Ferroconcrete Dismantling Technique using Induction Heating

摘要

To increase the quality of recycling, a new demolition technique is required that can work in parallel with existing crushing methods, which use large equipment with high crushing efficiency. Moreover, the efficient collection of the remains from the fractional dismantling method needs to be considered based on its procedure, and the technology for partial dismantling that is efficient in remodelling, maintenance, and reinforcement has to be developed. In this study, the temperature-increasing characteristics of rebars inside ferroconcrete with respect to their arrangement was investigated by partial rapid heating through high-frequency induction heating. Based on this, the chemical and physical vulnerability characteristics of ferroconcrete due to the thermal conduction generated on the rebar surface and the cracks caused by the thermal expansion pressure of the rebar were verified. In addition, the objective of this study was to verify the applicability of the technology by specifying the vulnerability range of ferroconcrete based on the heating range with adequate consumption of energy.
