Previous studies have shown that the drying shrinkage of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) is greater than that of natural aggregate concrete (NAC). Drying shrinkage is the fundamental reason for the cracking of concrete, and tensile creep caused by the restraint of drying shrinkage plays a significant role in the cracking because it can relieve the tensile stress and results in the delay of cracking occurrence. However, up till now, all research has been focusing on the compressive creep of RAC. Therefore, in this study, a uniaxial restrained shrinkage cracking test was executed to investigate the tensile creep properties caused by the restraint of drying shrinkage of RAC. The mechanical properties, such as compressive strength, tensile splitting strength, and Young's modulus of RAC were also investigated in this study. The results confirmed that the tensile creep of RAC caused by the restraint of shrinkage was about 20-30 % larger than that of NAC.

이 연구의 목적은 개착식 전력구 콘크리트에 발생하는 부등건조수축에 의한 균열특성을 파악하고, 수축저감제 혼입에 따른 건조수축균열특성을 분석하는데 있다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 전력구 박스형 콘크리트 구조물의 부등건조수축에 의한 균열특성을 파악하기 위하여 세 가지 주요영향인자를 고려한 수치해석과 수치해석을 한 결과와 실제 전력구 타설을 하여 측정한 차이를 확인해 보았다. 본 연구로부터 건조 수축 시험체에 대한 건조수축량을 산정에 대한 해석 기법을 개발하였으며, 실제 전력구 타설 실험을 통해 종방향 및 횡방향 균열발생 가능성을 입증 하였다. 전력구 실증시험체 건조수축량 수치해석 결과, 균열저감 콘크리트 배합의 경우 종방향 및 횡방향 응력에 있어 일반배합에 비해 40~50%정도의 현저한 감소를 보이며, 이에 따라 균열저감 콘크리트를 전력구에 적용하였을 경우 현저한 균열감소 효과를 보일 것으로 예측된다.

The study is to examine the drying shrinkage reducing method of mortar using organic shrinkage reducing agent. According to the experiment result, when 2% and 4% of organic shrinkage reducing agent were added, 40% and 50% of the shrinkage rate of mortar were obtained. Also, in the cracking test of plate-shape specimen, the usage of shrinkage agent 2% reduced about 60% of the total cracking length compare to total cracking length the usage of portland cement, the usage of shrinkage agent 4% was not happened crack until 90 days. Accordingly, the usage of shrinkage agent show good effect in prevention of crack.

Fiber-reinforced self-compacting concrete (FRSCC) is a new type of concrete mix that can mitigate two opposing weaknesses: poor workability in fiber-reinforced concrete and cracking resistance in plain SCC concrete. This study focused on early-age cracking of FRSCC due to restrained drying shrinkage, one of the most common causes of cracking. In order to investigate the effect of fiber on shrinkage cracking of FRSCC, ring shrinkage tests were performed for polypropylene and steel fiber-reinforced SCC. In addition, finite element analyses for those specimens were carried out considering drying shrinkage based on moisture diffusion, creep, cracking resistance of concrete, and the effect of fiber. The analysis results were verified via a comparison between the measured and calculated crack width. From the test and analysis results, the effectiveness of fiber with respect to reducing cracking was confirmed and some salient features on the shrinkage cracking of FRSCC were obtained.

In this study we have the properties of drying shrinkage crack of hardened cement mortar using admixtures. The drying shrinkage cracking test process has been examined by the restrained drying shrinkage strain by restraining rate measuring properties of strain-with- restraint by JIS original proposal and keeps a flow value of mortar about 100$\pm$5%. The results show that the usage of shrinkage reducing agent 1.5% was effective on the control of drying shrinkage in OPC and CP by restraining rate 20% and strain-with-restraing 20~30 $\mu$, the usage of expansion agent 0.45% was effective by restraining rate 50~60% and strain-with-restraint 40~80$\mu$, and the effectiveness was increased with shrinkage reducing agent. Also. admixtures such as Flyash, CP and NC reduced restrained shrinkage and drying shrinkage cracking and more with shrinkage reducing agent

