The growth in fast-track construction and repair has prompted major efforts to develop high-early-strength concrete mix compositions. Such mixtures rely on the use of relatively high cement contents and accelerator dosages to increase the rate of strength development. The measures, however, seem to compromise the long-term performance of concrete in applications such as full-depth patches as evidenced by occasional premature deterioration of such patches. The hypothesis successfully validated in this research was that traditional methods of increasing the early-age strength of concrete, involving the use of high cement and accelerator contents, increase the moisture and thermal movements of concrete. Restraint of such movements in actual field conditions, by external or internal restraining factors, generates tensile stresses which introduced microcracks and thus increase the permeability of concrete. This increase in permeability accelerates various processes of concrete deterioration, including freeze-thaw attack. Fiver reinforcement of concrete is an effective approach to the control of microcrack and crack development under tensile stresses. Fibers, however, have not been known of accelerating the process of strength gain in concrete. The recently developed specialty cellulose fibers, however, were found in this research to be highly effective in increasing the early-age strength of concrete. This provides a unique opportunity to increase the rate of strength gain in concrete without increasing moisture an thermal movements, which actually controlling the processes of microcracking and racking in concrete. Laboratory test results confirmed the desirable resistance of specialty cellulose fiber reinforced High-early-strength concrete to restrained shrinkage microcracking an cracking, and to different processes of deterioration under weathering effects.

It was fond that the compressive and flexural strength of recycled concrete was decreased with increasing the content of recycled aggregate and the early compressive strength was also decreased with increasing Fly Ash level. In comparison with recycled concretes producing various sources, the trend were similar to those shown above, but the differences were minor. the development of Flexural strength in both concretes was similar, but the recycled concrete is lower in the ratio of flexural strength and compressive strength. The drying shrinkage of recycled concrete is increased with increasing the amount of recycled aggregate, particularly the maximum differences were reached between at 2 and 3 weeks.

The reuse of waste concrete amy settle the problems of environmental pollution and critical shortage of good natural aggregate. But recycled aggregate particles consist of substantial amount of relatively soft cement paste component. These aggregates are more porous, and les resistant to mechanical actions than natural aggregate. And the source of supply for manufacturing recycled aggregate is generally composed of different types of original aggregate and strengths of original mortar. The properties of recycled aggregate exhibit a considerable variation due to the properties of original concrete. This paper is an experimental study on the fundamental properties of recycled aggregates sampled from processing plant in the suburbs of TaeJeon.

The objective of this study is toe examine the quality of the tailing produced in Sang-Dong area and to estimate whether it can be useful for the fine aggregate of concrete or not. We obtained that concrete made with tailing replacement fine aggregate showed more water content then that of concrete not containing tailing for the same workability. And also, compressive strength of concrete containing tailing showed higher value then that of concrete not containing tailing.

Recycling of waste concrete will contribute not only to the solution of a growing waste disposal problem, also help to conserve natural resources of aggregate and to secure future supply of reasonably recycled aggregates for building construction purpose within large urban areas. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the applicability of recycled concrete in the influence of a substitute rate of recycled aggregate. As the result of this study, it is possible to conform that the recycled aggregate concrete substituted by 30~50% of the crushed aggregate can be applicated in site.

This study is aimed for investigating the influence of mortar on improved of surface shape of crushed sand, and analyzing the physical properties of fresh state and hardened state. By the test results, it was found that the flow value and bleeding ratio was increased, but the change of flow value according to time was decreased with the improved surface shape of crushed sand. Also, comparing improved of surface shape of crushed sand with not improved of surface shape of crushed sand on strength, compressive strength is about the same and flexural strength decrease in case of improved of surface shape of crushed sand.

The properties of Low-heat cement are especially in lower heat of hydration than that of other types of cement. In other respect, Low-heat concrete is more advantageous than OPC concrete in chemical resistance, long term age compressive strength, slump loss and resistance to seawater. This paper deals with 28 days age compressive strength and slump loss by elapsed time of mortar and concrete that made with Low-heat cement and 3 types of other cement.

As construction technology advances, most of concrete structures are becoming larger and taller. Therefore, high strength and quality concrete is necessary for them. So, the proposal of using belite cement is investigated to satisfy high flowing, low heat, and high strength. In this study, the compressive strength, tensile strength, and modulous of elasticity of concrete using belite cement was considered according to the mix proposition condition as a water-cement ratio, unit cement content, and sand percentage.

Recently as the development of a large-scale ocean structure or ocean is in progress, the importance of underwater concrete construction came to the fore. However, a problem with this underwater concrete construction is the segregation of cement and aggregate occurs when concrete is poured into the underwater. However, recently as an adhesiveness of the constituents of fresh concrete is increased even in our country, antiwashout concrete admixture were developed. The antiwashout concrete admixture can reduce the segregation significantly. Although this antiwashout underwater concrete is superior to the traditional underwater concrete in terms of durability, watertightness, stability, etc. But it is still unsatisfied due to the lack of criterion or construction experiences. Furthermore, because of an insufficiency of natural aggregate, the development of replacing aggregate came to be necessary. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of sea sand as a replacing aggregate and the characteristic change of antiwashout underwater concrete using river sand, sea sand, and blended sand (river sand:sea sand=3:7) through experimental researches.

In this paper, we described the basic elements (relative flowing area ratio and funeling velocity ratio in mortar, flowability and self-compactibility in concrete, and etc.) required for the maximum mix design of the super flowing concrete (SFC) using manufactured sand. Also, manufactured sand and fly ash were used for investigating characteristics of SFC through various experiments (replacement ratio of manufactured sand, optimum mix condition) before producing the concrete in batch plant. As the result of this project, the SFC using manufactured sand up to 50% showed high flowability and self-compactibility in fresh concrete. Furthermore, its compressive strength is higher than normal concrete without manufactured sand. From now on, this study may suggest how to apply manufactured sand in the SFC.

As the reinforced concrete structures are aged, repair and rehabilitation materials and techniques have ben developed. However, most of the repair materials and methods are imported from abroad and theoretical study and repairing techniques are also not well established yet. A specification for quality of repair materials should be established, in order to secure the stability and to improve the serviceability of the repaired structures. In this study, long term properties of repair materials such as thermal expansion coefficient, hardening shrinkage, creep, and chemical resistance have been tested. The material properties shows to be affected many actors such as curing period, temperatures, relative humidity, and etc. The repair material should be selected by considering the cause and shape of the defects, mix properties, workability, quality control of construction, and etc.

