초록
본 연구에서는 경량기포 콘크리트를 이용한 육성용 토양골재의 적용성을 평가하기 위해서 고로슬래그 기반 기포콘크리트의 총 8배합과 인공토양골재를 제조하였다. 고로슬래그 기반 기포콘크리트 배합의 주요변수는 단위결합재량으로서 100에서 $800kg/m^3$으로 변화하였다. 경량기포콘크리트는 플로우, 슬러리 및 절건 밀도와 재령별 압축강도를 측정하였으며, 파쇄된 인공토양골재는 pH, 입도분포, 투수계수, 양이온치환용량(CEC), 유기물함유량(C/N비)을 측정하였다. 측정결과 경량기포콘크리트의 플로우, 슬러리 및 절건밀도와 재령별 압축강도는 단위결합재량이 증가함에 따라 증가하였다. 경량기포콘크리트의 단위결합재량이 $500kg/m^3$ 이상인 배합의 28일 압축강도는 4 MPa 이상이었다. 인공토양골재에 3일 이상의 15% 희석된 제1인산암모늄의 수용액침지는 pH를 저감시키는데 효과적이었다. 또한 제조된 인공토양골재는 양이온 치환용량(CEC) 측면에서 상급으로 평가되었지만 C/N비 측면에서는 조경시방서를 만족시키지 못하였다.
The eight mixes and artificial soil aggregates were prepared for evaluating the practical application of lightweight foamed concrete as soil aggregates. The main parameter was unit binder content ranged between from 100 to $800kg/m^3$. In lightweight foamed concrete, flow, slurry and dried density, and compressive strength at different ages were measured. In Artificial soil aggregates crushed from lightweight foamed concrete, particle size distribution, pH, coefficient of permeability, cation exchange capacity(CEC), and ratio of carbon to nitrogen(ratio of C/N), were measured. The test results showed that flow, slurry and dried density, and compressive strength at different ages of lightweight foamed concrete increased with the increasing of unit binder content. Compressive strength at age of 28, of lightweight foamed concrete with unit binder of more than $500kg/m^3$, was more than 4 MPa. The ammonium phosphate immersion time of more than age of 3, was effective to decrease pH of artificial soil aggregates. In addition, artificial soil aggregates was evaluated as high class in terms of cation exchange capacity(CEC), while satisfied with value of ratio of carbon to nitrogen(ratio of C/N) recommended by landscape specification.
