1 LONG-TERM DURABILITY OF REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES USING SHIRASU CONCRETE IN ACTUAL MARINE ENVIRONMENT ancient ruins in Rome Pantheon ( B.C27 ) Koji Takewaka, Department of Ocean Civil Engineering, Graduate school of Science and Engineering Kagoshima University, JAPAN ancient ruins in Rome Colosseum (A.C8) Naples Somma Ruins Ercolano Ruins Vesuvio Vlcano Pompei Ruins Ancient Rome Somma Ruins Ancient Rome Somma Ruins The Ruin is being excavated from 24 by Aoyagi Project 1

2 Concrete used in Somma Ruins What is pyro-clastic flow ash? Pyro-clastic flow is a type of volcano eruption. Large amount of volcano ash runs down along mountain serface, like as photographs shown below; Pyroclastic flow Ancient Roman Concrete is assumed to be made of pyro-clastic flow ash Pyroclastic flow at Unzen, Nagasaki, Japan in 1991 Sapporo What is? is a local name of pyro-clastic flow deposit due to very big eruption of volcano around 2, years ago. The name means White sand in Japanese. In the southern part of Kyushu Island, Japan, enormous volume of pyro-clastic flow deposit called has been deposited Tokyo Pyroclastic flow Kagoshima Pyroclastic flow at Unzen, Nagasaki, Japan in 1991 What is? What is? deposit More than 6 billion m 3 of cover in Kagoshima prefecture 2

3 What is? The deposits seems to be rock because of strong binding effect between particles What is? The deposits seems to be rock because of strong binding effect between particles However, once the rock is scratched, changes to sandy condition However, once the rock is scratched, changes to sandy condition Before scratching After scratching What is? The deposits seems to be rock because of strong binding effect between particles However, once the rock is scratched, changes to sandy condition What is? concrete, which is made of cement used as binder and as fine aggregates. is very closed to Authors have been developed so-called concrete, in which is used as fine aggregate. Ancient Roman Concrete, which is estimated to be made of lime powder and volcano (pyroclastic flow) ash Before scratching After scratching What is? Physical Characteristics of used as fine aggregate in this research work Physical Characterristics Normal sand Density of surface-dry state (g/cm 3 ) ~2.7 Absorption capacity ratio (%) 7.9 1~3 Content ratio of the fine powder (%) 2.11 ~. Fineness modulus of aggregate (F.M.) ~3. Solid volume ratio (%).11 ~6 has about 8% of the density and nearly three times of the absorption capacity as compared with the usual sand What is? One of the characteristics of is to have pozzolanic reactivity Chemical composition of SHIRASU Chemical composition SiO 2 Al 2 O 3 Fe 2 O 3 CaO Na 2 O K 2 O content ratio (%) As a result It is assumed that concrete has high durability performance against chloride attack, sulfate attack, alkali silica reaction, etc. 3

4 What is? One of the characteristics of is to have pozzolanic reactivity The surface condition of concrete in 1% Na 2 SO 4 solution after 2. years of exposure (Cement: BFC) Objective of this research From previous researches about concrete using as a fine aggregate concrete seems to be durable in various environments However % % 1% 2% 7% content in fine aggregate The durability in actual marine environment has not been investigated yet Objective of this research To evaluate quantitatively the long-term durability of concrete using in marine environment Basic Experiments Two types of small specimen are used. 1 years-on-site exposure test in marine environment Basic experiments using small specimens Experiments using largerscale specimens modeling actual marine structures / Specimens without any crack / Specimens with crack Shape of specimen for basic experiments Shape of specimen for basic experiments Specimens without any crack (1 1 in size) Rebars (D1) with of Epoxy coating cover thickness Tension Bolt Specimens with crack (1 1 6cm in size) 1cm 1cm Rebars (D1) with of cover thickness.2mm of maximum crack width 4
