Effects of Quality Change of Fly Ash on Engineering Properties of High-strength Mortar

플라이애시 품질 변화가 고강도 모르타르의 공학적 특성에 미치는 영향

Recently over the world, many studies on the methods for using some binding materials which replace cement, such as FA, etc., for reducing CO₂. However, it has sometimes been reported that some cement products without passing through the refining process at some of FA refineries in Korea are released for sales for some reasons of shortening the production time and the cost reduction, etc., so it exerts a bad effect on the quality of many construction structures. Therefore, in this study, it was intended to conduct an experimental review on the effects of using an extreme quality of FA which is distributable domestically on the engineering characteristics of high-strength mortar. As a result, it was judged that it is beneficial for the engineering characteristics of concrete, such as, flow property, air volume and strength, etc, to use some refined FA.
