The current enforce decree of "The Act on the Promotion of Construction Waste Recycling" divides seventeen kinds of construction wastes by property and configuration. Mixed construction waste, one of them classified by the enforce decree, is composed two more than justified construction wastes except refuse soil and rock. In construction wastes justified by enforce decree of this law, most refuse concrete and asphalt concrete of construction wastes are recycled. As well as refuse metal is separated, sorted from bulk them, and merchandised for value. Finally this is used the secondary manufactured products. Even though combustible construction wastes like refuse wood, plastics, fiber can be recycled RDF(Refuse derived fuel) or RPF(Refuse plastic fuel) because of high caloric value and low heavy metal but most of them are discharged as mixed construction waste and then treated by treated by incineration and landfill. Therefore, to control construction waste flow efficiently, construction wastes are classifies first combustible, incombustible, mixed combustible, incombustible and etc. in this study. The combustible waste is consisted refuse wood, plastics, fiber and etc. and incombustible waste contains refuse concrete, asphalt, and etc. Mixed construction is construction waste that can not separate from mixed waste bulk with different kinds.

There are many kinds of polycarboxylate superplasticizer as a functional classification which are introduced to domestic; Water Reducer, Retention, Ultra High Strength Superplasicizer. These are showed different physical behaviors because of the difference in the chemical system and the manners after cement mixing. In the case of water reducer, when $1.2\% of cement weight used, water reducing which is over $30\% is observed, but it take with segregation and the reduction of slump flow shows over 30 cm after 45 min of concrete produce. In the case of retention, when the same quantity used, water reducing which is about $25\% is observed and slump flow which is up to 45 min shows under 15 cm. And in the case of ultra high strength, when $1.2\% of cement weight used, water reducing which is over $30\% is observed, and slump flow which is up to 45 min recorded fewer than 15 cm. Compressive strength of ultra high strength superplasticizer has take effect of early age strength, and in the condition of specific mixing, 18 h-compressive strength is insured for more than $60\;Kgf/cm^2$ and 24 h-compressive strength is insured for more than $80\;Kgf/cm^2$.

In order to use the spherical atomizing reduction steel slag (ladle furnace slag, LFS) instead of the fine aggregate of polymer concrete composites, various specimens were prepared with various replacement ratios of atomizing reduction steel slag and the addition ratios of polymer binder. Physical properties of these specimens were investigated through the absorption test, the compressive strength test, the flexural strength test, the hot water resistance test, the pore analysis and the micro-structure using scanning electron microscope. Results showed that the compressive strength and flexural strength of specimens with 7.5% of polymer binders increased with the increase of replacement ratios of atomizing reduction steel slag, but those of the specimens with 8.0% or more of polymer binders showed a maximum strength at a certain replacement ratio due to the material segregation causing the increase of fluidity. By hot water resistance tests, the compressive strength, flexural strength, average pore diameter, and bulk density decreased but the total pore volume and pore diameter increased. It was concluded that the amount of polymer binders could be reduced by maximum 23.8%, because the workability of the polymer concrete was remarkably improved by using the atomizing reduction steel slag instead of fine aggregate. However, since the use of atomizing reduction steel slag decreased the resistance of the polymer concrete to hot water, further studies are required.

Recombinant human $interleukin-1{\beta}$ $(rhIL-1{\beta})$ regulates several activities of the osteoblast cells derived from mouse calvarial bone explants in vitro. $rhIL-1{\beta}$ stimulated cellular proliferation and the synthesis of prostaglandin $E_2(PGE_2)$ and plasminogen activator activity in the cultured cells in a dose-dependent manner. However, the induction of osteocalcin synthesis and alkaine phosphatase activity in response to vitamine D, two characteristics of the osteoblast phenotype, were antagonized by $rhIL-1{\beta}$ over a similar dose range. This study supports the role of $IL-1{\beta}$ in the pathological modulation of bone cell metabolism, with regard to implication in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis by $IL-1{\beta}$. When the mouse calvarial bone cells were used, the bone resorption induced by $IL-1{\beta}$ was strongly inhibited by calcitonin treatment, indicating osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. On the other hand, the medicinal extracts of Taeyoungjon-Jahage (T.Y.J-J.H.G extracts) was tested for whether they could inhibit $IL-1{\beta}-induced$ $PGE_2$ production. Cell viability was not significantly affected by treatment with the indicated concentration of the extracts. The T.Y.J.-J.H.G. extracts were shown to have the inhibitory effects against the synthesis of $PGE_2$. We also examined the effect of the pretreatment with a various concentrations of the T.Y.J.-J.H.G. extracts then treated the $PGE_2-induction$ agents. Pretreatment of the T.Y.J.-J.H.G. extracts for 1 h, which by itself had little effect on cell survival, did not enhance the synthesis of $PGE_2$. Furthermore, the T.Y.J-J.H.G. extracts were shown to have the protective effects against plasminogen dependent fibrinolysis induced by the bone resorption agents of $IL-1{\beta}$. Pretreatment of the T.Y.J.-J.H.G. extracts for 1 h did not enhance the plasminogen dependent fibrinolysis. Finally, calcitonin showed the inhibitory activity the $IL-1{\beta}-stimulated$ bone resorption in the mouse calvarial bone cells having both of the osteoblast and osteoclast cells. Seemingly, pretreatment of the T.Y.J.-J.H.G. extracts for 1 h reduced the bone resorption. These results clearly indicated that calcitonin and T.Y.J.-J.H.G. extracts play key roles in inhibition of the osteoclast-mediated bone resorption.

