초록

철근부식을 현장에서 평가하기 위해 다양한 부식측정방법이 있으나, 반전위(HCP: half cell potential)방법이 많이 사용되고 있다. 균열이 발생한 RC 구조물은 균열폭으로 유입되는 염화물, 이산화탄소 등에 의해 부식이 가속화 된다. 이 연구는 염해에 노출된 균열을 가진 RC 보의 HCP을 측정하여 부식정도를 평가하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 세가지 물-시멘트비(w/c 0.35, 0.55, 0.70)와 다양한 피복두께(10~60 mm)를 가진 RC 보를 제조하였으며 하중을 가하여 균열폭을 0.0~1.5 mm로 유도하였다. 35일간 촉진염해분무시험을 통하여 부식을 촉진하였으며 이후 HCP과 부식길이를 평가하였다. 균열이 클수록, w/c가 높을수록, 피복두께가 작을수록 HCP은 증가하였으며, 각각의 영향인자를 정량화하여 균열을 가진 RC 보의 HCP 평가식을 도출하였다. 또한 Life365 프로그램을 이용하여 부식방지 피복두께를 도출하고 HCP평가식을 통한 부식방지 피복두께와 비교하였다. 균열부 콘크리트에서는 차이가 발생하였으나, w/c 0.6이하의 건전부 콘크리트에서는 두가지 방법에서 모두 근접한 부식저항 조건을 도출하였다.

Several techniques for steel corrosion detection are proposed and HCP (half cell potential) technique is widely adopted for field investigation. If concrete has cracks on surface, steel corrosion is rapidly accelerated due to additional intrusion of chloride and carbon dioxide ions. This study is for an evaluation of HCP in cracked concrete exposed chloride attack. For this work, RC (reinforced concrete) beams are prepared considering 3 w/c ratios (0.35, 0.55, and 0.70) and several cover depths (10~60 mm) and various crack widths of 0.0~1.0 mm are induced. For 35 days, SST (salt spraying test) is performed for corrosion acceleration, and HCP and corrosion length of rebar are evaluated. With increasing crack width, w/c ratios, and decreasing cover depth, HCP measurements increase. HCP evaluation technique is proposed considering the effects of w/c ratios, crack width, and cover depth. Furthermore anti-corrosive cover depths are obtained through Life365 program and the results are compared with those from this study. The results shows relatively big difference in cracked concrete, however provide similar anti-corrosive conditions in sound concrete.
