This paper presents some research results on the shrinkage characteristics and frost resistance before and after cracking of FR-ECC(Fire Resistance-Engineered Cementitious Composite). Also, a waterstop performance and exfoliating resistance of multi-layer lining specimens using FR-ECC and flexural performance of beam member by repaired FR-ECC are estimated in this paper. Experimental results indicate that the plastic shrinkage crack and length change ratio of FR-ECC have been reduced as compared with that of the existing repair mortar, and that its crack resistance on the dry shrinkage is improved under the confining stress. As well as FR-ECC has been great in the frost resistance and its tensile properties under the cracked state have been not reduced by freezing and thawing reaction. In addition, beam member by repaired FR-ECC have been increased in the flexural properties such as initial crack moment, yeild moment, and its crack width has been controled in a stable by the frexural failure.

In this study, the characteristics of single-component and other sealant were analyzed to provide repair methods and effective utilization of sealant due to crack generation. Humidity studies have shown that acrylic silicone is effective in many areas of fluidity and temperature change, and that polysulfide-silicon is most effective in resistance to linear expansion coefficient and external pressure. Therefore, the difference between drying shrinkage and thermal expansion coefficient between various building materials and sealant, as well as the use of sealant, is analyzed, and construction methods derived accordingly, and prevention of defects are considered to be part of the construction project.

A dilatometer was used to investigate the effect of cure conditions, mold types and the presence of filler in an epoxy system. These studies showed shrinkage in the cured epoxy when heating it through the glass transition temperature region. The magnitude of the shrinkage, related to stress build up in the epoxy during curing, was influenced by the processing conditions, filler presence and the nature of the mold used to contain the resin. Cure and cyclic cure at a lower temperature, prior to a post cure, decreased the magnitude of observed shrinkage. Cure shrinkage decreased with the number of cyclic cures. Post cured samples outside the mold led to less shrinkage compared with samples in the mold. Sample cured in a silicon mold represented less shrinkage than sample cured in an aluminum mold. Sample containing kaolin filler showed less shrinkage than unfilled sample.

매스콘크리트 구조물에서는 이미 경화된 콘크리트가 새로이 타설된 콘크리트의 변형을 제한하여 시공직후에 부재의 길이방향에 수직한 균열이 발생하는 경우가 자주 보고 되고 있다. 이 균열은 먼저 타설된 바닥에 대하여 벽체의 변위가 제한될 때 구속인장응력에 의해 발생된다. 이러한 균열의 발생원인은 몇 가지로 살펴볼 수 있는데, 그 하나는 먼저 타설한 바닥 콘크리트와 새로 타설한 벽체 콘크리트와의 수화열 발생의 차이에 의한 것이며, 두번째 이유로 바닥과 벽체사이의 건조수축의 차이를 들 수 있다. (중략)

Many papers have been published on drying shrinkage of hardened cement paste and cement mortar. The causes of drying shrinkage in cement mortar may be attributed to its mechanical properties, temperature, curing time and the evaporation of water from cement mortar. This paper deals only with drying shrinkage in cement mortar. In particular, the relationships between water evaporation and drying shrinkage are discussed.

The effects of binder content and recycling mixed waste plastics(PA) content on the workability, work life and hardening shrinkage of fresh polymer concrete using mixed waste plastics are examined. As a result, the workability of the polymer concretes using mixed waste plastics tend to improve with increasing binder content, PA content and filler content. The work life of the polymer concretes using mixed waste plastics is shortened with an increase in the initiator content and curing temperature. The length change of the polymer concretes using mixed waste plastics tend to increased with Increasing binder content and PA content. The result of the present research is expected to make a contribution to the recycling of final mixed waste plastics and the continuing efforts for the development of use of the recycled products are thought to expand the horizon for the recycling of the final mixed waste plastics.

This study deals with the setting behavior of polystyrene mortars using waste expanded polystyrene(EPS) solution-based binders. The binders for polystyrene mortars are made by mixing crosslinking agent with EPS solutions prepared by dissolving EPS in styrene. Polystyrene mortars are prepared with various EPS concentrations of EPS solutions and crosslinking agent contents, subjected to a dry curing, and tested for working life, peak exotherm temperature and 10h-length change. From the test results, He working lives of polystyrene mortars are shortened with raising EPS concentration of EPS solution and crosslinking agent content. Low-shrinkage or non-shrinkage polystyrene mortars could be obtained by adjusting EPS concentration of EPS solution and crosslinking agent content.

Expansion agent is a very effective admixture for prevention of cracking due to autogenous/drying shrinkage and this can induce internal chemical prestress to embedded reinforcement. In this paper, tension-softening and hardening in cement mortar with steel and CSA expansion agent are experimentally evaluated. Cement mortar with steel reinforcement is prepared and tensile strength test is performed for evaluation of cracking and tensile behavior. In spite of slightly reduced strength and elasticity in CSA mortar, significantly increased tension-hardening behavior is evaluated in CSA mortar with induced chemical prestress. Furthermore previous tension softening models are compared with the test results and improvement are proposed.

The purpose of this paper is to recycle the fly ash to the valuable resources and settle environment problems which was caused by the fly ash produced from the thermal power plant. Making the fly ash-cement matrix reused fly ash in large quantities, we looked into minutely the physical properties - the elastic modulus, the compressive strength - to increase the usefulness as the building materials for the structure widely. In this paper, the variables are the water-binder(39, 42, 45%), the fine aggregate ratio(37, 41, 45%). Because the fracture energy is influenced by the strength, it is showed to decrease with the increase of W/B and S/a. Besides, we will be able to know that basic properties of the fly ash-cement matrix are similar to that of concrete. But, it is needed to carry out durability experiment on the drying shrinkage, creep, freezing and thawing test to use structural materials.