This research aims to find an effective mixing method for controlled low strength material (CLSM) using diverse recycled industrial byproducts. This study is a fundamental research to develop and commercialize a resource-recycling CLMS that can greatly contribute to cost reduction and environmental stress relief. In the past, few studies have been performed on CLSM in Korea. This research is expected to provide fundamental data not only for development and commercialization of the resource-recycling CLSM satisfying required material performances but also serve as a ground breaking study on utilization of recycled material in construction industry and ultimately leading to advanced resource-recycling practices at national level. From the comprehensive analysis of minimum unit quantity for maximum strength and material segregation prevention, it was found that the optimal mixing condition for mixing FSD, RSID and SD material to filler-aggregate ratio (f/a) was approximately 50.

The Jeonju-Il mine tailings contain large quantities of $SiO_2\;and\;Al_2O_3$ and lesser quantities of metallic components. In this study, we studied about the possibility of using mine tailings as a raw material in various industries. it was found that the sintered mine tailings had a good quality in every respect such as chromaticity, firing shrinkage and water absorption etc. Therefore if can substitute clay mineral in the ceramic industry. Also it can substitute about 2.94% of the raw materials of ordinary portland cement. We can use the coarse tailing as the fine aggregate for the ready-mixed mortar; and the fine tailing, as the filler for the bituminous paving mixture; because both products were not only suitable for Korea industrial standard in quality, but also environmentally harmless.

The aim of the research is, for normal strength range concrete mixture, to evaluate the fluidity development and robustness of the mixture depending on various water reducers. Although a usage of water reducer has been essential to make a concrete under the current conditions of worsen aggregate quality, selection of appropriate performance of water reducer is significant. Hence, in this research, regarding the normal strength range mortar, three different performance of water reducers were evaluated in aspects of securing fluidity, and robustness, rheological behaviors. Additionally, for the concrete mixture, the fluidity change was evaluated depending on unit water content for each different water reducer, and the water reducing performance with manufacturing cost was compared and analyzed. By the result of this research, it is expected to provide a case of determining appropriate kind of water reducer and to contribute on conditions of securing sufficient fluidity with stable quality and economical advantage.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the compressive strength development and ecological characteristics of mortars using expanded vermiculite absorbing bacteria as a fundamental investigation to develop precast eco-concrete products. For bacterial growth under the high-alkalinity and high-dried environments within hardened mortars and for creating plant growth function to mortars, Bacillus alcalophilus and Rhodoblastus acidophilus were separated and cultured. The cultured bacteria were absorbed into expanded vermiculite selected for bacteria shelter. The expanded vermiculite absorbing bacteria was then added into mortar mixture as a volumetric replacement of fine aggregate. Test results showed that the developed technology is very effective in enhancing the plant growth onto the hardened mortars and reducing the COD and T-N concentration in raw water. The optimum replacement level of expanded vermiculite absorbing bacteria can be recommended to be less than 10% considering the compressive strength development and cost of mortars along with the ecological effectiveness.

Recycling of aluminum dross is an important issue in the secondary aluminum industries. In this study, aluminum dross generated in the domestic secondary aluminum industry was processed to use it as raw material for producing alumina refractories. Sample dross was classified according to its size. The dross smaller than 1 mm was leached with sodium hydroxide solution to extract the remained aluminum from the dross into the solution. and then aluminum hydroxide precipitate was recovered from the leach liquor. The waste residue in the leaching was washed, dried and roasted. Most remained metallic components in the residue was changed into oxide through the processes. The roasted dross was made into alumina castable refractories by mixing with aggregates and a binder. Bending strength of the tested castable specimen was over $25\;kg/\textrm{m}^2$ and compressive strength over $80\;kg/\textrm{cm}^2$, which satisfied the Korean Standard value respectively. From the results, it was suggested that this process could be applicable to recycling of aluminum dross.

이론적으로 하천의 흐름은 시간과 위치에 따라 수위와 유량의 관계가 일대일로 대응한다는 가정을 두지만, 실제 하천은 여러 가지 통제요인에 의해 다양하게 변화한다. 특히 하천 상 하류 일부구간에서 인공적인 골재채취나 준설작업과 같은 하도공사가 이루어진다면 하천의 흐름은 일시적인 수위변화가 아닌 단면의 변화 나아가 수위에 따른 유량의 증가 및 감소를 일으키게 된다. 또한 모래하상이나 식생의 영향을 받는 하천의 경우에도 빈번한 단면 및 유속의 변화를 볼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 2007년부터 2011년까지 유량조사사업단에서 측정이 이루어진 4개 수계 577개 지점을 대상지점으로 선정하고, 이들 중 2개년 이상 측정이 이루어져 단면변화 및 지점의 수리특성 여부를 비교할 수 있는 한강 55개, 낙동강 49개, 금강 43개, 영산강 55개 지점의 수위-유량관계 변화여부를 검토하였다. 본 연구는 경년변화 없이 일정한 수위-유량관계를 보이거나 보와 같은 단면 통제에 의해 단순한 기간분리가 발생되는 지점, 4대강 공사가 진행 중인 지점, 미미한 단면변화에 의해 저수위의 수위-유량관계가 변화된 지점들은 분석 대상에서 제외하고, 중수위 이상에서 수위와 유량의 관계가 변화하는 지점들을 찾아 그 원인을 파악하고 사례를 분석하는데 중점을 두었다. 검토 결과 중수위 이상에서 수위-유량관계가 변화되는 요인으로 크게 상류와 하류에서 하천준설을 실시하여 수위에 따른 에너지선의 증가 및 감소를 일으킨 경우와, 제방공사에 의해 고수위가 변화가 발생되었거나 그 해에 배수영향을 받았는지 여부 또는 하도에 자생하는 식생의 영향 그리고 모래 및 자갈하천에서 발생되는 큰 단면변화 등으로 나타났다.