In this study, a predictive method which was modified from KIshi's model for the temperature development of concrete was developed by using mineral compounds of clinker and pozzolans. Temperature dependent heat generation of reaction was also considered. Specific heat considering the effect of mix proportion and temperature was calculated with experimental data in the literatures. Thermal conductivity considering the effect of mix proportion and temperature was experimentally investigated. Through this research it was found that the developed method considering thermal properties accurately predicted adiabatic temperature rise of concrete without the experiment. It was also found that the thermal conductivity of concrete could be predicted by the volume ratio of each component of mix proportion and was independent of temperature within the normal climatic range.

The objective of this study is to provide the information on the small-scale model mix proportion when the behavior of prototype concrete pavement is studied through small-scale model experiments. However it is difficult to obtain a model material to simulate the prototype concrete by scaling the individual components according to the laws of similitude. In this paper, the stress-strain behavior in uniaxial compression is used as a means to correlate materials similitude between the prototype and the model concrete. Based on th results of experiments, We compared the stress-strain curves of prototype and model concrete mixes using a nondimensional basis. In order to simulate the stress-strain curves of prototype concrete, it is important that various mix as of model concrete selected properly which are varied from aggregate grading, cement-aggregate and sand-aggregate ratio.

In this paper, the limit temperature for applying maturity method are discussed. 4 kinds of W/C in combination of 7kinds of curing temperature are selected as experimental parameters. According to the experimental results, high curing temperature and low W/C gain in strength rapidly. And maturity rule can be applied less than $30^{\cire}C$ in W/C of 30~60% in the conditions of this experiment.

In this study, mechanical properties of type V cement concrete with different curing temperature were investigated. The tests for mechancial properties, i.e., compressive strength and modulus of elasticity, were carried out on two kinds of type V cement concrete mixes. concrete cylinders cured at 10, 23, 35 and 50℃ were tested at 1, 3, 7 and 8 days. The 'rate constant model' was used to described the combined effects of time and temperature on compressive strength development. Test results show that concrete subjected to high temperature at early age attains greater strength than concrete to low temperature but eventually attains lower later-age strength than that. With type V cement concrete, the linear and Arrhenius rate constant models both accurately describe the development of relative strength as afunction of the equivalent age.

This study is to investigate properties of relationship between the heat of hydration of several type cements and the temperature of concrete in restraint condition. As the results, the heat of hydration is largely affected by the temperature of cementious materials. However, the heat of hydration of cement and temperature rise of concrete is differently resulted in the content of cement.

It is well known that concrete is typical porous material. We pay attention to Hansen's idea that concrete may be expected to act as semi-permeable membrane, and report the effect of concentration of solution and temperature on water flux in forward osmosis. In order to measuring volume of water flux from distilled water to solution of sodium chloride through hardened cement paste, specially designed apparatus was constructed, and the following result were obtained: (1) hardened cement paste acts as semi-permeable membrane, consequently, water flux in forward osmosis may occur. (2) Rate of water flux is proportion to concentration of dilute solution, and this suggests hardened cement paste is agreeable to the theory of membrane. (3) Effect of temperature on water flux is agreeable to Arrehenius equation and is great.

From the results of study on the electrical characteristics of heat-generation mortar used graphite as fine aggregates is summerized as following. The primary purpose of this study is the mixing ratio of graphite (35%, 50%/Sg), curing conditions (autoclave, steam, surface, underwater) and shape change (length, section of the electric heat-generation mortar). In case of the test condition with the steam curing condition appearance to most excellent heat-generation reproducibility. And temperature a coefficient of electric heat-generation mortar change from is in inverse proportion to the temperature a coefficient of direct proportion as the ratio of graphite mixing increased.

The maturity concept was adopted to predict the strength of concrete, which was subjected to same temperature conditions and variable curing conditions. Penetration test and compressive test were conducted to measure the initial and final setting time and the compressible strength of concrete specimen, respectively. Also, the temperature and time were recorded at some intervals of time for calculating the maturity. The initial and final setting were delayed as the w/c ratio increased and curing temperature decreased. The activating energy decreased as the w/c ratio increased. The relationships at the relative strength and the maturity were proposed at different w/c ratio for the same temperature curing condition, and these were applied for the variable curing conditions. The results indicated that the difference between the strength of the proposed and the specimen was big at 1 days's age but quite similar after 3 day's age.

The setting and hardening of concrete is accompanied by nonlinear temperature distribution caused by developing heat of cement hydration. expecially at early ages, nonlinear temperature distribution has a large influence n the crack evaluation. So the need to predict the exact temperature history in concrete has led to the examination thermal properties. In this study, the convection heat transfer coefficient is experimentally investigated which is one of the thermal properties in concrete. Furthermore, the result of the experiment is compared with those of analysis by the program which is developed in KAIST. As a result of comparison, the analytical results are in good approximation with experimental data.

In this experiment, there is a purpose to analysis the relationship of feature of compressive strength after fixing of remarkable element under the condition of initial curing temperature. According to this experiment, we get to the fallow result. In case of highest curing temperature, 3-day-strength become high but last revelation of strength become low among the condition of initial curing temperature, the highest curing temperature have an effect on revelation of strength by the application of cumulative temperature, we can get the shape of revelation of strength.

The present problem of this country building market in the face of 3D, in addition to a rise in construction cost, materials problems and opening a building market to foreign countries, is finding the efficient ways of overcoming these problems. So the efficacy of form work in technical improvement becomes important through scientific methods of the design and construction as advancement in th study of strength for Permanent form mortar is possible. According to the increment of polymer-cement ration, the degree of bending strength and compressive strength and impact strength increases. The optimum volume content of glass fiber seemed to be about 2.5% considering the distribution of glass fiber, workability and economy.

In this study, effects of carbon content and fineness of fly-ash on the workability an the strength development of concrete and investigated experimentally. Carbon content with 6 levels (0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7%) and fineness with 3 levels (4, 000, 5, 000, 6, 000 $\textrm{cm}^2$/g) are selected for test variables. Besides, the effect of fly-ash with variation of initial concrete temperature is tested. To measure slump and air losses, small laboratory agitator is used. As the results, the used AE admixture content to maintain constant initial air content is increased linearly with increasing carbon content in fly-ash. With increasing fineness of fly-ash, the strengths at 3 and 7 days are slightly increased, however, there is no clear difference among 28 day strengths within the scope of this study.

From a viewpoint of construction cost and preserving management of pavement, a policy of domestic pavement was gradually spreaded concrete pavement rather than asphalt. But the use of concrete with ordinary portland cement has shortages, such as dry-shrinkage, low flexural strength, etc. In order to overcome these problems, the concrete pavement using CSA expansive additive (Non-Shrinkage Cement) was studied and carried out the fie이 application. As the results, we find out Non-Shrinkage Cement that was distinguished in short-term construction by increasing flexural strength, shrinkage compensating and low-heat evaluation compared with OPC concrete.

