초기재령 콘크리트의 크리프를 고려한 온도 및 수축응력 해석

  • Published : 2002.06.01

Abstract

This study is devoted to the problems of thermal and shrinkage stresses in order to avoid cracking at early ages. The early-age damage induced by volume change has great influence on the long-term structural performance of the concrete structures such as its durability and serviceability To solve this complex problem, the computer programs for analysis of thermal and shrinkage stresses were developed. In these procedures, numerous material models are needed and the realistic numerical models have been developed and validated by comparison with relevant experimental results in order to solve practical problems. A framework has been established for formulation of material models and analysis with 3-D finite element method. After the analysis of the temperature, moisture and degree of hydration field in hardening concrete structure, the stress development is determined by incremental structural formulation derived from the principle of virtual work. In this study, the stress development is related to thermal and shrinkage deformation, and resulting stress relaxation due to the effect of early-age creep. From the experimental and numerical results it is found that the early-age creep p)ays important role in evaluating the accurate stress state. The developed analysis program can be efficiently utilized as a useful tool to evaluate the thermal and shrinkage stresses and to find measures for avoiding detrimental cracking of concrete structures at early ages.

본 연구에서 초기재령 콘크리트의 크리프 특성을 고려한 단면 내 온도 및 수축응력을 구하는 3차원 유한요소 해석 프로그램을 개발하기 위한 수치해석 절차에 관하여 정립하였다. 최근 들어 구조물의 노후화에 따른 콘크리트의 내구성에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있고, 초기재령에서 발생하는 균열은 구조물의 내구성 및 사용성과 같은 장기적인 성능에 큰 영향을 미친다. 많은 토목 기술자들이 초기재령 콘크리트의 체적변화에 의한 응력 및 균열 문제를 심도 깊게 다루지 않는 데는 장기적인 내구성과 사용성에 대한 인식이 부족하고, 경화가 진행되는 콘크리트의 체적변화는 매우 복잡한 영향인자를 고려해야 되기 때문이다. 또한 초기재령 콘크리트의 체적변화로 인한 응력을 예측하는 기존 프로그램들은 주로 수화열에 의한 온도 및 열응력 해석에 국한되거나, 수화과정과 연계되지 않은 습도분포에 의한 수축 응력해석을 대상으로 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 초기재령 콘크리트의 체적 변화에 의한 모든 응력 요소를 하나의 통합적인 해석 시스템으로 구성하여, 초기재령 콘크리트의 균열 제어 수단으로 활용하고자 한다. 본 연구는 초기재령 콘크리트의 온도 및 수분에 관련된 재료 물성 뿐 만 아니라 역학적 특성 등 모든 재료 물성을 수화도에 기초하여 모델링하였다. 또한 콘크리트가 강성을 가지는 시점부터의 초기재령 크리프 실험을 수행하고, 그 결과로부터 수화도에 따른 크리프 거동을 모델링하여 해석 프로그램에 반영하였다. 개발된 해석프로그램을 이용하여 수치해석 결과와 실험결과를 비교하여 그 타당성을 검증하고, 해석 예제를 통하여 각 변형률 성분에 의한 잔류 응력의 변화 양상을 비교, 분석하였다.
