In Powder System, SCC demands high dosage of superplasticizer and a lage amout of powder for suitable fluidity and viscosity. Okamura's method of most representative mixing design method in SCC of Powder-System is unfavorable economically because of using a large amount of powder. In addition, many ready-mixed concrete plants do not use his mix design method and procedure due to complexity for practical application. Therefore, Nan Su proposed more simple mix design method than Okamura's. It had an advantage in simplicity in practical application and required a smaller amount of powders compared with Okamura's method. This paper proposed an optimal mixture proportion of SCC with consideration of Nan Su's method. The new and modified mix design method required a smaller amount of powder than that of Nan Su's. To check the properties of SCC, considered with the requirements specified by the Japanese Society of Civil Engineering.(JSCE)

Limestone mine waste was used as a aggregate far permeable concrete. Void ratio, continuous void ratio, coefficient of permeability, compressive strength and flexural strength of concrete were measured and then the relationship between porosity and strength properties was investigated. Void ratio, continuous void ratio and strength properties of permeable concrete were greatly influenced by the grain size of aggregate and void filling ratio in comparison with the containing ratio of limestone mine waste. Furthermore, void ratio showed a good relation with continuous void ratio, and porosity of permeable concrete indicated a good relation with strength properties also. The coefficient of permeability of permeable concrete using limestone waste was over 0.2 cm/sec and was excellent result in comparison with normal concrete. Therefore, it could be expected that the limestone mine waste would be utilized as aggregate for pavement concrete, green concrete and water resource specie concrete in the results of this study.

The objective of this study is to modify the mixture proportions of concrete that were developed for section enlargement strengthening elements using a specially designed binder composed of 5% ultra-rapid hardening cement, 10% polymer, and 85% ordinary portland cement in order to assign the self-compaction property to such concrete. The self-compaction abilities of concrete were estimated by the performance criteria specified in JSCE and EFNARC provions. Test results showed that the increase in the unit binder content at the consistent water-to-bider ratio led to increase in viscosity of fresh concrete but did not exhibit the decrease in the fluidity due to a greater viscosity. The mixture proportioning of self-compaction section enlargement concrete could be considered at the following conditions: unit binder contents of $430kg/m^3{\sim}470kg/m^3$ and fine aggregate-to-total aggregate ratios of 40%~46% at the water-to-binder ratio of 38%.

The results of an experimental study on the manufacture and the mechanical properties of steel fiber reinforced polyester resin composites utilizing industrial waste products(fly ash) are presented in this paper. The composites using steel fiber, fly ash, unsaturated polyester resin, styrene monomer, catalyst (cobalt octate) and accelerator(methyl ethyl ketone peroxide), fine and coarse aggreates were prepared using various mixing conditions. As the test results show. the mechanical and physical properties, such as the compressive, tensile and flexural strengths, and the setting shrinkage of fly ash$\cdot$polyester resin composites were improved considerably by increasing the fly ash-binder ratio. And the workability of steel fiber reinforced fly ash$\cdot$polyester resin composites was reduced with increasing the fly ash-binder ratio and steel fiber content. Also, the compressive, flexural strength and toughness of the composites were remarkably increased by increasing steel fiber content.

In order to develop the ultra high strength concrete over 400Mpa at 28 day, Low-heat portland cement, ferro-silicon, silica-fume and steel fiber were mixed and tested under the special autoclave curing conditions. Considering the influence of Ultra high strength concrete. normal concrete is used as a comparison with low water-cement ratio possible Low-heat portland cement. Additionally, as a substitution of aggregates, we analyzed the compressive strength of Ferro Silicon by making the states of mixed and curing conditions differently. In addition, SEM films testified the development of C-S-H hydrates of Type III & Type IV, and tobermolite, zonolite due to the high temperature, high pressure of autoclave curing. Fineness of aggregate, filler and reactive materials in concrete caused 420Mpa compressive strength at 28day successfully.

The objective of this paper is to investigate experimentally the effect of replacement of recycled coarse aggregates with 5~13mm in size on a field applicability of concretes through Mock-up test. Seven different mock-up specimens were prepared with the size of $1200{\times}800{\times}800mm$ simulating column and wall. For the concrete mixtures, 24MPa, 27MPa and 40MPa of nominal strength were adopted with 30% and 70%(only for 24MPa) of 5~13mm recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) replacement and without 5~13mm RCA(Plain). For test items, slump, slump flow, compressive strength with different curing conditions, core drilling, rebound numbers and drying shrinkage were measured. Test results indicated that 30% of 5~13 mm RCA replacement resulted in increase in slump, slump flow and resistance against segregation, while air contents decreased compared to those of plain mixture. Compressive strength of concrete with 30% of 5~13mm RCA was shown to be higher than that of plain mixture due to optimum packing effect associated with presence of well graded aggregates. Rebound number of the mock-up specimen with 30% of 5~13mm RCA had lower fluctuation according to hitting location than that of plain mock-up specimen. It is believed from the results of the study that replacement of 30% of 5~13mm RCA brings desirable improvement in various aspect of concrete performance due to associated dense packing effect.

This study was performed to determine the effects of filling materials on the physical properties of permeable polymer concrete. The filling materials were ground calcium carbonate, ground granulated blast furnace slag and fly ash. In this experiment, permeable polymer concrete mixtures with unsaturated polyester resin contents from 5 to 7 weight %, filler/resin ratio of 0~2.0 and crushed coarse aggregate passing 15 mm sieve were prepared and coefficient of permeability, void ratio, compressive strength and flexural strength were tested. As the test results, increase in the strength and decrease in the coefficient of permeability of the permeable polymer concrete were generally observed with increasing the resin contents and filler/resin ratio. The compressive and flexural strength of the permeable polymer concrete were in the range of 8.0 to 35.0 MPa and 2.0 to 9.0 MPa respectively and the highest strength was shown at the mixtures with 7 weight % unsaturated polyester resin contents, 2.0 ratio of filler/resin and filler of ground calcium carbonate. On the other hand, in the level of 20 MPa compressive strength, the mixtures with filler of fly ash was shown as the most economic permeable polymer concrete.

A series of experiments were performed to investigate the design and application of a rubble-ground modification method with grout injection. A small-sized injection machine was designed, and the grouts with various mix proportions were injected into 25 mm aggregate using the designed small-sized injection machine. With the compressive strength of the grout ranging from 20 to 80 MPa, the uniaxial compressive strength of the grout-filling bodies with clean gravels was higher than 1/6th of the strength of grouts themselves. However, this fraction may reduce depending on the interface conditions. The erosion resistance of the hardened grout was evaluated, and it was determined that the grout with a strength greater than 15 MPa did not require erosion consideration. Moreover, a full-scale injection test was performed for 25 cm-sized rubbles in cages with a diameter greater than 1 m and a height of 1.2 m to evaluate the filling characteristics of the grout. Results from this test indicated that the grout flowability sensitively influenced the filling characteristics.