The purpose of this study was to use daily waste incinerated ash, which was reclaimed worthlessly, as substitutes of fine aggregates in concrete. Various kinds of admixture was utilized to strengthen the cement mortar mixed with waste incinerated ash, and altered the curing condition to diminish the rate of expansion. By the results of this experiment, it was possible to produce the lightweight concrete, charactered with the gravity below 1.5 and over 160kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ compressive strength by replacing all fine aggregates with waste incinerated ash. It was also observed that the low temperature curing condition, lessoned gas exhausts, was effective to increase the strength of cement mortar.

The objective of this study is characterize of Mortar and Concrete mae with Cement made with Cement containing Fly ash as an additive. Cement samples were prepared using tow kinds of Fly ash, which containing unburnt Carbon content 3.5% and 4.5%. Fly ash content in cement was in range 3wt% to 13wt%. In consequence of various experiments, these cement samples satisfied specification of Type I cement, and it is possible to use Fly ash as an additive to Type I cement in this content.

In this paper, the properties of Interlocking block contained blast furnace slag cement are compared with that with O.P.C.(ordinary portland cement) and are analyzed under various mix proportions and the dosage of AE agent. According to the experimental results, compressive strength and flexural strength of interlocking block with blast furnace slag cement are lower than that with OPC. Also the strength and the ratio of absorption decrease with higher dosage of AE agent. although interlocking block with OPC has better performance than that of blast furnace slag in the side of quality, it is worth while to use the blast furnace slag as materials of interlocking block considered the side of recycling of resources and economy.

Strength experimental on mortar which use Quenched Blast-Furnace Slag as aggregate was carried our for a fundamental study of application possibility of Quenched Blast-Furnace Slag as aggregate. It gives the following results. The strength of mortar use Quenched Blast-Furnace Slag is decrease as substitution rate is higher. As W/C rate increase, the strength decrease, but the strength decrease of fine aggregate rate 1:3 is lower than 1:2. The relation with fine aggregate is that the amount of fine aggregate is inversely proportional to strength. Th relation with age is proportional to strength and strength rate of going is lower than general mortar in 28 age the change of strength proportionately with W/C rate is that as W/C rate increases, th strength is drop ; it shows that it has same tendency as general mortar sand or crushed sand, but while W/C rate increase the strength is as high as general mortar. The reason can be assumed that water content per unit needed to Quenched Blast-Furance Slag is more than in case of sand. In addition, the relation with substitution rate is that the strength is the strongest at substitution rate 25% and 50% ; that is , sometimes it is higher than mortar which use sand 100%. In addition, long age strength of mortar which use Quenched Blast-Furnace Slag as aggregate is about to be studied in the last.

Flow experimental on not to be solid mortar which use Quenched Blast-furnace Slag as a fine aggregate was carried out for basic research data about fundamental study of application possibility of Quenched Blast-furnace Slag as a fine aggregate. It gives following result. The substitution rate is inversely proportional to Flow and C/S-rate same that. The relation with W/C-rate augment appear proportional : in case of C/S-rate, 1:3 increasing degree is a half of sand mortar that. Consequencely, Quenched Blast-furnace Slag motar is a counteraction to Flow in as same water content per unit. But suitable substitution rate and C/S-rate influence a little to the mortar consistency. And that reason, if C/S-rate and substitution rate will be regulated when we mix the mortar with quenched Blast-furnace Slag. that will be economic mixture.

In this study, bottom ash, lightweight aggregate, and Expanded Polystyrene was used to lighten the mortar. In order to compensate the reduction of strength caused by lightening, the waste foundry sand produced as solid waste was substituted for fine aggregate. As the device of reducing the ratio of absorption, the procedure of mixture was altered to check the effectiveness of surface coating of porous lightweight aggregate. It was observed over 170kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ compressive strength at gravity about 1.3, an over 380kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at gravity about 1.7. the maximum strength was occurred when 30% of fine aggregate was replaced was replaced with waste foundry sand, and the ratio of absorption was decreased over 10% by changing the procedure of mixture.

The objective of this study is to develop the non crack ready mixed concrete and the high quality concrete under various addition ratios of expansive additives. According to the experiment results, when expansive additive are mixed in concrete mixture by about 6% per cement contents, in W/B of 45~55%, it is found that the strength increase and the shrinkage compensation can be achieved by about 2~3 times. And it is considered to produce high quality concrete and non crack ready mixed concrete.

The objective of this study is to improve the quality of concrete, which has been getting worse with high amount of unit water, by using Expansive Additives. 6% of addition ratios of expansive additives with the combination of 45%, 55% of W/B are selected under various amount unit water for this experiment. According to the experimental results, less than 180kg/$\textrm{m}^3$ of unit water has little influence on compressive strength and less length-change has been fond in 45% of W/B.

This paper tried to catch the fluidity and rheology nature of paste, using the W/P, flay-ash and additional amount of superplasticizing agent as experimental factor. Form result of experiment, as the amount of superplasticizing agent increased, fluidity increased and the rheology decreased. As the substitutional ratio increased fluidity decreased, the rheology tended to increase, additional amount of agent to gain high flowing range is different according to w/p, but this experiment shows about 0.5~1.0% in fly-ash 10~30% substitutional range, 1.0~1.5% in fly-ash 50%.

This study performed the experimental research comparing mechanical characteristics of the concrete replaced by the waste glass powder with the non-replaced concrete. The experimental parameters are kinds of the waste glass powder and replacement rate of the waste glass powder on the cement. As as result, the slump value, the flow value and the amount of air were decreased as the waste glass powder replacement rate increased, and the strength was increased when the waste glass powder replacement rate is 5%~15%.

Reinforced concrete structures built on the seashore or in seawater are damaged from saltwater which cause to accelerate corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete. Therefore, Corrosion of steel reinforcement of concrete structures become more and more serious, and prediction of service lives of concrete structures considering steel corrosion is needed much more. this research is to investigate basic physical properties of various corrosion inhibitors and to evaluate their corrosion resistance in concrete. The object of this study is develop appropriate corrosion protection systems so as to enhance the durability of concrete.