이 연구의 목적은 개착식 전력구 콘크리트에 발생하는 부등건조수축에 의한 균열특성을 파악하고, 그 제어방법을 제시하는데 있다. 건조수축균열은 콘크리트 내부의 수분확산계수의 영향을 크게 받으며, 수분확산계수는 콘크리트 내부에서의 수분이동속도를 결정하는 주요인자이다. 수분확산계수와 더불어 콘크리트 표면의 표면계수와 외부의 상대습도는 콘크리트 내부에서 외부로의 수분이동에 영향을 미친다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 전력구 박스형 콘크리트 구조물의 부등건조수축에 의한 균열특성을 파악하기 위하여 세 가지 주요영향인자를 고려한 수치해석을 수행하였다. 수치해석 결과, 수분확산계수와 표면계수가 증가할수록 상부슬래브의 부등건조수축에 의한 균열발생시점이 빨라지며, 세 가지 요인 중에 콘크리트의 부등건조수축에 의한 균열발생 특성에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것은 외기습도인 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구결과를 분석한 결과, 개착식 전력구 시공시에 콘크리트 타설 후 표면보습이나 살수양생과 같이 외기습도를 증가시키는 것이 부등건조수축에 의한 균열제어에 가장 효과적인 것으로 판단되며, 콘크리트 재료적 측면의 균열저감방법으로 수분확산계수와 표면계수를 결정하는 콘크리트의 배합이나 재료특성을 적절히 선정함으로써 균열의 진전속도나 발생시점을 제어할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The mechanical properties of specialty cellulose fiber reinforced concrete and the contribution of specialty cellulose fiber to drying shrinkage crack reduction potential of concrete and theirs evaluation are presented in this paper. The effects of differing fiber volume fraction(0.03%, 0.06%, 0.08%, 0.1%, 0.15%, 0.2%) were studied. The results of tests of the specialty cellulose fiber reinforced concrete were compared with plain and polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete. Flexural performance(flexural strength and flexural toughness) test results indicated that specialty cellulose fiber reinforcement showed an ability to increase the flexural performance of normal- and high- strength concrete(as compared to plain and polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete). Optimum specialty cellulose fiber reinforced concrete were obtianed using 0.08% fiber volume fraction. Drying shrinkage cracking test results confirmed specialty cellulose fibers are effective in reducing the drying shrinkage cracking of normal and high-strength concrete(as compared to popylene fiber reinforced concrete).

In this study, the effect of very fine sand on drying shrinkage cracking of concrete was experimentally evaluated. As a result of the study, the time-to-cracking of concrete used very fine sand was shorter than plain concrete. Also, the stress rate of concrete used very fine sand was higher than plain concrete. It was due to the increase of water content when very fine sand was used in concrete. In conclusion, the use of very fine sand can lead the increase of water content to meet the target slump and higher potential of cracking of concrete.

In Korea, attempts have been made to develop high strength concrete for the safety and design life improvement of nuclear power plants. In this study, the cracking potentials of nuclear power plant-high strength concretes (NPP-HSCs) containing industrial by-products with W/B 0.34 and W/B 0.28, which are being reviewed for their application in the construction of containment structures, were evaluated through autogenous shrinkage, unrestrained drying shrinkage, and restrained drying shrinkage experiments. The cracking potentials of the NPP-HSCs with W/B 0.34 and W/B 0.28 were in the order of 0.34FA25 > 0.34FA25BFS25 > 0.34BFS50 > 0.34BFS65SF5 and 0.28FA25SF5 >> 0.28BFS65SF5 > 0.28BFS45SF5 > 0.28 FA20BFS25SF5, respectively. The cracking potentials of the seven mix proportions excluding 0.28FA25SF5 were lower than that of the existing nuclear power plant concrete; thus, the durability of a nuclear power plant against shrinkage cracking could be improved by applying the seven mix proportions with low cracking potentials.
