A study on strength decrease due to water contents through infiltration has been conducted with 9 rocks of high frequency in Korea. It has been proved that a strength decrease through infiltration has high dependence on rock strengths ranges while the species of rock have no impact. It has been found that the weaker the rocks are, the more sensitive the strength decreases are, and that water content of 0.5% corresponds to strength decrease of almost 50%. Another finding is that most rocks have a failure when water content is about one quarter~one half of its saturation. It has been shown that the weakening of rock strength due to water content results from leaching and the weakening of bonding strength of cementation materials.

There are many types of remodeling, however, engineers and architectures preferred to merge two or more separate units to one very spacious unit. Performing this type of remodeling, in the case of wall dominant apartments, requires partial removal of structural wall causing a concern of structural integrity. However, there are insufficient studies about partial removal, that is, openings. Presently, ACI standard have no clear way to evaluate the effect of opening on the structural wall. AIJ has the provision about strength reduction factor '$\gamma$'. However, this reduction factor cannot exactly evaluate the reduction effect of openings because this factor '$\gamma$' was determined through the elastic analysis. Therefore, in this study, 2 structural wall specimens were tested and many test results from previous studies were collected. Using these data, this study performed statistical analysis about strength of structural wall which have the opening in wall panel. And this study performed parametric study verifying shear strength reducing effect by opening area. In the results of statistical study, previous reduction factor show very conservative results because this equation did not consider other factors, reinforcement ratio and aspect ratio of openings, which was affect the shear strength of shear walls. Therefore we performed parametric study based on the test data and suggest new equation for shear strength reduction factor '$\gamma$'.

The objective of this paper is to explore the possibility of reuse of waste vegetable oil (WO) as an autogenous shrinkage reducer for high strength concrete and to compare the amount of autogenous shrinkage of the mortar using existing shrinkage reducing agent(SR) and expansive additives(EA). According to test results, as the dosages of WO increased, flow value exhibited to decrease, while the use of SR increased flow value. For the effect of WO on strength, although the use of SR and WO resulted in a slight decrease in compressive strength at early age, at 91 days they had similar strength level of the plain mixture. For autogenous shrinkage, as expected, the addition of WO, SR and EA resulted in a decrease of autogeneous shrinkage considerably especially, WO had superiority in autogenous shrinkage reducing effect compared with the case of SR and EA.

Studies aimed at reducing the occurrence of cracks by the shrinkage of concrete are in demand because the repair and reinforcement for cracks caused by declining concrete durability costs the user to maintain the concrete structure. In particular, in underground power facilities for power transmission, the cost is a heavy burden to repair and reinforce. For this reason, underground power facilities demanded effective methods for crack reduction at the engineering design step. This study, as a part of the development of shrinkage reducing agent for low shrinkage concrete on underground power facilities, investigated TEA to complement the shrinkage reducing agent to improve the early strength of concrete. In the case of TEA 3% as a shrinkage reducing agent, the early strength was improved significantly, and the shrinkage reducing effect was excellent. In addition, TEA 3.0 % and the shrinkage reducing agent 2.0 % showed excellent shrinkage property and compressive strength. On the other hand, more study of shrinkage reducing materials, including performance reviews on the shrinkage reducing materials with variable factors and type of materials, will be needed to generalize these results.

This article presents the results of experimental study that investigates the effect of filler and shrinkage reducing agent influencing on the strength properties of MMA-modified polymer paste that was produced to develop the surface-repair and coating materials of the concrete structures. Results show that the flexural and compressive strengths of the polymer paste increased 29 and 27%, respectively, when the aluminum hydroxide completely replaced the calcium carbonate as the filler Furthermore, when the shrinkage reducing agent was used 30%, both strengths decreased about 29% comparing to when the agent was not used. As in the cases of flexural and compressive strengths, the adhesive strength increased as the content of aluminum hydroxide as the filler increased, and it decreased as the content of shrinkage reducing agent increased. The adhesive strength with a dry concrete substrate turned out to be $30{\sim}40%$ higher than that with a wet concrete substrate.

