This study proposed mix proportions of early strength pavement concrete for large size area using calcium nitrate. Therefore, we used type III cement with calcium nitrate. Laboratory tests conducted to air content, slump loss test, setting time test, compressive strength test and flexural strength test. Our early strength pavement concrete mixture proportion proposed in this study for large size area attained the required compressive strength of 21 MPa and a flexural strength of 3.8 MPa, which allowed it to be opened to traffic within 8 hours. Based on test results, we suggested optimum mix proportions of early strength pavement concrete for large size area using calcium nitrate.

Abrams equation could be effectively applied to predict strength of cement-admixed clay and clay-water content to cement content ratio is a fundamental parameter for governing strength. This paper analyses unconfined compression strength varying with $w_c/C$ and curing time using laboratory test results. An attempt is made to identify strength of composite soil of cement and clay according to variation of Abrams coefficients and curing time. The value B, which was considered to be constant value in past researches, needs to be considered as parameter variable with curing time. From Abrams equation a correlation was formed for unconfined compression strength with mixing conditions by $w_c/C$ and curing time as dependent variable. Regression results in this paper could be used to predict strength of cement-admixed clay at various mixing conditions.

For the design of concrete structures in the serviceability limit state, the uniaxial static modulus of elasticity may be a most important parameter. In particular, this may be so just for a deflection control of the structure. Even in new concrete codes, however, the elastic modulus is normally presented on the form of general empirical relationships with the compressive strength and density of concrete. Normally, there is a large uncertainty associated with the general equations obtained by regression. Thus, in a typical plot of static modulus of elasticity vs. compressive strength, a large scatter can be observed at same strength. The aim of this study is to present the method for obtain the maximum modulus of elasticity at same compressive strength. In the present paper report the effects of mix ingredients on the modulus of elasticity of high-strength concrete. The test of 284 cylinder specimens arc conducted for type I with 11 ％ replacement of fly-ash cement concretes. Different water-hinder ratio, amounts of water and coarse aggregate as variables were investigated. And also analyzed it statistically by using SAS.

To study the effect of foaming agent on the production and property of light weight concrete, the tests of compressive, tensile, bending strengths and absorption rates of mortar were done under the different mixing ratio with J, A and D foaming agents. The results obtained were summarized as follows : 1. The strengths were decreased in richer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. The decrease of strengths was the greatest at the level of 0.75% of foaming agent. The decreasing rate of strengths was in order of J, A and D foaming agent. 2. At the mixing ratio of 1:1, ${\sigma}_{28}$ and 0.75% of foaming agent, the compressive strength was decreased up to 34.9% by D, 47.8% by A and 86.8% by J foaming agent, respectively, the tensile strength was decreased up to 14.8% by D, 20.2% by A and 77.9% by J foaming agent, respectively, bending strength was decreased up to 19.9% by D, 35.0% by A and 79.1% by J foaming agent, respectively. The decrease of compressive strength was more severe than that of tensile and bending strengths. 3. The absorption rates were increased in poorer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. The absorption rate was significantly higher at the early stage of immersed water. The absorption rate was in order of J, A and D foaming agent. 4. The decrease of strengths was inevitable in cement-mortar with foaming agent, but the cement mortar with foaming agent has such the properties of the light-weight, lnsulation, Keeping-warmth, sound proof and fire-proof that if could be utilized to the constructions which need low strengths.

The cold weather concrete poured in the winter season can cause the problem of the Due to recent high-rise building is made. In this research, the nominal mix of the early strength in concrete tried to be set through the mixing proportion experiment for each empirical variable and each component strength properties for the early strength improvement tries to be examined. In the cold weather concrete experiment, the cement and high early strength (type3) cement improving in OPC than OPC was excellent. The polycarboxylic acid based compound was exposed to be excellent in the intensity revelation properties. Because the using of the fly ash was disadvantageous it was excluded from this experiment. It showed the optimum temperature for the intensity revelation up over $12^{\circ}C$.

In this study, an influence of mixing ratio among firing oyster shell, non-firing oyster shell, magnetic separated converter steel slag and fly ash used as admixtures on strength properties of soil cement was evaluated by correlation analysis among compressive strength, deformation modulus and mixing ratio of admixtures. As a result, the strength of the specimens containing non-firing oyster shells was found to be larger than that of firing oyster shells, and it was confirmed that firing oyster shells could negatively affect the strength of soil cement specimens unlike previous studies. In addtion, there was a positive correlation between the ratio of magnetic separated converter slag and strength properties, so it is confirmed that it can be used as an admixture.

The strength of concrete is developed by cement hydration reaction influenced by the circumferential temperatures. In this study, therefore, the experiments are conducted and evaluated about the characteristics as changes of early concrete placing temperature and curing temperature to understand the effects of the temperature which influences concrete properties. The results of the experiments changing the early concrete placing temperature in 5$^{\circ}C$ and 10$^{\circ}C$ are followed. In case of conducting standard concrete curing, early compressive strength development rate of the concrete which had low placing temperature was low, but it was shown that early compressive strength development rate was not affected by low placing temperature in age 28 days of concrete. In case of conducting outdoor curing in winter, early compressive strength development rate of the concrete which had high placing temperature was high in all test specimens. As a results, early compressive strength development of concrete was influenced by temperature of early concrete, but after aging 28 days of concrete, it was influenced by curing temperature rather than temperature of early concrete.

Polymer cement slurry (PCS) made from organic polymer dispersion and cement has good adhesion to steel, waterproofness and acid resistance due to being of polymer films formed in cement slurry. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the mix design conditions at early curing age of PCS-coating material effected on improvement in bond strength of coated rebar. The test pieces are prepared with two types of polymer dispersions such as St/BA and EVA, four polymer-cement ratios, two types of cement, four coating thicknesses and three curing ages, and tested for the bond strength test. From the test results, in general, bond strength of PCS-coated rebar is better than that of uncoated rebar and epoxy-coated rebar. It is also high bond strength at curing ages of 7-day or less, and coating thicknesses of $75{\mu}m$ and $100{\mu}m$. The maximum bond strength of PCS-coated rebar at curing age of 3-hour is almost same as that of curing age of 1-day and 7-day. The maximum bond strength of PCS-coated rebar with ultra high-early strength cement and St/BA at polymer-cement ratio of 80%, and coating thickness of $100{\mu}m$ is about 1.52 and 1.58 times respectively, the strength of uncoated rebar and epoxy-coated rebar. It is apparent that the curing age, coating thickness, type of polymer and cement are very important factors to improve the bond strength of PCS-coated rebar to cement concrete. We can have basic information that PCS-coated rebar with curing age at 3-hour and coating thickness of $100{\mu}m$ can replace epoxy-coated rebar.
