Abstract

In this paper, viscosity features of sealant (bentonite-cement slurry), which is used for umbrella arch method in tunnel, were studied. The sealant must secure optimal strength and capacity for the waterproof and stabilization of borehole as well as to satisfy groutability. In this study, the variation of viscosity was measured with different mixing processes. With an increase of initial mixing period with water and bentonite mixture, the required time for the rapid increase of viscosity of the sealant is shorten. With increase of mixing period, the possibility of swelling of bentonite will increases and this can lead increase of the viscosity of the mixture. In addition, the behaviors of sealant vary with a drastic increase of the viscosity: thixotropy and rheopexy. Furthermore, the bentonite/water mixing period influences on the bleeding features of the sealant. Further study is required to introduce the guideline, which can be applicable in the field in the aspect of required capacity of the sealants and mixing processes of the ingredients.

본 연구에서는 강관다단공법에 사용되는 씰링재의 점도특성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 씰링재는 차수 및 공벽 안정성 확보 기능과 더불어 후속공정인 그라우트재 주입 시 주입이 원활히 될 수 있도록 최소한의 강도를 보유하여야 한다. 교반조건에 따른 씰링재의 특성을 점도를 통하여 간접적으로 파악하였다. 초기 물과 벤토나이트의 사전 교반 특성에 따라 점도의 급격한 증가 시점이 상이하게 나타났다. 사전교반 시간이 길수록 벤토나이트가 팽윤 할 기회가 많아지므로 상대적으로 짧은 시간에 점도의 급격한 증가 현상이 나타났다. 또한 급격한 점도 증가 이전 단계에서는 물/시멘트/벤토나이트 혼합물이 틱소트로피 거동을 보이다가 점도 증가 이후부터는 레오펙시 거동을 보인다. 또한 사전 교반 시간은 혼합물이 재료분리 거동에도 영향을 미침이 확인이 되었다. 따라서 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 씰링재의 요구성능 및 배합절차에 대해서 추가 논의가 필요하며, 향후 시멘트와 벤트나이트의 상호작용에 대해 심도 깊은 연구를 통하여 현장에서 적용 가능한 가이드 도출이 필요하다.
