Recently, interest in eco-friendly structure has been increased and many researches about hwang-toh are being actively processed. However, most researches are about material properties of hwang-toh, and researches about structural performance are insufficient. Moreover, the usability of activated hwang-toh is being identified in some ways, but its use rate is low in economic aspect in reality. Non-activated hwang-toh is expected to be advantageous in respect of economy but its material and structural performance have not been identified. Therefore, the effect of activated hwang-toh and non-activated hwang-toh on flexural capacity of hwang-toh concrete beam is analyzed in this research.

In this paper, the applicability of Hwangtoh, as an alternative of cement paste, is investigated for the solution of internal heat and shrinkage caused by the hydration of cement paste. Several small-sized specimens of Hwangtoh and ordinary portland concrete (OPC) were compared as to compressive strength, heat of hydration, and shrinkage strain. Moreover, the applicability to the construction structures was reviewed through the test of large-size specimens. The 28-day compressive strength of Hwangtoh concrete (HBC), ranged 18 to 33 MPa, can reach that of OPC. Not only the maximun internal temperature of HBC was read about 1/4 of OPC as it is cured, but also its shrinkage decreased more than the OPC did. Therefore, Hwangtoh binder is more favorable than cement binder in terms of its hydration heat and shrinkage under the construction of concrete.

Since artificial building materials and environmental contamination are getting worse recently, people has been interested in eco-friendly construction. In addition, the problems like Sick Building Syndrome are issued these days. In order to solve these problems, the reuse of building materials and the development of environment-friendly materials are urgently in demand. In this sense, Hwangtoh is in the limelight as the environment-friendly material, and broad studies on it have been in progress. However the reactivity of Hwangtoh is low, and without activation process it is very hard to use it as a building material. This study examined the usability of Hwangtoh as an environmental building material by experimenting the reactivity of inactivated Hwangtoh with Reaction Induction Material.

Hwangto would be an environment-friendly material that can be readily used. The purpose of this study is to obtain the absorption ratio, ultrasonic pulse velocity and neutralization of the mortar with non-active Hwangto and stone dust. The absorption ratio and neutralization depth are increased with increase of non-active Hwangto. But, the ultrasonic pulse velocity is decreased with increase of non-active Hwangto. In results of SEM analysis, the crystals are increased with increase of non-active Hwangto.

The purpose of this study is to obtain the basic data for the development of construction material products using non-active Hwangto and stone dust. The test result shows that the unit weight is in the range of 2,050~2,135 kg/m$^3$, the compressive strength is in the range of 107~451 kgf/cm$^2$, the bending strength is in the range of 23~81 kgf/cm$^2$ and the dynamic modulus is in the range of 137$\times$10$^3$~318$\times$10$^3$ kgf/cm$^2$. Also, it is decreased with increase using the non-active Hwangto and stone dust, respectively. The incorporation of non-active Hwangto for cement is possible to 40% in strength.
