Although bonding material content of the high strength flowing concrete is very important in engineering properties, in rich mix concrete increasing the bonding material content may not follow more good properties. This study is to investigate the influence of the bonding material content affecting on the engineering properties of high strength flowing concrete, and this paper is to analyze the properties of fresh concrete. The results reveal that concrete of less bonding material content has about the same good consistency as concrete of more bonding material content, and that the evaluation methods of workability have to change in high strength flowing concrete.

Although bonding material content of the high strength flowing concrete is very important in engineering properties, in rich mix concrete increasing the bonding material content may not follow more good properties. This study is to investigate the influence of the bonding material content affecting on the engineering properties of high strength flowing concrete, and this paper is to analyze the properties of hardened concrete. The results reveal that the strength of concrete having loss bonding material content is higher than that of concrete having more bonding material content, and that in proportion to increasing of concrete strength brittleness factors decrease, and that the static modulus of elasticity in this study is less than that in specification.

The present study prepared lightweight foam-soil concrete mixtures classified into three groups. Considering the sustainablility, workability, and compressive strength development of such concrete, high-volume supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) were used as follows: 20% cement, 15% fly ash, and 65% ground granulated blast-furnace slag. As main test parameters selected for achieving the compressive strength of 1MPa and dry density of $1,000kg/m^3$, the unit solid content (dredged soil and binder) ranged between 900 and $1,807kg/m^3$, and soil-to-binder ratio varied between 3.0 and 7.0. Test results revealed that the flow of the lightweight foam-soil concrete tended to decrease with the increase of unit soil content. The compressive strength of such concrete increased with the increase with the unit binder content, whereas it decreased as soil-to-binder ratio increased, indicating that the compressive strength can be formulated as a function of its dry density and soil-to-binder ratio.

Generally, high performance concrete has characteristics such as low water-cementitious material ratio, lots of unit binder powder, thus the heat of hydration, autogenous shrinkage are tend to be increased. This study is to investigated the effect of the expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent on the shrinkage properties of high performance concrete as a study to develop the reduction technology of the concrete shrinkage. Test results showed that the expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent were effective the reduction of shrinkage of high performance concrete. Especially, the using method in combination with expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent was more effective than the separately using method of that. Also, it analyzed that the combination of expansive additive of 5% and shrinkage reducing agent of 1% was the most suitable mixture, considering to the fluidity, strength and shrinkage properties.

A control of chloride diffusion coefficient is very essential for service life of reinforced concrete (RC) structures exposed to chloride attack so that much studies have been focused on this work. The purpose of this study is to derive the intended diffusion coefficient which satisfies intended service life and propose a technique for optimum concrete mixture through genetic algorithm(GA). For this study, 30 data with mixture proportions and related diffusion coefficients are analyzed. Utilizing 27 data, fitness function for diffusion coefficient is obtained with variables of water to binder ratio(W/B), weight of cement, mineral admixture(slag, flay ash, and silica fume), sand, and coarse aggregate. 3 data are used for verification of the results from GA. Average error from fitness function is observed to 18.7% for 27 data for diffusion coefficient with 16.0% of coefficient of variance. For the verification using 3 data, a range of error for mixture proportions through GA is evaluated to 0.3~9.3% in 3 given diffusion coefficients. Assuming the durability design parameters like intended service life, cover depth, surface chloride content, and replacement ratio of mineral admixture, target diffusion coefficient, where exterior conditions like relative humidity(R.H.) and temperature, is derived and optimum design mixtures for concrete are proposed. In this paper, applicability of GA is attempted for durability mixture design and the proposed technique would be improved with enhancement of comprehensive data set including wider range of diffusion coefficients.

Recently, in order to reduce a damage of chloride attack and hydration heat in marine concrete structures, blended cement in mixing the marine concrete is widely used. Long term strength development is distinct in concrete with blended cement and it also has excellent resistance to chloride attack and reduction of hydration heat. However, blended cement has a characteristic of relatively low compressive strength in early age of 28 days. On the other hand, a high level of compressive strength is required in the Standard Specification for marine concrete mix design. Such concrete mix design satisfying Standard Specification is effective to chloride attack but disadvantageous for hydration heat reduction due to large quantity of binder. In this study, the material properties of marine concrete considering water-binder ratio and binder type are experimentally investigated. Through the research results, compressive strength in blended cement at the age of 56 days is similar although it has smaller compressive strength at the age of 28 days compared with result of OPC (ordinary portland cement). Even though blended cement has a large water-binder ratio and small unit of binder content, chloride ion diffusion coefficient is still small and hydration heat is also found to be reduced. For meeting the required compressive strength in Standard Specification for marine concrete at 28 days, the increased unit content of binder is needed but the increased hydration heat is also expected.

In this study, it was investigated compressive strength generation of concrete using high volume mineral admixture obtaining fundamental data for the application of concrete structure in construction field. For this, it was evaluated compressive strength with unit binder contents($310{\sim}410kg/m^3$), replacement ratio of mineral admixture(70~90%), unit water contents($140{\sim}150kg/m^3$) and curing temperature in the normal strength range. Also, after producing mock-up structure, hydration heat and compressive strength generation was evaluated to examine properties in the concrete member. In case of concrete using a large amount of industrial byproducts which was reviewed in this study, it is possible to secure compressive strength more than 24MPa at age 28days with about $13^{\circ}C$ ambient temperature of curing condition and that is considered to be applied to structure at construction site.
