일반적인 고인성 고성능 시멘트 복합재료의 경우 균질한 재료분포를 위하여 기본적으로 굵은 골재를 배재하는 경향이 있다. 그러나, 굵은 골재를 배재한 섬유 복합 시멘트 모르타르의 경우 재료의 탄성계수가 낮으며 단위시멘트량이 높아 경제성과 효율이 낮은 배합이기 때문에 대량으로 신규 구조물에 적용하기 힘들다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 적절한 수준의 굵은 골재를 혼입하였지만 여전히 휨인성과 휨강도는 확보하고 있는 동시에, 균열 분산성능도 보유하고 있는 고인성 섬유보강 콘크리트에 대한 개발 연구를 수행하였다. 굵은 골재의 혼입량을 실험 변수로 실험 연구를 수행하였고, 결과에 따르면 고인성 모르타르의 기본 배합에 굵은골재를 잔골재의 25%중량비로 추가한 경우에서 가장 좋은 휨인성 그리고 균열분산 특성을 나타내었다. PVA섬유는 균열분산과 연성 증진에 효과적이었고, 강섬유 섬유의 경우 균열분산보다는 강도증진에 효과적이었다.

본 연구의 목적은 RC 구조물의 균열 보수용 폴리머 시멘트 복합체의 휨접착성능을 평가하기 위함이다. 시멘트 모르타르에 다양한 크기의 균열을 만들어 PCCs를 충전한 후, 소정의 양생을 거쳐 휨접착강도와 휨강도 개선 정도를 파악하였다. 연구결과, 균열보수용 PCCs의 휨접착강도는 시멘트의 종류, 폴리머 종류 및 폴리머 결합재비에 따라 영향을 받으며 실리카퓸을 혼입한 초조강시멘트를 사용한 경우가 보통시멘트를 사용한 경우에 비해 최대 19.0%의 휨접착강도 개선효과가 나타났다. PCCs로 충전된 시멘트 모르타르의 휨강도 개선 정도는 균열폭의 영향보다는 균열깊이에 따라 큰 차이를 보였으며 균열에 충전된 PCCs가 단순히 보수재료로서 기능뿐만 아니라 어느 정도 휨강도를 개선시키는 보강재료로서도 역할을 하였다. 본 연구결과, 초조강시멘트, 3종류의 폴리머 디스퍼전과 실리카퓸, 60%~80%의 높은 폴리머 결합재비로 제작한 PCCs가 균열을 충전하는 보수재료로서 현장에서 충분히 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

Mortar is a masonry product which is matrix of concrete. It consists of binder and fine aggregate and moreover, it is an essential associate in any reinforced structural construction. The strength of mortar is a special concern to the engineer because mortar is responsible to give protection in the outer part of the structure as well as at a brick joint in masonry wall system. The purpose of this research is to investigate the compressive strength and tensile strength of mortar, which are important mechanical properties, by replacing the cement and sand by stone dust. Moreover, to minimize the increasing demand of cement and sand, checking of appropriateness of stone dust as a construction material is necessary to ensure both solid waste minimization and recovery by exchanging stone dust with cement and sand. Stone dust passing by No. 200 sieve, is used as cement replacing material and retained by No. 100 sieve is used for sand replacement. Sand was replaced by stone dust of 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45% and 50% by weight of sand while cement was replaced by stone dust of 3%, 5%, and 7% by weight of cement. Test result indicates that, compressive strength of specimen mix with 35% of sand replacing stone dust and 3% of cement replacing stone dust increases 21.33% and 22.76% respectively than the normal mortar specimen at 7 and 28 days while for tensile it increases up to 13.47%. At the end, optimum dose was selected and crack analysis as well as discussion also included.

페로니켈슬래그 잔골재는 천연 잔골재와 유사한 특성이 있어 국내 외적으로 콘크리트 구조물에 사용되고 있으나 그 용도와 연구의 영역이 한정적이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 FNS의 활용성 확대와 모르타르제품의 성능개선을 목적으로 바닥용 건조모르타르에 대한 FNS의 적용성을 검토하고자 하였다. 실험 결과, FNS는 흡수율이 낮고 구형의 입형이며 표면이 유리질 피막의 특성이 있어 모르타르의 플로을 향상시켰다. 또한 골재 자체의 높은 강성은 몰탈 압축강도의 향상 및 수축저감 효과를 나타내어 균열저감 등의 품질향상에 기여할 것으로 판단된다. 뿐만 아니라 천연 잔골재를 사용한 모르타르와 비교하여 FNS를 적용하는 경우 동등수준 이상의 충격음 차단성능을 확보할 수 있었다.

