As this study is to test fundamental properties of cement mortars using in Metakaolin. Recently concern is increasing for concrete durability because of an increase in the concrete structure exposed to bad environments. In the event that mineral admixture Added, microstructure will be fined, so durability can be good. Also, the study for new admixture is progressing expect that admixture widely used, for example, silica fume, fly-ash, and slag, etc. Therefore this study is making an experiment on fundamental properties of diversities sample curing at water, sea water, 10% sodium sulfate solution, and magnesium sulfate solution, to compare using for metakaolin with silica fume and fly-ash.

In this research, the mix proportion of the antiwashout underwater concrete with the mineral admixture was evaluated. It can reduce the amount used of the antiwashout admixture (hereinafter referred to as "AWA") and satisfy the properties of concrete. In addition, the review for the difference of the test and practical affairs were conducted. Optimized unit quantity of water of antiwashout underwater concrete and the amount used of AWA was revealed by $190kg/m^3$, 0.9%/W, respectively. In particularly, the mix design is reduced by 5% than the W/B of target strength even though the W and AWA reduced. Therefore, it will have the economical feasibility and qualities including the material separation, resistance characteristic and compressive strength, and etc. The stable value was shown in 1 point of minute passed in the measurement of the turbidity amounts using the turbidimeter after the checker insertion. However, it needs to be reviewed for the interrelationship between turbidity measuring machine and KCI-AD102 standard method. There were no significant differences of compressive strength of specimens in the water depending on the production methods.

The aim of the research is to evaluate the influence of various replacing ratios of supplementary cementitious materials(SCMs) such as fly ash(FA), blast furnace slag(BS), and both FA and BS on general properties including segregation resistance as a powder based high fluidity concrete of normal strength grade with water-to-cement ratio 0.40. Specifically, by replacing the SCMs with low density powders, it was assessed that the decreased segregation resistance due to the decreased viscosity by J-ring test. As a result of the experiment, from the general test, the mixtures with SCMs showed increased segregation resistance by increased viscosity as the references, while some segregation was shown from J-ring test due to the decreased density of fresh state mixture related with the capacity of delivering coarse aggregate.

Concrete is a very useful construction material for the sealing disposal of hazardous substances. In general, mass concrete is applied to these structures. And, the mineral admixtures are recommended for the long term performance. Calcium leaching could be happened due to the contact with pure water in underground structures. Thus, it is needed to evaluate the resistance of calcium leaching for concrete mixed with mineral admixtures. From the test results, the mineral admixtures are effective to the improvement of long term compressive strength and chloride diffusion coefficient in concrete members. When calcium leaching is happened, however, the reduction of compressive strength and chloride penetration resistance is severe than OPC case, the micro pore distribution is adversely affected. Consequently, when the mineral admixtures are applied to underground structures which is exposed to calcium leaching environment, it is desirable to reduce water-to-binder ratio, to expose after the sufficient pozolanic reaction, and to use BFS than FA.

Concrete is a suitable construction material for long-term structure, however, it is needed to understand the calcium leaching damage caused by exposure to underground pure water for a long time. In this paper, it is experimentally investigated that the characteristics of flexural behavior in RC member damaged by calcium leaching degradation. From the test results, when calcium leaching is happened, yielding load and flexural rigidity is reduced, neutral axis depth and displacement is increased. That is, calcium leaching degradation adversely affects RC member performance. And, when the mineral admixture is used in the calcium leaching environment, it is considered that the optimal replacement ratio should be prepared according to the type of mineral admixture.

The durability of marine concrete structure is severely degraded by corrosion due to penetration and diffusion of chloride. So, many researches have been performed to improve the durability in marine concrete structure. In this study, the concrete members mixed with the mineral admixtures(SF and BFS), the epoxy-coated steel, and corrosion inhibitors are prepared, and four-point bending test of specimens are performed to investigate the flexural behaviors and the applicability for marine concrete structure. From the test results, the mineral admixtures and inhibitors are useful for safety against the initial cracking and the bending resistance in specimens. When the durable material is used in specimen, the tensile stress of reinforcing rod was less variable in same bending span length, and the durable member showed a stable behavior. And it is evaluated that the crack spacing is not larger in specimen used the durable material.

In order to efficient use of land and development of human, a lot of research on the utilization of underground space is being progress. For the smooth flow of traffic, in the case of mountainous terrain like our country, construction of the tunnel is rapidly increasing. The NATM method is used mainly in the domestic. And also, a lot of research for the NATM is underway, but aspects of the material are lacking. In this study, therefore, it is to evaluate the properties of durability according to mixing ratio and a kind of mineral admixture for the development of shotcrete performance by using the MATM.

The autogenous shrinkage of high-performance concrete is important in that it can lead the early cracks in concrete structures. The purpose of the present study is to explore the autogenous shrinkage of high-performance concrete with admixture and to derive a realistic equation to estimate the autogenous shrinkage model of that. For this purpose, comprehensive experimental program has been set up to observe the autogenous shrinkage for various test series. Major test variables were the type and contents of admixture and water-cement ratio is fixed with 30%. The autogenous shrinkage of HPC with fly ash slightly decreased than that of OPC concrete, but the use of blast furnace slag increased the autogenous shrinkage. Also, the autogenous shrinkage of HPC is found to decrease with increasing shrinkage reduction agent and expansive additive. A prediction equation to estimate the autogenous shrinkage of HPC with admixture was derived and proposed in this study. The proposed equation show reasonably good correlation with test data on autogenous shrinkage of HPC with mineral and chemical admixture.

The durability of marine concrete structures is severely degraded by corrosion due to seawater attack and diffusion of chloride in concrete. The deduction of durability causes high repair cost for maintenance of marine concrete structure. So, the applicability of high-durable materials is investigated to improve the durability in marine concrete structures. For these, the characteristics of corrosion prevention of marine concrete structures mixed with the mineral admixtures(SF, FA and BFS), the modified steel(stainless and coating steel), and corrosion inhibitors are evaluated using electro-chemical methods. As a results of this study, it is quantified for the effect of promotion of durability by high-durability materials in marine concrete structures.