One of the principal causes of the deterioation of coastal concrete structures is the corrosion of reinforcing steel induced by the attack of chloride ions. An experimental study was performed to investigate the distribution of concentration of chloride ions in a coastal concrete structure and to measure the half-cell potential of embedded steel by using the copper-copper sulfate reference electrode. Quantitative analysis showed that the concentration of chloride ion in the aqueous phase near the surface of embedded steel exceeded a threshold value for corrosion, 0.05% by weight in concrete. The absolute value of half-cell potential at some members of embedded steel was measured to be higher than 350mV, indicating that the probability of corrosion is more than 90%. The prediction on corrosion based on the experimental measurements was confirmed by the observation of corrosion on the surface of steel bars in the concrete core taken out of the concrete structure.

Recently, premature reinforcement corrosion in concrete structures exposed to chloride containing environments has an important problem. This is due to an increasing use of marine aggregate of chloride containing admixture a the mixing stage and due to an increase of concrete construction in marine environments. In this study, the behavior of chloride ions introduced into concrete from concrete surface by a marine environment was modeled. The physicochemcial processes including the diffusion of chloride ion in aqueous phase of pores, the adsorption and desorption of chloride ions to and from the surface of solid phase of concrete, and the chemical reaction of chloride ion with solid phase were analyzed by using the finite element method. The results of this study may be used to predict the onset of reinforcement corrosion, and identify the maximum limit of chloride ions contained in admixtures.

An experimental study to evaluate corrosion protection systems was undertaken with 47 reinforced concrete slab specimens subjected to cyclic wet and dry saltwater exposure. Corrosion measurements included monitoring marcrocell corrosion currents, which are generally accepted in United States practice. Test results indicate that specimens containing 2 kg/$\textrm{m}^3$ of NaCl an exposed to a 10 percent of NaCl show high values of corrosion currents. For the specimens with water repellent membrane currents kept relatively low numerical values, while test specimens with surface corrosion inhibitor hyprotective systems show high values of corrosion currents. No clear indication of the corrosion inhibitor protective systems might be due to the extremely high chloride exposure of the specimens, which has brought the accelerated corrosion. It would be expected that evaluation of the corrosion protective systems need long-term measurement with specimen exposed les chloride but simulating the real condition.

Recent construction activities and maintenance of marine facilities have been accelerating to keep up with rapid economic growth in Korea. Marine concrete structures are exposed to salts an chloride from ocean environments. The corrosion of reinforcement steel caused by chloride-penetration into concrete may severely effect the durability of concrete structures. The objective of this research is to develop a durable concrete by investigating the corrosion resistance of various corrosion protection systems utilizing different water/cement ratio, silica fumes, corrosion inhibitors and etc. A tow-year verification test on various corrosion protection systems has been doing in the laboratory and at the seaside. Corrosion investigations on reinforcement steel are now under progress for more than 180 concrete specimen. Corrosion-related measurements include macrocell corrosion current, instant-off voltage between corroding and noncorroding reinforcement, chloride contents, the corroded surface areas on the reinforcement steel, and etc. A low level of corrosion is investigated on reinforcement steels in concrete specimen made with corrosion inhibitors or applied aqueous impregnating corrosion inhibitors into their surface, even though high chloride contents of concrete specimen.

Recent economic growths have accelerating much construction activities of various infrastructures, such as Express railway, Long-span bridges, Multi-story Buildings and etc. Reinforcement steel corrosion to be inevitably caused under the progress of these construction activities have been on and off serious problems in the site, which could incur another tragedic accident to us suffering from safety-ignorance disease. Thus, it is strongly requested to develop probable innovative products which could remove corrosive materials on rebars and also protect steel corrosion of reinforced concrete structures in the construction site. Hydro-Seal and Steel-Seal could solve these problems currently faced with in the construction site. The objective of this research is to experimentally evaluated the effect of Hydro-Seal and Steel-Seal in reinforced concrete structures, of which usage might affect the bond strength between steel and concrete, long-term compressive strength of concrete, corrosion resistance and etc. Related test results show that appropriate dosage of Hydro-Seal and Steel-Seal in reinforced concrete structures didnot affect physical properties of reinforced concrete structures.

Corrosion of steel reinforcing in concrete deteriorated by freezing/thawing and carbonation was characterized. Concrete specimens were prepared using various kinds of cements such as ordinary portland cement (type I), low heat portland cement (type IV, belite rich cement), sulphate resistance portland cement (type V), blast furnace slag portland cement and ternary blended cement. Of various cements, type V and type IV with lower $C_3A$ content revealed better steel corrosion resistance after freezing/thawing and carbonation. $C_3A$ content in cement might affect freezing/thawing resistance in sea water.

Generally the corrosion expansion of the steel due to outdoor corrosive environmental factor brings about serious problem on the durability of concrete structures. It is the purpose of this study to see whether adapted sacrificial anode method is effective or not. from the experimental results. the potential of steel in concrete in case of adapting the sacrificial anode method satisfies protection standard value (less than -850mV vs CSE).

In this paper, we carried out the fundamental experiments on the resistance of chemical attack of mortar using the electric arc furnace slag as fine aggregate. The mortar specimens made from the electric arc furnace slag (EAF slag) as fine aggregate were immersed in artificial seawater and two sorts of chemical solutions, and measured to investigate the change of compressive strength and weight.

The sea water resistance of cement and concrete must be compared when it used for construction in the ocean. The sea water resistance of the concrete specimens using three types of cements such as ordinary Portland cement, sulfate resistance Portland cement, blastfurnace slag cement were studied. In this study, an accelerated test for access sea water resistance by subjecting the concrete specimens to repeated cycles of concentrated sea water immersion and hot wind drying was employed. This study proved that sulfate resistance Portland cement had higher resistance for sea water.

Air voids existed in hardened concrete have an important influence on concrete deterioration such as carbonation, freezing and thawing, and corrosion of embedded steel in concrete. Therefore it is very significant to investigate the pore structure of system (size, number and continuity of air voids) to solve the reason caused concrete deterioration. The purpose of this study is to develop th standard method of measuring air voids which affect properties in hardened concrete using image analyzing system. This paper presents the settlement of rapid and exact experimental method which extracts fine bubbles, calculates the number of air voids, and determines air-voids distributions using image analyzing system with computer.

Recently, High Range Water Reducing Admixture be used increasingly in other to improve the demanded properties (fluidity, strength, durability etc.) and workability in concrete. These kinds of agent govern quality characteristics (air content, setting time, slump, bleeding etc) by the difference of its dispersing mechanism and performance in manufacture of flowed concrete. Accordingly, in this study, for the purpose of high quality construction in site, the comparative experiment of dispersing ability due to commercially available three types of agent were carried out in paste, mortar and concrete using tow types of cement (I, V). In conclusion, the bleeding reduction by the dispersing ability of agents was verified in the fresh properties of flowed concrete with sea water resistance.

