지오폴리머 반응은 매우 복잡하며, 플라이애쉬 화학조성, 입도분포, 자극제 농도와 종류, 양생온도, 양생시간 등이 지오폴리머 물성에 많은 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이 연구에서는 양생조건이 플라이애쉬 기반 지오폴리머 강도에 미치는 영향을 실험하기 위하여, 양생온도, 고온양생 전 전치시간, 고온에서의 양생시간 등을 변화시켜 양생조건 변화에 따른 지오폴리머 페이스트의 압축강도, SEM, 공극특성 등에 대하여 분석하였다. 실험 결과 양생온도가 높을수록 지오폴리머의 강도는 증가하였으며, 전양생시간이 길어질수록 지오폴리머 강도는 증가되었으나, 고온양생에서의 양생시간이 길어지면 압축강도가 저하현상이 관찰되었다. 고온에서의 양생시간이 길어지면 공극구조의 변화에 따라 강도 저하 현상이 관찰되었다. 따라서 양생온도와 양생시간은 지오폴리머 강도 및 미세구조에 큰 영향을 미치고 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study aimed to develop a Rule Based Mamdani Type Fuzzy Logic (RBMFL) model to predict the flexural strengths and compressive strengths of blended cements under elevated temperatures. Clinoptilolite was used as cement substitution material in the experimental stage. Substitution ratios in the cement mortar mix designs were selected as 0% (reference), 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. The data used in the modeling process were obtained experimentally, after mortar specimens having reached the age of 90 days and exposed to $300^{\circ}C$, $400^{\circ}C$, $500^{\circ}C$ temperatures for 3 hours. In the RBMFL model, temperature ($C^{\circ}$) and substitution ratio of clinoptilolite (%) were inputs while the compressive strengths and flexural strengths of mortars were outputs. Results were compared by using some statistical methods. Statistical comparison results showed that rule based Mamdani type fuzzy logic can be an alternative approach for the evaluation of the mechanical properties of concrete under elevated temperature.

The Purpose of this study is to evaluate the strength characteristics of polyurethane(PUR) mortar cured under low temperature condition. PUR mortars are prepared with various catalyst content, methylene chloride(MC) content as a viscosity reducing agent, and curing age at low temperature condition of $0^{\circ}C$, -5$^{\circ}C$ and -1$0^{\circ}C$, tested for working life, compressive and flexural strengths. From the test results, the catalyst and MC contents affect the degree of hardening and blowing of PUR mortar. Strengths increase with an increasing catalyst content at low temperature. Flexural and compressive strength of PUR mortar are about 177kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 490kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ respectively at curing temperature of -1$0^{\circ}C$ with catalyst content of 0.4%. Therefore, it is apparent that this PUR mortars have a sufficient strengths for repair of concrete structures.

This paper presents results of an experimental investigation on the behaviour of bond between external glass fibre reinforced polymer reinforcement and concrete exposed to three different environmental conditions, namely, temperature cycles, wet-dry cycles and outdoor environment separately for extended durations. Single shear tests (pull-out test) were conducted to investigate bond strengths (pull-out strengths) of control (unexposed) and exposed specimens. Effect of the exposure conditions on the compressive strength of concrete were also investigated separately to understand the effect of changing concrete compressive strength on the pull-out strength. Based on the comparison of experimental results of exposed specimens to control specimens in terms of bond strengths, failure modes and strain profiles, the most significant degradation of pull-out strength was observed in specimens exposed to outdoor environment, whereas temperature cycles did not cause any deterioration of strength.

The main aim of this study is to predict the compressive and flexural strengths of self-compacting mortar (SCM) containing $nano-SiO_2$, $nano-Fe_2O_3$ and nano-CuO using wavelet-based weighted least squares-support vector machines (WLS-SVM) approach which is called WWLS-SVM. The WWLS-SVM regression model is a relatively new metamodel has been successfully introduced as an excellent machine learning algorithm to engineering problems and has yielded encouraging results. In order to achieve the aim of this study, first, the WLS-SVM and WWLS-SVM models are developed based on a database. In the database, nine variables which consist of cement, sand, NS, NF, NC, superplasticizer dosage, slump flow diameter and V-funnel flow time are considered as the input parameters of the models. The compressive and flexural strengths of SCM are also chosen as the output parameters of the models. Finally, a statistical analysis is performed to demonstrate the generality performance of the models for predicting the compressive and flexural strengths. The numerical results show that both of these metamodels have good performance in the desirable accuracy and applicability. Furthermore, by adopting these predicting metamodels, the considerable cost and time-consuming laboratory tests can be eliminated.