Reinforced concrete structures are exposed throughout their lifetime to the phenomenon of carbonation, which considerably influences their durability by causing corrosion of the reinforcements. The fight against this phenomenon is usually ensured by anti-carbonation coatings which have the possibility of limiting the permeability to carbon dioxide or with coatings which absorb the CO₂ present in the air. A coating with good crack-bridging (sealing) capacity will prevent water from entering through existing cracks in concrete. Despite the beneficial effect of these coatings, their durability decreases considerably over time with temperature and humidity. In order to use coatings made from local materials, not presenting any danger, available in abundance in our country, very economical and easy to operate is the main objective of this work. This paper aim is to contribute to the formulation of a corrected dune sand-based mortar as an anti-carbonation coating for concrete. The results obtained show that the cement mortar based on dune sand formulated has a very satisfactory compressive strength, a very low water porosity compared to ordinary cement mortar and that this mortar allows an improvement in the protection of the concrete against the carbonation of 60% compared to ordinary cement mortar based on alluvial sand. Moreover, the formulated cement mortars based on dune sand have good adhesion to the concrete support, their adhesion strengths are greater than 1.5MPa recommended by the standards.

The article presents the results of examination of the fractal dimension D of concrete specimen fracture surfaces obtained in fracture toughness tests. The concretes were made from three different types of coarse aggregate: gravel, dolomite and basalt aggregate. Ordinary concretes (C40) and high-performance concretes (HPC) were subjected to testing after 7, 14, 28 and 90 days of curing, respectively. In fracture toughness and compressive tests, different behaviours of concretes were found, depending on the type of aggregate and class of concrete (C40, HPC). A significant increase in the strength parameters tested occurred also after a period of 28 days (up to the $90^{th}$ day of curing) and was particularly large for concretes C40. Fractal examinations performed on fracture replicas showed that the fractal dimension D was diverse, depending on the coarse aggregate type and concrete class being, however, statistically constant after 7 and 14 days for respective concretes during curing. The fractal dimension D was the greater, the worse strength properties were possessed by the concrete. A cross-grain crack propagation occurred in that case, due to weak cohesion forces at the coarse aggregate/mortar interface. A similar effect was observed for C40 and HPC made from the same aggregate. A greater dimension D was exhibited by concretes C40, in which case the fracture was easier to form compared with high-performance concretes, where, as a result of high aggregate/mortar cohesion forces, the crack propagation was of inter-granular type, and the resulted fracture was flatter.

An experiment with the objective of providing guidelines for joint depth determination and timing of contraction joint sawcutting to avert uncontrolled cement concrete pavement cracking has been conducted. Theoretical analysis and laboratory tests were performed to help in understanding and analyzing the field observation. Using two-dimensional elastic fracture mechanics, the influence of several parameters on crack propagation was delineated by a parametric study, involving initial notch ratio, joint spacing, Young's modulus and thermal expansion coefficient of concrete, temperature gradient, and modulus of subgrade reaction. Bimaterials made of rock plus cement mortar and rock plus polymer mortar were applied to the concrete in a field test section, and they were subjected to fracture tests. These tests have shown that fracture mechanics is a powerful tool not only in judging the quality of the jointed cement concrete pavement but also in providing a criterion for crack propagation and delamination. Based on fracture mechanics, a method is proposed to determine the joint depth, sawcut timing, and spacing of the jointed cement concrete pavement. This method has successfully been applied to a test section in Seohaean expressway. This study also summarizes the research results obtained from a field test for jointed plain concrete pavement, which was also carried out on the Seohaean expressway.

A novel approach of microbiologically-enhanced crack remediation (MECR) has been initiated and evaluated in this report. Under the laboratory conditions, Bacillus pasteurii was used to induce $CaCO_3$ precipitation as the microbial urease hydrolyzes urea to produce ammonia and carbon dioxide. The ammonia released in surroundings subsequently increases pH, leading to accumulation of insoluble $CaCO_3$. Scanning electron micrography (SEM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses evidenced the direct involvement of microorganisms in $CaCO_3$ precipitation. In biochemical studies, the primary roles of microorganisms and microbial urease were defined. Furthermore, the role of urease in $CaCO_3$ precipitation was characterized utilizing recombinant Escherichia coli that encoded B. pasteurii urease genes in a plasmid. Microorganisms immobilized in polyurethane (PU) polymer were applied to remediate concrete cracks. Although microbiologically- induced calcite precipitation enhanced neither the tensile strength nor the modulus of elasticity of the PU polymer, cement mortar whose crack was remediated with the cemaden polymer showed a significant increase in compressive strength. Through detailed investigation, MECR showed an excellent potential in cementing cracks in granite, concrete, and beyond.

This paper presents the global-local finite cover method (GL-FCM) that is capable of analyzing structures involving local heterogeneities and propagating cracks. The suggested method is composed of two techniques. One of them is the FCM, which is one of the PU-based generalized finite element methods, for the analysis of local cohesive crack growth. The mechanical behavior evaluated in local heterogeneous structures by the FCM is transferred to the overall (global) structure by the so-called mortar method. The other is a method of mesh superposition for hierarchical modeling, which enables us to evaluate the average stiffness by the analysis of local heterogeneous structures not subjected to crack propagation. Several numerical experiments are conducted to validate the accuracy of the proposed method. The capability and applicability of the proposed method is demonstrated in an illustrative numerical example, in which we predict the mechanical deterioration of a reinforced concrete (RC) structure, whose local regions are subjected to propagating cracks induced by reinforcement corrosion.
