To investigate the seismic performance of steel pipe-aeolian sand recycled concrete columns, this study designed and produced five specimens. Low-cycle repeated load tests were conducted while maintaining a constant axial compression ratio. The experiment aimed to examine the impact of different aeolian sand replacement rates on the seismic performance of these columns. The test results revealed that the mechanical failure modes of the steel pipe-recycled concrete column and the steel pipe-aeolian sand recycled concrete column were similar. Plastic hinges formed and developed at the column foot, and severe local buckling occurred at the bottom of the steel pipe. Interestingly, the bulging height of the damaged steel pipe was reduced for the specimen mixed with an appropriate amount of wind-deposited sand under the same lateral displacement. The hysteresis curves of all five specimens tested were relatively full, with no significant pinching phenomenon observed. Moreover, compared to steel tube-recycled concrete columns, the steel tube-aeolian sand recycled concrete columns exhibited improved seismic energy dissipation capacity and ductility. However, it was noted that as the aeolian sand replacement rate increased, the bearing capacity of the specimen increased first and then decreased. The seismic performance of the specimen was relatively optimal when the aeolian sand replacement rate was 30%. Upon analysis and comparison, the damage analysis model based on stiffness and energy consumption showed good agreement with the test results and proved suitable for evaluating the damage degree of steel pipe-wind-sand recycled concrete structures.

본 연구는 파쇄처리 순환골재를 사용한 콘크리트의 특성을 검토하기 위하여 순환골재의 흡수율별 단위시멘트량 및 물시멘트비를 변화시켜 콘크리트의 특성에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 실험결과 물시멘트비가 높은 저강도 배합에서는 파쇄처리 순환골재를 사용한 콘크리트와 쇄석 콘크리트의 압축강도가 동등한 수준으로 나타나 순환골재의 부착모르타르 영향이 작은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 물시멘트비가 낮은 고강도 배합에서는 파쇄처리 순환골재를 사용한 콘크리트가 부착모르타르의 영향으로 쇄석을 사용한 콘크리트보다 약 40%의 압축강도저하를 나타내었다. 한편, 흡수율 7%인 순환골재의 건조수축량은 재령 10주에서 흡수율 1%인 쇄석의 $-310{\times}10^{-6}$보다 2배 증가된 $-700{\times}10^{-6}$을 나타내어 콘크리트용 골재로의 재활용시 건조수축에 대한 검토가 선행되어야 할 것으로 사료된다. 또한 단위시멘트량 $450kg/m^3$인 부배합 콘크리트의 압축강도는 흡수율 3%인 순환골재 사용시 쇄석 사용 콘크리트와 동등하게 나타난 반면, 흡수율 7%인 순환골재를 사용한 경우에는 쇄석 사용 콘크리트에 비해 약 7%정도 낮게 나타났다. 그러나, 단위시멘트량 $350kg/m^3$인 일반배합 콘크리트의 압축강도는 쇄석 사용 콘크리트에 비해 압축강도 저하가 현저하게 나타났다.

순환골재의 생산기술이 향상됨에 따라 순환골재를 사용한 순환골재콘크리트의 품질은 일반골재를 사용한 콘크리트의 품질과 경쟁할 수 있는 수준으로 향상되었다. 따라서 순환골재를 구조부재에 사용하는 것은 가능할 것으로 예상되고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 연구들은 순환골재을 사용한 콘크리트의 강도, 내구성 등의 기초적인 연구에만 집중되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 순환골재의 구조부재로서의 사용처 확대를 위하여, 순환굵은골재 및 순환잔골재의 다양한 혼입률(순환굵은골재: 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 100%; 순환잔골재 0%, 30%, 60%, 100%)에 따른 원심력콘크리트의 강도 특성을 검증하고자 하였다. 또한 원심력콘크리트의 품질 및 성능향상을 기대하며 특수 가공된 셀룰로오스섬유의 다양한 혼입에 따른 강도특성을 검증하였다. 실험결과, 일반굵은골재와 순환잔골재을 혼입한 시험체(NR 시험체)의 강도는 72MPa로써 일반굵은골재와 일반잔골재를 사용한 기준시험체(NN 시험체)의 강도 74MPa과 유사한 수준을 나타내었다. 따라서 순환잔골재는 고강도 원심력콘크리트 제품에 100% 혼입사용이 가능한 것으로 판단된다. 또한 특수 가공 처리된 셀룰로오스섬유를 혼입한 모든 시험체의 강도는 약 70MPa로 측정되었으나, 섬유 혼입량이 증가할수록 시험체의 강도는 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 특수 가공 처리된 셀룰로오스섬유는 원심력콘크리트 제품에 충분히 적용 가능 한 것으로 판단된다.