At the result, the first crack load, maximum load and energy absorption capacity were increased remarkably as steel fiber contents wee increased. And we found that the deflection of slab at same load ere decreased as steel fiber contents were increased, too. As the aspect ration was increased, the first crack load, maximum load and energy absorption capacity were increased.

In this study, the width and size of crack reduced remarkably and the progress of cracks were restrained by the steel fiber contents increasing, and in the case of PFRC the occurrence of initial crack reduced conspicuously. Accordingly, the addition of steel fiber in Reinforced Concrete Columns considerably prevent an unexpected buckle and rupture, secure durability and stability of columns.

During recent years the durability of concrete structures has attracted considerable interest in concrete practice, material research and long-term deformation. To preserve the brittleness of concrete as well as energy absorption and impact resistance, amount of fiber usage has greatly increased year to year in the field of public works. When fly ash, fine powder, mixed into concrete, it condensed the void of concrete structure. Expecially, there's a great effect for strength improvement of concrete by initial pozzolanic reactions. Pozzolan reaction, between cement particle and fly ash, can elaborate the micro structure of matrix. So it was able to improve the effect of fiber reinforced by increased adhesion between cement paste and steel fiber. And so, in this paper, we dealt SFRC for the purpose of efficiently using of industrial by-products and its economical manufacturing. Also we performed the test for durability such as chemical resistance, freeze-thaw resistance and accelerated carbonation of SFRC using fly ash.

The fly ash contents were varied from 0% to 20% of cement weight to explore the effect of fly ash addition with steel fiber reinforced concrete. as the result, the tensile strength, flexural strength and flexural toughness were increased remarkably as steel fiber contents were increased to 2.0 vol.%. Also, the steel fiber reinforced concrete containing 10% fly ash developed the highest strength. In the same contents of steel fiber, the flexural toughness characteristics show excellent when fly ash contents were 10% and steel fiber contents were 1.5 vol%.

With the aid of advanced structural engineering, the construction of infrastructures has been recently accelerating to keep up with rapid economic growth. Construction activities and operation of transportation facilities cause civil petitions associated with vibration-induced damages or nuisances. As part of the decrease of vibration induced damage, the objective of this study is to develop vibration-controlled concrete with vibration-reduced materials, which can be recycled from obsolete materials, such as aged tires, plastics and etc. Appropriate mix proportion has been used for making 10 reinforced concrete panels with vibration-reduced materials, which have been tested to investigate on vibration reduction capability, based on the time and frequency domain analysis, and vibration velocity level analysis. Vibration-reduced mixtures are latex, styrofoam, rubber powder and plastic resin, which have been determined to by reduce vibration.

The polymer mortars with various mix proportions are prepared, and tested for flexural and compressive strengths, adhesion in tension, and the aspects of lining surface and workability are evaluated. Form the test results, it is apparent that the appropriate polymer mortars of lining to concrete pipe can be produced. The flexural and compressive strengths of polymer mortar for lining are affected by type of resin, and aggregates content, and water content at the surface of concrete pipe is important factor for improvement in adhesion of polymer mortar. It is obvious that the economical polymer mortars having an excellent cost performance ration can be produced through this study.

In this study, permeable polymer concretes using unsaturated polyester (UP) resin with binder contents of 6, 7 and 8%, filler-binder ratios of 0, 0.5, 1.0%, and various sand and aggregate contents are prepared, and tested for compressive and flexural strengths, length change and water permeability. The effects of the mix proportioning factors on the strength properties, length change and coefficient of permeability of the permeable polymer concrete are discussed. From the test results, increase in the compressive strength and decrease in the coefficient of permeability of permeable polymer concrete are clearly observed with increasing filler-binder ratio.

For the Belite high strength concrete columns and normal concrete columns having different core sizes, lateral reinforcement ratios and spacings, the experiment are performed and the behaviors of the columns like the confining effect are analyzed and discussed.

Bond strength of reinforcing bar to high-performance concrete using Belite cement is explored using beam end test specimen. The key parameters for the bond test are slump of concrete, top bar effect, and strength of concrete in addition to concrete covers. Specimen failed in the typical brittle bond failure splitting the concrete cover as the wedging action. The test results show that for the group with portland cement I using superplasticizer additional slump does not decrease the bond strength of the top bar is less than bond strength of bottom bar, but the top bar factor satisfy the modification factor for top reinforcement. The result also show that bond strength is function of square root of concrete compressive strength and cover thickness. More detailed evaluation will be conducted from the test specimen with high strength concrete using the belite cement.

This study was conducted to evaluate durability of high-strength light-weight aggregate concretes which are increasingly demanded recently. Two different artificial light-weight aggregates were used and two levels of high-strength concretes were made using w/c of 33% and 37% for target strength of 500kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 400kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively. Cylinder specimens($\phi$=10cm and h=20cm) were made and treated with freezing-and-thawing(F/T) cycle at $-18^{\cire}C$ and $4^{\cire}C$. Dynamic modulus of elasticity and surface condition were evaluated with F/T cycle increase. The results showed that durability of the light-weight aggregate concretes was worse than that of conventional concrete, and the light-weight high-strength concrete with w/c=37% had the better durability than the one with w/c=33%.

High strength concrete has an advantage of strength capacity and stiffness especially for column elements. This paper presents an experimental study of high strength concrete tied columns subjected to eccentric loading. The main variables included in this test were concrete compressive strength, steel amount, eccentricity, and slenderness ratio. The concrete compressive strength varied from 34.9Mpa(356kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ ) to 93.2Mpa(951kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ ) and the longitudinal steel ratios were between 1.1% and 5.5%. The eccentricity was selected for the different failure modes, i.e., compression control, balanced point, and tension control. The slenderness ratio varied from 19 to 61. The column specimens with same slenderness ratio but with different concrete compressive strength were constructed and tested. The purpose of this paper is to show failure modes of high strength reinforced concrete columns.

The use of high strength concrete in the fabrication and construction of prestressed concrete beam bridges can result in the increase of girder spacings for standard shapes, as well as the increase of span lengths. The increase of girder spacings corresponds to the reduction of the required number of girders. This study shows that the use of high strength concrete make prestressed concrete beam bridges the economical alternative to any other bridge types. Also, this study has the purpose of giving aids to design of prestressed concrete beam. To achieve this purpose this study provides the plots resulting from research on relationships between the concrete strength of prestressed concrete beam, girder spacing and the number of strands in various span lengths.

