In this study, it was founded to make the optimal mixture for producing concrete which is self-compacting, yet, and generates low heat of hydration by using flyash, blast furnace slags and limestone powders as binders in addition to cement while using super-plasticizers and viscosity agents as admixture agents. The structural behaviors of the concrete produced with the selected mixture were compared with those of the concrete currently using for construction of nuclear power plants. The study shows that the blended high fluidity concrete including limestone is better in workability and durability than the concrete currently in use for nuclear power plants.

Concrete structure is recognized as the universal structuring material for its outstanding formability, economic efficiency, and strength development. However, as the ageing of field workers and the deficiency of skilled workers due to evasions from 3D business have recently become the major issues of the industry in Korea and as the materials are becoming more diversified and complicated for today's concrete structures are becoming higher, larger, and specialized, the need for practicality of construction work based on new technology and new method has greatly increased. Therefore, the overall condition of today's construction business requires researches and developments on the high fluidity concrete for higher construction efficiency and quality improvements. With this reason, this study investigated study development tendency and development situation of the high fluidity concrete, arranged experiment performance, and domestic or international specification used in performance valuation of the high fluidity concrete.

Recently, there are a lot of researches related to the high-fluidity concrete (HFC) with field applications. However, most applications and studies are with concretes with high strength level so there are little studies about durability evaluations such as chloride ion penetration properties with normal strength concrete. Therefore, to evaluate the durability of HFC with normal strength level, this study performed the chloride ion penetration test and observed the micro pore distribution with normal strength HFC which contains limestone powder. Experimental results showed that most micro-pores have diameters between 0.005 to 0.05 ${\mu}m$ with HFCs using limestone powder and the average diameter becomes larger with the increase of limestone powder content. Also, it was shown that, with the increase of the limestone powder content, penetration depth and diffusion coefficient of chloride ion increased and diffusion coefficient had good relationships with compressive strength and average pore diameter with the coefficient of determination over 0.90.

High fluidity concrete needs high dosage of superplasticizer to acquire sufficient fluidity and high contents of fine powder and viscosity agents to prevent segregation. But it requires high manufacturing cost and has difficult in quality control. Therefore, in this paper, determination of optimal mixture proportion of segregation type superplasticizer for high fluidity concrete and manufacturing high fluidity concrete by applying developed segregation reducing type superplasticizer are discussed using flowing concrete method. According to test results, as dosage of superplasticizer increases, it shows that fluidity and bleeding increase, while air contents and ratio of segregation resistance decrease. It also shows that adding viscosity agent into it reduce bleeding and improve segregation resistance. Dosage of AE agent into it containing viscosity agent recovers loss of air contents during flowing procedure. Combination of proper contents of superplasticizer, viscosity agent and AE agent make possible to develope segregation reducing type superplasticizer Compressive strength of high fluidity concrete applying flowing method with it is higher than that of base concrete. No differences of compressive strength between compacting methods are found.

High-flow steel-fiber reinforced mortar may induce a certain fiber orientation distribution in the process of placing and thus have an influence on the tensile properties. In this paper, the variation of the fiber orientation distribution according to the flow of high-flow steel-fiber reinforced mortar was estimated in numerical simulation. The analytical results present that the major variation of fiber orientation distribution is made within 150mm of flow distance, thereafter the tendency of the fiber orientation distribution is not noticeable even though the peak of distribution density in the orientation parallel to the flow direction get bigger along the distance. Considering the close relation between the fiber orientation and the tensile behavior of composite, prediction of fiber orientation distribution make it possible to predict the variation in the tensile behavior of high-flow steel-fiber reinforced mortar according to the flow.

The research analyzes and investigates conventional concrete, hydration heat, set, and mechanical properties by making high flowing self-compacting concretes of binary blend and ternary blend as one of evaluations about the properties of the hydration heat of high flowing self-compacting concrete with a strength of 30, 50, and 70 MPa. In addition, it estimates concrete adiabatic temperatures by calculating a thermal property value of powder obtained by measuring a heat evolution amount for powder used in concrete, a thermal property value of concrete obtained by conducting a simple adiabatic temperature test, and a normal thermal property value of material used in concrete, using a simple equation. Moreover, it analyzes and investigates the hydration heat property of high flowing self-compacting concrete and the thermal stress caused by hydration heat by conducting a 3D temperature stress analysis for the hydration heat and the adiabatic temperature obtained by temperature analysis, using MIDAS CIVIL 06 program.

Testing standards both nationally and abroad for high flowing concrete are presented about slump flow and the time to reach 500 mm. However, the slump flow testing method to measure flow properties of high flowing concrete results in measurement error due to the differences in each person's perception of the test. This study introduced laser diode to reduce such testing errors from personal differences in experimental procedure.

고유동 콘크리트는 높은 변형성과 분리 저항성에 의해 자기충전성을 갖는 콘크리트로서 외부에서 힘을 전혀 가하지 않거나 또는 아주 작은 힘만으로 재료분리 없이 거푸집 구석구석까지 충전되는 특징을 가진다. 이러한 고유동 콘크리트는 일본 동경대학의 강촌 보 교수에 의해 제창되었는데 콘크리트의 다짐을 하지 않아도 된다면 시공방법의 영향을 받지 않고 신뢰성이 높은 구조물을 만들 수 있을 뿐 아니라 1회치기 높이의 제한, 다짐작업을 위한 발판, 박스단면에서 밑면과 벽체 부분의 분할치기 등의 제약을 받지 않게 되고, 강 콘크리트 샌드위치 합성구조 등의 새로운 구조형식도 용이하게 시공할 수 있어 많은 이점을 가질 수 있다.(중략)
