Re-damage is frequently occurring for various reasons, including material factors, external factors, and factors caused by poor construction in concrete cross-section restoration work, so it is necessary to identify the cause and improve it. Cement-based materials are the most commonly used maintenance materials for concrete structures, and in particular, additional cross-sectional restoration work may be carried out due to re-damage such as cracks and excitement due to dry contraction of the repair material. In this study, a basic study was conducted to identify the characteristics of concrete while diversifying the maximum dimensions and assembly rate of thick aggregates to examine the effects of using thick aggregates in repair materials. As a result, the slump of concrete increased as the maximum size of thick aggregates increased, and the amount of air content was measured 1.88 to 2.35 times higher in the mixing using aggregates with a maximum aggregate size of 5 mm or more compared to the mixing group with a maximum aggregate size of 10 mm or more. It was found that compressive strength was greatly affected by the performance rate of thick aggregates. The compressive strength was measured the highest in the mixture using thick aggregates with the highest performance rate of 20 mm, and the compressive strength of the mixture with the lowest performance rate was more than 45%. As a result of the dry shrinkage measurement, the dry shrinkage was the lowest as the performance rate of the thick aggregate increased according to the change in the maximum dimensions and assembly rate of the thick aggregate, and the lowest performance rate was the largest in the mix. Through this study, it was confirmed that adjusting the particle size by diversifying the maximum dimensions and assembly rate of thick aggregates used in concrete structure repair materials can improve strength and workability and reduce dry shrinkage.

This study is to examine the influence of defective grain shape of coarse aggregate and lowered fineness modulus of fine aggregate on the characteristics of high flowing concrete. The flow ability and compact ability of high flowing concrete was examined using fine aggregate, varying its fineness modulus to 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, and 3.5, and coarse aggregate with before and after grain shape improvement. Also the influence of fineness modulus of fine aggregate and grain shape of coarse aggregate on dispersion distance of particles of aggregate was examined by relatively comparing the dispersion distance between particles of aggregate. According to the experimental result, minimum porosity when mixing fine aggregate and coarse aggregate was shown in order of fineness modulus of fine aggregate, 3.0, 2.5, 2.0, 3.5, regardless of the improvement of grain shape. So when the fineness modulus is bigger or smaller than KS Standard $2.3\~3.1$, the porosity increased. When the spherical rate of the grain shape of coarse aggregate unproved from 0.69, a disk shape to 0.78 sphere shape, the rate of fine aggregate, which represents minimum porosity, decreased $6\%$ from $47\%\;to\;41\%$. The 28 days compressive strength according to fineness modulus of fine aggregate increased about 3 ma as the fineness modulus increased from 2.0 to 2,5, and 3.0. However, the 28 days compressive strength decreased about 9 ma at 3.5 fineness modulus as compared with 3.0 fineness modulus. The improvement of grain shape in coarse aggregate and increase of fineness modulus in fine aggregate made the flow ability, compact ability, and V-rod flowing time improve. Also the fineness modulus of fine aggregate increased the paste volume ratio when a higher value was used within the scope of KS Standard $2.3\~3.1$.

In this study, the mechanical properties of concrete with recycled coarse aggregate (RG) selected by multi-stage wind pressure (MSWP) treatment were evaluated. After evaluating the basic properties of natural and recycled coarse aggregates, the mechanical performance of the recycled coarse aggregates concrete was experimentally investigated. As a result, it was found that the MSWP technique could improve the fundamental properties such as density and water absorption of RG. In addition, the concrete with RG selected by MSWP showed a better mechanical performance, indicating a higher strength values, surface electric resistivity and a lower absorption. Thus, it seems that the MSWP technique can be effective for the production of high-quality RG.

In this study, it was determined that it was necessary to consider the replacement rate when applying recycled coarse aggregate to concrete, so data on existing research trends and results were collected and the mechanical properties of concrete according to the replacement rate of recycled coarse aggregate were analyzed. In collecting data on recycled coarse aggregate, data without processes such as compressive strength and removal of residual mortar attached to recycled coarse aggregate were collected among the concrete measurement items. In the case of concrete with 50 % and 100 % replacement of recycled coarse aggregate, it was confirmed that the mechanical properties were lower or higher than ordinary concrete by -36.0 ~ 9.9 % and -40.0 ~ 10.4 %, respectively, on average. Accordingly, it is judged that additional water should be mixed in consideration of the absorption rate when mixing, and the replacement rate of recycled coarse aggregate, which has mechanical properties of 80 % or more compared to ordinary concrete, should be less than 50 %.

Recently, natural aggregate was adequate to supply the demand due to increase of building construction. National pollution induced by construction waste caused by the reconstruction and redevelopment was cited as the major social issues in Korea. Therefore, government are required by law to use the recycled aggregate. In order to consider safety, KS F 2573 recommend that recycled aggregate with below design strength 27MPa and replacement ratio of 30%. This study on flexural behaviors of reinforced concrete beam was conducted and the specimens employed in test were planed with high strength concrete (40, 50 and 60MPa) and recycled aggregate replacement ratio (0, 30, 50, 100%). Although the flexural strength of reinforced concrete beam has trendy to decrease with increase of replacement ratio, it is meet to KCI 2007. The comparison results show that reinforced concrete beam using recycled aggregate can apply as flexural member in building construction.

Plastic wastes generated from household waste are separated by mixed discharge with foreign substances, and recycling is relatively low. In this study, the effect of the ratio and content of mixed plastic waste coarse aggregate(MPWCA)s and mixed plastic waste fine aggregate(MPWFA)s filled with blast furnace slag fine powder on the slump and compressive strength of concrete was evaluated experimentally. The MPWCAs were found to have a similar fineness modulus, but have a single particle size distribution with a smaller particle size compared to coarse aggregates. However, the MPWFAs were found to have a single particle size distribution with a larger fineness modulus and particle size compared to fine aggregates. Meanwhile, the effect of improving the density and filling pores by the blast furnace slag fine power was found to be greater in the MPWFA compared to the MPWCA. As the amount of the mixed plastic waste aggregate(MPWA)s increased, the slump and compressive strength of concrete decreased. In particular, the lower the slump and compressive strength of concrete was found to decrease the greater the amount of MPWFA than MPWCA when the amount of MPWA was the same. This is because of the entrapped air and voids formed under the angular- and ROD-shaped aggregates among the MPWFAs. On the other hand, the addition of the admixture and the increase in the unit amount of cement were found to be effective in improving the compressive strength of the concrete with MPWAs.

This study evaluates the shear performance of reinforced concrete beams with recycled coarse aggregates. A total of six specimens with various replacement ratios of recycled coarse aggregates (0%, 50%, and 100%) and different amount of shear reinforcement were cast and tested in this study. A finite element analysis was performed to predict the shear behavior of the specimens with natural or recycled coarse aggregates. The FE analysis was performed using a two-dimensional nonlinear FE analysis program based on the disturbed stress field model (DSFM), which is an extension of the modified compression field theory (MCFT). Experimental results showed that the specimens with 50% and 100% replacement ratios of recycled coarse aggregates had the similar shear strength compared to the specimen with natural aggregates, regardless of the replacement ratios of recycled coarse aggregates and the amount of the shear reinforcement. Furthermore, the comparison between experimental and analytical results showed that the proposed numerical modeling methods and the analytical model, DSFM, can be successfully used to predict the shear behavior of reinforced concrete beams with recycled coarse aggregates.