In recent years the research and development about the new material proceeds rapidly and actively in building industry. We are concerned with high-strength concrete as a new material. As the building structure becomes bigger, higher and more specialized, so does the demand of material and member with high strength for building expands greatly. In the future, we will quite need to research repair and rehabilitation to make high strength concrete structural building for our safe. So, I did an study on carbon fiber sheet rehabilitation(CFSR) of reinforced high strength concrete beams. The carbon fiber reinforced plastic(CFRP) bonding method is widely used for reinforcing the existing concrete structure among the various methods. The test results indicate that CFS is very effective for strengthening the damaged beams and controlling deflections of the repaired beams. When carbon fiber sheet rehabilitation of reinforced high strength concrete beams happened diagonal crack, the increase in the number of CFS layer didn't effect the increase in strength of beams. Also, by changing the CFS stick position gave diversified ultimate load in CFSR beams.

Highrise concrete buildings are very sensitive to cumulative and differential shortening of their vertical element such as wall and columns. Inelastic deformation due to creep and shrinkage consist of various factors and load history af actual building is very complicated. Therefore, for the accurate prediction and compensation of axial shortening, special efforts in design and construction phase are required to ensure long-term serviceability and strength requirement. In this paper, axial shortening estimation and compensation procedure is presented, which utilized experimentally determined concrete properties and preliminary load history and computerized approach, in case of Plaza Rakyat office tower, 79-story reinforced concrete building under construction in Malaysia.

In the paper, a simplified method for nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete structures is presented, which is based on timeoshenko beam theory and constitutive equations that are given by the relation of average stress and average strain for concrete and reinforcing bars. Especially, this method consider shear deformation and determine the failure mode. In this paper, 1-D beam element model and program considering shear deformation are suggested. In addition, program procedure is presented briefly and the results are plotted with test examples.

Two-way concrete slab is often modeled as an orthotropic plate. In the modeling, flexural rigidities of the slab which depend upon the re-bar quantity have to be taken into account. Elastic equivalence technique in which the equilibrium and compatibility of the cross-section of slab satisfied is utilized to determine th flexural rigidities. In the analysis Navier's method is applied on the concrete slab with all edges simply supported under inform lateral load. In addition to the analysis using orthotropic plate theory, finite element method is also adopted to suggest the finite element modeling and to investigate the applicability of the method. Results obtained by both methods were compared and it is observed that the difference of the results was increased as the ratio of re-bar quantity increased.

In this analysis, four kinds of the earthquake waves are used. Through elasto-plastic seismic response analysis of reinforced concrete building, we could estimate dynamic behaviour of building.

In this study, nine reinforced concrete infilled frames involved bare frames were tested during vertical and cyclic loads simultaneously. This test programs were carried to investigate the horizontal strength and the crack propagation in variance with hoop reinforcement ratio. All specimens were modeling in one-third scale size. In this experimental program structural performance of reinforced concrete shear wall were focus at connection types. Based on the test results, the following conclusions are made. In the boundary column member of reinforced concrete shear wall, increasing the ratio of hoop bar in two or three times, in the fully babel type, the shear and horizontal strength of specimens were increased 1.1-1.2 times than that of fully rigid frame. And infilled shear wall specimen were increased 1.17-1.27 times than that. Fully rigid babel type shear wall specimens were increased 5.7~8.0 times, and infilled shear wall specimens were increased about 4.0~5.6 times than that of infilled shear wall specimens.

The purpose of this study is to develop the analytical model for the reinforcement bar connection in group-filled steel pipe sleeve, which consists of beam elements for the reinforcement bar and shell elements for the sleeve and the mortar and spring elements for the bond stress-slip relationship. In the reinforcement bar connection using grout-filled steel pipe sleeve, the major variables are the bond stiffness between reinforcement bar and mortar($K_1$) and between sleeve and mortar($K_2$). It is nearly difficult to predict the exact bond stiffness with the experimental results. Therefore, The linearly elastic analyses using ABAQUS, FEM package show the validity of the mathematical equations for the bond stiffness and the choice of material elements in this paper. To predict the behaviour between yield and ultimate tensile strength, the nonlinear analyses must be performed henceforth.

Design strength of structural members could be determined by applying a strength reduction factor to nominal strength. At the beginning point of the transition region for the strength reduction factor, P=0.1$\sigma$$_{ck}A_g$, only sectional area and concrete strength are adopted as the variables of P=0.1$\sigma$$_{ck}A_g$. Therefore, P=0.1$\sigma$$_{ck}A_g$ is the empirically adopted which does not consider steel ratio, steel yielding stress, and steel arrangement. So, this research was perpormed the computer program for the analysis of axial force-moment-curvature relationship of reinforced concrete columns by sectional behaviour nonlinear analysis using a concrete compressive stress-strain curve, in order to investigate the ductility of reinforced concrete columns. As a result, ductility indicies of axial force, P=0.1$\sigma$$_{ck}A_g$, represented the lack of consistency of the indicies value for the various sections.

Topology optimization of a concrete structure is discussed using an Evolutionary Structural Optimization(ESO) method introduced by Xie and Steven. During the evolution process low stressed materials are progressively removed from the structure. This paper discussed a proper rejection criterion(RC) to get a more reasonable topology of concrete structure. Some examples are presented to illustrate the optimum topology achieved by such a procedure.

Since the length of massive wall-structure is generally longer and larger than its thickness and a lift height of concrete of placement, cracks induced by hydration heat are governed by outer structural restriction rather than inner one. However, the degree of restriction control is expected to be affected by the sizes of wall thickness, length and a lift height. Thus, this analytical study aims at the development of relationship among those to minimize thermal cracks. In addition, the effect of types of cement on the thermal heats and stresses is evaluated for anti-sulphate and 2blended Portland cements concrete. It was found from analytical study that a lift height of concrete placement is the most important factor controlling thermal cracks, and the increase of lift heights is not always detrimental to structural safety.

New typology of failure mechanisms for uniform compression fields are presented based on the classical theory of plasticity, in particular th normality rule, and the limit theorem. The concrete is assumed as a rigid-perfectly plastic material obeying the modified Coulomb failure criteria with zero tension cut-off. The failure mechanisms are capable of explaining flexural types of crushing failure in uniaxial uniform compression stress fields which are called struts in truss models. The failure mechanisms consist of sliding failure along straight failure lines or hyperbolic failure curves and rigid body rotation. The failure mechanisms involving straight failure lines are explained by constant strain expansion in the first principal direction and rigid body rotation motion. The failure mechanisms presented are applied to the explanation of bond failure of bar combined with concrete crushing failure and flexural crushing failure of concrete.

