In this study, the time-dependent chloride ingress behavior in GGBFS concrete was evaluated considering marine exposure conditions and the properties of concrete mixtures. The concrete mixture for this study had 3 levels of water to binder ratio and the substitution rate of GGBFS, and outdoor exposure tests were performed considering submerged area, tidal area, and splash area. According to the evaluation results of diffusion coefficient considering properties of concrete mixtures, as the substitution rate of GGBFS increased, the decreasing rate of the diffusion coefficient decreased based on exposure periods of 730 days(2 years). As the evaluation result of the diffusion behavior according to the marine exposure conditions, the diffusion coefficient was evaluated in the order of submerged area, tidal area, and splash area. In tidal area, a relatively high diffusion coefficient was evaluated due to the repetition of wet and dry seawater. In this study, the effects of GGBFS substitution rate on the decreasing behavior of apparent chloride diffusion coefficient was analyzed in consideration of exposure conditions and periods. Linear regression analysis was performed with apparent chloride diffusion coefficient as output value and GGBFS substitution rate as input value. After 730 days of exposure, the effect of GGBFS on diffusion coefficient was significantly reduced. Even for OPC concrete, after 730 days, the diffusion coefficient was as low as that of GGBFS concrete, so the gradient of the regression equation decreased significantly. It is thought that improved durability performance for chloride ingress can be secured before 730 days through the use of GGBFS.

This study aims to analyze whether the performance of the fire extinguisher meets the criteria for the apparent specific gravity property test by calculating the change in internal pressure and the use period of the fire extinguisher as a new one with 5 years, recycled one with 5 years, a new one with 10 years, and a new one with 13 years, respectively. As a result of the experiment, when the internal pressure of the fire extinguisher was 0%, the first, second, and third arithmetic mean analysis of the dry chemical extinguisher according to the use period was found to be condemned. When the internal pressure of the fire extinguisher was 50%, it was measured as 130 ml in sample 12-08-new and analyzed as unsuitable. Also, sample 09-09-new of a new dry chemical extinguisher with 13 elapsed years measured 145ml, which was found inappropriate. All other dry chemical extinguishers were analyzed to be suitable. All were noted suitable when having normal internal pressure of the fire extinguisher, except for sample 09-06 of a new dry chemical extinguisher with 13 elapsed years, which was determined to be unsuitable caused by measuring as 131 ml for experimental value. As a result of experiments, some of the apparent specific gravity tests of dry chemical extinguishers from 10 years to 13 years have found that they are unsuitable for the performance of the fire extinguishers due to the massive phenomenon. Accordingly, it is necessary to reduce the endurance period of dry chemical extinguishers from 10 years to 7 years.

An apparent earth pressure envelope for anchored walls proposed by FHWA was compared with Terzaghi & Peck's earth pressure envelope. The anchor design load, the maximum bending moment and the penetration depth were calculated by a simple beam analogy method for each type of envelope.

Fly ashes mixed with clay as 70:30 weight percent were sintered by microwave energy and a 2.45 Ghz kitchen model microwave oven was used. Samples were sintered at $1,150^{\circ}C$ and kept at that temperature up to 50 minutes by 10 minutes intervals. Microstructures were taken by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Energy Dispersive Spectrometry (EDS) analysis of a raw fly ash was taken. X-ray diffraction analysis was done, and compressive strengths and apparent densities were measured. Pore sizes of the samples became smaller as time passed by, but compressive strengths and apparent densities did not change much. Numerical analysis on the microwave heated system was carried out in order to figure out heat transfer phenomena in the cavity.

Using wood pellets, which are used as fuel for thermal power generation plants, as test specimens, the minimum spontaneous ignition temperatures according to the size of the container for the test specimens were measured, and by applying the Frank-Kamenetskii theories on thermal energy to these temperatures, the danger factor of the materials were calculated by deriving the apparent activation energies. The results confirmed that the ignition threshold temperature decreased as the size of the container increased and that the spontaneous ignition energy was 37.83 kcal/mol. The results also confirmed that the larger the container for the test specimens was the time to arrive at the spontaneous ignition time and maximum temperature also increased.

Target detection by the infrared imager depends on the apparent temperature difference between the target and the background, so it is essential to predict apparent temperature variations for this purpose. In this study, thermal analysis program Including conduction, convection and radiation is developed and applied to a representative geometry adequate for examining the apparent temperature characteristics. The results show that the longwave emissivity in association with the background temperature affects the apparent temperature strongly but does not affect the physical temperature. It is revealed that the background temperature plays a role of tuning the apparent temperature. As the longwave emissivity decreases, the apparent temperature decreases when the target is hotter than the background, whereas it increases in the reversed situation. These findings imply that an effective surface treatment, such as painting of a less emissive material, may provide a less detection probability and contribute to preventing the target from being detected at night.

The nonuniform thermal conductive reaction blocks were manufactured by impregnation of metal salts on the expanded graphite to improve the heat and mass transfer ability of reaction block for the chemical heat pump using the reaction of ammonia and metal salts(halide). The nonuniform blocks were designated to increase apparent density, like 165, 222, 279, 337, $394kg/m^3$ radially The experimental results showed that the heat transfer characteristics of nonuniform blocks were better than uniform blocks. As the reaction of ammonia repeated, the volumetric expansion in the reaction block makes the mass transfer improve, and the reproducibility better.

To evaluate reinforced region of dike by cement grouting, we investigated both the electrical resistivity and the strength of cement grout having various water-cement ratio with curing time. These investigation results showed that the electric conductivity of grout is much higher than that of water and that the apparent resistivity of grouted region is much lower than that of unoccupied region by grout. It was founded that electrical resistivity survey might be quite effective to detect grout region in dike. As the results of electrical resistivity sounding at three dikes, apparent resistivities after grouting showed several tens to several hundreds of ohm-m which were lower than those of pre-grouting and showed stabilizing trend with curing time. From these results, we could estimate that this behavior of apparent resistivity is due to increasing strength with curing time.