The objective of this study are to compare the development of compressive strength of epoxy mortars used as repairing materials with respect to maturity , and to propose a model predicting strength development of epoxy mortars. A series of tests are carried out for the hardener contents of 30, 40 and 50 percentage of epoxy resin and compressive strengths are measured at the age of 6, 12, 24, 72, 120 and 168 hours respectively under the cure temperature of 0, 10, 20 and 3$0^{\circ}C$. The datum temperature is estimated by measured strengths, and the maturity is calculated with the estimated datum temperature. The compressive strength of epoxy mortars can be predicted by regression analysis from the maturity-compressive strength relationship.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of silica fume (SF) on the hydration heat and compressive strength of concrete. Portland cement with w/(c+sf) ratios varying between 0.25 to 0.45 was substituted by 10%, 20% and 30% of SF by mass. A superplasticizer was used to maintain a fluid consistency of the concrete. The heat of hydration was monitored continuously by a semi-adiabatic calorimetric method for 10 days at $20^{\circ}C$. Compressive strengths are tested for each mixture until age of 180 days. The results show that silica fume considerably influences the evolution and the ultimate values of the compressive strengths as well as the hydration heat especially for 10% rate. The w/b ratio has a considerable effect where its decrease modifies compressive strength and hydration heat more than silica fume. The correlation of the obtained results allows deducing of ultimate properties as well as the ages to reach half of their values. The correlation coefficients are close to unity and reflect the judicious choice of these relationships to be used to predict compressive strength and hydration heat.

본 연구에서는 폐 FRP(fiber reinforced plastics) 미분말을 잔골재 대용으로 치환한 폴리머 시멘트 모르타르의 물성을 조사하였다. 폴리머 혼화제로는 Styrene-Butadiene Rubber(SBR) 라텍스, Polyacrylic Ester(PAE) 에멀젼 및 Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate(EVA) 에멀젼을 사용하였다. 폐FRP 미분말의 치환율을 5~30 wt%, 폴리머 혼화제의 첨가량을 폴리머 시멘트비 5~20 wt%로 변화시켜 공시체를 제작하였다. 굳지 않은 폴리머 시멘트 모르타르의 물성, 경화 공시체의 흡수율, 내열수성 및 양생방법 에 따른 압축 및 휨강도를 측정하였다. 폐FRP 미분말을 치환ㆍ첨가한 폴리머 시멘트 모르타르의 압축 및 휨강도는 폐FRP 미분말의 치환량이 증가할수록 감소되었고, 폴리머 시멘트비가 증가할수록 증가되었다. 폴리머 혼화제로서 SBR 라텍스를 사용한 폴리머 시멘트 모르타르의 강도특성이 가장 우수하였고, 폴리머 시멘트 모르타르의 적정한 폴리머 시멘트비는 20wt%이었고, 폐FRP 미분말의 적정 치환량은 20wt%로 나타났다. 또한 폴리머 시멘트 모르타르는 가열양생에 의해 강도발현이 촉진되었다.

Test results of thirteen reinforced concrete corbels with shear span-to-depth ratio greater than unity are reported. The main variables studied were compressive strength of concrete, shear span-to-depth ratio and parameter of vertical stirrups. The test results indicate that the shear strengths of corbels increase with an increase in compressive strength of concrete and parameter of vertical stirrups. The shear strengths of corbels also increase with a decrease in shear span-to-depth ratio. The smaller the shear span-to-depth ratio of corbel, the larger the stiffness and the shear strength of corbel are. The higher the concrete strength of corbel, the higher the stiffness and the shear strength of corbel are. The larger the parameter of vertical stirrups, the larger the stiffness and the shear strength of corbel are. The softened strut-and-tie model for determining the shear strengths of reinforced concrete corbels is modified appropriately in this paper. The shear strengths predicted by the proposed model and the approach of ACI Code are compared with available test results. The comparison shows that the proposed model can predict more accurately the shear strengths of reinforced concrete corbels than the approach of ACI Code.