In this study, a quantitative analysis technique for the damage process of reinforced concrete beams under repeated shear loading is proposed, which can express the progressively increasing strain and stiffness reduction. The analysis technique is mainly based on the modified compression field theory and scalar damage concept. which describe the strain and stress configuration in the shear zone by considering the 2-dimensional effect, and express the degradation of principal compressive strut by cyclic strain increment, secant modulus decrement, and modifying the parabolic stress strain relationship. The analysis of the response of RC beams under repeated shear-flexure loading has been carried out and compared with the experimental results. The present theory may efficiently be used to evaluate the deflection and strain accumulation under repeated loadings.

Conventional confinement reinforcement for rectangular columns consist of closely spaced perimeter hoops, overlapping hoops, and crossties. One of the potential alternatives to conventional reinforcement is a welded reinforcement grid, prefabricated to required size and volumetric ratio of transverse reinforcement. An experimental investigation was carried out to investigate the strength and deformability of reinforced concrete columns confined with welded reinforcement grids. The comparisons of the envelopes of experimental force-displacement hysteric relationships for columns confined by welded grids with analytically generated force-displacement curves for columns confined with conventional ties. In general, inelastic deformability beyond the peak, as indicate by the slope of the cuvers, was similar to those indicated by columns with conventional ties. The superior performance of columns with welded grids may be attributed to the improved confinement characteristics of grids associated with increased rigidity of welded ties.

This research has improved composite joint system of R/C column and steel beam developed at previous study. In this system, the shear force occurred at beam is transmitted by bearing resistance of stiffness and moment is resisted by tension capacity of coupling members. As the preliminary step of stress transfer tests of this system, welding performance test of coupling member such as round bar or square bar which has a role of moment transfer has been carried out. From the test, this element has a good welding performance and enough resistance capacity compared to design force.

This study presents the techniques to manufacture the model concrete and model reinforcement for the 1/5-scale 3-story reinforced concrete frame. The used model concrete has sufficient workability but shows a little lower strength than expected model steel was made of commercial $\phi$3.2mm and $\phi$2.0mm wire by using deforming device and vacuum tube electric furnace.

The experimental results are summarized for the strength and displacement of each specimen.

The compressive strength of horizontal joints in precast concrete large panel structures depends on parameters such as grout and panel strength, detail of joint, joint moment, width of grout column etc. As the panels are only connected at the pocket, it results in the reduction of compressive strength area. The purposes of this study are to develop the suitable grout material the joint pocket and to enable us to evaluate structural capacity. The validity of the design formulas provides us more economic system in construction. Test results of 15 specimens show that the proper construction procedure and grouting material develop the sufficient compressive strength of the wall as monolithic system.

Studies on the second-order analysis of reinforced concrete columns have been chiefly dealt with symmetric section under uniaxial loading. In practical situations, however, columns are subjected to biaxial loadings. Therefore, for more accurate prediction of the behavior of concrete columns under biaxial loading, the interaction between bending moments of major and minor axes should be considered. Recently Kim & Lee proposed a numerical method of predicting the behavior of concrete columns under biaxial loading. In this paper, to investigate the behavior of concrete columns under biaxial loading and verify the validity of proposed method, a series of test were carried out for sixteen tied reinforced columns with 100${\times}$100mm square and 200${\times}$100mm rectangular sections under various loading conditions. The length of columns was 1,300mm and the concrete strength was 28MPa. The boundary conditions at the both ends were hinged and end eccentricities were equal(400mm). Proposed numerical analyses applied to the test piece were performed to predict behavior of concrete columns with square and rectangular sections under various loading conditions. Test results were also compared with those using the moment magnifier method in ACI code. The test results showed that the moment magnifier method is conservative.

Recently, many researchers have performed R&D about strengthening of R/C with steel plates, carbon fiber sheets. aramid fiber sheets and glass fiber sheets, and so on. However most of research were limited in study of flexural strengthening of R/C beams. This paper shows the results of an experimental study on shear reinforcement of deep beams using Glass Fiber Sheet in relation to shear-span ratio. strengthening orientation and anchorage. The results prove that shear failure is governed by reinforced orientation. adherence and anchorage. Additional anchorage of fibers does not only cause the improvement in the internal resistance, but also control the brittle shear failure of specimen after reaching the maximum load.

Further to static test on aged RC bridge slabs strengthened with TYFO glassfibers, fatigue tests have been done on aged RC bridge slabs with and without glassfibers. It can be seen from the test that fatigue behaviors of aged RC bridge slabs stiffened with TYFO glassfibers have been by and large improved comparing with those of aged RC bridge slabs without TYFO, but fatigue failure modes have not been changed become of bonding failure between tensile reinforcements and concrete. It is in particular noted from the test that bonding failure between concrete surface and TYFO have been observed. Further tests are strongly necessiated to develop appropriate anchoring method for improving fatigue life of aged RC bridge slabs strengthened with TYFO glassfibers.

Recently, TYFO glassfibers have been used for strengthening n aged RC bridge slabs because of low material cost and easy repairing work.

Further tests have been performing on aged RC bridge slabs strengthened with carbon fiber strips.

Recently, the prestressed concrete box girder bridges are increasingly built at various locations in the world. The mechanical and structural behavior of prestressed concrete brides varies because of time-dependent material properties and sequential change of structural system due to stepwise construction. The time-dependent behavior of concrete is of importance in the design and construction of segmentally constructed and cast-in-place prestressed concrete box girder bridges. The structural response is affected b variations in creep, shrinkage properties of concrete. In this study, the example of time-dependent deformations is extended to establish how the variability in concrete properties affects the accuracy of the calculated deformations in such a bridge, and finally the results are discussed.

Especially, the behavior of RC beams subjected to flexure-shear force has been focused. The test results show that the deflections of beam and the strains of longitudinal steels and stirrups under cyclic loads increase with constant rate, and these increases depend on diagonal crack openings and strain increases. The present study provides useful data for the analysis of damage accumulation of reinforced concrete beams under repeated loadings.

Polymer cement mortar which is used as material for aging concrete structures is generally mixed manually and applied on the job site. but, to secure the required quality of the mortar, pre-mixed polymer cement mortar is favored. This study was initiated to four different pre-mixed polymer cement mortars which are produced in Korea. The for pre-mixed mortars were selected and tested with respect to physical and mechanical properties an proved that their qualities were better than those of common cement concrete mortars.

