Abstract

The establishment of the technology for evaluating friction resistance and pipe pressure and the relation of the fluid characteristics and pumpability of concrete is essential for concrete pumping performance for the rapid construction of super-tall buildings. In this study, a quantitative evaluation of concrete fluid characteristics and surface friction resistance was performed, applying different concrete mix proportions and pumping conditions. To achieve this, we developed a temporary horizontal pumping evaluation system to measure pipe pressure and surface friction characteristics, and performed an experiment to investigate the relations between concrete rheology characteristics and friction resistance in pipe. The experiment found that in terms of the rheology characteristics, plastic viscosity was reduced remarkably after pumping. As well, high regression between the surface friction and pressure gradient was confirmed. This means that it is possible to evaluate the friction resistance between concrete and pipe by means of a pumping system that includes a frictional resistance testing pipe. In addition, high regression between the plastic viscosity of concrete after pumping and friction resistance coefficient was confirmed. Finally, it is considered that pumping pressure can be predicted using the friction resistance coefficient derived in this study, and it has high regression.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트를 펌프압송할 경우, 콘크리트의 배합조건에 따른 레올로지 특성의 차이와 압송속도에 의해 펌핑관내의 마찰저항력이 달라지게 되는 것에 착안하여 레올로지특성과 펌핑관내 마찰저항계수의 상관관계를 도출하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 콘크리트용 레올로지 측정장치와 관내마찰저항 평가시험장치를 이용하여 레올로지특성과 마찰저항력을 측정하기 위한 펌프압송실험을 수행하였다. 연구결과, 펌핑전후의 레올로지특성에 큰 변화가 있는 것으로 파악되었으며, 시험장치에 의해 측정된 관내마찰 저항력과 이론상의 관내 최대전단력이 거의 동일한 값을 나타냈다. 또한, 펌핑 후 콘크리트의 소성점도와 관내마찰저항계수의 상관관계가 매우 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 본 연구에서 도출된 마찰저항계수에 의한 압송압력의 예측값이 실측결과와 매우 높은 상관관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났다.