굳지 않은 콘크리트의 슬럼프손실을 저감시키기 위한 목적으로 고로슬래그 미분말 및 플라이애쉬의 혼합비율과 혼화제의 첨가방법을 변화시킨 콘크리트의 믹싱후 경과시간에 따른 슬럼프 변화에 대하여 고찰하였다. 연구결과 보통포틀랜드시멘트에 고로슬래그 비분말 또는 플라이애쉬를 혼합한 콘크리트가 혼화재를 혼합하지 않은 콘크리트보다 슬럼프손실을 줄일 수 있었으며, 고로슬래그 미분말과 플라이애쉬를 각각 50 및 5%를 혼합한 3성분계 콘크리트의 경우 슬럼프손실을 저감시키는데 유효하였다. 또한 혼화제의 일부를 15분후 분할하여 후첨가하는 혼합방법이 굳지않은 콘크리트의 슬럼프손실을 저감시키는데 가장 큰 효과가 있다. 한편 혼화재를 혼합한 3성분계 보통강도용 및 고강도용 콘크리트의 재령 28일까지의 압축강도는 혼화재를 혼합하지 않은 콘크리트보다 작았으나 재령 91일 압축강도는 31% 및 15%정도 크게 증가하였다.

Environmental pollution problems are occurring due to the negative treatment of basalt waste in Jeju Island. This study identifies the characteristics of permeable block with basalt with physical and chemical adsorption mechanisms and examines their applicability and functionality as building materials. This experiment is basic data for evaluating the functionality of the permeable block by analyzing flexural strength, compressive strength, permeability coefficient, carbon dioxide, and fine dust adsorption rate by producing a permeable block using a basalt waste rock. As the basalt waste stone replacement rate increased, the flexural strength and compressive strength tended to decrease, and as the replacement rate increased, the water permeability coefficient, absorption rate, carbon dioxide, and fine dust adsorption rate tended to increase. Therefore, it is judged that the permeable block using the basalt waste rock is superior to the existing permeable block.

현재 우리나라는 레저선박 및 중소형 선박, 연안소형어선에 대부분 사용되는 재질은 강도가 높고 내양품성이 우수한 FRP를 사용하고 있다. 하지만 FRP선박의 폐선 시 환경문제와 자원재활용, 선체중량에 연비 및 대기오염등에 의해 소형선박 중심으로 알루미늄선 전환이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 알루미늄 선체가 적용된 멀티하우스보트에 알루미늄선 구조기준에 따른 슬래밍하중을 적용하여 구조 강도평가를 실시하였으며, 그 결과를 통해 각 부재별 민감도 평가를 수행하여 알루미늄 구조강도기준을 만족함과 동시에 중량 저감을 하여 실제 선박설계에 적용시키고자 한다.

초고층건축물이 증가함에 따라 고강도콘크리트의 사용량이 증가하는 추세이다. 고강도콘크리트는 내구성 및 사용성이 우수한 장점을 가지고 있는 반면 화재시 심각한 폭렬현상을 발생시켜 콘크리트 내역 감소 및 철근의 노출로 인해 건물이 붕괴까지 이르게 되는 원인이 된다. 따라서 고강도콘크리트의 내화특성을 고려한 해석(열응력, 질량 이동, 폭렬) 과정을 거쳐 폭렬 저감방안을 모색하여야 한다. 이러한 폭렬 저감방안을 표층부의 온도상승 온도구배 저감 방안, 수중기압 저감/수분 이동을 용이하게 하는 방안, 폭렬억제형 피복콘크리트 이용방안, 폭렬에 의한 콘크리트의 비산을 방지하는 방안 등이 있으며 각 방안들은 장단점을 내포하고 있어 상황에 따라 탄력적으로 적용하여야 하며, 향후 고강도 콘크리트의 역학적 성상을 고려하여 단점을 보완하고 추가적인 대책용 수립할 수 있도록 많은 연구가 필요 할 것으로 판단된다.

This study investigates the engineering properties of the high strength concrete depending on dosages and types of shrinkage reduction agent. Test results showed that for the properties of fresh concrete, the addition of the conventional shrinkage reduction agent (SR) of 0.25% decreased slump flow up to 40% as compared with control concrete, whereas the addition of the emulsified waste cooking oil (EWCO) decreased slump flow of only 5% to 10%. Other properties of fresh concrete with the agents, namely air content, unit weight and setting time, were similar to the results of the control concrete. For the properties of hardened concrete, the compressive strength of the concrete with SR decreased at both early and later stage. However, the compressive strength of the concrete with EWCO was similar to the control concrete at early age, but decreased at later stage (up to 10% reduction at 28 days). For the effect of the agents on autogenous shrinkage of the concretes, the addition of EWCO decreased up to 33%, whereas that of SR decreased up to 29%. Hence, it can be said that the addition of EWCO in high strength concrete has an effect on reducing the autogenous shrinkage as compared with a conventional agent and only slight influence on the slump flow and air content of concrete. By taking all aspects of using EWCO, it is concluded that the optimum content of EWCO will be in the range of between 0.5% and 0.75%.
