무 펠릿은 3등급 기준(95%)을 모두 상회하였다. 전자현미경을 이용한 펠릿의 관찰에서 펠릿제조 온도를 높이고 펠릿 성형시간을 연장함에 따라 펠릿내에서 톱밥 간의 거리가 감소하고, 특히 $180^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 3분의 성형시간으로 제조한 펠릿의 경우 대조구 시편과 크게 차이가 없는 것을 육안으로 확인할 수 있었다.

It is necessary to guarantee the safety, serviceability and durability of reinforced concrete structures over their service life. However, concrete structures represent a decrease in their durability due to the effects of external environments according to the passage of time, and such degradation in durability can cause structural degradation in materials. In concrete structures, some degradations in durability increase the corrosion of embedded rebars and also decrease the structural performance of materials. Thus, the structural condition assessment of RC materials damaged by corrosion of rebars becomes an important factor that judges needs to apply restoration. In order to detect the damage of reinforced concrete structures, a visual inspection, a nondestructive evaluation method(NDE) and a specific loading test have been employed. However, obscurities for visual inspection and inaccessible members raise difficulty in evaluating structure condition. For these reasons, detection of location and quantification of the damage in structures via structural response have been one of the very important topics in system identification research. The main objective of this project is to develope a methodologies for the damage identification via static responses of the members damaged by durability. Six reinforced concrete beams with variables of corrosion position and corrosion width were fabricated and the damage detections of corroded RC beams were performed by the optimization and the conjugate beam methods using static deflection. In results it is proved that the conjugate beam method could predict the damage of RC members practically.

It is generally referred that life cycle of concrete construction is depend on whether durability of concrete is obtained or not. Nevertheless, it has not been yet applied that new material and technology to improve durability of concrete such as seaside concrete construction. In this study, chemical agent which is capable of improving durability added to 2 types seaside concrete mixs and evaluated engineering properties such as slump, air content, setting time and compressive strength. Besides shrinkage crack with an restraint condition and chloride ion penetration tests were executed to measure resistance of concrete added chemical agent and then compared non-added. It was appeared that engineering properties and resistant for chlorides was possible to improved. But resistant for shrinkage crack was not noticeable improvement than non-added. Therefore it is necessary that more consideration and following study to improve durability aspect to shrinkage crack and chlorides resistant.

Slag blended concrete is widely used as a mineral admixture in the modern concrete industry. This study shows an optimization process that determines the optimal mixture of air-entrained slag blended concrete considering carbonation durability, frost durability, CO2 emission, and materials cost. First, the aim of optimization is set as total cost, which equals material cost plus CO2 emission cost. The constraints of optimization consist of strength, workability, carbonation durability with climate change, frost durability, range of components and component ratio, and absolute volume. A genetic algorithm is used to determine optimal mixtures considering aim function and various constraints. Second, mixture design examples are shown considering four different cases, namely, mixtures without considering carbonation (Case 1), mixtures considering carbonation (Case 2), mixtures considering carbonation coupled with climate change (Case 3), and mixtures of high strength concrete (Case 4). The results show that the carbonization is the controlling factor of the mixture design of the concrete with ordinary strength (the designed strength is 30MPa). To meet the challenge of climate change, stronger concrete must be used. For high-strength slag blended concrete (design strength is 55MPa), strength is the control factor of mixture design.