Repair and rehabilitation of existing structures is becoming a major part of construction, both in the industrially developed and developing countries. Advanced high strength composites are being utilized more and more for these applications because they are much stronger than steel, non-corrosive, and light. The light weight reduces the construction cost and time sustantially. The fibers are normally made of aramid, carbon, or glass and the binders are typically epoxies or esters. One major disadvantage of these composites is the vulnerability to fire. In most instance, the temperature cannot exceed $300^{\cire}C$. Since carbon and glass can substain high temperatures, an inorganic polymer is being evaluated for use as a matrix. The matrix can sustain more than $1000^{\cire}C$. The results reported in this paper deal with the mechanical properties of carbon composites made with the inorganic polymer and the behavior strengthened reinforced concrete beams. The results indicate that the new matrix can be successfully utilized for a number of applications.

Recently, carbon Fiber sheet (CFS) is frequently used for strengthening deteriorated concrete structures. To strengthening damaged structures, the property and characteristic of the bond between CFS and the concrete surface must be understood. The tensile test of single lap shear specimen was performed to study bond strength, bond stress distribution and stress transfer between CFS and concrete surface according to the bond length. Based on the test results, there were ultimate influence length (UIL) in which bond stress was distributed, and ultimate strain reduction ratio (USRR) by which strain was reduced linearly. Bond resisting force (BRF) was estimated by UIL and USRR, and which was compared with ultimate loads. According to the results of comparison, it was shown that ultimate bond strength could be estimated reasonablely by BRF.

RC structures can deteriorate for many defective factors. In the repair and retrofit works of concrete, epoxy resins are widely used as repair materials. The object of this study is to investigate the material properties and durabilities of epoxy resins which are commonly used in repairing concrete. The material properties such as line-expansion modulus, viscosity, microstructure and physical parameter as well as the durabilities such as gravity change, tensile strength, elongation change were carried out.

In this paper, sixteen column specimens were tested under the concentrated and excentric load condition to examine the structural behavior of strengthened columns. 16 column specimens were divided into four groups. One group is not strengthened, the other three groups are strengthened by the materials : 1) steel plate, 2) carbon fiber sheet, and 3) glass fiber sheet, each group is composed of four specimens. As a result, strengthened columns have larger bearing capacity and energy absorption after ultimate load than unstrengthened columns. The column group strengthened with steel plate has the best bearing capacity among the strengthened column groups. Also, the columns strengthened with the carbon fiber sheet are similar to glass fiber sheet in bearing capacity. If necessary to strengthen columns in trouble, car should be taken to treat the joint between beam and column because of crack propagation in tension side.

Deflection, failure load, strains of reinforcing bar, strains of sheet and plates are measured during tests. The failure mode and ultimate load are analyzed from these measured data. Test result shows that the width of cracks and the magnitude of existing load do not make any difference of ultimate flexural capacity.

Flexural capacity of repaired RC beams except the polymer-repaired RC beams are similar to that of the control beam. In the flexural capacity, the RC beams treated with chipping show better results than the RC beam without chipping. The various repair lengths of the repaired RC beam are not affected to the flexural capacity.

The new type of perforated block may be used as an alternative for shore protection facility.

Nowadays domestic building market has undergone several changes. Labor costs are too high and materials are in short supply. These raised building costs and therefore lowered productivity. At this point it is the best way to reduce manual labor and find alternative materials that can improve productivity. In the building process form work take the most part of it. So many formwork systems were developed to reduce the construction period and labor cost. But their technical improvements just limited to adjust form shape-the role of form is not changed. This research developed a new formwork systems that can function to unify or minimze the unit process with cast-in-place type permanent form. In former study (reported in '97 spring seminar), we did the assembling test with column and beam clamps. Furthermore, In this paper, we examined the total systems of form erections and evaluated the structural performances.

The comprehensive performance of the water-proofing materials which are sealer, liquid and preformed membranes were investigated as basic experimental data for guide line of field workers. The water-proofing performance, shear strength and bond strength were tested under the ambient temperature of $20^{\cire}C$ and after 60 cycles of freezing and thawing ($-17.8^{\cire}C$~$4^{\cire}C$, 6cycle/day). The performance includes workability, permeability, cost and the influence of water-proofing materials to environment.

Recently, on account of the lack of skilled labor and the increase of labor costs, it has been more difficult the construction environment. Now new methods were developed and used many places. This study is concerning the structural performance of Composite Form Panel Method-one of the new methods-of the wall type. It is available to make monolithic system of bearing wall and half slab. This paper presented design and product data by experiments.

An integral abutment bridge refers to a jointless bridge with capped-pile stub type abutment. It has been used for more than 50 years in the United States and Canada. This paper briefly describes design and utilization of the PC beam integral abutment bridge which is adapted for Korea and shows its excellent performance compared with that of a jointed bridge. This study introduces the characteristics of structural behaviors of the integral bridge and also mentions about its attributes and limitations.

This paper is fundamental study to develop ceiling materials, using the properties of Zeolite, stone dust and sludge for the purpose of prevention of environmental pollution and reuse of industrial wastes. According to latin square method, We estimated to the significant level ad optimum level for a significant factor, and investigated to the significant degree to extend each factor for required capacity. Thus, we investigated for required capacity in ceiling material such as, compressive and bending strength, absorptivity and thermal conductivity.

In domestic, it is not a little results to use natural mineral, stone and sludge as a construction materials. Accordingly, it is required to study for higher application from of resources these materials in its economic and environmental aspects. So, the purpose of this study is to develop the excellent construction materials, a as compare with existing floor materials in material capacity and economic aspects, using natural zeolite, stone dust and sludge. In this viewpoint, this paper investigated to the required capacity such as, compressive strength, bending strength and absorption according to experiment.

Deterioration of pavements or tunnels primarily from the existence of voids under the pavements or tunnel linings. To detect these voids effectively by non-destructive testes, a method using radar was proposed. In this research, the detection of shape of voids by radar image processing is investigate. The experiments and simulation were conducted to detect voids in or under concrete pavements for tunnel linings) with reinforcing bars. From the results, the fundamental algorithm for tracing the voids, improving the horizontal resolution of the object image and detecting shape of objects, was verified.

The current study is a part of series o research about the development of new superstructure system to overcome the engineering problems in the design of bridges of 30m to 45m in span length using the existing bridge systems. The basic concept of new system is the continuation of adjacent tow simple spans composed of the precast prestressed concrete U-type sections. The partial post tensioning method is applied to create the continuity. In this study, the new technique was introduced and applied with an example design of tow span of 40m in span length to find the possibility for practical application as the feasibility study. The obtained results show that the new splicing method is expected to offer significant economical and serviceability advantages.