PURPOSES : This study was performed to determine a systematic approach for measuring the coefficient of thermal expansion (COTE) of concrete specimens. This approach includes the initial calibration of measurement equipment. Test variables include coarse aggregate types such as natural aggregate, job-site produced recycled concrete aggregate, and recycled aggregate processed from an intermediate waste treatment company. METHODS : First, two cylindrical SUS-304 specimens with a known COTE value of $17.3{\times}10^{-6}m/m/^{\circ}C$. were used as reference specimens for the calibration of each measurement system. The well-known AASHTO TP-60 COTE apparatus for concrete measurement was utilized in this study. Four different measurement apparatuses were used with each LVDT installed and a calibration value was determined using each measurement apparatus. RESULTS : In the initial experimental stage, calibration values for each measurement apparatus were assumed to be almost identical. However, using the SUS-304 samples as a reference, the calibration values for the four different measurement apparatuses were found to range from 3.49 to $8.86{\times}10^{-6}m/m/^{\circ}C$. Using different adjusted values for each measurement apparatuses, COTE values for the three different concrete specimens were obtained. The COTE value of concrete made with natural coarse aggregate was $9.91{\times}10^{-6}m/m/^{\circ}C$, that of job-site produced recycled coarse aggregate was $10.45{\times}10^{-6}m/m/^{\circ}C$, and that of recycled aggregate processed from the intermediate waste treatment company was $10.82{\times}10^{-6}m/m/^{\circ}C$. CONCLUSIONS : We observed that the COTE value of concrete made from recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) was higher than that of concrete made from natural coarse aggregate. This difference is due to the fact that the total volumetric mortar proportion in the RCA mix is higher than that in the concrete mix made with natural coarse aggregate.

In general, polymer concrete has more excellent mechanical properties and durability than Portland cement concrete, but very sensitive to heat and has large deformations. In this study, the long-term creep behaviors was predicted by the short-term creep test, and then the characteristic of creep of recycled-PET polymer concrete was defined by material and experimental variables. The error in the predicted long-term creep values is less than 5 percent for all polymer concrete systems. The filler carry out an important role to restrict the creep strains of recycled PET polymer concrete. The creep strain and specific on using the CaCO3 were less than using fly-ash. the creep increases with an increase in the applied stress, but not proportional the rate of stress increase ratio. The creep behavior of polymer concrete using recycled polyester resin is not a linear viscoelastic behavior.

With the increase in industrialization and urbanization, growing demand has enhanced rate of new constructions and old demolitions. To avoid serious environmental impacts and hazards recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) is being adopted in all over the world. This paper investigates successive recycled coarse aggregates (SRCA) in which old concrete made with RCA in form of concrete cubes was used. The cubes were crushed to prepare new concrete using aggregates from crushing of old concrete, used as SRCA. The mechanical behavior of concrete was determined containing SRCA; the properties of SRCA were evaluated and then compared with natural aggregates (NA). Replacement of NA with SRCA in ratio upto 100% by weight was studied for workability, mechanical properties and microstructural analysis. It was observed that with the increase in replacement ratio workability and compressive strength decreased but in acceptable limits so SRCA can be used in low strength concretes rather than high strength concrete structures.

본 연구에서는 국내에서 생산되고 있는 콘크리트용 순환 굵은골재 및 순환잔골재를 사용하여 콘크리트의 설계기준 강도(21, 35, 50MPa) 및 순환골재의 혼입조건 변화가 콘크리트의 탄산화 거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 실험결과 순환 굵은골재의 혼입률 변화에 따른 콘크리트의 슬럼프는 순환골재를 혼입하지 않은 경우에 비해 동등하거나 양호한 유동성을 나타내는 것으로 나타났으며, 순환 잔골재를 혼입한 경우는 혼입률이 증가함에 따라 슬럼프가 감소되는 결과를 나타냈다. 또한, 순환 굵은골재 및 순환 잔골재의 혼입률이 증가할수록 콘크리트의 압축강도는 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 순환골재 혼입률이 50%를 초과할 경우 급격한 강도 감소 경향을 나타냈다. 그리고 탄산화 깊이는 모든 순환골재 종류에서 혼입률이 증가함에 따라 최대 40%까지 증가하는 결과를 나타냈으며 낮은 강도 수준의 콘크리트 일수록 순환골재 활용에 따른 탄산화 저항성 저하 정도가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 콘크리트의 압축강도가 증가할수록 순환골재 혼입에 따른 영향은 감소되어, 고강도 영역에서는 일반 콘크리트와 유사한 탄산화 특성을 발현하는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 순환골재를 콘크리트용 재료로 대량 활용하기 위해서는 콘크리트의 탄산화 저항성의 개선 위한 혼화재료의 적용 또는 배합설계상 조정을 통한 강도의 개선 등이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Recycling concrete construction waste is an encouraging step toward green and sustainable building. A lot of research has been done on recycled aggregate concretes (RACs), but not nearly as much has been done on concrete made with recycled aggregate. Recycled aggregate concrete, on the other hand, has been found to have a lower mechanical productivity compared to conventional one. Accurately estimating the mechanical behavior of the concrete samples is a most important scientific topic in civil, structural, and construction engineering. This may prevent the need for excess time and effort and lead to economic considerations because experimental studies are often time-consuming, costly, and troublous. This study presents a comprehensive data-mining-based model for predicting the splitting tensile strength of recycled aggregate concrete modified with glass fiber and silica fume. For this purpose, first, 168 splitting tensile strength tests under different conditions have been performed in the laboratory, then based on the different conditions of each experiment, some variables are considered as input parameters to predict the splitting tensile strength. Then, three hybrid models as GWO-RF, GWO-MLP, and GWO-SVR, were utilized for this purpose. The results showed that all developed GWO-based hybrid predicting models have good agreement with measured experimental results. Significantly, the GWO-RF model has the best accuracy based on the model performance assessment criteria for training and testing data.
