The aim of research is to investigate various physical properties of ultra high strength concrete of 80MPa class using a combination of limestone aggregate and electronic arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregate. For aggregate combinations, granite and limestone are used for coarse aggregate, granite and limestone are also used for fine aggregate. And also, limestone fine aggregate is replaced by electronic arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregate of 25% and 50%. Test results indicated that flowability and compressive strength increased when limestone fine aggregate was used compared to that using granite fine aggregate due to higher modulus of elasticity by limestone. Also substitution of electronic arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregate resulted in a decrease of compressive strength slightly. It is found that the use of electronic arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregate and limestone aggregate would be favorable for reducing the autogenous shrinkage by as much as 9~25%.

The aim of this research is suggesting application method of the wasted rock obtained from the limestone quarry of raw material for cement as a coarse aggregate for high strength concrete after crushing and sieving processes. The wasted rock has been normally wasted because of its low quality as a material for cement production. In this research, the concrete using this wasted limestone coarse aggregate was evaluated the constructability based on the performances of workability, air content, and compressive strength. From the experiment, a favorable performance was achieved with a limestone coarse aggregate for high strength concrete comparing to the high strength concrete using granite coarse aggregate.

암석학적 특징이 다른 골재를 사용할 때 콘크리트의 기본특성에 영향을 골재품질 시험과 함께, 화학분석, X.R.D, D.T-T.G.A S.E.M, 편광현미경, 실체현미경관찰등을 하여 조사하므로서 암질특성과 콘크리트의 기본특성과의 관계를 해석하였다. 연구결과, 운모 또는 점토계 광물과 같은 풍화광물이 혼재하지 않고 거대 결정을 갖ㄴ 화강암계 골재는 풍화 화강암, 안산암, 석회암, 골재에 비해 골재품질이 저조해도 작업성이나 강도특성이 우수하였다. 이는 골재의 표면거칠기와 구형도가 양호해 골재와 시멘트페이스트의 부착력이 강화되기 때문이며 고강도콘크리트제조를 위한 골재의 암질로는 거대 결정으로 구성되고 풍화광물이 없는 암질을 선정하는 것이 중요하다. 결정이 크고 풍화광물(운모, 점토계 고아물)이 혼재되지 않은 화강암 골재를 사용한 고강도콘크리트는 석회암, 안산암 골재를 사용한 콘크리트에 비해 150-200kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$이상의 강도증진과 작업성이 향상되었다.

Recently, duc to highly increased consumption of' ngg~.egatc>s f o ~ . construction. studies have focused on the effective utilization of rock wastes abandoned so far. This study was designed, firstly, to determine t,hc petrological, g'ochemical and mechanical cha~,acte~istics of' crushed limestone aggregates in thc Samhwa district for suitable construction aggregates and, secondly, to offer basic data for cff'ective utilization of low grade limestones. Results of' the petrographic st,udy indicates that the crushed limestone aggregates in the Samhwa district can bo separate4 into two groups, namely f'inc-grained and cowlxcgrained limestones. Dominantly distributed fine-grained limestone containing some dolomite has higher Mgo and $SiO_2$ contents compared to the coarse-graincd limestonr. It, can be classified as medium strength rock by the physical and mcxhanical pi.opertics. I3ased on the size of' mineral grains and chemical compositions, it is suggested that the crushed limestone aggregates in t,his study area would bctkr be u s ~ i for asphalt concr.ctt., road pavement, or railroad ballast materials than for cement concrete.

This research analyzed the mechanical properties of high strength concrete produced by limestone aggregate, and summarized the result as follows: Due to the property of unhardened concrete, slump flow value increased more or less according to the increase in LG replacement, but didn't show a big difference while clear tendency of air content couldn't be found. Due to the property of hardened concrete, there appeared an increase in the rate of compressive strength the more LG replacement increased, and the modulus of elasticity also showed a tendency similar to the increase rate of compressive strength.

As the demand for super tall buildings is currently increased in domestic and foreign countries, some kinds of ultra-high strength concretes are being developed actively. Since the cross section of concrete becomes smaller thanks to such kinds of ultra-high strength concretes, the concrete structures can be much bigger, more gigantic and much ultra-high. And as another benefit which is generated thanks to the enhancement of the durability performance, the maintenance expenses are also saved. However, since low W/B ultra-high concrete has a high possibility that many cracks can occur in the initial period due to the self-shrinkage caused by the self-desiccation as one of the blending characteristics, the problem becomes bigger by influencing the safety of a structure. Therefore, in this study, it is intended to analyze the effects of substituting some limestone-based ultra-high strength mortar with electric arc furnace oxidizing slag fine aggregates on the self-shrinkage of mortar.

This study was performed to analyze test results on drying shrinkage for concrete specimens mixed with various constituents in concrete mixes. Test variables are coarse aggregate types(Limestone, Sandstone, Granite, Andesite, Gneiss), fine aggregate types(natural sand, crushed sand) and cement amounts(normal strength, high strength). Epoxy coating of(U&V-H(A,B)) was applied onto the specimen surface to simulate diverse volume surface ratios(22.2, 40, 85.7, 150, 200, 300) with different specimen sizes. The experiments had been executed during 1,014 days at a condition of $20^{\circ}C$ and relative humidity of 60% in environmental chambers. Test results showed that shrinkage strain from the specimen equivalent to real pavement decreased to 39% compared to the standard specimen recommended by KS. Test results also showed that shrinkage strain of the specimen mixed with Limestone was 56~76% of that with Sandstone, thus Limestone mix seems to be suitable to the concrete pavement.

This study investigated about how much the limestone's volume was changed as time passed while maintaining a certain level of moisture condition in the limestone material for concrete under high temperature. The result is summarized as follows: It was appeared that the limestone material under high temperature emitted some CO₂ resulting from the decarboxylation, so that as the heating temperature was increased, the limestone's length change rate was decreased. In the leave time change after heating the stone, the both conditions of 50% and 100% made the limestone create Ca(OH)₂ using some H₂O. So it was appeared that as time passed, the limestone's length change rate first increased because of its volume expansion, but the rate was reduced after the limestone material was crumbled.

This study investigates the engineering properties of concrete incorporating lime stone crushed fine aggregate(Ls), which has been abandoned about 20% of total production due to the low purity. Test results showed that increase of Ls had favorable fluidity and slightly decreased air content. Bleeding capacity of all specimens was not appeared as those were high strength mixture proportion, but the specimens using more Ls accelerated initial and final setting. For the mechanical properties, specimens incorporating higher ratio of Ls, overall, resulted in increase of compressive strength, and exhibited very small inclined tendency in a dynamic elasticity modulus test In addition, for the durability properties, specimens incorporating higher Ls dramatically decreased a drying shrinkage and showed similar tendency in a frost & thaw test, as well as showing no more change in an accelerated neutralization test from the beginning. In conclusion, as it was confirmed in the experimental test, the high strength concrete applying Ls did not showed any problems in the aspects of engineering properties and mostly exhibited even more excellent quality than the specimens using natural fine aggregate.
