To make recycling aggregate, quantity of fine particles increase due to multi-crushing. Though this particles were mixed with recycling aggregate, those have to be disparted from aggregate in the high quality recycling aggregate, because of the cause of low quality. Considering reactivity, fine particles is better than coarse one. Therefore, it needs to develop suitable usage. We try to make cement extruding material by using the fine particles from concrete recycling, as a silicious replacement. Test results are as follows ; 1) Waste concrete powder has major ingredients such as $SiO_2$ and CaO, its density is $2.45g/cm^3$ being similar to silica powder, its diameter is range 13 to $141{\mu}m$. 2) Considering to strength properties according to particle size, specimen was made using small particles is higher strength than large one. 3) Despite of exception in the autoclaved curing, when the replacement of waste fine particle increase, strength of extruding panel shows almost same level.

Fifteen lightweight concrete mixes were tested to evaluate the effect of maximum size of coarse aggregate and the replacement level of natural sand on the various properties of fresh lightweight concrete. The different properties, such as water absorption against the elapsed time, pore size distribution and micro-structure of lightweight aggregates used, influencing on the workability of fresh concrete were also measured. Test results showed that the initial slump of lightweight concrete decreased with the increase of the replacement level of natural sand. The slump of all-lightweight concrete sharply decreased by around 80% of the initial slump after 30~60 minutes. The air content and bleeding rate of lightweight concrete were significantly affected by the replacement level of natural sand as well as the maximum size of coarse aggregates. Empirical equations recommended in ACI 211 and Korea concrete standard specifications underestimated the air content of the lightweight concrete, indicating that the underestimation increases with the decrease of the replacement level of natural sand. In addition, equations to predict the air content and bleeding rate of lightweight concrete were proposed based on the test results.

본 硏究는 現在 일상적 있는 재생조골재를 죠오크러져(modified-jaw crusher)를 이 용하여 다시 1-3 파쇄를 행함으로써 재생골재의 품질이 어느정도 개량될 수 있는가를 실험 적으로 구명하여 재생골재의 실용화를 위한 하나의 방법을 제한하고자 하는 것이다. 실험결 과,재화파생 처리를 행하지 않은 경우의 재생근 골재의 흡수율은 5-7%정도이나 재파쇄를 함에 따라 흡수율은 현저하게 낮아져, 3차례의 재파쇄를 행한 경우 흡수율이 2% 이래로 나 타나 재생근골재의 품질을 학보하기 위하여는 재파쇄가 매우 유용한 방법임을 알 수 있었 다. 또한 흡수율의 본포도 처음에는 2개의 범주를 가지고 넓게 산포하게 되나 재파쇄가 진 행될수록 재생근골재중에 부착되어 있던 모르터분이 점차 떨어져 나감에 따라 품질의 산포 가 상당히 낮아지는 결과를 얻었다. 그러나 이와같은 재파쇄에는 많은 실용적 부담이 발생 하게 되므로 골재의 품질과 경제적효율을 고려하여 정적한 재파쇄회수가 결정되어야 할 것 으로 사료 된다.

High Strength Concrete (HSC) has a disadvantage of the brittle failure under fire due to the spalling. The studies on spalling control method of new constructed HSC buildings were performed enough, but the studies on existing buildings are insufficient. The new inorganic refractory mortar is developed in this study. The insulating capacity is enhanced by using light weight fine aggregate and polypropylene (PP) fiber. In results of material test, the thermal conductivity of light weight fine aggregate get lower than general fine aggregate. And in results of column test, the fire resisting time is delayed 20 minutes by using light weight fine aggregate, 10 minutes by increasing finishing depth from 10 mm to 20 mm and 4 minutes by using 0.6 % PP fiber.

In this study, powered superplasticizer(PSP) agents to improve the slump loss rate of recycled aggregate concrete were developed. To evaluate the variation of fluidity against elapsed time and the mechanical properties, twenty four specimens whose main variables had the mixing condition of aggregates, such as natural and recycled gravels, and natural and recycled fine aggregates, were tested. The concrete slump with a liquid superplasticizer greatly decreased against the elapsed time and dropped by less than 50% of initial slump after two hours. However the concrete slump with the PSP agents hardly varied until after half an hour and maintained more than 85% of initial slump even after an hour. Also the PSP agents made the compressive, splitting tensile, and flexural strength of concrete increased and the shrinkage strain decreased. Considering the properties improvement of concrete, it can be recommended that optimum mixing amount of the PSP agents should be 5% of the amount of cement.

The artificial lightweight aggregate was manufactured using stone-dust(SD) and bottom ash(BA) from crushed aggregate manufacture process and thermoelectric power plant respectively. The properties of artificial lightweight aggregate according to mixing ratio of SD and BA was that the density was decreased and the absorption was increased with increasing BA content, because bottom ash was contained many unburned carbon and $Fe_2O_3$ which generates gas by oxidation during a sintering process. The appropriate mixing ratio of SD and BA was estimated at about 5:5. The properties of artificial lightweight aggregate according to addition flux admixture was that it had lower density with increasing of $Na_2SO_4$ content. In this study, we could developed the artificial lightweight aggregate as the bulk density was $1.52g/cm^3$ and water absorption 7.3% under the condition that mixing ratio of SD:BA was 5:5, $Na_2SO_4$, $Fe_2O_3$ 1%, sintering temperature $1,150^{\circ}C$ and sintering time 15mins.

This paper presents experimental research results to evaluate the applicability of chemical neutralization reaction and ultrasonic wave to remove cement paste and mortar attached to the surface of recycled aggregate. In order to derive optimal ultrasonic cleaning efficiency and chemical neutralization reaction, experiments were conducted using variables such as ultrasonic frequency and type of chemical solution. As a result, the optimal frequency was found to be 24 kHz, and immersion in a 15% hydrochloric acid solution for 30 minutes of stimulation showed the highest efficiency. In addition, the specific gravity, absorption rate, and wear rate of the quality-improved recycled coarse aggregate were similar to those of general aggregate and were found to satisfy all KS F 2527 standards. Therefore, it is believed that the recycled aggregate whose quality has been improved through the method proposed in this study can be used for concrete.

The high-flowing concrete requires additionally or excessively more expensive admixture than conventional concrete. So, the concrete has not to be widely used in practical field due to the increase of production price, need of additional facilities, and excessive development of concrete strength in associate with addition of too much cementitious material even though it has more significant advantages than conventional concrete. Thus, this study aims at developing high-flowing concrete with general strength unlike high strength which has been carried out in conventional study. To observe the role of aggregate in the concrete quantitatively and to increase the performance of high-flowing concrete effectively, parametric studies were carried out such as W/C, s/a, fineness modulus of aggregate, contribution degree of particle sizes, and the effect of 13mm aggregate and fine stone powder as a partial replacement of aggregates. And the effect of these factors on performance of the concrete was evaluated by measuring slump-flow and gap of penetration height in U-typed instrument. As a result, it was found that flowability of high-flowing concrete depends upon grading of fine aggregate more significantly than that of coarse aggregate and is enhanced greatly as fineness modulus of fine aggregate decreases and the value of s/a increases. In addition, the application of 13mm aggregate and fine stone powder are expected as a partial replacement of aggregate in order to increase the performance of high-flowing concrete more effectively.

The batch and column experiments were performed to overcome the limitation of the neutralization process using the $scCO_2$-water-recycled aggregate, reducing its treatment time to 3 hour. The waste cement mortar and two kinds of recycled aggregate were used for the experiment. In the extraction batch experiment, three different types of waste mortar were reacted with water and $scCO_2$ for 1 ~ 24 hour and the pH of extracted solution from the treated waste mortar was measured to determine the minimum reaction time maintaining below 9.8 of pH. The continuous column experiment was also performed to identify the pH reduction effect of the neutralization process for the massive recycled aggregate, considering the non-equilibrium reaction in the field. Thirty five gram of waste mortar was mixed with 70 mL of distilled water in a high pressurized stainless steel cell at 100 bar and $50^{\circ}C$ for 1 ~ 24 hour as the neutralization process. The dried waste mortar was mixed with water at 150 rpm for 10 min. and the pH of water was measured for 15 days. The XRD and TG/DTA analyses for the waste mortar before and after the reaction were performed to identify the mineralogical change during the neutralization process. The acryl column (16 cm in diameter, 1 m in length) was packed with 3 hour treated (or untreated) recycled aggregate and 220 liter of distilled water was flushed down into the column. The pH and $Ca^{2+}$ concentration of the effluent from the column were measured at the certain time interval. The pH of extracted water from 3 hour treated waste mortar (10 ~ 13 mm in diameter) maintained below 9.8 (the legal limit). From XRD and TG/DTA analyses, the amount of portlandite in the waste mortar decreased after the neutralization process but the calcite was created as the secondary mineral. From the column experiment, the pH of the effluent from the column packed with 3 hour treated recycled aggregate kept below 9.8 regardless of their sizes, identifying that the recycled aggregate with 3 hour $scCO_2$ treatment can be reused in real construction sites.

An experimental study for manufacturing lightweight aggregates from sewage sludge ash of sewage treatment facilities was carned out in senses of sludge disposal and utilization. In case of SA alone, aggregates with S.G. 1.67 was obtained at sintering temperature of $1250^{\circ}C$, and heating rate affects little to volume expansion rate and volume expansion rate was decreased more or less by heating time. In case of adding 10 wt% of RFCC to SA, lightweight aggregates with S.G. 1.07 was obtained and volume expansion rate was increased by heating time. The optimum adding amounts of RFCC to manufacture lightweight aggregates was 10wt% and the condition that shows maximum volume expansion rate was $20^{\circ}C/min$ of heating rate, $1250^{\circ}C$ of sintering temperature and 50 mmutes of heating time. According to adding amounts of RFCC, Compressive strength of sample results in 30 wt% RFCC>SA>20 wt% RFCC>10 wt% RFCC.
